The headline reads “Seahawks coach Pete Carroll is out after 14 seasons and one Super Bowl win“, but that doesn’t do this story justice, so we will.
After 14 seasons with the Seattle Seahawk Pete Carroll has decided to “step aside”, which is a nice way of saying that management told him he’d be fired if he didn’t bow out nicely. He’ll be moving into an advisory role with the organization, which is essentially a cushy job you land when you’re removed as the head of an organization, but they still want to keep you on for PR purposes IMO.
Pete Carroll leaves his coaching role with a 137-69-1 record in the regular season, 5 NFC West titles, 10 playoff victories, 2 Super Bowl appearances, and 1 Super Bowl victory in 2014 when they won the Vince Lombardi Trophy.
