Seems odd to be rejoicing and dancing in the hallways over moving on from the guy who has brought one of 2 major championships to what is probably the worst major city in the US when it comes to success in that arena.

Carroll has led the Hawks to 11 winning seasons in the past 14 years, including 10 playoff appearances.

He is the best coach in the history of professional sports in the NW and it's not even close.

I'd say respect is due.

The grass is not always greener and we as Seahawk, Mariner, and Sonic fans should know that.

Well, it had to happen sometime. Thanks Pete, for what you brought to us. No guarantees and we will probably miss you.

Yeah, the expectation that the next coach is going to actually be better is going to be difficult achievement

Speaking of, betting on Quinn
As soon as the news dropped names were beginning to fly around in the media. One coach firmly in the mix, per Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport, is former Seahawks defensive coordinator and current Dallas Cowboys DC Dan Quinn. He is being strongly considered for the role and has head coaching experience from his time with the Atlanta Falcons.

Appearances are just that appearances. Marv Levy got Buffalo to 4, count'em 4 Super Bowls didn't win one. Pete has 1 count it 1 single UNO playoff win in 7 straight seasons but your good with that. I'm sorry but if your a true fan you demand greatness & greatness means playing in late January/early February. 1 single win, one. Should tell you all you need to know.

1. Your defense sucked
2. You don't have a franchise QB
3. You fail to adapt to new ideas

He's very predictable but the constant affirmation that he got us to the playoffs is good enough for you. Honestly some of you "fans" make me laugh. Now don't get it twisted doesn't mean I don't love Pete I do, at some point your message does tend to fall on deaf ears. If your not trying to win then you don't deserve to call yourself an NFL Head Coach.

Yeah. Reminds me of when George Carl was run out of town. I would be shocked if the next coach in here does any better than Pete.

Guessing Hurrt and Waldron are gone as well. Can't wait for the fresh start and breathe of fresh air instead of going with definition of insanity AGAIN.

Amazing that someone with "Mariner" in their handle would get bored with playoff appearances. :D

DT who's on your shortlist for names. Does Harbaugh or Ben Johnson make the cut. I know people wanna clown on Jim but you gotta admire what he brings. Definitely not opposed to Quinn but my preference would be Ben or Jim. I'm just in a state of complete shock right now still trying to process this.

Better than 25-26 the past three seasons? I would say there is at least a 50% chance of it.

I will for the life of me never understand this philosophy. I think many were tired of him, and maybe they shouldn't be rejoicing. I don't know one Seahawk that doesn't appreciate everything he did. But acting like one ring means he should stay as long as he wants? Should Bill Cowher still be in Pitt? Should Pederson still be in Philly? The word is the Pats are moving on from Belichick. If ANYONE has proven they deserve a lifetime deal it would be Bill. More rings than fingers on one hand!

Again, regression....and I don't know that his bullshit about us being too young, about his RBs not being the right style of back, even though he is the fucker that used two second round picks on them, and worse yet...this team is better than last year's version. I don't think you can say this type of straight up bullshit today and get away with it. Same reason Dipotto pissed off probably the most patient fan base in the history of modern sports!
