It also sends a message to players.

"It's time to shake things up, so don't get comfortable in your position, because nobody's safe!"

"Players who aren't all in on being a Seahawk may be gone too."

I think this will have this, and other positive effects on the team. It will certainly refresh the fan base...unless Pete keeps/promotes Cable. That will lose him fans, and possibly Players.


It will also help heal the wound left over from the Superbowl loss.

Unintended consequence: things get worse before they get better, because swapping OC's isn't an instant fix.

Another interesting take I heard was a new OC will take Russ out of his comfort zone, the report suggested that Pete may want a hard nosed type to come on board and keep Russ on his toes.

So Holmgren is coming back :)

I agree with Original. Word is Russ likes a motivational guy that maybe yells at him or holds him accountable. Russell wants to be the best in the league and wants a fire under his ass from the right supportive coordinator/QB Coach. Russ is a grinder

Two words: SEAN MCVAY.

Overhauling an offensive staff can make a world of difference.

Can.

Doesn't always.

And how far did McVay take this amazing new offense? One and done in the post-season.

Let's see some long-term and deeper post-season success before using him as the automatic solution to Offense woes.

Nah he took a 4-12 team with probably the worst offense in the NFL to an 11-5 Division winner and #1 offense in the NFL. Nice try on trying to play down the remarkable job he did though.

Who says this is an unintended consequence?.........

I think it was very much intended

The point is that this team has the pieces, according to many on this board, of going much further than one-and-done. I'm not saying it's not remarkable, but that Fischer wasn't using the talent nearly well enough, and McVay still has much to prove. If you're fine with not winning a game in the playoffs, then your point stands, 2222.

Also not sure that it was all on McVay. Goff was in his second year and they went out and got a decent Oline. I clearly remember when we played them Goff had all day to throw. Wouldn't that be nice for RW?
