"Clearly, he would be unwise not to rely on the best wide receiver throughout the 2025 season as much as he has been. But that's also a recipe for disaster come Super Bowl time, as the Patriots' defense will surely be ready to do all they can to shut JSN down. That's something that Simms believes is Seattle's biggest weakness going into this game, and it's interesting that more people aren't talking about it."
"During an appearance on "Up & Adams" last week, Simms shared his thoughts on the Seahawks potentially using Smith-Njigba too much on game day and believes they need to incorporate more offensive firepower in the Super Bowl to have a real shot at winning. Considering they also have a guy like Cooper Kupp on the roster, it wouldn't be a bad idea."
The Seahawks rely heavily on Jaxon Smith-Njigba as their primary target in the passing game, creating predictability in offensive play-calling. Overuse of one receiver allows opposing defenses to concentrate coverage and disrupt timing, especially against a playoff-tested Patriots unit. Effective game plans require diversified receiving options and more involvement from other weapons such as Cooper Kupp. Without additional offensive balance, the Seahawks risk having key targets neutralized in the Super Bowl. Momentum shifts toward the defense when an offense becomes one-dimensional. Adjustments that distribute targets and schematic variation increase the probability of sustained drives and scoring opportunities.
