RVAskins Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 It will be interesting three years from now looking at the records of the teams who hired new HC this off season. Who was a bust and who was a great hire. Will all of them even be with their teams in three years. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinsinparadise Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 (edited) “I think he does a great job of finding ways for you to love the game and finding ways to go around the game,” Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons said in January. “It doesn’t always have to be hard-nosed and ‘I’m the coach.’ I think it’s more of a friendship. We go through what I don’t like, what I do like. He doesn’t just treat me like a player; he treats me almost like a friend. He’s always there for me when I need him, and we’re not afraid to have those hard conversations, whether it’s father to son or player to coach. We have them no matter what.” Logan Paulsen, a former Washington tight end who is now a Commanders broadcast analyst, spent the 2018 season in Atlanta with Quinn. He remembers it as the most enjoyable season of his 10-year career. “Just the culture he was able to build,” Paulsen said. “... We’re taking it seriously, but we can enjoy each other and enjoy each other’s time. It all comes from him and his personality.” After he was fired in Atlanta, Quinn called Paulsen to get his input on what he could have done better as a head coach. Asked if he’s ever had a coach do that before, Paulsen said, “No. Never.” On the field, Quinn has continued to evolve and adjust to his players’ strengths. His defenses in Seattle and Atlanta were known for their heavy doses of cover-one and cover-three shells. In Dallas, Quinn emphasized man coverage and cover-two and found ways to disguise coverages pre-snap. Quinn interviewed for multiple head-coaching vacancies the past two hiring cycles but opted to remain in Dallas. In 2023, the Cowboys finished fifth in total yards, passing yards and points allowed. They held opponents to 20 points or fewer in 11 of their 17 games, and they seemed poised for a deep playoff run. But they fell to the Green Bay Packers, 48-32, in the first round. Quinn’s expertise will be vital in remaking the Commanders’ defense, which became a liability last season with a lackluster pass rush and leaky secondary. His choice of offensive coordinator could be one of the most important factors in the trajectory of the team’s future. Bieniemy has another year left on his contract, but after a 4-13 finish, the team may be due for a fresh start. For years, Washington has sorely needed an infusion of creativity in its offensive play-calling, but more than anything, it needs stability at quarterback after churning through 14 starters in the past 10 seasons. Quinn has deep ties to many potential coordinators across the league. One candidate could be Klint Kubiak, the San Francisco 49ers’ passing game coordinator and the son of longtime coach Gary Kubiak. Quinn had success with 49ers Coach Kyle Shanahan as his offensive coordinator in Atlanta, and Peters knows Klint Kubiak from his time in San Francisco and Denver. https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2024/02/01/dan-quinn-commanders-coach/ On the defensive side, Quinn will probably call plays, but that’s not a certainty; he only called plays part of the time he was the head coach in Atlanta. Potential prospects for Washington’s defensive coordinator vacancy include Joe Whitt Jr., the Cowboys’ secondary coach and passing game coordinator, and Joe Cullen, the Kansas City Chiefs’ defensive line coach. (Per NFL rules, Washington is prohibited from interviewing assistant coaches participating in the Super Bowl until after the postseason, and it must interview at least two external candidates who are minorities or women for coordinator roles.)

True, although I'm expecting most of our early picks to be exclusively on the offense. Can definitely see us being aggressive in FA though.

SkinsGuy Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 A good thing about Quinn as HC is he was the cowboys DC for several years, so he probably knows how to best stop the Dallas offense as well as anyone having conducted practices against them. Also being the cowboys DC, he has vast experience game planning against the eagles and giants offenses. Dealing with things in the NFC east will not be new to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
