Note: I had to edit out multiple plays that dealt with Mafe's versatility, either Rushing the QB or dropping in coverage. The TD he allowed to Robinson against Washington, and a couple other Pass Rush wins. KZfaq cited those plays for usage, so I had to edit them out.

Mafe was shockingly good the moment he stepped on the field for us. Especially effective in sealing the edge and stuffing tackles. He really does everything well and is one of those rare guys that just continues producing the same stats he did in college without any drop off.

The sneak disses about the Ravens blowing out the Seahawks were funny😂.

Coach, outstanding content as usual!! I'm always here for Seahawks videos!! Macdonald seems to be impressing at OTAs, w/focus on teaching and understanding concepts on both offense and defense. At yesterday's open OTA session, buzz was JSN's 5 TDs from Geno Smith against Spoon (with Macdonald saying afterwards that defenders at disadvantage with limitations to contest catches). Seahawks suggestions: • JSN's emergence in the latter half of the year • How Byron Murphy could be used in a Justin Madubuike "type" role as more athletic DT • Bigger DE roles w/Dre'mont Jones supposedly converting to OLB this year and playing on the edge • Macdonald's Defensive system differences between outside corner vs. slot corner, as several smaller CBs on roster - DJ James 170 lbs, UDFA Carlton Johnson 175 lbs, Tre Brown and Spoon around 180 lbs and bigger guys outside like Woolen & Mike Jackson at 210 lbs, etc. Thank you! I am posting on social media!

Love your Seahawks content please keep producing 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Great breakdown of Mafe. It will be interesting to see what difference it makes to also have more strength in the middle of the DL with Murphy.

Good points. After Nwosu went out due to his injury, our edge rush suffered a lot. I think with a healthy Nwosu back, Boye is going to LEAP in his third year under Mike. Plus with Byron Murphy, Jarren Reed, and Leonard Williams in the middle this D line is going to feast.

Love the seahawk vids!

Love it! Excited to see his growth. Seattle has a few players I'd like to see Mike's system. Derick Hall had a tough year from a stats perspective, would be curious if he makes the second year jump+benefits from Mike's coaching

Boye and Uchenna both about to go off this year

Thanks for the video on Mafe. Last year, leading up to the start of regular season, I predicted 2023 would be the Year of Mafe and Colby Parkinson (got a big bag of cash in Free Agency) for the Seahawks. Can't wait to see what MacDonald has planned for Mafe and Uchenna Nwosu this year. Your Ravens were very tough last year, no shame in losing to Mahomes (Brady 2.0). Your defense held Mahomes to 17 points. Hope your offense improved and these two teams meet in the playoffs.

Love this! More Seahawks please! But Ravens are cool too! Go Hawks!

SEA!!!

What a great breakdown keep up the great work 👍

Great content... I'd like to see some Nwosu even though he didn't play much last year of how he would fit in MM defense!! Thank bro !!

ILB situation is bad, but our defense is solid otherwise. We def need our own version of Roquan Smith.

Boye!

Maxwell, nwosu, Taylor, dre Jones, woolen, spoon, k wallace , Jenkins and murphy big year watch along with tyrice knight

Great analysis... do you think they will be able to fully implement / have all the players fully understand this defence for opening day or will it take a portion of the season?

Bird Teams flock together. caw caw!

I love Mafe and expect him to take another step forward this yearm my big question is what Mike MacDonald means by "Dre'Mont has a new cool role". Dre has been training to play more OLB. What are your thoughts on what could be going on?

They left him unblocked on the majority of the bootlegs, either bad play design or poor execution because any edge or DE with discipline isnt going to pursue the play to the opposite side that hard and give up contain until they filly tecognize the play.
