I get being caught up in the passion of a downtrodden city that has been starved of success. But he could've got that here, too. If he didn't give an indication in his interviews that he might do this, it's even more frustrating. Still, there are candidates left and I will withhold judgement until I see the results on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) For all the Slowik mentions, the beat guys would have to be off if he of all people emerged. He's the dude among the interviewees with the least buzz when these guys talk about who this team is considering. Ben Johnson being out maybe shocks us fans. Heck Finaly said he got a text from someone he knows at the Senior Bowl and people are stunned there from various teams. But taking Keim at his word, it was never Johnson or bust with this FO so we should be fine. Edited January 30 by Skinsinparadise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaK9Trainer Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 9 minutes ago, UK Skins said: How can you do that twice?? Noone should even give him an interview next year. How ****ing unprofessional. Unless it IS about the money in which case **** him anyway. Yeah, to waste peoples time 2 years in a row is purely unprofessional. Make your decision before the interview process and stick to it. Perhaps its a blessing in disguise as it shows a lack of maturity. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curtisp5286 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Just to keep everyone on track, the options now are Slowik, MacDonald, Weaver, Glenn, or Quinn. Unless they start over interviewing new candidates all of a sudden. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and its not just wasted time but wasted opportunity, if one of the other candidate's already taken could have been your next choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Meh, people's minds change. I'm not gonna hate the guy because he had a change of heart. Better now than after an interview and stringing us along more. Its a business after all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if they met with Slowik again. But I think we're going to go defensive HC now... which really boils my biscuits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson comes off weird and egotistical to play it like this. I am against that team now too. the irony is I suspect at least one of the NFC East team jobs open next year so he might be coaching a division rival. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Yeah hiring a defensive coach is a bit of a kick in the nuts but I can live with it if its Macdonald. If its Quinn....blergh. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre The Giant Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 3 minutes ago, BurgundyBooger said: Adam Peters isn't working with Belichick. He came here under the guarantee of some autonomy or authority which Belichick will utterly wipe his a** with if he were brought here. Peters cut his teeth under BB in New England. John Lynch said BB respects Peters. Schefter said BB only wants to coach. Does BB really want to take a year off at his age? Not saying it will happen, just don’t think it’s impossible.

ThatNFLChick Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 So I am going to assume that Seattle's sudden interest in Macdonald was in part because of this. It never made sense to me that they went from not talking to him to flying to meet with him. I gather it was because they had some indication Johnson wasn't happening 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idaho fan Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 have to assume that we fans are a lot more shocked and let down than ownership & Peters are. They've probably known it could go this way for days if not weeks. They are keeping things incredibly quiet. We could all be shocked by the hire... Slowik hasn't had much talk. Still hoping its Macdonald at this point. Preparing for Quinn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Just now, Tress Is The Way said: I concur, we need an offensive coach Well, the caveat is we need a qualified guy to be the HC. If they don't think the O guys are qualified (or there are no O guys qualifed they can reach out to) they have to hire the best candidate. But it feels like we're going to be skimming the pool for debris a little now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
