Brian Schottenheimer is not the problem, nor was Bevell

I said it at the time of the hire, and I’ll repeat it now, it doesn’t matter if we have Shanahan, McVay or LaFleur as the OC, this offense will always sucks because of Pete Carroll and his philosophy.

I am a facts and data person... here’s an interview from Rex Ryan when we hired Schotty... https://sports.mynorthwest.com/3939...r-seahawks/amp/#click=https://t.co/VtmOxfo6rj

Go half way down and read Rex Ryan’s quote/or listen to the interview. Jets getting killed by 20 vs the Lions. Schotty still calling run plays until Rex questions him why... ‘Yeah but Rex, we’ve got to get those 40 carries.’ ...Schotty is nothing more than a mere “Yes Man” he will do whatever the coach tells him even if it means the team loses...part of why Pete hired him. If we fire Schotty, we will get another Pete “Yes Man”.... The problem isn’t the OC, it’s the HC. Time for Pete Carroll’s to be fired...Pete got worried with the Turnovers and reverted to his Prevent Offense philosophy the last 10 games of the season and we had a ‘Yes Man’ at OC which fully complied

Thanks for the link, interesting story. Did Rex really relate that anecdote in "praise" of Schotty?

I think it was his way of saying that Schotty is a moron with no creativity or independent thought, but doing so in a way that sounded like he was praising him.

Don’t forget the a QB who constantly shits the bed in playoff games. What’s his playoff record now? He’s become the Kurt Cousins of the playoffs.

He's done nothing to be considered more than that. 2013 and 2014 were all LOB. Russell was a Dilfer on the 2013 team. Ever since he's gotten the reigns, he hasn't delivered

Well this definitely explains the Cowboys loss a couple years ago in the playoffs

The pit
Disagree with the OP. Bevell, Schotty, and Pete are all the problem.
Bevell and Schotty are both crappy coordinators and Pete hired them both.
