philibusters Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 1 minute ago, Riggo-toni said: All the "leader of men" stuff was said about Rivera 4 years ago. If we were forced to settle, Vrabel would have been a better choice. Whomever we draft at QB will be labeled a bust, Quim will be fired after year 2, and then we finally get an offensive guy who rehabilitates Drake Maye or whomever. Maybe this is part of Harris' plan to tank for the first two years so we can stock up on draft picks. From John Keim's podcast Vrabel was never an option. He clashed big time with the GM John Robinson who was fired last year. Then he struggled to get along with their new GM, Ray Carthon. That is part of the reason the Titans decided to move on. Vrabel would be a good hire if you were wiling to have a coach with GM powers like we had with Rivera. Josh Harris does not believe in that set up and hence neither Vrabel or Belichick were ever on the radar or got an interview. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYSkins21 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Starting to really love this hire. Especially knowing that DQ was a candidate from the start. Excited to see how he and Peters build the rest of the staff. Moving onward… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinC Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Not excited by this but also not disappointed. It’s not Ron 2.0 to me because hes not got full control, hes just coaching. Big thing for me is who is the OC going to be. That may have been announced but I’m swamped and not fully caught up, the OC and choice of QB will make or break this. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markmills67 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I for one would like to welcome Dan Quinn as the new HC of our Washington Redskins. And for the high % of you that hate the hire, give the man a ******* chance. HTTREDWOLVES 3 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted it as a pic and not a link. I thought the pic of Peter's saying GTFOH was funny. Edited February 1 by BleedBNG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCF Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 2 minutes ago, Skinsinparadise said: If all 31 teams were hiring and they all passed over Quinn. Bad look for Quinn. You all know exactly what I mean. Not a single team has been beating down the door to have Quinn as their coach for several years now. There's an average of 7 new coaches every year, none were chasing after him. Square that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illone Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 According to the podcast I embedded above, there is talk that Chip Kelly might be in the mix for OC. 😂 👀 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I'm enthusiastic about football season because...well, football season. I was looking forward to seeing what the Commies do out of habit more than anything, really. I love that Snyder is gone, the Peters hiring is great but I am markedly less enthusiastic about the Quinn hire as head coach. Anyway, someone put this together in burgundy and gold, please: 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simmsy Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 17 minutes ago, Skins24 said: You say this, but haven't explained this. What did they bumble? Hiring a GM first instead of a head coach? What exactly was the dysfunction that made national headlines? Ok, fair enough, we don't know what happened behind the scenes so I shouldn't place blame. I am going to say that it feels to me that they put all of their eggs in the Ben Johnson basket and then had to scramble when he rebuked the Commanders. Johnson definitely gets some blame in the way he decided to tell us he wasn't interested, but the front office absolutely looked like they were caught flat footed.

It seems to be that Quinn was legitimately their #2 candidate, and when their #1 candidate walked, they just went to the next name on their list. For better or for worse, I think this is what they wanted after BJ was off the table... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think time will tell but we're finally going to see what a competent GM can do for a team and its coach.

Looking forward to the fruits of their collaboration, and just so happy to have a real GM. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, are we trying to split hairs, or is there a true argument that lots of teams would have hired Quinn over the last few years if given the chance? Because I highly doubt the latter.

Just based on what little I've seen/read on this, seems like Joe Whitt Jr. may be Quinn's DC here, and Harris will be DC in Dallas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team has never had a traditional competent GM + competent coach setup since Gibbs and Beathard left in the 90s. The coach/GM such as Rivera didn't work, and the "GMs" we had in the past weren't anywhere near being competent...Cerrato, Bruce Allen, and Snyder himself who made the pick for Dwayne Haskins!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
