Russell Wilson Proposes Big Changes to Seahawks Offense
The Seattle Seahawks had the chance to make a serious run to Super Bowl LIV. Unfortunately, the team stalled out against the Green Bay Packers in the NFC Divisional Round.
Quarterback Russell Wilson saw another chance to hoist the Lombardi Trophy vanish and now he wants to make changes to the offense. More specifically, he wants the Seahawks to follow a path similar to that of Kansas City Chiefs.

"We've always been really good in two minute situations, those end of half [situations], those up-tempo moments," said Wilson during an appearance on NBC Sports Network. "The reality is, the defense gets tired, first thing, and the second thing is that I really know how I want to get after them, how we want to get after them...the freedom of going after them and scoring as many points, that's kind of what the Chiefs do...they score more points than anyone else, and that's the name of the game."
That's easier said than done, but if anyone can come close to replicating the play-style of Patrick Mahomes, it's Wilson.
If the Super Bowl-winning quarterback wants the offense to change, that would mean adjustments to the coaching staff. And, as of this writing, no coaches are being shown the door.

When looking at the success of the Chiefs, it starts at the offensive line. For Wilson, his o-line was adequate at best. Now, three of his five starting linemen are free agents, which is far from ideal for the 31-year-old quarterback.
Wilson is obviously frustrated that he still remains a one-time Super Bowl champion, and knows that if the offense has a change in philosophy, he can add more Lombardi Trophies to his mantle.
