    Bump: Why Seahawks made right call with OC pick

    Thats because being a great coordinator isnt JUST about running plays. Ive used this example more times than i can count. Any coordinator can look at the Chiefs on Sunday or work with McVay (or Shanahan) copy their plays and run them thenselves. But even if you have solid personnel, just having...

    Fraley isnt even Lions OC

    Mmmmm... if this were 10 years ago, I'd agree. But usually a first interview is virtual, and used as a prescreening opportunity. If the person isnt obviously a bad match, you always bring them in for a 2nd 'in person' interview. I cant think of an organization worth their salt that would...

    Now you need a legitimate dual threat QB…

    I dont think you need a running QB. You need a mobile qb who is skilled at evading preesure in the pocket, and you need a qb who can occassionally break the pocket and get yards. But i dont think we need a L Jackson or J Daniels type who can run for 800 yards a season to be successful. I mean...

    Fraley isnt even Lions OC

    Thats certainly one possible explanation

    Fraley isnt even Lions OC

    I think they offered him the same deal he ultimately took in Detroit and he chose to stay where he was. I think Detroit just matched what we were offering. Happens all the time in every field - a competitor wants to hire you, you go to interview, they make you an offer, you go to your employer...

    Our new OC is pre-snap deceptive like MM's D

    Im hoping his skill at deception includes tricking our players into playing well.

    Seahawks Hire Klint Kubiak as OC

    Thing is, if Kubiak is at all competent, the o line will be better even if we change none of the pieces. But assuming we do upgrade at the guard spot (and we will), the question is whether Kubiak can differentiate what he does enough to give us an edge week in and week out.

    Were you happy with the Grubb hire?

    Seahawks Hire Klint Kubiak as OC

    If you wanna hear the take of a former WR who played here briefly. Brian Walters talks about DK, our wrs, Kubiak our QB and a few other topics in a pretty insightful interview on Brock and Salk. The stuff he says about Geno SHOULD make eveyone feel good, given the dude is obviously a Hawks fan...

    MacDonald riding with Geno

    Great observations on Geno from Bryan Walter's. Starts at around 32 minutes in with a convo on how to address qb after Geno. BTW, he thinks Geno is a top 10 qb and has apparently watched his play all year, INTs included. This is the same episode where he and Salk breakdown the last play of...

    Its a slow news period (SB49 related)

    So why not go back and pick at the scab a bit. 😉 Brock and Salk relive 'the play' and discuss the primary contributing factor that some here have argued was the case for years. https://play.cdnstream1.com/s/bonneville/brock-and-salk/hour-4-re-living-the-end-2b073c Yeah, i did it. Its a new...

    Seahawks Hire Klint Kubiak as OC

    Agreed. I do not get the logic of 1. Hiring a guy who didnt seem to be drawing much interest. 2. Has been canned twice in the last 3 years. 3. Runs a now bordering on antiquated version of Shanny's O, behind a soft blocking scheme. And 4. Showed little last year in the way to a 5 win season...

    Why are we so obsessed over our next OC?

    Absolutely. But qbs arent superheros that can make everything miraculously work if your line is garbage, your OC cant call a good gameand you have no running game. Washington put a solid group around their rookie gave him great coaching, and he is maximizing everything they have given him and...

    Why are we so obsessed over our next OC?

    Washingtin went from 27th to top 10 on their o line in ine year with arguably less talent than we have. Check that. For certain they had less talent. They plugged their interior with journeyman / bargain guys. The biggest difference from 23 to 24 up front and in blocking success was...

    Why are we so obsessed over our next OC?

    The first 3 coordinators mattered less because we didnt have a qb who ran the plays as they were designed. The offense rose and sank with Russ. Now, the scheme DOES matter because the 11 guys on offense actually run the plays. Our QB isnt an improv master, and so the quality of play and success...

    Fraley staying in Detroit

    Agree. They had their guy from the beginning and bag channeled assurances he would be a fit and interested. I think the same thing is happening again.

    Fraley staying in Detroit

    You do know Shane Waldron and Andy Dickerson arent working in the NFL anymore right? Just because you identify a problem and get parts to fix it, diesnt mean you get the right pieces. I could understand the 'excuse' angle if the guys who lef the offnese and line have been shown to be good...

    The case for Aaron Kromer

    Nobody knows what happened with that and it was 10 years ago. There was an altercation between the kid and Kromer's son. He intervened and was accused of hitting the other kid during the altercation. Misdemeanor charges were dropped as the parties settled out of court 16 days after the...

    The case for Aaron Kromer

    So, what we do know from what we have seen from Seattle's interview candidates is that their seems to be a preference for a guy who has experience in the league, whether at OC (Brown, Kubiak, Leftwich) or at a position they highly value (o line). They also seem open to exploring pairing talent...
