I fully agree.
Jody has bigger balls than most dudes on here.
Most would've been totally fine with mediocrity and letting the Seahawks sink further into darkness. Not Jody. She whipped it out and showed Pete who's boss.
The future is bright!

QFT from the props to Jody thread.
And I agree with RJ above as well. If a football person, or Paul Allen for that matter had been in charge, he would've been fired 2-4 years ago. Paul Allen's illness and death dragged this thing out longer than intended.
Now Pete gets to be Jody's poolboy, or hangout in a shoebox next to JS' desk, but I kid.
He wants to still coach, he has made that abundantly clear, this wasn't mutual, and he was fired in a PC way.
I hope he gets the opportunity, and contrary to popular belief, I will root for him wherever he goes.
It wasn't working here for a long time, his defensive scheme and philosophy was figured out a longtime ago. If it wasn't for consistent Pro-Bowl QB play over the last 10 years his record would be horrible for those looking to cite that.
He only has 1 playoff win in the last 7 years. And that was a narrow victory against an emergency, overthe hill, 3rd string QB.
But more importantly, its about the process, not W-L record. The defense was continually going backwards no matter how many assets were thrown at it, hitching his wagon to crony's like Hurtt, who couldn't coach himself out a wet paperbag! I mean, if it smelled like butter he might've actually ate it. But, how do you think it was going to end, is the point?
No one was buying what Pete was selling anymore. He did a poor job of pitching why he should remain as the headcoach publicly through the media the final month of the season.
Seriously, go back and listen to these interviews, and statements on his shows. He incriminated himself. Jody teabagged Pete, finally!
We're in good hands.. The future is bright!
