Why the Seahawks fired Pete Carroll

The offseason of the Seattle Seahawks officially reaches one week old Sunday, and even though it is still early, it is already among the biggest offseasons of change for the Hawks in franchise history. That, of course, stems out of the fact that on Wednesday, following a 9-8 season which finished with the team failing to qualify for the postseason for the second time in three years, the team announced that head coach Pete Carroll would no longer lead the team going forward.

The reactions to the move were not surprising, with many feeling it should not have been made, with others complaining it comes years too late after the Seahawks have managed to win a single playoff game since the end of the Obama administration.
