Offensive line led to Patera’s pink slip SEATTLE (AP) - Bob Newton, who played for Jack Patera with the Seattle Seahawks for six seasons, thinks he knows what caused Patera s downfall as the Seahawks head coach It wasn't the controversial release of Seahawks' player representative Sam McCullum and the storm of protest that followed, Newton contends That storm of protest included the informational picketing of Nordstrom s downtown Seattle department store by protesters who felt McCullum was waived by Patera because of his union activities The Nordstrom family owns 51 percent of the Seahawks It also wasn t Patera s inability to get along with sportswriters, adds the former Seahawks' of fensive lineman Pro football owners, de clares Newton, will put up with an awful lot if you're winning," So what caused Patera s demise? If you want to single out one thing,' Newton assesses, you have to look at the turnover in the offensive line If you're go ing to start a pro football fran chise, you start first with your offensive line We had a tremendous offen sive line in 1978 and 1979 when we went 9-7 both years Then they started to tamper with it For what reason, I don't know But our offensive line wasn't the same after that and neither was our team " Newton 33, a guard, played 11 seasons in the National Football League In 1980, he was selected as the Seahawks' Lineman of the Year by Norm Evans, who publishes the "Seahawk Report' and is a former Seahawks' offensive lin eman himself When the Seahawks went 9-7 in their third season, Patera was acclaimed as something of genius Never before had an expansion team compiled such an impressive record in its third year Patera was picked as the National Football League Coach of the Year by the As sociated Press following that 1978 season The Seahawks' offensive line in 1978 was made up of Nick Bebout, Tom Lynch, John Yar no, Steve August and Newton Bebout departed before the 1980 season in a trade with Minnesota Oregon Dally Emerald Back-up quarterback leads AFC ‘all-stars1 LOS ANGELES (AP) - Ed Luther of San Diego fired a 54-yard touchdown pass to Seattle's Theotis Brown with 12:29 remaining Monday night, giving the American Confer ence squad a 31-27 victory over the National Conference team in the second National Football League Players Association sponsored all-star game The contest at the Los Angeles Coliseum — the home of the Los Angeles Raiders — was p ayed before an an nounced crowd of 5.331 and was televised nationally by the Turner Broadcasting System The seating capacity for Raiders home games is 70,000 Some 15 minutes before the kickoff, Coliseum General Man ager Bob Hardy said upon en tering the press box, "Gee. there's more people up here than there are in the stands " Luther, who backs up Dan Fouts with the Chargers, com pleted 10 of 18 passes for 180 yards and two touchdowns The game was billed as an AFC West against an NFC West affair, but players from all six NFL divisions took part The first of a series of NFLPA all-star contests was played Sunday at RFK Stadium in Washington, D C.
