Mora Lands in Seattle

Recently fired Atlanta Falcons coach Jim Mora has become the Seattle Seahawks' secondary coach.

He replaces Teryl Austin, who joined the coaching staff of the Arizona Cardinals.

Mora was a finalist for the Miami Dolphins' head coaching job but it went to San Diego Chargers offensive coordinator Cam Cameron. Mora is a University of Washington alum and said in a radio interview during the season that he'd leave the Falcons immediately if he could get the job at his alma mater. That comment angered Falcons fans and team owner Arthur Blank and may have contributed to Mora's dismissal after three seasons.
