The Seattle Seahawks look to be ready to shift into a new phase behind a rebuilt coaching staff under head coach Pete Carroll but as of now, the only coach who seems certain to be out is offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell. While the team will be looking to fill that spot , a name that made the least amount of sense to fill it -- offensive line coach/assistant head coach Tom Cable -- emerged as an option.

But rest easy 12's, that unwishful thinking appears DOA. According to the Seattle Times' Bob Condotta, not only is Cable not thought to be an option for the job but he's been told to pursue other opportunities similar to what defensive coordinator Kris Richard has been told, leaving their futures in doubt at the moment.

The rub seems to be that whomever the Seahawks hire to be their new offensive coordinator will have the power to hire and reconfigure the offensive coaching staff; so while Cable may survive the initial purge, his job is far from safe in that regard.

While Cable surviving and Bevell getting the ax is ultimately still baffling, if the coaching changes do end up that way, the pillars of logic can rest easy knowing the team's oft-criticized offensive line coach doesn't seem to be in line for a promotion after his line sits as the main culprit to the team's lack of offensive production. More on that here.

The dust still needs to settle on his ultimate fate but that fact will have to hold fans over for now, as the team continues to sift through what moves to make and who to hire.
