Tom Cable: Wilson and Lynch are like 'peanut butter and jelly'
Wednesday night was the Seahawks annual town hall meeting. Offensive line coach Tom Cable took the stand and started to describe how Russell Wilson and Marshawn Lynch work so well together and how each player needs the other one.
“Marshawn needs Russ like Russ needs Marshawn,” Cable said, via ESPN. “It’s like ham and eggs or peanut butter and jelly. They’ve got to have each other for this thing to work. Neither one of them is bigger are greater than the other. And they probably wouldn’t be very good without the other one, to be quite honest with you.”
Although most people probably wouldn't describe Lynch and Wilson as 'peanut butter and jelly', Cable does have a point. Both players are key to the others success. Although their styles are different, the threat that each of them brings allows the other to feed off one another.
“I think our system allows them both to prosper,” Cable said of Wilson and Lynch. “What we all understand as coaches is we really need that dynamic of how one plays off the other. One’s the bruiser [Lynch]. He’s the street brawler. The other guy [Wilson] looks like the artist and they’re both very productive.”
