How do you feel about Dan Quinn in Atlanta


Recommended Posts

He's probably going to be their next coach. The last Seattle DC made it to Jax, and hasn't done anything (though Jax is terrible top to bottom), and from what I hear, Quinne is much better than Gus Bradley was.

 

I'm nervous. Going from Seattle's defense to Atlantas is like going from top tier steak to shitty McDonalds dollar menu burgers, but he has stonewalled the Panthers the past few years.

He's very much an unknown. His defense is playing amazing but it's also stacked with a ridiculous amount of talent so who knows how he'll do when he's faced with having to build a D from the ground up.

 

He could be a good HC, he could flop horribly. I guess we'll see. Honestly though I don't think it will matter all that much as long as Atlanta keeps their dumb and dumber GM duo.

Remember, Rivera was once the impressive defensive guru.

Not that great lol

Two straight top 10 D finishes? Not sure how you define success.

To get a top 10 finishnafter how this team started to being a top2 defense after cutting guys was quite remarkable.

It's hard to say.

He's got a nice resume', but he also looks like one of those meathead Rob Lowe coordinators that are always highly sought after for jobs and then wash out because it just isnt for them.

So yeah.

There's also that whole matter of him being gifted the best Secondary in league history with a more than good front 7 in front of them.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
