We probably have 2 months left with the guy who Parsons called a "father figure" the other day. I don't envy Quinn's replacement because the current locker room seems deeply connected to him on a personal level. I hope Jerry Jones realizes the urgency of the moment. The guy who hired Rob Ryan, Monte Kiffin, Rod Marinelli, and Mike Nolan finally struck gold on a DC hire. I don't care about the future, we have to go all in on winning now before this man leaves.
Everyone, old boy, seems sold on Quinn. And for good reason. His D has gone from worst to good, except against the run.
But there is a cult building around him, a cult that says
if we don't keep Quinn he will walk. We need to reward Quinn, double his salary and make him asst. HC. We need to do what Micah tells us to do, and that is to keep him here at all costs.
The man seems to know his business, yeah, but there are 100 other coaches out there (not 500 as Jerry would say) who can do an equally credible job. Analytics will tell you tha.
So love the man but put away the palms as he rides into town with constant hints by him as to how ready he is to bolt.
Hope Jerry does move to keep Quinn here, but all things in moderation, chaps. Don't be hopeless homers. Quinn, like Richard some years ago is the latest rage and it seems somehow hip to say how great Quinn is for now. But let us see what his vaunted D will do the rest of the season.
Steady as she goes, boatswains. Rudder east at 20 knotts easy on the port steerage.
