The Facts: Wilson's much-reported early-offseason huff with the Seattle Seahawks revolved around the Super Bowl-winning quarterback wanting a louder voice within the offense. Wilson underscored that desire back in February when he expressed a belief that he should be involved in some personnel decisions. It appears that, at least on one level, Wilson believes his opinion is being heard. During an interview with The Ringer's Kevin Clark, Wilson boasted about how "collaborative" new Seahawks offensive coordinator Shane Waldron has been this offseason.
Diehards Line:"I think for our offense, I'm just excited for our guys to continue to grow and make plays," Wilson said. "It's been fun having Shane Waldron there. He's been an amazing mind, super collaborative. We've had a lot of fun and done a lot of great things and thrown a bunch of touchdowns over the last nine years, whatever it's been. It's been amazing along the journey, and it's time to throw some more and win some more games. That's what we're excited about. We think we've got a chance to win it all and we're going to go for it." While the comment about the new OC seems buried in the QB's traditional outpouring of optimism, given the context of Wilson's angst with the organization earlier this offseason -- which by all accounts is water under the bridge at this point -- it's important to note. When taken in totality, the comments suggest a more open offense could finally be making its way to Seattle, which should make Wilson happy -- at least until the Seahawks lose a close game and Pete Carroll insists "getting back go the rushing attack" will cure all ills. Make no mistake: It'll be interesting if/when that happens.
