If you were Atlanta, would you rescind your offer to Quinn based on the catastrophic and unprecedented collapse of the Seattle defense against New England yesterday?

No its just one game in an excellent stint there.

I meant to post this in NFL zone. Sorry :/

It just seemed like the Seattle defense this year was softer under Quinn than Bradley on the game's biggest stage.

They also let Edelman - who was an absolute nothing until last season, dominate their secondary.

Edelman has 197 catches the last 2 years. I get the feeling he did some of damage to quite a few secondaries the last few years.

It just makes no sense. You look at the guy - 5'10 200 lbs. Bit heavy. How does he get open when he has much faster people in the secondary covering...he's also not big like Gronkwoski

not giving the ball to a man named BEAST MODE is the reason they lost

Seattles Defense was pretty beat up that game and still,,,,all they had to do was run marshawn.

No, I would rescind the offer because he's the defensive coordinator of a team that runs it's defensive minded head coach's schemes. Why does he get credit for that? It's like giving credit to the defensive coordinator on a Rex Ryan coached team. And because a trained monkey could win with the players he has on defense. Was he responsible for getting those players? Why again is Dan Quinn such a hot commodity?

Absolutely not.

He had a banged up unit and it's not like the Patriots don't have a good offense.

The only thing I would be skeptical about Quinn is that Gus Bradley hasn't looked good in Jacksonville and I think Seattle's defense has more to do with Pete Carroll than the D-Coordinator. I think he finds good assistant coaches, but whether they are HC material is another deal.

No you wouldn't rescind your offer.... They played a good game with injuries across the board. It would be equivalent of us playing scandrick with one arm, losing Sterling Moore and Barry Church with a bad knee. They got eaten up on the crossing patterns, but they had two picks and had an opportunity to score at the 1yd line.... On the falcons perspective - do you want Kyle Shannahan to be your coach?

I guess you missed last year's Super Bowl. This loss isn't on the defense.

Who would you choose instead?

Bradley masterminded the defense last year, not Quinn. Bradley owned Peyton Manning. Brady, Edelman and Josh McDaniel owned Quinn.

The best secondary in the NFL shouldn't have issues with a guy like Edelman.

True, will be interesting to see if there is improvement in Jacksonville during Bradley's second year.

I for one was surprised he's 5'10". Just goes to show how big the rest of the O players are. For some reason I thought he was probably as tall as Beasley

I'm always skeptical of hiring the assistant/coordinator. Maybe this guy is the next Dave Campo. Atlanta is a good situation though, they have talent on offense at least.

Bradley coached the Jags last year.

No..if he was the guy you wanted before he should still be the guy you wanted afterward.

However I don't know if it will do them much good for a few years.

Seattle seems to run a vanilla type defense but they just have good players and make it work.

Atlanta is pretty bare on defense so they will have to build that up if they want to play like Seattle plays.

They were talking about in the game how they don't change much or show many different coverages they are more of we are better than you so we will beat you type of defense (did not work last night but you get the picture). This reminded me a LITTLE of the cowboys in the early 90's on offense...they knew we were going to run it down your throat and we still did it because we were better than the other team most of the time.
