Way-too-early 2021 NFL Power Rankings: Rams, Packers, Chiefs chasing Buccaneers

The whole ‘let Russ cook’ thing was a lot of fun, but Russell Wilson had an up and down campaign for the Seattle Seahawks in 2020. His numbers were still elite but there were some games where he struggled to get it done.

In the end, head coach Pete Carroll decided Brian Schottenheimer was the problem as they moved on from their offensive coordinator and replaced him with Shane Waldron – who according to the team’s official website will be working under his third coach with Super Bowl experience. The first was none other than Bill Belichick of the Patriots.

"“As an operations intern. Under the guidance of head coach Bill Belichick — who also attended Phillips Academy — Waldron won two Super Bowl titles (2003, 2004). Waldron left the Patriots to work at Notre Dame as a graduate assistant from 2005 to 2007 before returning to New England for two more seasons.” — Logan Reardon, Seattle Seahawks offical team website"

The second Super Bowl experienced coach he worked with was Sean McVay, and now he moves from a passing game coordinator position with L.A. to his current role with the Seahawks.

Should he be able to finally unleash everything Wilson has at his disposal, Seattle could once again be a team in the mix for the big game next season.
