Owner: Tony Gax - Fan favorite, Tony Gax, is a retired HOF RB. While he was drafted by the Browns in 1975, he left after his 4 year rookie contract and came to Seattle where he completely took and had 10,324 rushing yards to go along with 95 TDs. But what made him so dynamic was his pass catching game in which he had 6,364 yards and 56 TDs. His number 26 hangs in Seattle and after long discussions with Seahawks owner Paul Allen, Gax was able to purchase the Seahawks. Gax is one of the least richest owners in the NFL but with his ability to win over the fans and his experience playing the game, he thinks he can create something special in Seattle.
Offense: Playbook TBD - Gax wants to hire an offensive coordinator the can represent his style of play in the 80's. Incase you don't remember, it was a west coast offense that occasionally takes deep shots to keep the defense honest. This offense use screens heavily which made Gax so effective because it countered stack boxes blitzing.
Defense: Playbook TBD (3-4) - While I loved my QB staying up and giving me the ball, what made my 80's Seahawks so effective was blitzing the h*** outta their QB. Look at today's NFL, even Tom Brady struggles somewhat with an effective blitz. It will take some transitioning to a 3-4 defense as the old regime ran the 4-3.
