I think they’re talking to guys they hadn’t previously considered. Hmmm. Well, Florio would be happy if we hired him. If it’s Quinn, just hire him now or else he may just go back Dallas. I don’t think he’s going to wait forever, especially knowing he could be Dallas’s next coach. He might just decide to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirt Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I've learned that none of us know anything. The buzz around johnson makes me never trust a speculative tweet ever again (shouldn't have in the first place) . And I know even less about which coach is best...why was Johnson such a great idea anyway? Because the lions offense was good? What else? Did we expect that to instantly translate to success in Washington? Macdonald, because he's a defensive guy our offense would suck but our players would like him? We all like the idea of a young coordinator coach like the guy on the dolphins and our very own Sean mcvay and therefore no to anyone who's ever been a HC before? We're all over the place. We don't know ****. Now we're angry about Peters not being firmly sat in some office for the last 48 hours? We should stay excited about him. Team building doesn't happen in 48 hours. A coach is like a draft pick in this NFL world. We will see. We loved Johnson because some people said so. He was flaky, now we say we didn't want him anyway. I like the idea of a diligent process. And again, none of it will matter if the new QB sucks. They're certainly keeping that in mind with this search, I'm sure. This "best destination" for a new HC with the high pick, the cap room, the new owner, the great GM...suddenly seems like more of a big undertaking and not a stroll down easy street. There are no easy streets in the NFL. So I suppose it's no surprise that we're taking longer than everyone else. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghedrick Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Maybe coaching canidates were told Harris wants to do "The Process" and they want no part of it. Maybe Peter's is a control freak and scared every good candidate off. This is awful and a total joke. It feels like Dan and Bruce all over again. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 4 hours ago, SoCalSkins said: You give a monkey a gun and he shoots someone you don’t blame the monkey, you blame the guys who gave him the gun. Quinn is who he is. He’s not an unknown. Peters and Harris played this like amateurs. Supposedly, Harris is such an experienced owner in sports and he looks like a complete chump right now. Had multiple coaches turn down offers. Not a good look. What are you talking about? They offered the job to none of those guys. They never even met Johnson and the Macdonald report posted earlier was fake, he didn’t have an offer from us. Slowik didn’t get an offer from anybody. Morris wasn’t offered the job. I’m not happy with the outcome of this process either but you don’t need to go into hyperbole “Bezos” mode. Nobody has yet turned down an offer because one hasn’t been made to the guys who went elsewhere (or stayed put). 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're clearly not an attractive option for younger coaches at the moment so please don't just settle on someone like Quinn at this point. Just my opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 This organization with the crap stadium, facility and roster is 100% on Dan. This is a rehab project. Some coaches I gather might be enticed by the complete do over, some might be turned off. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conn Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 4 hours ago, foreverskins said: Classic Washington. Finally, get rid of the scumbag morons only to replace them with just morons. It's clear they didn't have a back up plan if Johnson fell through. Now we'll be lied to and be told that Quinn was the man all along and somehow he'll succeed even though he won't be able to get a proper OC so we'll be back to this crap in about 3 years. Keim was reporting it wasn’t necessarily Johnson and that it could be Quinn (and that they loved Quinn) weeks ago. When everyone else was 100% on Johnson, Keim wouldn’t stop inserting Quinn into the conversation. Nobody likes it but Quinn sounds like he was the not-so-secret front runner from the jump. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazedSkinsfan Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 The speculation and comments here are hilarious. Comparing the new owners and GM to Snyder and Bruce is mind boggling........The more likely scenario is we got turned down because of our terrible situation left behind by those idiots 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both seem to want big money and years. Will be interested to hear the final numbers on Macdonald but he got 6 years. I don’t think there is any chance that they were negotiating terms with Johnson. They hadn’t even completed the interview process with him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're telling me they didn't know the roundpark figure of what Ben Johnson wanted before Det got kicked out of playoffs??? I'd be OK with Vrabel though We think we are #1 but in reality despite cap space and draft picks; we probably aren’t. Realistically , probably only a handful of roster would start on other teams. We probably are just a step above an expansion team. For young coach that might not be that desirable as their first job. Especially an offensive coach. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was said they did a reset this week with the in person interviews. I gather it might feel more even among candidates now or maybe someone new has emerged. Agree something seemed to have shifted to make Quinn the slam dunk hire with Johnson out of the picture. Or they are just sitting on this, negotiating the contract today and will announce tomorrow morning. But if nothing happens tomorrow, am doubting its Quinn 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
