For only the fourth time in the last 13 years, the Seattle Seahawks have a new offensive coordinator. Former Washington Huskies OC Ryan Grubb has made the jump from college to the NFL, and with him brings a certain level of excitement not felt for this position for quite some time.
Grubb’s offense was dynamic at Washington for the last two years, and now he has an opportunity to show what it can do at the professional level. Of course, he will need an effective quarterback to lead it, and it seems he might have one.
Grubb was effusive in his praise for starter Geno Smith, who in turn has been nothing but complimentary of Grubb’s system. Seattle’s offensive coordinator recently spoke about what he likes in Smith, and it is everything you’d want a coach to mention about your quarterback, Kole Musgrove of USA Today's Seahawks Wire reports.
"He is a humble guy and he wants to be coached. If I give him feedback like "Move your feet that way." He would say: "Oh, let me try that." I love that he has a 'chip' on his shoulders in a humble way. Geno looks like in 7–8 years in the past, and he got robbed of that. He can't have those years back, but he works hard in the present. He comes in early every day, and makes sure everything is ready and right with the coaches and offense."
