Couldn't hire an experienced OC, everyone in the league is on to him and that they'd never be allowed to flex, so you just snag a young position coach that was never gonna be brought up in talks to be an OC anywhere else. Presto, you technically have an OC now.toffee":ux5e1kvp said:How our OC was hired:
The Seahawks reached out to him
“I’ve always just respected him from afar or from the opposite sideline,’’ Waldron said. “I’ve never had a chance to really interact with them before Seattle reached out to start this interview process. So that was really the way this thing started.’’
Waldron said he and Carroll talked remotely for several days before the job offer arrived.
“There were a lot of phone calls, a lot of FaceTime, Zoom elements to this process with him,” he said. “Over the course of several days we spoke, had some great conversations, starting with philosophy, starting with my history and really taking it all the way through things that he believed in. And at the end of this thing, really just making sure that we were aligned in how we view the game, how we view things moving forward.’’
Waldron said one thing that stood out is that he didn’t feel as if he was having to make “a sales pitch’’ to get the job. That instead, he felt like he and Carroll were just talking and realizing how much of their views meshed.
“There was so much philosophical alignment between he and I, going back to just that starting point of saying ‘Hey, it’s all about the ball.’ Well, lo behold, what’s his starting point? … So many of those things were just naturally in alignment,” he said.
LOL, what a way to hire an OC,
you was there any doubt. PC will never hire anyone who will stray to far form what he wants
Right... because throwing the ball in futility in OT against a team that was out Peteballing us is Pete's way.
Or wait, no. Throwing the ball 40 times with 2 picks in the endzone when you were rushing for over 4 ypc is Pete's bidding.
Or having the shortest average drive duration ( because it's all tempo tempo tempo and no running, is what Pete wants.
Or the worst 3rd down conversion percentage from your QB in the league
ALLLL Hallmarks of a PC team and one where the OC is doing EXACTLY what Pete wants.
