Before the arrival of Carlos Dunlap in the Cincinnati Bengals business last month, the Seattle Seahawks were able to handle a total of 12 sacks in the first seven games of the season.
Since Dunlap’s acquisition, the Seahawks have had 13 sacks with Dunlap in the lineup alone in the last three games.
“Yes, let me be clear. It is clear that this has had an effect, “said head coach Pete Carroll on Tuesday. “He hits the pile, pulls back the face and just makes some lanes for other guys so he can contribute to other people’s crowds as well. We’ve taken it a step further with everything we’ve been doing and it has helped our people. “
Dunlap already has its 3.5. The sac sacks are picked up and he leads all the defensive linemen of the team into the sack, which is just behind the .5..5 sacks of safety Jamal ams dams. Sihak also made his two best defensive appearances in the last two games in the series against the Los Angeles Rams and Arizona Cardinals as Dunlap served as a catalyst for improved effort.
Adams also helps recover after a three-game absence due to a groin injury. As Rashim returns to green rotation after missing six games due to Stinger, the depth and versatility of the team was further enhanced. But it’s hard to see anywhere except for Dunlap’s presence as a turn for the group.
Dunlap sealed the fourth-place win from Keller Murray’s bag by beating Calvin Beach, leading the seventh in the final minute Thursday night against the Arizona Cardinals. Seattle was in the bottom quarter of the league in sack output during the first eight weeks of the year. He is now tied with the Cardinals and the New York Giants in 11 with 25 sacks.
“They said I came here to save the rush but I see we people stay healthy and all these people are getting sacks. It’s not like I got the whole thing. [13], ”Dunlap said after the game on Thursday night.
“You know, this team is very exciting. I’m happy to be a part of what I can’t tell you. You know more ways than anyone I can’t go into more detail but I say it’s super surreal, it’s refreshing. I feel relaxed, rejuvenated. “
That enthusiasm has also been contagious for the Seahawks.
Carol said, “She has time in her life. “She is OK. He’s been upbeat and enthusiastic and having fun with it and getting out and representing in work and practice, rather than being willing to do anything. I mean, that’s all. He is practicing really well. Got a really fun personality that is fun. He’s having a good time so if you haven’t, you know if you’re not around him, when you go around him, you’ll see. It brings a good feeling to him and his attitude is excellent because he has so much fun. He is different from the one around him. “
