This is the beginning of the wheels coming off. When Wilsons contract is up, either he goes or Pete goes. It'll be Pete. Yeah he just signed a 5 year extension, but that was due to Jody and her lackeys having no interest or knowledge of the game and that bought them some time to figure out what they want to do moving forward. I expect the team to be sold in the next couple years.

It's a definitely a good strategy.

When word gets out you are not happy, it gives the general impression that your great, everybody else sucks.

Just a ploy to get Seattle to make major moves with that OL. It is crazy it hasn’t been addressed for most of his career in Seattle

This has become an annual story that is based on absolutely nothing.

The Seahawks are not trading Wilson. 0% chance of that happening.

I agree this is just a way to push them to focus on OL. The Hawks have made moves to address the OL. They just haven't always been good moves.

Not that I think RW is going anywhere but Rodgers isn't happy in GB.
Actually, he came out and declared he is.

He wants a contract extension or redone, can't remember which.

PR move

Wanting an extension or redone contract doesn't scream confidence

It has been addressed plenty, but either they havent taken the right guy or developed people properly. Major blindspot in the PC/JS era

It is but at the same time PC and Russ are basically a forced marriage at this point due to Schneiders love of Russ. Pretty surprised its lasted this long at this point

One has to ask again though, where would he want to go if he is earnest about the OL schtick and not just using that as an excuse to bail if this is true? Washington maybe? Indy?

How is he using that as an excuse? He's had 9 straight winning seasons with the most wins by any QB during those 9 years.

And that's while he's been running for his life behnd subpar O-lines for years.

Non story because he's not going anywhere this season.

But I don't think Wilson and Carroll exactly are lock and step with each other these days either. Lie detector them both and I'd say Carroll isn't thrilled that he's paying a guy top dollar when he just wants a guy to hand the ball off and manage the game while Wilson isn't thrilled at Carroll's approach to offense and the inability to increase the talent level on that side of the ball as well.

My prediction is if Carroll is still around Wilson doesn't get another contract extension with the team and he'll look to unload Wilson for a massive haul of picks. So Wilson will be a Seahawk in 21 and 22 but I don't think he'll be one in 23.

This is a possibility .... It’s hard to believe he’s been with Seattle for almost 10 years now, time fly’s ... Russ has been a solid player, I could see some teams going after him aggressively .... Would suck to see him leave, but all era’s come to an end at some point ....

We know Wilson isn’t going anywhere for awhile.

Pretext, excuse, whatever.

Don't care.

I don't assign any moral value to it here.

The weeks before and after the SB is a 4 weeks long April Fool's day in the NFL. This is just one of those stories.
