As line shuffles, have Fleury and Darnold already fixed offense?

The Seattle Seahawks are revamping their offensive line following the acquisition of All-Pro guard Quenton Nelson via trade and an encouraging win against the Kansas City Chiefs. Offensive coordinator Brian Fleury and quarterback Sam Darnold have reportedly addressed core offensive struggles ahead of an upcoming Monday night matchup against the Chicago Bears. The adjustment comes as Grey Zabel shifts to the right side to accommodate Nelson, while Josh Jones fills in for the injured Charles Cross.

Chawktalk argues that Seattle's offensive turnaround relies heavily on Fleury scaling back the playbook and Darnold limiting costly turnovers. Fleury simplified concepts by utilizing quicker releases, two-back personnel, and heavy targets for wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. With Seattle holding a 15-0 record since last season when committing no more than one turnover, the outlet contends that disciplined ball security will determine their continued success as the reshuffled line builds chemistry.
