This guy was a scout for 8 years and then he was promoted to Specials Teams Coach...………..so they are putting him back in the scouting dept.

Ok, I am willing to give the guy the benefit of the doubt and say he must be a decent scout if he was one for 8 years.

But that begs the question, why did we promote somebody to a position that they were clearly not qualified for? No wonder our Special Teams were the worst in the league, we basically just picked some dude at random and told him the job was his. What is next, we going to the mail room and playing paper, rocks, scissors for who wants to be the LBs coach?

This is not how professional sports teams are run.

Quinn was so bad that special teams would have been more effective with players running backwards.

What's next the equipment manager becoming our new tight end coach.

Responsible for one of the worst special teams units in the league and he gets shuffled to the scouting dept, instead of being told to walk.

If you can’t put together 11 players out of your roster who can play, you are expected to go scout future players for this team...

Previous experience as ST or lack of notwithstanding this is another genius move by Jerrah.

which does not bode well for all of us wishing to see Garrett go...

Exactly. Teams should be able to sleep walk to 5-10 yards per punt return.

Our longest punt return of the season was 15 yards! 15! 131 total yards in 16 games

Oh no.. Keeping the country club in tact.

Expect minor changes all around.

Sure looking like it....A statement needed to be made within the coaching staff (Someone's head should have rolled)....And what are we getting? Excuses as to why we need to keep this circus going.....pathetic. :rolleyes:

I guess the new hc will not be allowed to hire his own staff. Business as usual at The Star.

Because he did such great work w/ Kai Forbath? :lmao2:....you can't make this kind of bufoonery up!!!!
Yea, it's thoughtful of Jerry to hire all of his new position coaches for his new HC (if there really is one).

Jerry to his new HC..........here, now go win with what I've picked out for you and if it doesn't work it's your fault not mine.

Dez got fired, Callahan got fired (sort of). You have to make the wrong people "uncomfortable."

Or have an expiring contract and no FO connections (position coaches with expiring contracts told to look for work elsewhere)
