John Schneider’s new NFC West adversaries are far from strangers.
The Seattle Seahawks general manager has had many a conversation with John Lynch during Lynch’s eight-year run as an NFL broadcaster. Schneider recalled one specific chat leading up to a 2012 road game against the Buffalo Bills.
“I was able to sit down with him and take a ton of notes; pick his brain about the safety position,” Schneider said. “The safety position is one of the harder positions in college football to evaluate. It was great for me to get to sit down with him and get his thoughts on everything.
