Commanders hire Joe Whitt Jr as defensive coordinator

[plymkr]

I think this is setting up belicheck to be our DC this year and HC next year.

Next year is a wasted season. Might as well sit back and enjoy the entertainment. That's what Jerry wants.

What fantasy world do you live in. There is no job security in the NFL!

He could stay in Dallas for a coach on a 1 year deal or follow his friend on a brand new contract.

That’s considered the best version of NFL job security

It’s great entertainment!

Love it honestly. I want Harris Vrabel or Zimmer

 

[JBS]

One day you guys will learn that this source isn’t credible

At all



Not saying he won’t go to Washington - but it’s not done

Love it honestly. I want Harris Vrabel or Zimmer

Zimmer been out too long. IMO... Al or Vrabel... Vrabel runs a 3-4 I believe. Dallas is not equipped to run a 3-4. And Vrabel would be a direct threat for Mike's coaching job if things turn south. Thus Harris ..IMHO...would be the best choice moving forward. Vrabel is not going anywhere. Things go south? You could hire him 2025.

U jumped the gun on this one buddy…..still possible but not final yet. Where’s the former producer of talkin’ cowboys when we need news

 

[Coogiguy03]

No! He's still under contract.......can only leave for head coach or coordinator job w/o Jerry's approval

Dang that's a tough one then

 

[Mark]

So, Al Harris as Defensive Coordinator?

Everything I read reaffirms that Mr. Harris is amazing at what he currently does, while also suggesting he may not (yet) be entirely qualified to function as the #1 X's & O's/scheme guy? What's the skinny on that?

Can he leave if Jerry lets him??

They have parts of a 3-4

Hank and Mazi at NT, Tank DE

Micah, Overshown, Willams at OLB

LVE, Clark ILB

 

[Thorn]

I hope Quinn takes the entire defensive staff, OL coach and RB coach with him.

 

[MikeT22]

I

It’s great entertainment!

It sure is. Jerry is the ringleader of this circus

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Can he leave if Jerry lets him??

Yes....if Jerry lets him out of his contract

 

[IceStar-D7]

They have parts of a 3-4

Hank and Mazi at NT, Tank DE

Micah, Overshown, Willams at OLB

LVE, Clark ILB

Hank is old and been injury prone. Mazi has to gain back 40 pounds.Micah can't play IMHO at DE in a 3-4 ...no way...way too light in the pocket. Overshown coming off a serious injury. Knuckle head at LB...no....LVE is done IMHO...neck injury way too bad. Clark...nope...Just my opinion. Hope you're right..

My guess was based upon the "we like our guys" philosophy. I've also heard his name along with Vrable and Rivera mentioned as the likely candidates.

 

[Bigrandrn]

Sure I can. You see that zone we trotted out a couple weeks ago?

On purpose..Quinn was like “let’s get out of here fast, let’s put together the worst game plan possible that goes against what we have done all year (man coverage), make no adjustments, go small personnel when they go big, lose the game, and bolt to another team”. Crazy

 

[rags747]

so I gotta ask.. Does Dallas get a Comp Pick for losing a minority Coach

Shirley you jest my friend!
