NFC "UFC" West: 3 Things They Did Well, 3 Needs to Address for Seahawk, Rams, 49ers and Cardinals.

The NFC West "Trench Report": Elite Protections, Imbalanced Fronts, and the Battle Up Front.Let's get into the Trenches in the NFC West and see what the teams like to do or need to work on.We do this bystriping away the skill-position hype to look strictly at last season's raw, unit-level data in the trenches where the game is won and lost.Seattle’s Super Bowl 60 champion defensive front, nicknamed "The Dark Side" (190 DL TPR), dominated opponents to limit them to a meager 3.9 yards per carry and gave up zero rushing touchdowns in the postseason—supported by a highly efficient, top-11 offensive line (109 OL TPR) that paved the way for 125 rushing first downs. The Los Angeles Rams' offensive line, fielded the number-one ranked unit in the league with an elite 163 OL TPR to protect Stafford, balanced against their third-down red-zone struggles (going a brutal 1-for-8 in clutch moments in final game). The Arizona Cardinals managed a resilient 4,306-yard passing game despite pocket protection issues (79 OL TPR) that surrendered 59 sacks, while their defensive front collapsed under high snap volume (42 DL TPR).Plus, the"skipping leg day" team of the division: the San Francisco 49ers, whose elite, fourth-ranked offensive line (132 OL TPR) provided spectacular protection—peaking with a dominant 304 OL TPR and 32 first downs against Chicago—while their unbalanced, injury-riddled defensive line (76 DL TPR) was left struggling as a bottom-tier liability with a league-worst 20 sacks and a run defense allowing 4.4 yards per carry.Delivered with and co-produced alongside the Syracuse University Falk College team, this is the ultimate 7-minute blueprint to the division.
