The 2005 season \u2013 which culminated in a Super Bowl XL loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers \u2013 was so good for Seattle because of lineman such as Sean Locklear, Robbie Tobeck, Walter Jones, and Steve Hutchinson. <\/p>\n CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE TOP CAPPERS FOR NFL FOOTBALL BETTING THIS SEASON —–><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n The team had the anchors up front who make a quarterback stay up on his own two feet, and enable a running back to look good as he busts through holes in a defensive front.<\/p>\n Then the Seahawks decided not to keep Hutchinson, and as a result, the Minnesota Vikings (who now have Hutchinson\u2019s services) have been a consistent playoff team. <\/p>\n The Seahawks? <\/p>\n Well, they\u2019re now getting accustomed to seasons like their dreary march through 2009. Seattle went 5-11 in a season so odious that head coach Jim Mora, Jr. \u2013 installed in a succession plan after Mike Holmgren retired \u2013 was fired by team brass after just one season on the sidelines in the Pacific Northwest.[soliloquy id=”82219″]<\/p>\n It really wasn\u2019t Mora\u2019s fault; it was the fault of an organization whose management decided, after Super Bowl XL, that Walter Jones didn\u2019t need much help along the offensive line. Tobeck retired, Hutchinson went off to Minnesota, Locklear dropped away, and as a result, the Seahawks\u2019 2009 offensive line had no punch or power. <\/p>\n Opposing defensive front tossed aside the Seahawks\u2019 not-so-big uglies in the trenches, and that\u2019s why quarterback Matt Hasselbeck \u2013 who is really good when healthy and surrounded by solid talent \u2013 suffered a rib injury in week two of the season. Hasselbeck spent the rest of 2009 battling his physical limitations, and without a line good enough to blow up holes for the rushing attack, Seattle had no offense whatsoever. <\/p>\n This team was repeatedly shut down and rarely scored anything beyond 24 points in a single game. Interestingly enough, the 5-11 Seahawks won twice against 1-15 St. Louis, once against Detroit, and once against lowly Jacksonville. <\/p>\n Their one quality win came in a 20-17 decision over San Francisco. Yes, that\u2019s what happens when an offensive line is poor. <\/p>\n In 2010, the Seahawks produced a great draft. They started with offensive tackle Russell Okung, a gifted prospect who could make an immediate impact on the offensive line. If Seattle\u2019s line can make real improvements, the addition of playmaking receiver Golden Tate \u2013 in another good draft pick \u2013 might make the Seahawks somewhat respectable on the offensive side of the ball. <\/p>\n New head coach Pete Carroll has his work cut out for him, but in a weak division, an 8-8 or 9-7 record is entirely reachable; what\u2019s more, it could well win a division in which the favorite is a San Francisco team that still stands on shaky ground and has not proven it can attain the next level. <\/p>\n Hasselbeck has to be protected at all costs; if he avoids reckless decision making and gets even a modest amount of help from both his linemen and his receivers, the Seahawks could remain competitive well into the fourth quarter of each and every game they play. <\/p>\n The NFC West won\u2019t be good in 2010, but it does figure to be competitive and hard-fought; if Seattle can win fourth quarters in its division, it could steal the West championship and return to the playoffs. <\/p>\n Realistically, the offensive line, the running game and Carroll are wild cards that we can\u2019t trust quite yet. <\/p>\n Super Bowl Odds: +6550 Place they\u2019ll finish in NFC West: 2nd <\/strong> It’s another season making NFL previews and Super Bowl predictions for the Seattle Seahawks.
