Well Faulk is a former Ram but doesn't seem like the type of guy that would betray Penny's trust.

As in give the playbook to the Rams? The Rams are a divisional opponent. They play Hawks twice a year. Every Rams defensive coach and player can recite that play book verbatim. Hell the Panthers can do that.

From Calkins piece:
When, precisely, Penny pressed the “grow up” button is uncertain. But he pressed the “bounce back” button in Week 4, when he rushed for 49 yards on nine attempts in a win over Arizona. In fact, after those three underwhelming games to start the season, Penny gained 5.8 yards per carry for the rest of the year.

Of course, after gaining 1,147 yards last season, Chris Carson is expected to be the primary ball-carrier for the Seahawks in 2019. But if Penny improves upon his first year, there is little reason to think Seattle can’t lead the NFL in rushing again.

The bulk of the offensive line is back. The run-first mentality is still in place. The Super Bowl-winning strategy is now a staple of “Seahawks football.”

On Thursday, Penny acknowledged Carson’s dynamic talent. He added that he’s been picking up “little details” from his fellow RB and is trying to be his “best friend.”

There may be a little competition in the backfield, but there isn’t any jealousy on Penny’s end. Remember, he’s a true pro.

Yeah, not in my top 100k things I am worrying about at the moment.

Maybe we'll see a re-creation of what of Byner and Mack did in Cleveland.

Could be the best RB tandem since Red Grange and Bronco Nagurski.........

There have been 6 RB duos where both ran for over 1000 yards in a season, but only one where both went over 1100 yards. Maybe Penny and Carson can each go over 1200 yards next season. :o

Both average 75+ a game? Yes, that would be something.

That would certainly open up the play action passing game.

hopefully not at the goal line in the playoffs though. Browns didnt recover, and fans didnt let Byner recover either.
