Seahawks on tape: This is the ‘pocket Russell Wilson’ we’ve been waiting for

When are you most comfortable? For me, it’s sat on the couch, beer nearby, playing NCAA ‘14. For Russell Wilson, it might well have been last Sunday against the Oakland Raiders. It’s been awhile since he’s looked this calm in Seahawks Blue/White.

Wilson started the season looking like he was in a state of fiery hell, not tranquil bliss. It’s a league-wide trend for a new offensive playcaller to bring regression to the entire offense. But there’s no doubt Wilson looked restless. Damaging habits remained from 2017 and appeared to worsen; He was running backwards; He was ‘sensing’ ghost pressure; His internal clock looked totally scrambled.
