No name calling that I heard, but Rik man you are jumping off bridges and we have literally just gotten rid of Snyder, hired a respected GM, and interviewed every top candidate out there for HC. If our top choices (i said if) chose not to come here what the hell was Peters supposed to do? You are acting like he bought Zorn back and traded all nine of our draft choices for Ricky Williams. I mean take a deep breath and realize
Snyder is gone
Respected GM in place
9 picks - 6 in the top 100
Boatload of cap space

Ok Reset .. The Quinn hire I can live with especially now that he has hired a DC .. that makes more sense.. I think Quinn has leadership qualities that few have .. But with the QB position the most critical of all we have to get the Offense right and that means BALANCED attack .. About the time I'm processing all this I start hearing Chip Kelly ?? PLEASE enlighten me about how this is going to work if he comes on board ( I researched his coaching career and style and it's all over the map ) I'm glad you guys are on board with all these decisions however I'm just slow at understanding what they are doing ..

Oh, boy. Jayden Daniels running the old Oregon spread offense.

Well, they’re splashing around alright. It doesn’t smell right to me. In fact, it reeks of Snyder splash.

They better make deep waves in the Oline department, or that skinny kid is going to get killed back there running for his life. 🫣

Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn

It is amazing what better talent can do for Coordinators and coaches as well as the other way around . Thank God nobody named Cerrato or Rivera or Snyder has their say in this draft/ FA period for once.

I don’t really know if I am on board with the hires and will not know until I see the results. What I do know is that there is finally someone I trust in charge of personnel decisions and we happen to have a slew of good picks and a lot of cap space. Oh and Snyder is completely out of the equation. I can guarantee you that this upcoming team will be better constructed than the current one. I have waited 25 years for this nightmare to be over. I can wait 1-3 more until Peters and co have a fair chance to craft a new team.
Quinn and possibly Kelly may or may not be part of that team in three years, but if they are not there will be better coaches in place. The days of us being stuck in first gear with an owner nobody wants to come near and piss poor roster moves and stupid contracts are over.

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn

You guys gotta stop using Twitter as your sources. That's seriously terrible.

Chip Kelly would be an absolute terrible hire. I just don't see a defense first coach wanting that kind of offense- that doesn't control the clock and puts the defense back on the field quickly. It makes zero sense.

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn

I don’t think Chip still runs the two minute offense constantly. He has definitely evolved his game.

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn

Those worried about Chip Kelly are worried about the wrong things. We should be worried about:
A. At his age is he allowed to drive at night?
B. If we have a late game how will he get to the early bird at sizzler?

I don’t want to pay an OC for only the early games

That's funny but he is only 60. Not sure age is a concern.

Do we need him to take a cognitive test as part of the interview process?

"Chip, please identify these 5 things"

"Football, sideline, camera, gatorade, helmet"

"Very nice, you're hired!"

More importantly does he know what a gatorade stir spoon looks like? Personally I think this should be a joint responsibility for the new OC and DC. I am a firm believer you take care of the small stuff you don't have to worry about the big stuff. If we get the side line gatorade guy a spoon then Forbes will be able to play man cover and Sam will progress through reads faster. It all starts with the small stuff.

On a personal aside this moment, Leno and Norwell blocking each other and Zorn running the swinging gate play twice are moment s I like to go watch for a chuckle.

They did that man so fucking dirty. Couldn't even give the poor guy a damn spoon. Man Snyder was a giant fuck-stick.
