Regardless, I have high hopes for Quinn's abilities and feel it's a quality hire based solely on the merits of Quinn himself. Why would it faze the other guys? They worked with Quinn in 2011 (fulfilling the promote from within, albeit a year late) and they saw what he did at Florida as DC. I bet they're stoked to get him back. I know I am. (And I'm pretty astonished that it happened so soon, actually.)

THAT was the shortest trip on a band wagon I've ever had! I got up to drop a deuce and by the time I come back, Dan's the MAN! Me likee!  Makes me wonder if Dan and Gus really DID have a deal in place to swap houses...  _________________ Dr. Seuss wrote: From there to here, from here to there, EARL THOMAS is everywhere... #FREEBROWNER

Love the pick-up. Makes the most sense. We basically do not skip a beat on defense except get some expertise along the defensive line - somewhere where we need it most.
That is a good thing for the #1 defense in the league.

Last year I did a list of college coaches who could be future NFL HCs. Dan Quinn was the only ass't to make the list.

Regardless, I have high hopes for Quinn's abilities and feel it's a quality hire based solely on the merits of Quinn himself. What candidate are u worried about? Norton and Wash need to stay where they are because why mess with that success. And Kris Richard has never called plays. Other than administrative tasks, calling plays is the biggest task for a DC. In a few years lets worry about upsetting the coaching pipeline. Until then, every assistant is thrilled to be padding their résumé with the Seahawks.

I love this hire because we can almost keep the same structure in place with are assistants. And its almost like bradley is not gone. Plus we get to see jaye howard dominate this year. Big Red developed plantar fasciitis (rumored) and wasn't the same all year. It is a painful and chronic condition and a new DC won't fix it. His drafted replacement will though, and if Red doesn't bounce back, he will be a cap casualty next year. Edit: Oh and Jaye Howard wasn't there when Quinn was DC at University of Florida. Quinn DID, however, endorse Howard to the FO. Edited again: I was mistaken, Quinn was Florida DC for Howard's last year there. it wasn't just this year it was last as well. But i can see this as a very good at worst equal move.

That is a good thing for the #1 defense in the league. If the draft goes well, I can seriously see Seattle vying for some defensive records next year. I don't think they'll get the scoring record (9.2 points is TOUGH), but I think they might approach the 10 mark (that'd be a significant 5ppg drop) which would be craaaazy awesome with our current offense.

Losing out on Quinn has to be Bradley's first disappointment on the job. That, and his first cursory look at the Jag's roster lol.

I signed off on this so it's okay. He will be a head coach in a few years and one of the youngins will get a shot then.

One other potential positive of hiring Dan Quinn - assuming Wash is hired by Bradley as DC (I am not a Wash fan), Quinn would likely bring Bryant Young from Florida as D-line coach

(And I'm pretty astonished that it happened so soon, actually.) Nobody in house was qualified to be promoted to DC. Rocky Seto? Kris Richard? Please... Probably the only one even qualified was Todd Wash, but with the state of the D-line last year I don't think he deserved it. Nope, Dan is the absolute best choice for DC and I could give a rip if the other guys are butthurt. Just pushes them to do better so they get the job if/when Dan gets his own HC opportunity. _________________ Dr. Seuss wrote: From there to here, from here to there, EARL THOMAS is everywhere... #FREEBROWNER

This is PERFECT! Quinn is a smart man and imho, a better DC than Gus. Dan is the one that suggested Red Bryant play DE and now that he has experience as a college DC, he is well prepared for the job as our DC! Like Canhawk, I wanted Quinn over everyone. Plus, we once again have a coach that is familiar with college talent. And most importantly, with D-line talent, our biggest need!

Excellent call Can. You've elevated yourself to Kip Earlywine level genius with this call.
It's amazing how plugged into this organization some 12's are. Seriously amazing.

Wouldn't now mind seeing Todd Wash going to Jax, and Quinn brings in his own guy to look over D Line.
