Seattle Seahawks: Boye Mafe
Seattle Seahawks: Boye Mafe
September 18, 2024
Boye Mafe is emerging as a key defensive force for the Seahawks, currently ranking second among all NFL players with 15 pressures and leading the league with 11 hurries. In his third season, Mafe's role has evolved, as he is now being asked to drop into coverage more frequently, which has enhanced his productivity. His pressure rate has nearly doubled from the previous season, showcasing his adaptability and growth under Macdonald. Despite his impressive performance, Mafe has yet to receive recognition in PFF's top rankings, partly due to a low pressure-to-sack ratio, but his overall disruptive impact on opposing offenses remains significant. As the season progresses, there's an expectation that he will improve his conversion of pressures into sacks, which will be crucial for the Seahawks' defense.

The Seattle Seahawks Have NFL's Best Pass Rush That Struggles to Finish

The Seattle Seahawks' defense, under Mike Macdonald, is making headlines with its impressive start to the 2024 season, outperforming others in total team pressures.

Despite a notable absence in Uchenna Nwosu and a strong individual performance from Boye Mafe, the challenge remains in converting those pressures into sacks. While Seattle leads with pressures, they're struggling to finish plays on the ground. Upcoming challenges await against the Miami Dolphins, who have shown toughness in protecting their quarterback.
