11 million....lol..Mr Allen prolly can find that under his couch cushions.

I wonder if Pete would switch to the 3-4 defense ? We got the backers but missing a dominant Nose tackle. Mebbe we could get Willfork from the Raiders to play NT...I believe he is a free agent.

No Zorn

No Carrol, hawks already had a national championship coach in Erickson. I dont trust the move from college to nfl.

Cowher would be awsome and he knows the refs gave him a superbowl. Maybe he will do it just to give seattle a championship.

wilfork is a patriot

You're right...I was thinking of Seymour.

ESPN say's that Carroll is the new head coach.

Good luck Seachikens.

Go Geenbay!

Geenbay ?

Hank, The Hawks interviewed Frazier last night I believe.

Greenbay

Seachicken.

Got it.

This is going to hurt the pac 10 and Seattle. Just don't think it was a choice.

The Hawks problem was talent not coaching...........................

now it's got management problem. What a cluster!!!!

Another lost decade for the Hawks!

carol will do fine, after all, he has been running a professional operation for years.

PC is bringing some talented coaches to his staff, this is not offical but a pretty good line up.


Carroll's Coaches
Written by Chris Sullivan Sunday, 10 January 2010 18:08
Moving forward under the assumption that Pete Carroll will be our head coach in 2010, here's what we think we know about his staff:


•Norm Chow is the reportedly the top choice for offensive coordinator. Chow is a legend when it comes to QB development.
•

•DeWayne Walker is the top guy, and really just about the only guy, that we've heard regarding a defensive coordinator.
•

•Jeremy Bates is interviewing with Chicago this week, but it sounds like Carroll wants him, probably as a QB coach. He helped develop Jay Cutler, so y'know, if you want whiny d-bags, he's the guy! Not really, he's a good coach...
•

•Ken Norton Jr. has reportedly been tabbed as the guy (according to ESPNews -- thanks Randy!) to coach our linebackers. He is currently the LB coach / Assistant head coach at USC. He's done alright there, I suppose. Four of his LBs came out in the draft last year and all four were getting significant playing time in the NFL this year. Bear that in mind: FOUR linebackers out of three starters. Whaaaat? Look for Curry to absolutely decimate the universe

think of all the former usc active players who love to play for carrol as nfl coach. things could turn around fast.

big big big mistake

here is a guy that coached two other pro teams and did not win anything and you people act like he is a god. all he is is a looser as a pro coach and will be gone in three years and the seahawks will be worst than they are now.
he is running from usc before all the sanctions come down

Larryb, he was not a "looser" in the NFL. FYI His record was 33-31.

Carrol is not a bad coach and could even be called a very good coach (I met PC a few years ago @ SeaTac. He was very engaging and treated me with a ton of respect. After about ten minutes I wanted to go play football for him. I was extremely impressed. To bad he's walking into a train wreck). But he sure as hell aint nearly as good as Holmgren who took this talented bunch to 4 wins last year. 5 wins this year. Don't matter who the coach is the talent sucks!!!! 5 pro bowlers on offense alone during the SB year and now they don't have a single pro bowler.

Add that Seahawks management is doing their very best to behave like the Raiders or Redskins management and you've got a decade of loosing football!

So-Just how good was Walter Jones? Now we are finding out what football is like without the best O tackle to ever play the game!

Good luck finding a GM!

We will be back in the play-off hunt and a contender with in 3-4 years.Mean while sit back and eat some popcorn or go hook a chromer.Good luck,

Having draft picks 6,14,and 38 is huge in turning things around. I say pick Clausen or Bradford with our first pick and let Matt go after next season.

Chuck S,
The key word was "CONTENDER".We need to draft and get from free agency 5 starters (3) on the O-line and (2) on the D-line or we ain't gonna win but a couple games next year.No salary cap and a open check book should be interesting to see.Hopefully the free-agancy players only have 4-5 years and could be around for awhile.Good luck,
STRIKE ZONE

How many 1st and 2nd round draft picks have been wasted on linemen over the last ten years? One or two every year as I recall and how has that worked out? A Walter Jones and a Cortez Kennedy are once a decade players. Every bit as difficult to find as a Pro Bowl quality QB. I hope the Hawks can turn it around quickly but the way the front office has been acting ever since losing Hutch, nameing Mora the "coach in waiting" and then running a HOF coach out of town I am not very confident!

Miami is a good example. The Big Tuna is running things there with an iron grip. The Big Show will soon be doing the same thing in Cleveland. Who's running the show in Seattle?

I'll say it agian. Another lost and pathetic decade for the Hawks!

But with that good luck Pete!!!!

p.s. Good news for the Dawgs though! Good timing too with letter of intent day still 3 weeks off. Time to poach some Trojans!!!
