Payton saying he has to be better but so does Wilson in getting plays in and called and in formation, because they burned too many timeouts and didn't have the right players on the field. He wants Russ to wear a wristband play sheet, something Carroll wanted him to do, but he's resisted.
So sounds like regular stubborn Wilson.
And the time out stuff isn't new. Whether he's overthinking or protesting the play call or just distracted, it happened a lot in Seattle where they had to call a timeout as the clock ticked down, at all points in a game.
Ancient times but I still contend if the Seahawks didn't inexplicably waste a time out on that final drive vs the Pats in the Superbowl (Wilson late getting the players up to the line the play right after the 2 min warning, which was routine) the sequence of events at the end of the game never happens, becuase an extra time out would've had Seattle running while at the 5, not overthinking, worrying about getting stopped and having to hustle to get another play off (though they could've had enough time) and deciding to pass.
