This is the first I have heard of this, anyone else heard any resemblance of this rumor???

Dated Jan. 1st, 10:22AM ESPN Insider

Among the buzz in Seattle during another woeful season is centered around the questions of who will be at the helm in 2010. But that goes deeper than just one spot. The team needs a new general manager, and that GM could prefer to let Jim Mora go and hire his own guy. And that new head coach could prefer to start over at quarterback as soon as possible, which would also spell the end for Matt Hasselbeck in Seattle.

While it's not common for a coach to get just one year, the Hawks have nine wins in two years after winning nine or more for four straight seasons, and if they had a chance to to grab Bill Cowher or John Gruden out of the broadcast booth this offseason, passing just to be "fair" to Mora would seem foolish.

But what about the QB position? The Seahawks have two first-round picks in April, giving them ample chances to draft the heir apparent and giving Hasselbeck another year isn't out of the question by any means. The free agent route isn't likely unless Hasselbeck is released or traded, but there's also the idea that Hasselbeck, in the final year of his contract next year, could restructure that final year's salary to help the team's cap situation and give him some more guaranteed money and an extra year while the young QB comes in and learns the system.

can't see it myself, but you never know. Matt has taken the blame for a beat up and inconsistent O-line. I personally think he's still a great qb and would like to have him back for one or two more years. I, like many many other hawk fans would love to see Mora gone instead.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
