if for no other reason than I really hope that Schoen hasn't just set himself on Daboll from the beginning.
I have also come around on Quinn. He's not my first choice, but I can see what he brings to the table. It's not easy to coach a team to the Super Bowl in this league and if Kyle Shannahan can overcome the Falcons Super Bowl loss, I don't see a reason why Quinn can't.
Yeah, he really impressed me as well..I thought he was going to be here long term after year 1, with the way we finished, with the way the team kept fighting to overcome that 1-7 start..
I think Quinn would be able to bring a top notch OC into the fold. Rumors are it could be McDaniel from SF. Quinn is universally loved apparently so he should be able to recruit a top notch staff. Especially compared to a guy like Flores
and tired at the moment. Maybe I am suffering from Joe Judge syndrome, but the interview is much less important to me as opposed to the body of work. Dan Quinn has a great body of work as a coordinator, but he is on the defensive side and this is an offensive game. I want the guy controlling the team to be offensive in nature.
many have said they would want an experienced head coach for the Giants, so Quinn wouldn't be a bad choice. He's led teams to multiple playoff appearances and especially a Super Bowl. If he brings a very good OC with him, he may work. Don't see why many write him off so quickly.
I have lived in Atlanta for 15 years and it is firmly believed that it was Shanahan and his offense that took the Falcons to the Superbowl not Quinn. Quinn is supposed to be a def guru and yet his defenses in Atl were terrible. And they used a lot of high picks on def players. Most just failed. When Shanahan left for 49ers the team took a massive step backwards.

My sincere hope is that “really impressed” has more to do with the staff the coach has lined up vs the way that Judge “really impressed”, although it’s probably the latter

This although Flores is tempting. Seems like a legit coach already but Quinn stinks. His defense stunk. Lucky turnovers much like the 2016 giants defense. They couldn’t stop the run and they had a great offense which controlled the clock much of the season. Sal licata who’s a die hard flacons fan thinks he’s a terrible coach and not just because of the super bowl debacle

Agree with this take. The Falcons seemed much more reliant on their offense than defense, and I think Shanahan was a big part of it. If he does bring in a really good OC who has success turning this offense around, that guy is probably gone in two years for his own HC job. Now he has to replicate that success with another hire you hope is just as good.
if Quinn was smart enough to have Shanahan as his OC,

This is my concern with Quinn as well, but as with anyone, HC's can learn too. I just think the job he did in Dallas this year has been VASTLY overrated. 19th in yards against and 26th in points? Why should he be a viable candidate? It's not like the Dallas D didn't have talent.
It's clear it's all Schoen. You have a rookie GM hiring a rookie HC. I can't think of anything else that would make Mara freak out then that. Except if he ran out of Pepsi.
Yeah, he really impressed me as well..I thought he was going to be here long term after year 1, with the way we finished, with the way the team kept fighting to overcome that 1-7 start..
To Chicago talk radio on how they don't want Quinn either is it true he went 0-6 his last season before getting fired if so I guess he would fit right in here with the previous hires
An Irish Catholic guy from New Jersey impressed Mara?
Agreed, we should only hire coaches who can't interview well!

Totally off on this guy..
McAdoo with the suit and “the Duke?” 😎
Still view Brian Daboll as favorite. Spoke to people around league who would be surprised if he didn’t get job.
Heard Dan Quinn really impressed. Don’t count him out.
Brian Flores has supporters in building. Still a chance to impress.

In reading some stuff on him he seems highly respected around the league which also could assist in assembling a top staff.

This x1000

Herbert and Mahomes in division? Yeesh.

Sure, if there is always a few out there looking for a job.

Now that is funny..😂
Three strikes and they should be out.
If it's not daboll it means Mara's still in control and we are doomed.

So it’s unrealistic to think Schoen might like someone else?

Makes quite a few of us, Doc.
The name of the game is still “how to beat the defense” and who knows that better than a good defensive coach?
Need the best organized and the best leader. Really makes very little difference which side of the ball he came from.
