Seahawks Running Back Position

This coming Seahawks season not

only say how the team does in a

a game we will let you know who

is the player of the game is. If 

fitting on offense and defense.

Throughout the week we will do

profiles on some of the players

to. This will go for the Huskies 

and Cougars as well.

Today going to look at the running

back position. According to head

coach Michael Macdonald the

running back position will be shared

by two. I expect that Kenny Walker 3

will be the starter however Zach 

Charbonnet will get plenty of carries

as well. They may alternate series 

and play in the same series as well.

I am sure there are fans who favor

Walker a lot. Having them share the

load Walker will stay healthier. The carry 

load could be 15 for Walker and 10 or

12 for Charbonnet. This will come down

how the game is going. Both should

receive some catches as well. Most 

likely three per game.

Kenny McIntosh a rookie last year out

of Georgia is the third running back.

The Seahawks have  a few vying for

the spot however they will be mentioned

at another time. McIntosh playing time

will be on special teams for the most 

part. He will be seen taking kickoffs.

Any rushing attempts will likely happen

late in the game if the score is high

on one side or another or if there is

injuries to 1or 2 which we hope not.

During much of Pete Carroll's reign

the priority for the Seahawks was to

run the ball primarily however it

changed to passing if they got down

quickly by the score or were not gaining

ground. We shouldn't expect this under

Michael Macdonald. The running game

will be a major focus however no matter what.

Having a good running game will make

passing game more effective as well.

The Seahawks have a talented group

of receivers as well as offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb who loves 

to mix things up as any Huskies fan

saw. We could see any of the receivers

run the ball too.  The end is expect the

unexpected.

Next time on the Seahawks we will

look at the receivers and after that

we will look at the defense which 

will be an interesting group especially

when we will see a different defense.

Go Hawks!
