Russell Wilson’s helmet speaker for play calls went out during Seahawks’ win at Carolina

Turns out, Russell Wilson had more to overcome than the Panthers and the scoreboard during the Seahawks’ huge rally to win at Carolina.

A league source told me Sunday night Wilson’s helmet speaker connecting him between plays with play-caller and offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer was not working for much of the first half of Sunday’s key game in Charlotte, N.C.

While the Panthers were marching up and down the field only to get turned away from touchdowns in the red zone three different times by Seattle’s defense in the first half, the Seahawks’ offensive people were scrambling.
