Refried Beans 1,438 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 If all of the coaches hired in the 20 years since Rich McKay has been here had to coach against each other who would win? In single game elimination? I say Smitty beats Mora, Mora beats Quinn, and Quinn beats Petrino. Boise Falcon Fan, egoprime II and TheShadow 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FalconinPA 12,696 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I don't know who would win, but that is a garbage list. I would give Quinn a slight lead, but he would just blow it anyway. falconfreak1, Dr Long Shot, 1989Fan and 14 others 6 1 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tmodel66 382 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Quitrino was the best schematically (at least in college), but was the worst human being. It is a bad list.

TheShadow 106 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Hands down Smitty. He took us out a **** hole in 2008 and keep on winning. he wasnt great but he was very good at fundamental NFL football. His downfall was a bad GM, TD. Not much help and probably turn on him when things went bad. Remember the team loved him too, but still got fired. Interesting!

The whole "Hard Knocks" clip of him talking to the team about "Everybody says the Falcons are soft" was a bad look as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Speezy 121 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 If I had to choose -- Smitty. Thanks to Blank -- really feels like we've been stuck on Aisle 0 at Home Depot waiting on somebody's grandpa to be our live YouTube tutorial and save the day since the coaching carousel started swirling.

MAD597 7,497 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Smith is the best overall HC we ever had. 2 injury plagued seasons ended his reign here and at time he was too conservative but his team's were always disciplined and near the best in the league in penalties and were good about not doing stupid things to hurt us.

He wouldn't allow it to get to 'run 3 times and kick a field goal' and then not do it, Petrino would leave a note on the bench and sneak out sometime towards the beginning of the 4th quarter, Quinn couldn't put enough defense on the field to stop the other side, even if it was like a scrimmage game and he had the first string QB playing the ones lower down the list, and Mora would just stand on the sidelines and tell his best player 'if the play don't look like it's going to work, just run with it' Smitty for the win Vandy, PokerSteve and Refried Beans 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Four if you include his assistant coaching days in DAL. His biggest issue here was not having a sufficient back up for Vick or Jam. That cost him two or three seasons.

RYNE 6,011 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I’d take Smith back over the others. At least when Smith was the coach I cared whether we won or lost.
