No more retreads if Quinn doesn't work out. I don't care if they are defensive or offensive minded, just give someone that has never been a head coach a chance. See Joe Freaking Gibbs.

If we move on from Quinn, and I hope we don’t soon as that will mean bad things happen Sincerely, I’d want Tomlin. No losing seasons. Yes please.

Tomlin quite viable too, but playoff record sucks, losing the last 7 in a row, plus head to head Tomlin got his ass kicked. I like Tomlins fire and ability to get more from less which is an awesome sign. If he were coaching the Bills, would he have done better? Not sure, but in my opinion, they are both better coaches that who we have today, a player friendly coach who wins as much as the talent on the team and no more, unless its a fluke with a crazy offensive scheme with a phenom rookie QB with little tape.

Let's face it, Quinn is a defensive coach and our defense sucks, that should tell you a lot. How about ex LB's who have terrible LB's. It's a bad sign. I like Quinn, so do the players which is great for recruiting and retention, but not sure it leads to sustainable over producing the talent on the team. Shit, I could have coached this team to 5 wins last year, let's be real.
The only reason he shouldt already be fired is because of excuses and throwing his coordinators under the bus, even though he called the defensive plays later.
How many times did Gibbs win with backups? He won in spite of injuries. That's what excellent coaches do. So regarding Tomlin, he has a touch of that skill, I see it. He gets more with less, he just gets out coached in the playoffs. If he had an offensive wizard with special playoff plays, he wins championships.

I mean I don't mean to be a downer or anything but only Skins Homer's think we are winning 12 games. To me, this year is the true reality check. 2024 was awesome, going for it on every 4th down with nothing to lose. Ultimately we got our asses kicked by Philly when luck ran out. 2025 was a massive underacheivment, yes injuries but we won big the prior year with the same backup QB. No excuses, the coaching, the play and the preparation was poor. So Quinn gets a mulligan. 5 wins out of 17 is pure shit. In the context of winning 14 the prior year is catastrophicly bad. I dont think having 9 fewer wins than year one has ever been acheived by a NFL coach. It is mind bogglingly bad objectively.
Remember, we closed out 2-10, and the last one was against Philly resting their starters and screwing up our draft order. Thinking this team can magically win is what fandom is all about, but this is a question of what is "real"
If he get the team to play to their par skill level, they win 7-8.That is my realistic expectation.

Re: Your expectations for 26 season?

Ya know, you may think I am all-over the place but I just watched Jayden Daniel's highlight last year and Ertz and Deebo were clutch. The truth is we have no idea who takes their place.
It is clear the NFL knows how to minimize Daniel's running explosives, so those are history. I understand developing his traditional qb under center qb skills. This year is a completely unknown. We have no clutch Ertz, we have no clutch Deebo. All we have is one clutch McClauren and maybe Rachaad White. The NFL caught up to Jayden quick, just like RG3. RG3 never developed as a pocket passer, but Jayden can. This is the year we find out. Can Jayden just pass the damn ball or not? It sure would help if we had more WR/TE talent to find out. Right now, I am under impressed, although I am hopefully at TE and 3rd down RB White. WR beyond Terry sucks. If we want our qb to develop from RG3 to Steve Young we need a Taylor. We don't have one yet. Steve Young is the model for Jayden Daniel's. I am not sure a run first scheme is the right fit for that.

I think we need to think long and hard about how to develop Daniel's long term
