Don’t like Brian Schottenheimer’s play calls? Sometimes his wife agrees with you

RENTON — Seahawks offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer has his share of harsh critics, as just about anybody in his position does.

Schottenheimer on Thursday revealed that one of his most critical critics is about close to home as can be — his wife, Gemmi.

“I get in the car (after a game) and I’m like, ‘can I just relax for a few minutes?,’’’ Schottenheimer said. “She’s like ‘you ran it up the middle, I don’t like that.’ I’m like ‘join the club.”’

Being able to have a sense of humor about his job is a particular help after games like last week, when the Seahawks suffered an upset 33-27 loss to the Saints.
