Will we see more of Marshawn Lynch?
Seahawks coach Pete Carroll made it clear that veteran running back Marshawn Lynch has the entire playbook at his disposal, which could open him up to a larger share of the offense on Sunday.
“He can do everything we’re doing,” coach Pete Carroll said on Friday. “He’s got the whole game plan.”
Of course, Seattle still plans to run the ball primarily through rookie Travis Homer, who carried the ball 10 times for 62 yards in Week 17 while also hauling in five receptions for 30 additional yards.
So, Lynch may not be on track for 20 carries and 100+ rushing yards, but about half of that and another touchdown certainly seems plausible, and it would no doubt send the 12’s into a frenzy to see Beast Mode score a touchdown in the playoffs.
