The Seattle Seahawks are currently in a serious crisis. Head coach Pete Carroll admits to US journalists that he is more frustrated than ever and doesn’t know how to deal with many failures
Munich – A year ago, the Seattle Seahawks won the NFC West with a record of 12-4. Currently, the team is in free fall. Three wins and seven losses mean they are currently in last place in the division.
They also suffered a bitter defeat in Week 11. Although the Arizona Cardinals started without quarterback Kyler Murray, the Seahawks lost 13:23. Especially for Pete Carroll, the massive downward trend is hard to bear.
After the game, he was asked by US reporters at the press conference whether the current situation was the most frustrating he had experienced in his eleven years with the franchise. The answer was clear: “Yes, absolutely!”
Carroll apologises to journalists
And the 70-year-old specified. He said that all other times were “not even close” to being as difficult as the current situation. It is above all the handling of the many defeats that causes the head coach problems.
“I’m just not good at it. I’m not prepared for it. It’s hard for me to do a good job as a coach when you get your butt kicked week after week. It’s new territory, it’s just unfamiliar to me.” Incidentally, Carroll left the PK early, saying, “I’m really done, I’m done. “
Later, however, he returned and apologised to the journalists for his premature departure.
