jim mora jr Jim Mora Fired by SeahawksIt’s a rough day to be a couch as the Seattle Seahawks fired coach Jim Mora after one season, leaving the team without a coach, GM and president.

The team verified the move through a press release Friday, less than one week after Mora closed out a 5-11 season after taking over the team at the end of Mike Holmgren’s tenure.

“We’ve made a tough decision today,” Seahawks chief executive Tod Leiweke said. “It became apparent after conducting an extensive internal audit, that a new direction was needed to provide an opportunity for the organization to be successful. Today’s decision, while difficult, is part of the process in building a franchise with a new vision in 2010.”

Leiweke called Mora “truly a standup man, who gave his full effort to our franchise.”
