Interview with our British D Line coach

[EastLondonCowboy]

Great interview with our D line coach Aden Durde. One of the main things I love about our team at the moment is there are so many great stories in our team of people in the organisation coming from nowhere and facing big obstacles or adversity to make it to the top in what must be one of the most cut throat industries on the planet and this guy is up there with them.
Understandably there questions on who this guy was but he has done a Stella job turning the D line from a joke into an absolute wrecking unit that can dominate on a regular basis.
Some questioned how could we be hiring a guy who who didn’t grow up in football but I suppose the other way to look at it is how good a coach must somebody be have to make it from north London to the biggest NFL franchise on the planet over 2000 miles away.
From the interview he comes across as very humble and his love of the game really shines through.
Either way I’m very very happy he made it and I’m hoping him and his mentor DQ will be here for a long time building on the success they have installed in the organisation.

Durde has done a great job these last few years. If Quinn does get a HC job, I can see Durde become our DC

He is British! I didn’t know that. Cool. I like him more now than ever. He is doing a great job with our defensive line.

An insightful interview.
What if the Cowboys make that deep playoff run with success...Durde could return to London in a game next season as a coach with the NFL Champions.
What a homecoming that would be!

Possible, but also likely Durde leaves with him to be DC under Quinn

 

[darthseinfeld]

Possible, but also likely Durde leaves with him to be DC under Quinn

I dont believe he can unless we let him. I think he can leave for a HC job

 

[Doomsday101]

Al Harris should be considered. I hope Quinn stays but no doubt he will get calls before season is over

Based on Sounds from the Sideline, I believe he comes from the Victorian era.

DQ was head coach for about 6 years in Atlanta. I think if he wanted another head coaching job, he would have taken one by now

Did they use the fancy font in the sub-titles...

True….maybe he doesn’t like the head coach role, maybe he REALLY enjoys calling D and not all the extra stuff with being a HC. I could see that.

..MM admits it's stressful job. You can see it on his face.

He rewards the defensive line with:

• Haggis, Neeps and Ta-Tas err I mean Tatties eats!

 

[Doomsday101]

I hope so but I think he would consider the right offer. One that gives him a major say in player brought in.

[HeavyBarrel]

Didn't we have a DL a few years back that was British? In fact he was so British he was classmates with the Harry Potter actor? Could have googled it, didn't feel like it.

 

[HeavyBarrel]

Al Harris should be considered. I hope Quinn stays but no doubt he will get calls before season is over

If DQ leaves, Al Harris would get the job if I had my say

You do realise he’s English not Scottish??

Joe Whitt Jr is Quinn's right hand man.

Our defense can be called the Durde dozen.
