Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Mora's decision came after Snyder sent a plane to fly him east and then hosted Seattle's assistant head coach and defensive backs coach at his guesthouse during two days of interviews. Since he joined the Seahawks last year, Mora has been viewed as a possible (eventual) replacement for Seahawks HC Mike Holmgren. The 59-year-old Holmgren is spending the weekend in Arizona with his wife contemplating whether to return for a 17th season as an NFL head coach. Holmgren, who would like a contract extension from the Seahawks beyond 2008, said he "perhaps" will make a decision next week.
