The Seahawks’ season coming to an end with a whimper led many to believe major changes were needed. Just a few days after Seattle’s wild card loss to the Rams, one has occurred.
On Tuesday, the Seahawks announced the team and offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer had mutually agreed to part ways, citing philosophical differences.
Brian Schottenheimer is a fantastic person and coach and we thank him for the last three years. Citing philosophical differences, we have parted ways.

Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Schottenheimer was fired, however, rather than a mutual parting.
