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 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.

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 search for Ryan Grubb’s replacement continues, and a pair of candidates have now been linked to second interviews for the open position.
