He is even 3rd in passing yards which was also an issue in the past and has 25 point lead in passer rating over the two guys ahead of him.

Comparing him to Rodgers who was picked by some clown on TV yesterday. He literally leads in EVERY meaningful stat.

It distresses me to inform you, sir, that you are most acutely and irretievably insane.

I'm not the one trying to make the point that a top 5 offense with a MVP candidate at QB , top 5 RB and dynamic starters at WR is predictable and not creative.

What does the quality of the players have to do with how well the o-coordinator is doing his job? I would argue (again) that the play-calling appears better than it has been precisely because you have best RB in the league at creating his own yards and one of the best QBs in the league at turning broken plays into positive outcomes.

Under Darrell Bevell, the 2015 Seahawks had the #4 offense in the league. Does that mean he was running a great offensive scheme that was throwing off defenses or was it because Thomas Rawls led the league in YAC per carry and an improving RW had Baldwin, Lockett, Kearse, and Graham running routes out there?

If you are implying that the plays are working despite the play caller? I would disagree. All I ever ask is these guys put their players in a position to succeed. You want to see me blow up? Watch a Husky game with me. THAT is stupid ass play calling. A monkey could look at that team with their stable of RBs, offensive line and strong armed QB and NFL type TE and call plays. Instead they call shit they want to call, not shit that might work. When we are seeing play designs that allow for Russ to have time to throw, to allow him to dissect the defense deep down field and still get's Carson over 100 yards against one of the best run defenses in the NFL? It's hard for me to be down on the play caller.

Under Bevell, what I saw was a QB running for his life and somehow making plays, a back like Lynch avoiding tackles in the backfield, and some really screwy sideways passes and BS like that. Sorry, I just haven't seen that to near the same degree with Schotty. I also remember at least two winnable games were we blew big third quarter leads because we went three and out the entire second half. Remember the Cincy and Carolina losses?

You don't need gimmicks when you have great offensive weapons. Holmgren went out of his way to credit Shotty on the radio this morning. As long as he loses the sideways passes I am happy.

You guys seem to have short memories or little conviction, because i could swear you both were critics of the offensive play-calling not to long ago.

We have to talk about Brian Schottenheimer's potential landing spots for a head coaching job next season:
-Falcons (one disciple for the next)
-Chargers (after they fired his dad?)
-Washington (after they fired him and his dad?)
-Browns (this feels right)

You can be critical of the play calling. What I'm saying is the reasons you are giving simply are not true.
