Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
 

For those who are concerned that it looks like we settled, the reality is that we don’t know. But I’ll say this - Peters has a record that speaks for itself, and to me, this feels like being excited about buying a specific car but making sure to test drive other vehicles to help either validate your choice or see if you can be pleasantly surprised to go in another direction. And not being driven by FOMO seems like a better approach than the stupid random shit we’ve endured for the last quarter century. I’m in wait and see mode with a dash of optimism. We don’t have Snyder or any of the clowns he surrounded himself with.

I think Jazz is pretty bad, due to its irrelevance to Utah, although a bunch of mormons wearing sunglasses with their short sleeve button downs playing saxophone in a smoky bar makes me laugh.

Yeah, it was a great name for the original location, but now it's irrelevant. But the name itself doesn't suck. Guardians and Commanders is dog-shit worldwide.

Thunder has grown on everyone but it also helps they have had big time success.

Commanders is bad, worst in the NFL. Some folks thought the Texans was shit...

as for OC . . . I think the OC will come from the 49ers staff . . . either Kubiak or the TE coach Brian Fleury . . . Fleury would be my first choice as he knows that run blocking scheme very well and has risen up their coaching tree quickly. Is considered EXTREMELY bright and an up n comer!!

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
 

We're never going to truly know who was first and who was second, unless Josh Harris says it publicly, and honestly I don't care, and no one should care as well.

Johnson may have been a favorite, but Keim said that it wasn't a situation where he was THE guy like it was with Peters. No team got a chance to make an offer on Johnson, and he stood up the team for the second interviews.

MacDonald and Quinn had their interviews on the same week, and around the same days. Keim and others had reported that ownership's plan was to finish the interviews on Tuesday, and make a decision at the end of the week. They stuck to their plan.

Again, people are going to want to create their exaggerated doom scenario in their head. But to me, they went with their plan, and got a HC they wanted.

Anything we hear from the likes of Florio or all these other TMZ-like reporters, is clickbait to get fans riled up for nothing.

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
 

Just thinking this out, a rookie head coach on a really crappy team is a bad combo. So it is possible we dodged a bullet. But from that standpoint, I am not sure we got the best availability ex NFL head coach, hell, we didn't even interview 3 of em. I am still pissed am may forever be pissed that we hired some asshole with a star in his cap. Dallas sucks and I don't want anything to do with them. What is so hard to understand? Doesn't this owner give a shit what the fan base thinks? WE WANT DALLAS, WE WANT DALLAS!! WHAT THE HELL? We want to DESTROY THEM, not marry them. And to top it all off, he is marginal, as his record shows. I hope this guy gets fired before he walks in the damn door. It is just shitty. I believe in hating Dallas first, even at the expense of winning, because that won't happen anyways. Not the Superbowl anyways. Anyone here think Dan Quinn can take any team to Win a Superbowl? He couldn't do it with Shanahan calling his offense with a pro bowl vet QB, It definitely seems like Rivera 2.0 to me, plus the stain of the enemy. UNCLEAN! UNCLEAN!

But it would be pretty funny to steal their D.C. then go 2 and 0 against them next year with him. Imagine how salty Cowboys fans will be after the playoff game this year going to shit and losing to us next year? Laughter is the best medicine.

Can't wait for FA to open up. I want to see Peters in his best skill-set, player evaluations and acquisitions.

Let's see: you're upset because we didn't interview two former HCs, I assume you mean Vrabel and Belichick. These are two coaches that are going to want final say in personnel decisions wherever they (see BB not being hired in Atlanta for that reason), like the Ron had when he was head coach. Yet you're saying that Quinn is going to be Ron 2.0?

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
 

I'm thinking if Kelly was the choice for OC, wouldn't they hire him now? I think they are going to wait for a 49er assistant to become available after the SB.

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
 

[quote=BaltimoreSkins;1358481]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.[/quote]
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.

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
 

Ruhskins Made a comment that is spot on .. he said "we got a head coach we wanted" NOT We got THE head coach we wanted ... huge difference! Yea Quinn's name was in the Mix from day one and it took several circumstances for him to end up as Head coach .. Johnson seems not ready and somewhat of a head case .. and MM just decided on seattle , We were still left with one of our top Choices! I tend to believe we dodged a bullett with Johnson He obviously is not ready for head coach and I'm glad he ain't here ! I'm on board with whatever they do and we will see ..

Good listen - ex-Seahawks LBer KJ Wright on Dan Quinn.

I like some of his suggestions like Quinn should still be the defensive playcaller. All the hot new HC's mostly still do the things that got them the job in the first place, like Kyle S, Matt Lafleur, Sean McVay, etc.

Re: Our New Head Coach - Dan Quinn
 

Might as well get used to half the fans like the hire and other half don't ..every loss next year will be I told you so .. wins the same!!

My biggest question is WHY were we so enamored with Johnson to begin with ?? Yea he seemed like a young bright Offensive guy but with NO head coach experience how was that ever gonna work without huge risks.. I'm beginning to believe that We in fact were not sold on him 100% and it was all media driven!
If we were so set on him why was the other candidates all Defense guys ? Why didn't we have a backup plan for Another offense candidate? Glenn was D,Weaver was D .. other than Johnson was there another Offense guy we were interested in .. Let's see Johnson was O , McDonald,Glenn,Weaver,Quinn all D that doesn't sound like we were all in on an Offense coach to me ! Read into it what you want but it could be a clue or omen that we are not gonna go QB at the number Two spot... IF we don't are all you guys that are saying we gotta trust the new regime still gonna be good with that ? This should be interesting indeed..

They said from the beginning that they weren't looking for an offensive or defensive coach. They were looking for the best leader.
