Dan Quinn to be Commanders new HC per Schefter

[Captain-Crash]

Isn’t this basically the last HC they hired? Defensive guru retread who made a SB with a MVP QB as HC and did little else

yep but Ron didn't wear his hat backwards. Wearing your hat backward is a winner trait.

Sometimes guys come in, make a splash and really change a team. Quinn did. But sometimes a guy's shelf life is short and his was. Ownward

 

[WillieBeamen]

He may not have been the biggest problem but he was definitely not a solution when it came to playing against quality teams. His defense was a routine embarrassment in big games .

Not true. He had a bad game againt Green Bay, but all of his other playoff games he was solid. The QB is the problem

 

[Cmac]

I just threw up

I'm at the nausea stage.

 

[Sheepherder]

I think he wanted the head coaching job here and that didn't pan out. The last couple years or so, he's been out shopping around. Now he gets to go after Jerry. LOL

 

[WillieBeamen]

So, ONLY Dak cost them again this season?

Yup

 

[John813]

Much of this fanbase wants the two biggest reasons for our three straight 12 win seasons (The turnover margin created by Dan Quinn and Dak Prescott) gone. This fanbase is full of abject morons.

And the three 12 wins lead to a 1-3 playoff record. Same level of success in the postseason as the Clapper.

I know the real issue is above the coaches and players. But it's not like either Dak or Quinn have shown they are an x-factor in the playoffs. The sole win in the postseason was against AARP Brady and bucs team limping in the postseason.

Cool, can beatdown and pad stats vs the Skins and Giants. Turnovers galore vs the Howells/Jones-Mobster QB's in the division.

I'm all for some bad seasons if they can't get over this division round hump for a rebuild.
2020 was a mulligan. But the last 3 years have shown that this team is still a regular season team.

It will be Rivera or Zimmer - to bring fresh ideas to the table.

Not sure those are fresh.

 

[JohnsKey19]

Wow Rappaport saying Whitt is going to Washington with Quinn. Maybe Harris is staying after all?????

 

[Coogiguy03]

How's Micah lol

 

[Coogiguy03]

Not sure those are fresh.

More like funky locker room

 

[JohnsKey19]

Whitt has history with McCarthy at GB, so he likely would stay with the promotion to DC.

Oh well I was wrong. Whitt is heading to Washington.

 

[thunderpimp91]

As a cowboys fan I don’t love this. Washington feels like they are set up well for Quinn assuming they land a top OC. Quinn’s defense with Allen/Payne in the middle? This issues with his defense in Dallas is they were weak up the middle….that won’t be an issue in Washington.

 

[Reality]

Moore to Philadelphia, Quinn to Washington, so I guess in 2025 the Giants will hire McCarthy?

 

[Coogiguy03]

Want to see how this unfolds

 

[tm1119]

Vrabel. Done

Highly doubt Vrabel wants to come here as DC. There were rumors that there was a power struggle with the GM of the Titans…even if he was promised HC if McCarthy gets fired after the year I doubt it’s a good fit. Vrabel wouldn’t tolerate Stephen picking his players for him….like most good coaches wouldn’t

 

[TwoCentPlain]

I'm happy Quinn is gone.
Had Quinn called a good game against GB, he would have been gone and Cowboy fans would have been crying.
Quinn got a promotion even though he had a horrible scheme the last game. That surprises me, but I'll take it.

 

[rags]

Now, if the Giants could just hire McCarthy.

 

[Captain-Crash]

"building back better"

 

[SlammedZero]

I don't hate DQ. I think he did some great work in Dallas and helped turned some things around. With that said, I do think his time here kind of ran it's course. A fresh face could be a good thing.

I would wish him luck, but he went to a divisional rival. Yuck.
