Michael Bennett: Playing for Pete Carroll is like playing for Willy Wonka

We have a feeling that Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory was a pretty popular movie in the house when Martellus and Michael Bennett were growing up.
A couple of years ago, Martellus said that then-Bears coach Marc Trestman reminded him of Willy Wonka. That didn’t help Trestman all that much when Bears brass decided he was a bad egg after last season, but that left an opening for a Wonka-esque figure on the NFL sidelines. Enter Pete Carroll, or so says Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett.
“It’s like playing for Willy Wonka,” Bennett said on 750 The Game in Portland, via the Tacoma News-Tribune. “He’s crazy. He wants to be young. He just is one of those guys who’s always up beat, wants to have a good time, and let’s you be yourself.”
And the snozzberries taste exactly like snozzberries in the team’s cafeteria to boot.
Bennett went on to compare Carroll quite favorably to Greg Schiano, who coached the Bucs when Bennett was in Tampa and earned poor marks for letting men act like men. Bennett and Carroll haven’t been seeing much of each other of late as the defensive end has stayed away from workouts in a quest to shake more money loose from the team.
They haven’t decided to send him to the taffy-pulling room or anything nearly as severe, but Bennett’s just a year into his deal and that may make the idea of a raise nothing more than pure imagination on Bennett’s behalf.

Willy Wonka would’ve ran it.
----------
Do the PEDs taste like snoozberries?
----------
And Rex Ryan is Augustus Gloop…

Funny, but by the looks of his game management skills in the last Super Bowl, he reminds me more of Captain Queeg.
---------
The way he was chewing that gum after the INT, he seemed more like Violet Beauregarde.
