Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
I’m not gonna crush getting option C. But is it a win for Peters giving his 3rd option?

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
how do you know it was his 3rd option? I've been reading a lot of things saying the room (the committee) was split on Johnson. He was their original "A" prospect, but after his first interview some though he was not enough of a leader and needed more time. They also say McDonald was their top target after the initial first round of interviews, but that Quinn and Weaver were up near the top due to their leadership qualities that the team is looking for. Remember, the whole Peters press conference was around finding "a leader of men". If that is really what they were looking for, they found one of the best.

my top two were harbaugh and macdonald. Would have liked johnson, but I think the concerns are relevant on his experience/transition to HC. They interviewed Quinn 3 times, so actions say he was near if not the top guy on their list. He'd also have the largest network to fill out a coaching staff, which may have been part of it. That said, the last item on his resume is an embarrassing 28-3 loss. Maybe he's a Washington sleeper agent, and that was all part of the plan, along with bringing parsons over. |

Certainly not inspiring after 4 years of Ron - he seems to share the same qualities as Ron. Key difference is Adam Peters is in charge of building the roster. I just hope they have a plan - a certain type of player they're looking for, a certain mindset from everybody from the FO down to the coaches and players. They gotta be on the same wave, this is a problem we've had for years.

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
If he was plan B isn’t that still part of the overall plan?

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
The hiring of Rick Spielman tells me someone from Detroit was high priority.

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
no . . . you have to interview all of your candidates before making a choice, or you wouldn't have done yourself justice.

No to Shottenheimer, he's never done anything.

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
I put "need to see the coordinators" but if there was a "like it" option I would have selected that. He clearly fits the definition that Peters is using as a leader or at least that is what the GM has been telling their mouth pieces the last three weeks. I feel pretty confident you know what you are getting with him, after being in the league as long as he has there are no surprises. I think his upside is a McCarthy level head coach which is fine I will take winning seasons. He even made it to and won a SB with the right QB. DQ made it to the SB with the right OC and QB so...

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
I didn’t know Quinn attended College at Salisbury State, on the way to Ocean City. Maybe he was a regular at the Bearded Clam bar in OC.
