I don't get why some folks are blaming Wilson for the slow start, this has happened even before Wilson was drafted. It could be Pete's Carroll's philosophy to let the other team show their hands before we unload all our plays on them. The scripted plays gauges the opponent and then we make adjustment in the 2nd half to take advantage of those information we receive in the 1st half. It's a tactic that has it's own flaws, especially when those teams starts scoring points on our defense.
I made a chart below that shows the TDs made, keep in mind all those TDs are for everything (Offensive, Defensive, Special Teams TDs)
You can see that they play their best in the 3rd and 4th Quarter, two different Offensive Coordinators.
Matt Hasselbeck was 12 TD 17 INT in 2010
Tarvaris Jackson was 14 TD 13 INT in 2011
I'm not saying that Wilson is perfect but putting the blame on the slow start solely on one person is just looking for another reason to use it as an argument against Wilson. I will be the first to say yes Wilson needs to have better ball placement and wish we could use the middle of the field more and get the ball out quicker, but how much does that have to do more with Pete's philosophy of protecting the ball more than anything which coincide with Bevell's play-calling in the 1st half?
