Kind of anticlimatic, for sure.Hopefully I can get on board with this hire, but right now seems depressingly uninspired.

Yes they have a Raider connection, that is the main reason.I do think he is a good coach, just had nothing but crap to work with. There is a reason Gruden jumped right on him.
Those of you wishing for a more higher profile name, I mean was that really an option?
If you are a big time OC candidate are you going to a team where offense is an afterthought and where very little overall payroll is spent?
Seahawks is a place you should be able to get the very best available DC money can buy. It's not even middle of the league in desirability for OC.
This was the only real reason I wasn't in favor of dumping Bevell. It wasn't his offense, it was Pete's. New guy coming in will still be given a 30-40% total payroll and be told to run a very conservative offense designed just not to fuck up and score only enough to win.I was hoping perhaps for a upcoming offensive mind from the college ranks hoping to break into the NFL, but I think Pete was looking for someone to follow his offense philosophy rather then someone that had their own philosophy. A little deflating at the moment, but we really don't know much about the new OC other then being familiar with his father, so lets give it a chance.
Tell me, did you think Cable did a good job?
Brian Shottenheimer
Well the DC position is not available at this time. Richard is still the DC. As for the OC Looks like Brian Schottenheimer QB coach of the Colts may get hired. Not very inspiring IMO.
Here is how his offenses have faired:
In nine seasons as OC, the best his offense finished was 11th in the NFL... He's had success w/ the running game at times but not so much with the passing game... Nothing to write home about... Trust the coaches signed the right guy... Looks like Pete could be focusing on the '08-'10 stat sheet in terms of running the ball... We're definitely going back to his philosophy when he first took over the team...

I actually doubt highly that as a team we're going back to the ground n'pound little risk offensive model. We may not go WCO, but I still see a continuing emphasis on throwing.
Guess we'll see.
Its not. Making fun of snugsHeck if I know, not the type of thing I would feel was of note.
