The length of time it took to get the contracts complete for John Schneider and Pete Carroll led to some inevitable concern, but Schneider on Thursday noted the value of keeping the same management team together as an attraction to want to stay in Seattle.
RENTON — If some in Seattle may have been filled with increasing angst the last few months as the Seahawks worked to re-sign general manager John Schneider, Schneider himself insists he was always at ease.
Any perceived delay that took place before he agreed to a new five-year contract last weekend, he says, was due mostly to the nature of the NFL offseason, when simply getting everyone in the same room can be a challenge.
