Great hire. Seattle keeps a defensive minded coach and we put up over 31 on them after a bye. Seattle needed offensive help, not defensive.

I'm a bit disappointed with this hire. Didn't want to see a guy like him added to the division, Quinn would have been far better for us. But maybe they'll be impatient and it won't work out. He may need some time to settle in.

They're wanting to rebuild that 12th man BS, which was pretty non-existent when we played them week 1. But we need them to keep the whiners in check so I'd like them to be good enough for that.

Great Hire IMHO. MacDonald is one DC I would have considered. Bright & the Seahawks will be tough defensively. Not sure his plan for their offense, however, he has been around a couple of extraordinary offensive guys in Jim Harbaugh & Todd Monken. Now the questions looms, who will be his OC?
Ive actually met MacDonald and spent some time with him on a few occasions. Last time I saw him was right before he took the DC job at Michigan. He was just a defensive assistant for the Ravens at the time. Unbelievably nice dude who loves football. Obviously a bright guy. Funny story, the last time I hung out with him he had just gotten back from visiting his sister in Seattle. He said he loved it there and could see himself living there one day.
Funny enough McVay and Macdonald went to high school 15 minutes from each other. McVay is a year or 2 older but still kinda funny

So 8 head coach openings with 7 filled. By my count it's 4 DC"s promoted so far win Morris, McDonald, Mayo and Pierce. Washington might have to go defensive guy too with Slowik and Johnson going back as OCs? Very interesting coaching cycle this year.
If Washington goes from Rivera to Quinn that would be very sad why even get rid of Rivera? Do they do what nobody thinks and promote Bienemy? Snyder is gone but they still seem disfunctional.

Did a great job as Ohio State DC which got him the head coaching gig at Boston College.
Tough school to recruit because of academics & their NDL funds are limited, but they were well coached by Hafley & his staff.
IMO he will be a major upgrade over Joe Barry.

Eight Head Coach openings ... five filled by men with a background on Defense ... interesting ... little surprising.
