(Renton) Citing differing philosophies, the Seattle Seahawks thanked offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer on Tuesday.
The team has set several offensive records this season, but coach Pete Carroll has often been dissatisfied with the handling of the offense.
Seattle established a team mark for points in a season. Russell Wilson had a personal high with 40 touchdown passes, while DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett signed team marks for receivers.
But after the 30-20 loss to the Los Angeles Rams on Saturday, Wilson and Carroll let concerns leak out about a lack of offensive adjustments towards the end of the season.
The 47-year-old Schottenheimer spent three seasons with the Seahawks, having led the offense for the New York Jets and St. Louis Rams.
