It's okay to get away from play action passing in my opinion, because trying to establish the run is only going to cost us crucial downs. We can still attack on the ground with draws, but only if they are set up by an intermediate passing game.
We simply don't have that type of offense. If we are put in a situation where we are throwing 40+ times this week we're going to get beat. Heyer and Fabini will not hold up. Seattle has a small front 7. We need to be able to run the ball this week.

I think Heyer and Fabini are good enough to consistently block the guy in front of them. That alone is going to give you a lot of good quality chances to make plays in the passing game.

A running game would be nice, but I can't see how we can get all of Seattle's front seven blocked.
