Seahawks fans are eagerly awaiting news of coordinators getting fired

Clint Hurtt Shane Waldron Seahawks Pete Carroll Ken Norton Nash Nathan Wink Martindale DC (Organization)

The 2023 Seattle Seahawks were underachievers. Despite having a solid quarterback and a ton of talent at the skill positions, they only finished No. 17 in the NFL in points scored per game. Meanwhile, on defense this was once again one of the league’s worst run-defending units, even after a strong start in this department. At the end of the season they ranked No. 31 in rushing yards allowed per game and No. 25 in points allowed per game.

While there better and more complex ways to gauge how good a team is on both sides of the ball, wins and losses and points scored and allowed are ultimately what decides who stays and who doesn’t stick around at this level.

So, who’s responsible for this talented and young team not living up to their full potential? If your finger is pointing at the coaching staff, then you’re going in the right direction.

While moving on from head coach Pete Carroll is still very-much a polarizing idea, most Seahawks fans seem more than ready to hear that both offensive coordinator Shane Waldron and defensive coordinator Clint Hurtt have been fired. Here’s what they’re saying on Twitter.

Update:

There’s still no word on Hurtt or Waldron, but the Seahawks are moving on without Pete Carroll as head coach. He will remain with the organization as an advisor. We can safely assume that Waldron and Hurtt will be given the boot soon.
