Of course Davis has slammed Cable as he's leaving, and, has already withled $120K in pay over the year.
1/2 for former AFC west coaches; indications that McDaniels did "snub" Seattle in some form. Not sure why yet, as mentioned, St. Louis talked to him on the weekend and only now after talking to Seattle last few days, including this morning, he went back to St. Louis. Using SEA to get more money from the Rams? Not liking having to work with Cable? Maybe just changed his mind after further thought?
Whichever, but the timing points to Carroll thinking they had a guy in mind and they thought possibly in hand, before going ahead and firing Bates this morning.

Or the fact he gets to work with a team on the upswing with better coaching staff, and a guy named Sam Bradford. This was it Seattle for the foreseeable future, now that Bradford has arrived its the Rams time to shine once again.
