The Seattle Seahawks usually have 3 Wide Receivers and 1 Tight End on most of their offensive plays. That allows for great flexibility in what plays can be called and what pass protections can be utilized. On a passing play, a team can decide whether to keep both the tight end and the running back in pass protection or send both out into the route, depending on what look the defense shows. Additionally, with the tight end present, the team can run the ball either toward the strength of the formation or away from it, depending on the front shown by the defense.

The Seahawks’ defense is usually a 4-3 hybrid with 3-4 personnel. The defense has a four down line. This defensive principle is more of a three-man lineman. The 4-3 features four down linemen and three linebackers (and, also, the four defensive backs).
