Owner Involvement

Seems to shut you down every time.

Who does Pete Carroll report to?

No. It loses my interest every time because it's pretty much an admission that you've got nothing else to say.

Nah.

I go back and forth between being amused by him and feeling sorry for him.

I'm curious about "the Seahawks way"...

...could you fill us in?

Pete answers to no one pending the franchise is winning and on a good track.   

If he is losing and on a bad track?   He would answer to the owner.  Probably be gone relatively quick for it like every other coach.

Got it. 

So conversely does this mean the rest of the organization reports to Pete?  (ex. the owner obviously)

generally, speaking? Probably. But Pete's current situation isn't the norm.   

Would apply that to very very few other coaches.  It requires not only consistent success, Super Bowls, etc.....but also the right owner to allow it.

Would Rhule be one of the less than a handful of NFL coaches executing within the model you describe?

Never the less carry on with your triggering trolling of Mr.Scot and others!

He's not trolling.

He genuinely believes he knows something everyone else doesn't. That's why he spams it into every thread he can.

There's more that could be said but I'll leave it at that for now.

He picks apart peoples wording and meaning, must be pure hell for him to read my poo. He was big wrong about Herniay, but he owned it. The appaloosa spam was a little tiresome, but that was his gimmick that I didnt take seriously. I mean what GM and HC doesnt report to the owner?(I just recently learned about Seattle) I like when someone has a different opinion with strong beliefs. The day the huddle turns into a giant echo chamber, is the day Im out.

Here are some facts, good and bad, about Tepper after 3 years:

7-9
5-11
5-11
Ran Cam, Olsen and TD out of town (whether you approve or not)
Started pining for taxpayer dollars for a new stadium before the ink dried on his purchase agreement
Oversaw unprecedented ticket prices for his MLS team, which destroyed public goodwill
Held on to Hurney too long
Put the team logo at midfield
Added some cool concourse things to improve fan experience
Hired a new coach (Matt Rhule) and new GM (Scott Fitterer)

As you can see, some of these moves haven't turned out well, a couple have and then the jury is obviously out on others. But to say "he's done nothing but good so far" is egregiously false

    • That is definitely the down side of all this--on paper, I would offer up a second rounder for him if he passed my interviews.  He has already gone through (seriously?) a treatment program for gambling addiction.  I just see him as a first round talent that we could get with a second rounder.  If I liked Bryce and felt good about paying him $50m per, I would not touch Sorsby.  If Bryce regresses or stays the same--he is going to expect to be paid.  Sorsby, in my view, has a better long-term future as an NFL QB.  He is big, mobile, has good arm strength, and makes wise decisions (on the field) with the football.  He is a great dual threat, RPO QB.   I think he is a perfect solution for the backup qb position and insurance for Bryce should he get injured or suck.  Pickett?  King?  yikes. 
    • Hard to say--they are very unpredictable--this article came out last night---after our comments:  (ESPN)   How has the NFL approached NCAA players with gambling violations in the past? David Purdum, sports betting reporter: Quarterback Hunter Dekkers and wide receiver Kayshon Boutte were found to have committed gambling violations while playing college football, and both were allowed to pursue NFL careers. Dekkers was the projected starting quarterback at Iowa State but was ruled ineligible ahead of the 2023 season after an investigation found he had bet on at least one game involving the Cyclones (among other wagers that violated NCAA bylaws). The bet was just $15 on Iowa State to beat Oklahoma State in a 2021 game in which he did not play, but it led to the end of his Division I career. He played one season at Iowa Western Community College in 2024 before signing with the Saints as an undrafted free agent, and he spent last season on the practice squad. Boutte was arrested in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in January 2024 on charges of underage betting while at LSU. The arrest came roughly eight months after he had been drafted in Round 6 by the Patriots, and the charges were ultimately dropped. According to police, Boutte placed more than 8,900 wagers from April 2022 to May 2023, including betting on at least 17 college football games -- at least six of which involved LSU during that span. The NFL did not discipline Boutte.
    • He did himself more harm than good by engaging in this ridiculous legal battle. One it brought to light how much gambling he was actually doing and two it made him a very unlikable figure from a public perspective because he was challenging the perceived sanctity (lol) of college sports. Then to make things worse his lawyers convinced a very stupid and very gullible old boomer judge to agree with him. Now he’s a lightning rod entering the league and that’s not a good place to be.
