Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson may have himself an effective offensive line this season and it’s been a long time coming.

“Well, for the first time in, I don’t know, a while, in my opinion – really since we won the Super Bowl – we’ve had a consistent offensive line in practice,” Wilson said Thursday. “That consistency is huge. Obviously, guys fill in every once in a while, but I mean from obviously all the way from the left side to the right side, we’re really solidified in our line and what we’re doing and the calls and everything else.

“It makes a difference.”

The Seahawks parted ways with longtime line coach Tom Cable this offseason and brought back Mike Solari, who had been with the team during the 2008 and 2009 seasons.

Wilson said Solari really explains the “whys” of football from blocking schemes to pass protection.

“It’s cool just to watch one of the best offensive line coaches in the game of football,” Wilson explained. “He’s been that for a long time. To have him on our football team is a good thing.”

The Seahawks head to Los Angeles to face the Chargers Saturday night and the unofficial depth chart lists the following offensive line starters from left to right: Duane Brown, Ethan Pocic, Justin Britt, D.J. Fluker and Germain Ifedi.

“Well, I want to see efficiency, obviously, as always,” Wilson said of his expectations for the matchup. “We want to have great up-tempo offense. We want to be able to get in and out of the huddle and execute.”

Kickoff is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. PT on Q13 FOX.
