To Romo’s credit, it’s not like Dan Quinn is some well-kept secret. He was the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons for five seasons and after an impressive first year running the Cowboys defense, he got interview requests from six NFL teams for a head coaching job this past offseason. Thankfully, he chose to stay with Dallas in 2022, and the defense is once again helping keep this squad in games that the offense is barely handling.

During the Cowboys’ Week 2 matchup against the Bengals, the CBS broadcast showed footage of Quinn calling plays and Romo said that the DC “should be the No. 1 guy” that teams in need of a head coach look at this offseason.

Romo isn’t wrong, but we certainly hope nobody poaches one of the greatest things to happen to this franchise in many years.

The reality is that Quinn deserves a head coaching job. He took the worst defense in 2020 to the seventh-highest ranked defense in 2021 (in terms of points allowed). His defense lead the league with 34 takeaways last year and tied for the top turnover differential at +14.

Romo needs to keep his mouth shut when it concerns Dan Quinn. Romo may be right, but the last thing the Cowboys need is for all the other teams be constantly reminded of how good of a D-Coordinator Dan Quinn is, and especially be verbally enticed on national TV to go after him as a head coach. Hey, Tony Romo, talk about other things in order to fill your bank coffers. Stop talking about Dan Quinn!!!

Back when Jimmy Johnson was still climbing with the Cowboys, his quality Defensive Coordinator that had raised up the Dallas Defense, signed on with another team. Let this not be a reoccurance Jerry. Don't watch as your Coordinators ride off into the sunset, once again.

I'd love to see that. Mike just can't seem to inject the work ethics / grit into that team needed to win it all. I'm not saying Quinn would solve all our problems but he would have that part checked for sure.
No coach is going to succeed with Jones interference. Doesn't matter who you replace Mike with.

The whole league knows Quinn will be in discussions after the season. Romo is just following the crowd this year Last year he couldnt talk enough about about how great KM was and how he was the #1 HC prospect. He's trying hard to make people forget that projection.

And I guess you think Romo was trying to be controversial, since all the OP did was post the story.

There's homerism, then there's whatever the Hell you do.

I'm not happy at the prospect of DQ taking a job elsewhere either, but the OP isn't trying to get rid of him. Lighten up, Frances!

Come on, AC. Do you honestly think when teams start looking for new coaches, they're going to just forget about Quinn? Romo isn't giving them ideas they never would have considered.

Quinn is a secret
If Romo doesn’t talk about him no one will find out he’s good

I mean he is certainly in the conversation but to me the number 1 is and should be Eric Bieniemy. He was able to adapt to losing one of the best WRs in the league and the Chiefs offense has not missed a beat. Not to mention hiring someone off of the Andy Reid coaching tree is generally a good hire. If he is not every single teams number 1 phone call then those teams are messing up.

I guess in week 3, there isn't enough football to talk about they have to get this crap going again.
