We don't want Quinn unless it brings in Russell Wilson.

We want Doug Pederson.

Doug Pederson is my first pick. I don’t care about his last game as an Eagle; he said he was going to play his backup QB’s in the meaningless game, and that’s what he did. Broncos fans are just mad because it cost us a draft spot or two.

Bottom line, he won a SB with a slug named Foles. His team went to the playoffs 3 of 5 years. Is known for developing young QB’s, and wasn’t his fault Wentz was perpetually injured.

I would much rather go after him than get some young offensive whiz that is green behind the gills, and we have to fire in a year or two because he’s in over his head as HC.

This is pretty compelling. He might now be my favorite for us. Why is he available though?
Leftwich I am very intrigued with. I like the former players. Those that can play. Those that cannot coach. Leftwich is a little of both, likely better at coaching than playing. I feel he could really help develop Qbs.

Why does Quinn bring Russell Wilson. What is the connect?

He was DC in Seattle a decade ago.

The reports are that Russ is very fond of Quinn. Apparently they're good friends.

Or does Seattle can Pete Carroll and hire Dan Quinn?

If they were smart they would.

Pete Carroll is the most punchable HC in history.

Pederson, Pederson, Pederson.

I thought it was when McDaniels was HC?

Well, he’s available because he took a year off after GM Howie Roseman made him the scapegoat for the last game of 2020. Also, my understanding is that he had a power struggle with Roseman that of course he would lose.

Whichever coach cAn get us russell Wilson is the coach I want!

Dan Quinn would be the most likely, and apparently they are close. But I don’t see why a guy like Doug Pederson or Hackett wouldn’t be attractive to either a Rodgers or Wilson. I say get the best coach, then go after your preferred QB.

Not that it means much but Seattle just said there’s no way they’re trading Wilson.

If you think about this objectively there’s a Lloyd Christmas chance of getting either of them away from their teams.

It’s going to be Kirk Cousins, imo.
