Kalu44 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 17 minutes ago, method man said: It says something that Quinn has not been announced yet. Doubt they love him. I wouldn’t be surprised if they are back to the drawing board The FO is probably just trying to find a way to "break it to the fans" with the Quinn hire, in the best light possible. Not an easy task.

BurgundyBooger Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 You know what, I change my mind. If Quinn can come here after years of enjoying Dallas's state of the art facilities and dangling showgirls, look at our dilapidated stadium, our roach-infested training grounds, and agree to HC here, then maybe he does have the grit we're looking for. 1 15 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander202 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 2 hours ago, KDawg said: It’s also entirely possible that they would hire Quinn because he’s the best of what’s left in their eyes. Just because they aren’t dummies doesn’t make them immune to being boxed in and having to make what they perceive to be the best of an awful situation. We’ll see. I think Weaver does most of the front work for the Baltimore D and he has a good rep and isn’t a retread. After him I’d rather hire Belichick. Quinn is by no means DOA, but just as many are defending that move if it occurred and not listening to feedback, the same is the other way. I don’t think anyone will convince anyone. The only thing that can is time. I agree with this post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have to wait until after the Superbowl, teams can not interview coaches while teams are in the playoffs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander202 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 (edited) I’m gonna be honest but BB probably the best choice . - Defense in NE been solid for a long while - He does not want power anymore for any GM moves . - Josh Mcdaniels likely comes and he’s an upgrade over Eric B This would be like the Doc Rivers move for Harris. And down the line we can find someone better but right now this is probably the best move . Wouldn’t be surprised if they interview him at least, I can’t see them just settling just yet . At this point other than Weaver all the other candidates are over 50. Edited January 31 by Commander202 1 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxprodigyxx Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 i've accepted the probability of dan quinn being our coach. not what i wanted, but whatever...maybe he will make lessons learned pay dividends. now i'm more wondering what OC candidates are out there.

kingdaddy Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 18 minutes ago, Idaho fan said: They might love him. They might have offered him the job. Perhaps Quinn wants $10+ mil /yr. and a 6 year contract and they don't want to give him that.. yet. It could be that this ownership group doesn't want to give what these coaches are wanting and getting from other teams. That would explain a lot. I hope ur right...6 years for a head coach who hasn't proven anything seems like too much. Gotta draw the line somewhere. How bout 4 years with a 2 year coach option if you make the playoffs in year 4 if not extended sooner by ownership? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbo Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I admit I may be in a fan island but the disrespect I see BB getting from many fans on the internet and others outside the league, and their reasons being "all he was is due to Brady" and " look how bad they did the last three years" is pretty flaky overall. Those two points are worth due consideration but they hardly justify the conclusion that he's some low value coaching option. 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really impressed with him at all and I think it would be good for BB to find another genius to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever hires BB will be getting a guy who's particularly motivated to prove it wasn't just Brady. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he decides he's ok with a GM doing GM duties and himself just coaching. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Consigliere Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 49 minutes ago, HigSkin said: Pretty sure I heard the same thing about Norv Turner and Ron. I don't know how genuinely valuable this is. I think it's great, if they're great, but if they're an unknown still, or a known mediocrity. Honestly who gives a -----. I mean, didn't Mike Smith do exactly the same thing as Quinn basically at Atlanta (win big, choke, and lose season to season). I mean, that's kind of lazy, but it's not that lazy. Hell Mike Smith was 66-46, and Quinn was 43-42. Same place, similar players, similar problems. I'm just not sure what makes Quinn actually special? Turning elite talent into a top 5 defense? Why should that impress me exactly? I don't know, I just don't find this quote helpful. People don't hate him or retain skepticism for that. That would be lazy as hell, it's more for 43-42 in Atlanta w/a franchise QB in place. Not great. I have no idea if he's good or not, but the available evidence is that he's no different from Ron. Had a ceiling season, and then was mostly crap otherwise, despite having a legit franchise QB in place throughout his prior stop. Again, why is that any different than Ron, who was also well liked supposedly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
