Raidiers Fire Tom Cable: Seahawks Nab Him

[Coachnorm]

The Seattle Seahawks announced the hiring of former Raiders coach Tom Cable as assistant head coach/offensive line. It's a sensible landing for Cable. He's a protege of offensive line guru Alex Gibbs, who retired as Seahawks offensive line coach just prior to the start of the 2010 season. Cable will keep Seattle's zone-blocking scheme intact.

Hopefully he will kick them in the ass and make them a viable unit. Good coach for Unger/Okung

think I also heard today that Zorn was in the running for OC

Good move by the Hawks I think.

:nod:

Cable will whip the O-line into shape

 

[Vicious_Machine]

This is actually a good fit for Cable; I think he will do way better in this kind of role.

I think it's a very good fit for Cable and a nice steal for Seattle. He should definitely help the offensive line.

 

[Cerberus]

Good for him and Seattle.

:nod: Heard he was in the running, but they may elivate the Qb coach, as he was supposedly offered the OC for Miami I think.

 

[Kingdome]

Cable is from the Seattle area. He grew up in the Everett-Snohomish area, which has produced a handful of other notable coaches.

 

[Miller]

This is a good fit for him.....more of what he is.
