Quinn’s record, including the playoffs, with Shanahan as his offensive coordinator: 21-14. Quinn’s record, including the playoffs, without Shanahan calling plays and designing schemes: 25-30. Quinn's success is totally dependent on his OC choice.

Quinn had success w/ Kyle. Why not Clint Kubiak? Why not go right back to that offense that you should have won a SB with? That to me makes way more sense. Way more.

I too would like a young up-and-comer playcaller, but if he is successful we'd have to deal with potentially watching him leave in a few years and replacing him. That's one of those good problems to have though.

That's a damn good problem to have. I'd like to have those problems.

I’m hoping for a San Fran coordinator or someone from the Shanny tree.

Zone Run game with good play action pass game.


Too me Chip Kelly is another thot

There is a reason why EB wasn't called for HC Interviews... Also why didn't LV or ATL hire him as an OC? Hmmm

I can't tell if this is spin from the FO or legit. I could see it both ways.

I would believe this as a FO spin had Johnson withdrawn from consideration after the second interview. However, the way he withdrew was just odd, not to mention the fact that Detroit didn't give him any monetary incentives to stay with the team.

I believe JP tweeted this speculation right after the news broke.

There were also a lot of rumblings on or about the week of the conference championship game that Johnson was not a sure deal.

This.

If Ben Johnson doesn’t want to be a HC, that’s perfectly fine. But just communicate that up front.

I'm trying to move myself up from the hate it vote to something more positive, so I'm going w/ legit. We didn't want that bussey Johnson here anyways.

In terms of how most hiring trends it is unconventional in that he seems to be more of the same. Recently it seems teams drafting a QB pair with a young HC that was an innovative coordinator. This is why I said it depends on the coordinators. A retread also banking their entire HC career on a team that is so far from being relevant is also unconventional. He has a small window to try to make this happen and if it doesn't succeed he is probably a career coordinator from here on out. Watching Quinn's interviews I don't feel he has the arrogance or cockiness that some hot shit has and thinks they have a magic button and will turn this franchise around. He knows it will involve turmoil and might not succeed.

Colin Cowherd (yeah I know) compared the hiring to Houston hiring DeMeco Ryans. He wasn't thrilled with it, because defensive head coaches don't have great track records lately but said the fit was understandable.

Pretty fair evaluation I thought.

I voted to wait and see the coordinators Quinn hires. That is very important to the success of any HC. Does anyone know if there will be a committee involved in these decisions?
