ntotoro Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I remember when Marvin Lewis took the Bengals job, his reasoning that these don't come across often and... if you say no... people don't forget that ****. Be wise to remember that, Johnson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderInTheRye Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Ideally Slowik would be the perfect head coach for a young QB. However, he's getting absolutely no buzz and I wonder if he just lacks the personality or gravitas you need in a head coach. One thing is certain-- Adam Peters is well acquainted with his capabilities. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommandB11 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) These Ben Johnson reports coming out now remind me of the reports over a few years of Eric Bienemy. Look where that got him... couldnt interview well. Will likely never be a HC. Edited January 30 by CommandB11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redskinss Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 This is starting to feel like that space balls scene where everybody is scrambling for an escape shuttle. Mega maid has gone from suck to blow. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be wise to remember that, Johnson. We're kind of living that with Bienemy. If the Chiefs had lost a Wild Card game the last two years, he is possibly a head coach now. Now.....there's a real chance he will not be an OC anywhere next season. The NFL is weird. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazedSkinsfan Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 So this might sound like a stupid question but what's the big knock on Quinn?? Honest question here. I'm just going with the popular opinion on the guy, but he built a great defense in Seattle, took the Falcons to the Super bowl (yes I know it was the ultimate choke job) and turned around that atrocious defense in Dallas. I see tweet after tweet about him being one of the most respected dudes in the league, but it seems like nobody wants anything to do with him. Yet people fall head over heals for Vrabel, which I don't think any of his teams were even close to being contenders, good teams, but nothing elite. And before anyone says it, I am not advocating for Dan Quinn as our HC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His ceiling is known and not as high as the potential of some of the other candidates. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have drafted very poorly and lost player after player to injuries and continued to stay competitive despite that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but it is unprofessional to take a bunch of interviews, moving on a 2nd or 3rd with teams then canceling an in person interview last minute when you knew we were coming to Detroit to do an interview. I would have respected him more if he had the interview with us, then broke the news he was staying in Detroit an hour or two afterwards. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quinn's record as a HC is also... how should I say this, less than stellar. Perhaps he would be a better HC his second time around but it just feels like another Ron hire to me, fully realizing they aren't alike supposedly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I get it, I felt the same way after that game, and like mentioned above 5 years ago I would have been cool with the "safe" hire.....I guess my brain is trying to prepare my heart for us hiring Quinn so I'm just trying to find some ray of sunlight lol 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justice98 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Bieniemy probably comes back as OC because they spent so much time screwing around with Johnson. How many OCs have been hired since the season ended? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
