Seahawks Vs. Packers: NFC Championship Preview And Prediction
Offensive Line
Something I have noticed is that the Seahawks O-line gets better as the game goes on, as the opposing team gets worn down by Seattle’s physicality. Marshawn had no room to run against Carolina until he broke out a few explosive plays in the second half. The Seahawks’ line in general still struggles at times to control the line of scrimmage, although the penalty issues have mostly been cleaned up.
Green Bay is lead by All-Pro LG Josh Sitton. RT Bryan Bulaga is also among the best in the league at his postion, and the Packers’ O-line overall had a very successful season. Aaron Rodgers was among the least-sacked QB’s in the league.
Advantage: Green Bay
