Could be he bombed his interviews and thought staying put was the smarter play. Digesting the narratives. And I gather its a sensitive topic on this thread. But I am over it. A. He didn't want Washington or Seattle B. Seattle and Washington didn't want him C. He genuinely decided he didn't want to leave for various reasons. For those pontificating for one or the other reasons, we don't know. It could easily be one of those three. I digested enough narratives yesterday from insider types to land on this take.

CapsSkins Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I have a hunch they’re poking around BB to understand how much control he’d be willing to relinquish. I think they’re talking to guys they hadn’t previously considered. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Command The 414 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Saying for a bit now, something about him makes me think that Anthony Weaver is the going to be a great HC in this league… and it might not be here for us but boy after all this stuff it almost seems like the pieces are falling into place and in our laps… get Weaver, let him bring Tee Martin or Greg Lewis over w/him as OC and call it a day… I think he’s got the it factor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, we might get a high draft pick again... Yes. It would be literally insane. The players cant stand him.

It would be a nice save with the fanbase and he is there 2-3 years to build this team up and then hand it off to a longer term coach yep, he left that to schnieder, the seahawks gm. pete did what he needed to do, and that was to coach.

You mean Belichick? He refused to compromise and that is why Falcons passed on Belichick 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wants to be coach, GM, owner, referee, concessions manager, and parking lot manager all at the same time.

Hey, we might get a high draft pick again... Literally how we ended with Zorn. At least Dan hired Shottenheimer, Spurrier and Gibbs before we got to an embarrassing point like Harris and company are at now. They look will like bafoons if they hire EB. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWJ Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 7 minutes ago, Skinsinparadise said: Judging by all the emotional reaction here. I think their best case would have been to hire Quinn first thing this morning if they do indeed end up hiring him. I've among others put on this thread to death that they really really liked Dan Quinn. And he was a serious contender. Now its forgotten, no one believes it. And they feel that this FO's coaching list was just like their list and they've been spurned. So if I am going to criticize them, i'll do it on this front -- they played the perception game poorly. But personally I don't buy all their smoke on Quinn was BS. We've heard almost as much smoke on Quinn than we have on Johnson. So if they end up hiring him, they should have done it like 9 am in the morning versus whenever they end up doing it. Agree. The longer they wait the worse this looks UNLESS like you said they are high on Weaver and think he's the guy and rated him over MacDonald which I would find hard to believe but I'm a fan not a millionaire minority or majority owner.

HeHateMe75 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 (edited) I've been thinking about everything that went down and honestly think at this point, maybe Quinn is the best hire left. That's just my opinion and I have no idea where he ranks with Glenn and Weaver. But I assume whomever is our next head coach (if it's one of those 3), that they will be calling the plays on defense. With that said, Quinn might be the best chance of turning it around faster, just based on his resume, compared to the other candidates. I am not saying I would be happy with the following scenario, but it might be the best we can do, at least for the upcoming season. Scenario: Hire Dan Quinn as HC. Retain EB as OC (yes I know....). Dan handles play calling on defense, EB on offense. Making sure that Quinn knows we are going heavy on offense in the draft and FA. Dan can pick the remaining coaching staff with Peters. EB gave me no reason to want to retain him as a play caller, but, with our current situation and most likely having a HC on the defensive side of the ball, it makes more sense than grasping at straws at this point. Through the draft and FA, we could really improve our o-line, snag a QB at #2, maybe grab another stud RB and TE. If it doesn't work, we upgrade the OC position next year.
