Canfora: Bevell and Quinn "frontrunners" for head coach jobs

Haven't seen this yet.

http://blog.seattlepi.com/football/2014 ... minnesota/

"Speaking with Mitch Levy during his weekly segment on KJR-AM Wednesday morning, La Canfora revealed that Quinn is the leading candidate to replace Mike Munchak as head coach of the Tennessee Titans while Bevell remains at the top of the list to replace Leslie Frazier in Minnesota."

I'd love to keep Quinn around, as I'm sure everyone would. But, I am sure Pete will find a great replacement if he does indeed leave.

Very strange that Bevell is the favorite for the Minny job, I didn't know they loved him when he left.

On Bevell, they just wanted him to go learn under a real head coach for awhile :stirthepot:

I do like consistency when things are going well, but hopefully we can draw good talent at the positions as this would be a premium gig for anyone wanting to upgrade their resume with a coordinator position

Seems premature. Neither team has even finished interview rounds yet. Titans have barely gotten started.

Please God, let Quinn stay another year.

I think Quinn going to the Tits would be a huge mistake this early in his career.

He will get better offers with a year or two more where he is.

Yeah, Radish; I agree. He is very young. Sit and learn. I mean, you're coaching the best defense in football on a winning team with a head coach who has no problems with you wanting to move on to bigger and better things when you want to.

I don't know why ANYBODY would be in a rush to leave a coordinator gig from the Seahawks while Carroll is here. Most coaches fail the first time around, and many even the second. Maximize your chance of initial success.

Every Vikings fan I've talked to out here seems okay with Bevell as their HC. They just couldn't stand Childress.

Losing Quinn would suck. He's a perfect fit as our DC.

One good thing about this situation is that Pete is churning out head coaches and candidates at this point which should bring top flight talent to the team in the future because it's a fast track to a HC gig. Not to mention, who wouldn't want to coach this team. They make you look really good.

Bad for consistency however. Although I do think Pete does a pretty good job of coaching the coordinators on what we're doing here and how.

Hope he thinks the way you do, Radish.

The thing that should help w/ consistency is that the position coaches don't turn over like crazy. That's who the guys spend the most time with.

Coordinators are probably given a framework in which they have enough freedom to work and do their thing but I can guarantee that from a defensive standpoint in particular, Pete is setting some parameters for how games will be called. Same on offense.

I'm just gonna keep saying it...you'll all be disappointed when Pete just hires another Bates/Bevell clone as OC.

There will be a Pete Carroll coaching tree one day.

No need to stir the pot.

You said the same thing last year about Bradley and were wrong. Quinn > Bradley and it's not even close. IMHO Bevell set the bar pretty low for the next guy. Just my .05 worth of course.

I don't care, I just want to win the super bowl.

What are the chances Tom Cable takes the OC job if Bevell goes?

Hopefully 1%

If Bevell leaves, hopefully Pete Carroll nabs Hue Jackson with the quickness (though its said he'd become OC in Cincy if Gruden leaves)
