It’s rare when Russell Wilson can get overshadowed in a Seahawks win. But that was the case Sunday as everyone focused their attention on the Earl Thomas soap opera and Chris Carson’s breakout game following a 24-13 victory over Dallas.
But afterward coach Pete Carroll cited Wilson’s “management’’ of the offense as being as big of a key as any to Seattle’s first win of the year.
Seattle’s first touchdown from Wilson to Jaron Brown was a perfect illustration of what Carroll meant.
The play came in the second quarter, just after the Seahawks had picked up a third-and-nine on a 19-yard pass from Wilson to Carson to take the ball to the Dallas 16.
