Despite the uneven work environment and significant injuries on a bad 5-12 team, Kubiak’s Saints ran the football with more effectiveness than Seattle did. That should appeal to Macdonald and GM John Schneider, who are searching for answers to their run-game woes. Kubiak likely presented those answers throughout his second interview in Seattle.

The Seahawks have yet to hire a new offensive coordinator, but two favorites have emerged with interesting ties for potential additions to the coaching staff.

The Seahawks Seahawks are flying Saints OC Klint Kubiak into town for a second, in-person interview. It’s looking more and more likely he won’t be returning next season:

The #Seahawks are doing a second, in-person interview with #Saints OC Klint Kubiak on Friday, sources tell me and @MikeGarafolo. Kubiak, who also interviewed for the #Browns job, is one of the top OC candidates available.

The Seattle Seahawks have scheduled a second interview for Friday with New Orleans Saints offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak for their open offensive coordinator position, per the NFL Network.
