United Kingdom Seahawks fire offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb after only one season
NFL Week 18 Overreactions
Mackenzie Salmon breaks down the last week of the 2024 NFL regular season.

The Seattle Seahawks are resetting again in 2025, though not at the scale they did the previous year.
The team fired offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb on Monday after just one season, coach Mike Macdonald confirmed.
“I felt like the direction our offense was going was different than the vision I had for the football team,” Macdonald said KIRO-AM radio.
Grubb, 48, was hired by first-year coach Mike Macdonald last offseason from the University of Washington with the expectation of implementing an aggressive downfield passing attack. Seattle finished 14th in total offense (332.2 yards per game) and 18th in scoring (22.1 points per game) as quarterback Geno Smith faced consistent pressure and the 28th-ranked run game provided little support.
After the Seahawks beat the Los Angeles Rams to finish 10-7 in Macdonald's debut campaign, Smith backed his offensive coordinator.
"I think Grubb is an excellent coordinator and an even better man," Smith said. "Our first year, obviously there were some ups and downs. There were some things that we can improve on, and we'll work hard to get those things fixed. But I believe in this system. I believe this is a really good system and it's going to be really good for a long time."
When asked if Smith would return next season as the team's quarterback, Macdonald said Monday, "Got no reason to say no, so I guess yeah."
