With Kubiak you would see more of the QB under center, play action and QB roll outs. It could work out well despite the zone blocking. With Fraley you would still have to hire someone like Grant Ubinski to handle the passing plays. Might as well make Ubinski the OC but that would be dang ballsy.
One of the features he would bring to the offense is making it tough for the defense to tell if we're going to run or pass... He focuses a lot at mastering the 4-5 step QB drop w/out giving it away whether it's a run or pass... I love that aspect of his offense... We absolutely haven't had anything like that the past few years...
Fraley would signal they are serious about fixing the OL, but id rather go with a veteran play caller like pederson or mccarthy.
You say Kubiak feels uninspired but so do Pederson and McCarty. Word is Peterson has checked out and doesn't put out the effort and McCarty is just living off the single Superbowl Rodgers got him to. Neither have shown any flashes of inspiration for years. Doubt anyone would feel giddy about Kubiak being the hire, but he has the resume for the job, young and still energetic, likely fits Mcdonald vision on the type of offense he's looking for. Thus far he looks like the best fit for the Seahawks of the 4 that have been interviewed. I guess it's a matter of personal preference on which candidate you prefer, but realistically you should try to pick one that the Seahawks have interest in.
Havent exactly had a great track record hiring OCs the past 15 years, its fair to seconds guess what schneider is doing.
Schneider isn't choosing him thought, Macdonald is. Macdonald fired the last OC and now is making his own choice. Seems like a man that knows what he wants from the HC and I'm going to trust it's a wise choice until it shown to be otherwise. Naturally I hope it's someone that I view as a good choice as well, but even if it someone I'm not thrilled with, I'm going try to hold criticism to see how it works out. We all want the Seahawks to succeed and Mac gives me hope they can do that. If we lose faith why even bother with following the team. I sort of feel that Schneider needs a strong HC to guide him to make the right decisions.
