Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said QB Russell Wilson is a million miles ahead of where he was last year.

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said he believes QB Russell Wilson could have a breakout season in 2013. "I think he's going to really do well this year.

It may be hard to imagine he's going to get any better, but I think he's going to get a lot better, being he was a first year starter, first time in the League," Carroll said.

Seattle Seahawks QB Russell Wilson said he is not worried about opponents figuring out the team's read-option offense because the team only runs 15 to 20 percent of their plays out of the formation. Wilson said he believes the formation is effective because the team likes to throw out of the formation. "Yeah, it's tough to stop," Wilson said. "I think the thing with us, and why it works so efficient for us, is we love throwing the ball out of the formation. We do a lot of things, a lot of play action, a lot of different looks."

An unnamed representative of Seattle Seahawks QB Russell Wilson reportedly called the team this week "insisting that something be done" to adjust Wilson's slotted third-round rookie contract. However, the new collective bargaining agreement prevents rookie contracts from being renegotiated until three of the mandatory four years have been completed. Theoretically, the Seahawks could simply cut Wilson and sign him to a new contract, if he clears waivers; however, he would not clear waivers.

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Chip Kelly may have changed his mind about coaching at the pro level after watching Seattle Seahawks QB Russell Wilson and San Francisco 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick perform in the divisional round playoffs last weekend, according to former NFL head coach Tony Dungy. "Could it be that Chip Kelly watched the playoffs and watched Russell Wilson run a little bit of his read option in the spread offense, and watched Colin Kaepernick run a little bit more of it?" Dungy said. Dungy added he believes Kelly watched the playoffs thinking, "My offense is way farther advanced than that, and maybe if this is going through the NFL, it might not be so tough."

It remains to be seen if Seattle is willing to trade QB Matt Flynn.
