srtman04 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 If we can land either Bobby Slowik or Mike MacDonald.....I'd be a happy camper. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let a up and coming DC who has the best D in the league have a shot if the best OC in the league has issues and turned us down. Right now, no one, not even Breer knows what's going on in Harris's, Peters, and management's minds so we wait. I get it. It's been a wacked out day to say the least, SIP.

Well if its Keim he's been talking up their interest in Quinn for weeks. Sheehan has a tie to the ownership, close friend of one if the minority owners. He mentioned on that Friday (actually beating Keim on it) he hears the GM hire happens that day and it did. He mentioned that this brass digs Quinn. I'd guess at a minimum Quinn has a strong shot. Feels like Quinn versus McDonald. Edited January 30 by Skinsinparadise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conn Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 2 hours ago, Warhead36 said: So Johnson interviews with the Seahawks yesterday. Clearly they were not enamored with him, or they would have offered him a job. Its possible then that his first interview with us didn't go that well. Or he got the vibe he wasn't gonna get an offer from us. And since he knows the Seahawks are no longer into him, he decides to bow out. I commented last night that it was surprising we didn’t get any SEA-sourced hype about their interview last night or a leaked offer if he was their top choice. At the time I said it, I thought that was good news for us bc maybe the Seahawks knew he wanted to be here. Maybe there’s something to this.

Est.1974 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Peters and Slowik have a very strong relationship. The facts it’s been quiet with him could simply be due to the significant delay in getting around to these playoff teams candidates. We have been committed to interview all possible high end targets, so it’s hardly a surprise we’re still waiting. Also, we’ve kept things well under wraps, not much info coming out. Professional and respectful to all candidates. Oh and yes I’m just trying to convince myself it’s not Quinn….. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not whom I want but I don't see him as a disaster. You were against Raheem and then digested it more and then you wanted him. As I mentioned back then the two candidates that seem to have the most buzz judging by Keim among others as being loved around the league as good coaches (among the ones they were interviewing) were Quinn and Morris. In that order. If I am running with things that Keim said he heard and Logan Paulsen's take from playing for Quinn -- the dude is an A level coach. Don't get me wrong, he's not who i want. But this wouldn't feel to me like a weird Zorn like hire if that's what he do. I'd feel no excitement if that's who they hire but I'll get over it. If its McDonald I'd be jazzed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceman Spiff Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 19 minutes ago, DJHJR86 said: Why is it a stronger possibility now? Because there's one significant name off the board. I don't know how many are left that are realistic or good for us. But there's one more off the board, thus making EB's chance (although slim) stronger. Look at this as a game of musical chairs, in other words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many OCs have been hired since the season ended? I just really really doubt it. EB won’t have ties to anyone. I just feel pretty sure that the new coach will have someone that he wants/prefers.

Belichick has liked quite a few people -- from his previous coordinators to players -- but only a couple of them said they could stomach working with him again, and only in the absence of viable alternative. There aren't many people better or available to implement a culture then BB. I never hated this idea and still don't. Long as everyone is on the same page with expectations.

Idaho fan Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Quinn is likely the odds on favorite at the moment. Several interviews. Reports of ownership really liking him etc. etc. Probably time to start preparing for a Dan Quinn hiring. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will take MacDonald - unknown quantity as a HC but someone who is respected and who has a high cieling versus a guy who has experience but is another .500 retread. What will make or break the decision though is who both are proposing to bring in as OC and offensive staff. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Familarity and hires are a double edge sword. The familiarity might be a boon and it actually might be a hindrance depending on the situation. If it ends up Slowik, they'd pull off a coup of secrecy because he's the dude that almost never gets mentioned as to who they are hot on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinews Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Personally, and like a lot of people, I like MacDonald a lot. But I just don't know what kind of staff this young man can put together, what connections he has. This is the difference with Quinn. If Quinn has the connections and respect around the league to fill out coordinators and staff with well-qualified people, well that may be the edge. All of sudden OC and to a lesser extent DC are paramount. My outlook this offseason is that HOG/GMAP have earned at minimum the benefit of the doubt. Clean slate. This time next year we'll have a lot more to go on. If it's Quinn, so be it. Maybe he's the stepping stone, the transition coach. If that's the case then maybe some of us pump the brakes on a quick turnaround. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he's older, but he can flip the culture of this place overnight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't say it better. We agree and we know that Keim and Schefter are spot on when they post. So, we wait. Raheem thus far, it's early has put together a good staff.
