Seahawks Hire Klint Kubiak as OC

[Seahawker]

He's a fine hire, started well with the Saints before their entire roster imploded. Had some HC rumblings at only 37.

That said, fix the OL. I don't care who we hire at OC if that doesn't get better.

Hopefully John wakes up from the mindset that good playcalling can overcome a popsicle stick IOL.

Yawn.

Stiflingly average hire.

Great in NO until defenses figured out his system. Then couldn't adjust.

We do love coordinators that can't make adjustments. He'll fit right in.

Nice, safe hire. I suppose you don't always need to swing for the fences.

Coached a textbook awesome ZBS with the Texans under Klint's dad. He's no Jeff Stoutland, but he can get a unit into operational shape in a scheme he's familiar with.

They had a couple decent seasons. A lot were, meh. Also I'd imagine Gary was a decent part of that.

We heard the same about Cable and Solari.

I'm not expecting a miracle.

 

[CPHawk]

hell no

There is a good chance NO cuts him. He knows the offense and is far better than Geno when healthy. Cut Geno, draft a QB to learn from Carr this season.

We don't need a miracle, and an operational OL isn't a miracle. That's my point, really.

Just checking in again..has Kubiak fixed the oline yet? And if not why?

 

[Hawkinaz]

During John Benton’s playing career he was a scab player

Learned the ZBS from Bronco‘s o line coach Alex Gibbs

From the available pool of prospects - who would have been a swing for the fences home run hire?

 

[CallMeADawg]

Wasn’t my top choice but I’m happy to give him every opportunity to succeed.

As if that matters at all

 

[AROS]

FIRE KUBIAK!!!

Yes I know, not the first to say it but just regurgitating what will be future posts on .NET.

Hope he’s a success for us!

 

[AROS]

I just want an average or better offense from him..
Grubb was a nightmare.

Agreed. Give me an improvement on offense and OL from last season and that’s a damn good start. That is worth 2 extra wins. (12-5).

He made Spencer rattler look decent with a 2nd string offense half the year.

Love it. Now let's get to work.

I'm not saying fire him until he runs 48 consecutive pass plays *while* flipping off MM on the sidelines!

 

[HawkRiderFan]

Outside of Frahley I can't think of anyone who they pursued first and had to settle. The QB coach with the Viking was the other name in the mix

 

[nwHawk]

Jahri Evans? He’s coaching in the Senior Bowl.

 

[Cyrus12]

Trade for Rattler now!

 

[kidhawk]

As if that matters at all

I’m not sure what makes you think that anyone (including myself) would think otherwise? As a fan I’m going to root for the guys success and will give him every opportunity to succeed without calling for his head at every mistake or a slow start. It’s not really that hard to understand.

I love this hire. I watched what his father accomplished in Houston. And love that Klint grew up on the sidelines. I like what Klint was able to do with Brock Purdy his rookie year. I like that he has experience in the OC position and that we'll get to see play action next year. Maybe Haynes, Bradford and the inside gang will excell at ZBS. Here's hoping!
