Smashmouth Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 People talking about Dan Quinn and the bad defense of the Falcons but in some of the games I watched they made some big plays and some big stops as well at critical times. They are heading in the right direction as a defense and as team. Certainly they are much better off than we are coaching wise. Also they have Matt Ryan which is a big factor but they have had him in previous years before Quinn and had a few very poor years including last years drop off. It appears Quinn is growing nicely as an NFL head coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heymangold Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 i can't quite get behind this. Quinn inherited a team that had a good if not great franchise QB in his prime, as well as a top 3 WR. Bowles inherited an old team with a "great defense". the falcons defense is only good because their offense puts them up 15-17 points so quickly.

Another fine job by the Jets management. Yes he has a QB but Mike Smith had him and they never looked this good. He came from a winner in Seattle and was from New Jersey. Our miss again. I was calling for him when he was available and thought he was a good fit. Just our luck!!!!!!!!!!!!

Adoni Beast Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Falcons roster was loaded. Not taking anything away from Quinn. But Vince Lombardi probably would have only gotten us to 8-8 with this roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be_a_Jet Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 The whole matter of Quinn is sort of irrelevant because the Jets were never going to wait until after the Super Bowl to get a HC in here considering risk of being stuck with possibly terrible options if Quinn decided to go to Atlanta or anyone else for that matter. Imagine the Bills this year waiting >1 month to POSSIBLY sign a HC. Just too much uncertainty not worth the risk considering Bowles so highly regarded. I honestly don't like Bowles for multiple reasons but i dont blame Jets brass for bringing him on board when they did. Had to be done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TuscanyTile2 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I think the Quinn stuff is kind of laughable btw. There are coaches who can really make a difference (Belichick and Parcells come to mind) but Quinn hasn't proved anything imo. Does anyone really think the Jets would be in the Falcons spot right now had we hired Quinn? Is anyone convinced Mike McCarthy is a great coach? (not saying he's terrible either btw but just that it's easy to look good w/ a HOF QB). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Please this is a coach who squandered a 5-0/6-1 start last season. He took over a team with the best WR in Football and a very good QB who just had an MVP caliber season. The comparison isnt even close. Winning 10 games with Ryan Fitzpatrick is more impressive than winning 11 with Matt Ryan. And I think Todd Bowles is a moron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact of the matter is that Quinn went to a situation where he had a top tier caliber QB in his prime already in place. That's the biggest piece of the puzzle already in place before he even sets foot in the door. I'm not sold on Quinn yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
