Seahawks hire Greg Knapp as offensive coordinator under new head coach Jim Mora

Knapp joins Mora’s staff as offensive coordinator

A hint of Atlanta has surfaced in Seattle.

Just as former Falcons coach Jim Mora worked with his offensive coordinator Greg Knapp in Atlanta, the same arrangement now has been finalized in Seattle.

Knapp arrived in Seattle this week, once his Oakland Raiders contract expired, to begin working as the Seahawks’ new offensive coordinator, a league source said Wednesday.

This means that Seahawks quarterback Matt Hasselbeck will be working with a new offensive coordinator, as will Raiders quarterback JaMarcus Russell. And Knapp will not be the only assistant to leave Oakland. Word is that the Raiders staff is getting attention from around the league while Oakland has no coach in place.

Hahaha the dynamic duo of Mora and Knapp. I don't think much of Mora as a head coach, and he's an average defensive coordinator at best, but Knapp is outright bad. I absolutely loved Crappy Knappy's calls of "Hey diddle diddle, let's run up the middle!" on 3rd and long. Loved them. Loved.
