Fair enough Rock. Nobody wants to see us suck.
Give credit though. People can disagree. We all love the Seahawks and probably football as a whole.
Keasely actually reached out to apologize to me for seeming to go too hard at me. Not an issue because he does an incredible job of making his case and supporting his viewpoints.
I don't want to see Carroll turn into another Jim Lambright either. It just feels a bit too late for that.
So my fingers are crossed you are right.
But remember, Tom Coughlin was an OUTSTANDING coach. He turned freaking BOSTON COLLEGE into a monster. He then won it all with the Giants. (The Giants!) He could coach rings around Carroll, though admittedly, Carroll is one of the greatest program builders in NFL history. And even so, Carroll is older than Coughlin when he retired. At some point, there just isn't enough tread on the tires.
We bet on Carroll instead of Wilson. I get it. Wilson is tough to take, I imagine he is worse in person. I am sure the person making that decision that actually knows the guy would take Carroll 10 times out of 10 over Wilson for non-football reasons alone.
But it feels like we bet the race on a car that is basically on E. There is nothing in the tank left but fumes.
It would have been preferable to have Carroll go out like a King, leaving while something of his legacy was left. He would have been venerated by every Seahawk fan for decades to follow.
I guess we will find out soon.
