Most of America is stuck in their homes right now due to the coronavirus pandemic, but that isn’t stopping Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer from getting work done ahead of the 2020 NFL season.
Schottenheimer was a guest on KJR’s Chuck and Buck Show recently and gave a glimpse into the life of a professional football coach who is not able to work at the facility.
“The days are stacked with a lot of game film for sure,” Schottenheimer said. “We’ve been having some really productive meetings—it’s amazing this Zoom technology that we’re able to get on. We meet almost every day during the course of the week. We’re working through cut-ups, watching the run game, the pass protection, the pass concepts. Yesterday we had a great red-zone segment that we worked through looking at all our red zone stuff, where we need to improve, where we can get better, just tying things together.”
Schottenheimer on the virtual draft: "We'll be prepared for whatever they decide to do … Looking forward to a great opportunity for us to get better, & being here for two years, John Schneider & Pete do a great job of it, and no reason to think they won't do the same this year"

But Schottenheimer’s only focus isn’t on football during these difficult days, he finds time to spend with his family as well.
“But in the evening time with the kids, there’s been a little bit of binge watching TV, trying to find the next thing to watch,” Schottenheimer admitted. “That’s one of those things I didn’t think I’d be doing this time of year, but it’s fun to sit down and watch this stuff with your family from time to time.”
Schottenheimer and the rest of the Seahawks staff will be busy over the next few weeks, however, as the team ramps up for the 2020 NFL Draft, which will take place virtually April 23-25 as originally scheduled.
