So if you're going to match with lighter bodies to these multiple tight end sets, in theory, offenses should be able to run the ball more efficiently.

I think the charge of defenses is make them do it.

Make them show you that they can run the ball and establish themselves that way before you start matching it with heavy bodies and allow them to throw the ball all over the yard.

And that's the magic of what Seattle did last year, is that even when the Rams were playing three tight ends at once, the Seahawks were still playing nickel because they're like, we're not going to let you dictate the game to us that way.

And I think that's the goal.

That's the goal.

If you're a defensive coaches, no matter what the offense is doing personnel wise, can you try to make sure that you are the one playing the way that you want to?

Who is dictating the way the game is going to go in the way the game is going to feel?

I think that's become one of the most important questions in any single game.

And it's one of the most important big picture trends about the league.

I would say three guys jump out.

McDonald is number one with the bullet.

Like Mike is he is a special, special defensive coach.

I think he is the defensive answer to what McVay has been offensively over the last 10 years or so.

I truly do think he is that different.

And I think when you talk to offensive coaches who play against him, they have the same opinion.

And again, Mike is they didn't play base defense last year.

They just refuse to do it.

And so their ability to play how they want all the time is one of the really magical things the Seahawks can do.

So he's number one.
