Agree, blow it all up.
Not a fan as has been well documented but you don't get rid of a franchise QB. You just don't
Get a new staff and scheme in and protect your asset and see if there is a second chapter
Watch Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson's three most improbable completions from Week 13 of the 2021 NFL season, according to Next Gen Stats.
ESPN: Marcus Spears and Mike Tannenbaum join Max Kellerman on This Just In to discuss if Russell Wilson and Pete Carroll's time in Seattle has come to an end.
NBC Sports: Mike Florio and Mike Golic analyze the Seahawks’ win over their division rival, the 49ers, explain why it was just a matter of time for Seattle to “wake up” and weigh what to expect from Russell Wilson moving forward.
ESPN: Are the Bears better off with Justin Fields than they would be with Russell Wilson? The KJM crew previews the Chicago Bears vs. Seattle Seahawks matchup in Week 16 of the NFL season.
Talkin' Giants: Should Giants trade for Russell Wilson? Bobby and Justin discuss the pros and cons of trading for Russell Wilson and where they both are in terms of their interest level in doing so.
The Rich Eisen Show: Rich Eisen explains why the Seahawks should act quickly if and when they decide to trade Russell Wilson and throw around some possible swap scenarios that include Deshaun Watson or Baker Mayfield in Seattle next season.
NBC Sports: Is Russell Wilson's trade value plummeting amid rumors? Mike Florio and Charean Williams discuss Russell Wilson's future and if he'll be a member of the Seattle Seahawks beyond this season, and if teams will be hesitant to trade assets for a player currently underperforming.
It's not working. It's time to clean house. Don't fire Pete yet, but if he wants to take some cushy front office job for a two years until retirement, don't stop that impulse either. It's time to rebuild though.
Then working their way down to the players on the field via trades, free agency as well as the draft but the brain trust in the front office and on the sidelines is played out and needs to be replaced ASAP.
Since John made that horrible trade for Jamal Adams and lost back to back first round draft picks for an often injured safety he has to make a major off-season move to recoup what he lost.
The Seahawks should keep Russell Wilson but I get the feeling that he may become the fall guy for John Schneider and Pete Carroll's recent failures (on and off of the field) this off-season with multiple number one draft picks coming back in return for Wilson's services elsewhere. Time will tell...
A part of me thinks they should do a hard reset and let long-time vets like RW and Wagner have one last chance to make it back to the SB via trade.
Starting OTs Duane Brown (turns 37 right before the 2022 season starts) and Brandon Shell are FAs. Al Woods will be 35 and a FA. Chris Carson gets hurt too much and Penny will be a FA.
This team has the worst long term outlook in the division currently. For as much shit as Pete and Russ get, Schneider is the core of the problem. He has made so many shit moves since the Super Bowl era that have depleted this roster, and this isn't an overnight fix. He has been putting Band-Aids on a festering wound for years now. Russ needs to be traded for some capital. As bad as he has been this year, he still has a lot of value and some team with a young talented roster that can handle his contract would gladly pay a decent price for win it now scenario. I think Russ can still be decent somewhere but it won't be here. This offensive line isn't going to magically change overnight with 1 or 2 free agent signings and a 5th round OL pick. Let him go somewhere to end his career where winning is still an option while the big rebuild process starts in Seattle. Otherwise it is going to be a long time before the Seahawks are relevant again.
