I have no idea why they didn't try that here. I wonder if the thought was that Seattle would've just sold out with a run-blitz regardless of whether or not you put 4 wide and in that event, Newton's hit as he gets the snap.

Hard to say why he went that route. I don't think there was even an option pitch available to him. Pretty much relied on his guys in the trenches to out-physical a pretty strong defensive front that also had numerical superiority.
