KDawg Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 What stood out to you about the personnel? His response was essentially, "Well, the DTs are good. And it all starts up front on both sides of the ball. And there are some speedy receivers." And then he looked at David Aldridge like he was finished and the next question was asked. 11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is in regards to the Athletic piece detailing our hiring process. I really doubt AP and the new FO would wipe their ass with their own reputation this early by leaking dirt to the media. BJ might find spoiled milk poured on the carpet in his office. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ball Security Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Whitt will call plays on defense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinews Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 I definitely don't want to undersell the self-awareness and capacity for reflection, especially after what we just endured. Despite the fact these things are relatively boilerplate, I would much rather listen to Quinn speak than Rivera, absolutely. Good vibes all around for now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice_of_Reason Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 For whatever it's worth, I liked the direct answer to the "who's doing what" question from Ben Standig. Basically said he's going to tie everything together, make sure that he coaches the whole team, but the coordinators will call the game. Ben then asked about QB, and Adam said "I'll take that. Shut up go away." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinews Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 My only concern is that I believe I remember someone, former player (Logan?) saying that when Quinn got away from the playcalling by delegating to the DC, things started going sideways. This person urged that Quinn continue to call the defense. We shall see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veretax Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 (edited) The Man I saw in that interview..... man I never realized how much Quinn looks like a Cross Between Stone Cold Steve Austin, and Megamind. But man, after hearing that presser, Did anyone else feel like even if they weren't paid by the team, that they'd go run through a wall right now for him? Man they weren't kidding on this guy's charisma. Edited February 5 by Veretax 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to be Dan's defense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veteranskinsfan Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 I would prefer Quinn call the defense and still be the head coach. Like with Joe Gibbs he was the Head Coach and still called the plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it matters that much as long as the coordinator is in lock step with the coordinator. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stone Cold Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Dan Quinn: From William & Mary to the Super Bowl Like many in the coaching line, Dan Quinn started at the bottom, working 60-hour weeks and doing the dirty work. Even at his first stint, he showed the traits—no-nonsense grinder, quick learner, good communicator—that would eventually take him and the Falcons to the Super Bowl…. https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/01/26/dan-quinn-falcons-coach-super-bowl-51-william-and-mary 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voice_of_Reason Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 EB gone. "Had a chance to talk to him today. We're not going to be working together here." That's a tough spot to be put in. You get hired and then immediately get to fire everybody who remained on day 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clskinsfan Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 1 hour ago, sinews said: the purpose of his tenure and entire reason he's there has simply run its course. Wright doesnt matter to me one way of the other. He has no impact on players or coaching. But isnt he involved in the new stadium stuff? Would make sense if he is deeply involved in that to keep him on board I would guess? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
