At a -3-point disadvantage, the Seahawks are underdogs in this week's game, implying more of a reliance on throwing than their usual game plan.Based on their underlying play style and matchup dynamics, the predictive model expects the Seahawks to run on 39.9% of their plays: the 8th-lowest frequency on the slate this week.Geno Smith has averaged a mere 1.0 rush attempts per game this year, one of the lowest rates in the league among QBs (9th percentile).As it relates to executing run-blocking assignments (and the impact it has on all run game statistics), the offensive line of the Seahawks ranks as the 4th-worst in the league last year.
