Speaking of disgruntled coaches, word has been that Pete Carroll wants out of Seattle but the same team that forced him out of his head coaching role is holding him to his contract as a consultant.

Carroll is said to think an awful lot of Dave Canales (long history) and would certainly make a great mentor to him as a long time NFL head coach.

Somebody should start a protest or something outside the Seahawk offices so they'll set him free. That or maybe a letter writing campaign or an online petition or a damn plane with a banner behind it.

That'd convince 'em, right? 🫥

I have heard in news clippings from former players that his messaging has gotten stale

plus he is a West Coast lifer

He wouldn't be "messaging" anybody here. Basically just helping Canales get accustomed to his new role.

Whether or not he'd actually accept such a role? No idea.

Honestly though, Seattle probably should just let him go anyway. It's kind of silly the position they're putting him in.

 I wonder what the legalities are on this.  His title was Head Coach and was removed as HC. Unless he signed off on the consultant position.  I don't see where you can basically fire a guy from a position but try to keep him with a new title without his permission.

Seattle is sneaky like that though.

Complicated I'm sure...

Inherent In the move is that GM John Schneider now has full power with the team. In the past, Carroll always had final say.

I get the want to have a knowledgable vet like Pete in the building for Canales to lean into. For me, it would trigger my 2023 PTSD of too many chefs in the kitchen. From what Carroll and Canales have said, they have a pretty open dialogue. I think Canales would have the ability to tap into Pete at any time without him specifically being on the Panthers staff.

I also think DC wants space to run the show as a first time HC.

Don’t need Pete the Cheat and his sonic speed gum chewing on this team 

Pete the cheat is a damn good coach and could be a damn good mentor. As far as his gum chewing, that old fart can chew whatever the hell he wants if he could be of benefit to this team, our first time head coach and our players.

      First OTA's Monday and Tuesday

      By CRA · Posted

      I mean, CMC had almost 1100 total yards and 7 TDs his rookie season.  I don't recall people calling him a bust but there was criticism he needed to bulk up and change for the NFL and of course the should you really draft a RB that high talk given what you can get elsewhere.   and he spent the offseason putting on tons of muscle and getting jacked.   Which was basically the talk of the board as camp approached.  And that 1100 season was then followed by an almost 2k season.  what did Bryce do? Watched Netflix and you tube....per Bryce.  So it's hard to really think we will see a CMC uptick in year 2 when our QB took the offseason off of football.

      I'm old enough to remember the people who wrote CMC off after his rookie season.  Was too small, couldn't break tackles.  Was a completely wasted pick.  Complete bust to take him top-10 when the Saints drafted the OROY (Kamara) in the 3rd Round. We live in a hot-take society.  I hope Bryce does better and 100% think he can, but none of us have a crystal ball. Just interesting how things have changed (i.e. CMC vs. Kamara).  And it's like that with multiple players. Cam was never seen in the same vein as Andrew Luck of RG3 early on... the NFL creates their own narratives, and many of them outlive their actual truthfulness. It is still wild to me the amount of hate Bryce has received. Let's see what this season brings...
