The Seattle Seahawks have stacked the box vs. opponents on 19.9% of their plays since the start of last season, 7th-most in the NFL. Positioning an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the expense of better passing efficiency.
The Arizona Cardinals have utilized some form of misdirection on just 34.3% of their play-calls since the start of last season (least in the NFL), which likely makes the offense more predictable and less effective.
