It's not that people hate Pete (maybe some do), but that he's overstayed his welcome and is clearly not willing or capable to change his coaching style, which as been mentioned hundreds of times, is outdated and ineffective.
He caught lightening in a bottle...almost ten years ago. He's the second highest paid coach in the NFL -- $11 million a year, behind only Bellicheeks. (Side note: Belli's son Randy - sorry Steve - is a hilarious throwback). Pete keeps looking more and more hapless with each game. There isn't enough time in the NFL -- or Pete's life -- to hope that somehow his stale methodology will magically come around and be effective again. Not without the LOB.
Plain and simple, Pete has been coasting on Russ saving his bacon the last 4-5 seasons, and it just keeps getting worse. The only upside to RW getting injured is that now there is no doubt who the weak link is on the Seahawks squad. The dude who is supposedly in charge.
Hang it up, Pete. While you still have your dignity.
