The Seahawks are just a weirdly run team. They insist on running the ball even when it demonstrably fails over and over. If you look at the latter portion of the second half of that game, they basically let Wilson be Wilson, and the only reason they lost was missed 4th down conversions that wouldn't have even been a factor if they weren't down by a bunch already, because they would have just punted. Wilson himself accounted for 450 yards and 4 TDs (51/2 on the ground).
If they just played with Wilson as the center point of their offense, instead of an occasional complement to their run game, they'd be a better team. They're paying him so much money and they're wasting a huge chunk of it because they don't use him to his full ability.
