Leslie Frazier Hired As Assistant HC

[Ozzy]

Great hire. They worked together in Baltimore and it gives Macdonald an experienced guy to lean on while taking this on. Seattle is killing it so far.

Assistant Head Coach & DC?

Assistant Head Coach but not DC?

 

[CallMeADawg]

Interesting move. Effectively our new defense coordinator I would think.

 

[Ozzy]

Thanks! Thought I inserted it lol

 

[Seahawkwalt1967]

We are killing it..

 

[Aircrew]

Really like this move, for all the reasons already mentioned.

Seems like an Advisor Role, good, Frazier has always been looked upon as a good coach and better person from what I recall, gives Mickey D a down to earth ear to bounce ideas and evaluations off of.

Quote:

"Frazier has been in the NFL since 1999, and that experience should be vital for a first-year head coach in Macdonald. Before landing in Buffalo, Frazier was a secondary coach for the Baltimore Ravens (2016), defensive coordinator for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2014-2015), Minnesota Vikings (2007-2010) and Cincinnati Bengals (2003). He was also the interim head coach for the Vikings in 2010 before earning the role full-time in 2011 and was the head coach for three seasons. Frazier was also a defensive backs coach for the Indianapolis Colts (2005-2006) and Philadelphia Eagles (1999-2002).

Before entering the coaching ranks, Frazier played for the Chicago Bears as a defensive back for six seasons (1981-1986)."

Agreed, looks like a Consigliere role as opposed to DC.

MM implied he’d eventually turn over play calling so he‘ll need to develop a young defensive protege.

Nice!

 

[Fresno Hawk]

This is a great move by the Hawks. Our defense is going to be nasty again.

 

[Chawker]

Our defense will be a stout one.

Hopefully not like an Advisor Role....just look at PC

Leslie? Nice. It's good to see NFL teams understand that women are just as good as men when it comes to NFL positions.

16% of people named Kim are males.

Great first hire. Instantly gives Macdonald an experienced voice on his staff.
