Pete should have retired a couple of years ago.
That's your off the wall O-P-I-N-I-O-N.
My O-P-I-N-I-O-N is, that Pete is likely grooming his replacement, because IF I'm Pete Carroll, I'm going to want to see my successor take the reins of a team that is heading in a positive direction.
It likely won't happen this coming season, but right now? I'm looking forward to a >more< TEAM FIRST mentality.
And BEFORE y'all start the blathering about the >Self Serving Russell Wilson< as I know some of you are STILL harping on, Wilson is NOT a HC, and NOT a 'Must Keep' option.
Wilson has had seven years to PROVE himself to be that MVP Quarterback, so needless to say, we've already seen MOST of the best that he has to offer; Maybe in Donko Land, eh?
EVEN WITH Three DIFFERENT OC's, we ALL saw Wilson constantly reverting to playing the position HIS OWN WAY, so for some of y'all still believing that Pete had been hindering his Quarterback? LOLOLOLOL
