FalconsIn2012 35,693 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Todd Gurley on Quinn: “Yeah, stop talking about my coach, man,” Gurley said. “I’m sick of it. But obviously, I’ve got his back. When I was a free agent (this past offseason), he was one of the only guys personally to give me a call and reach out to me. When everybody thought I lost it he believed in me. I can’t do anything but rock with a guy like that. He’s been solid to me these last couple of months.” Last year, Falcons owner Arthur Blank was partially swayed by an impassioned Julio Jones, who spoke about the need to win games for Quinn. At 0-5, which puts Quinn at 14-23 since the start of 2018, it may not matter who sticks up for the embattled coach at this point. “He’s been a great guy,” Gurley said. “Nobody cares about that. Everybody wants to win from the outside. But we just aren’t getting it done.” Lowndesfalc 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sdogg 9,791 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I'm sure Quinn is a really good guy. But he's paid to be a HC and he sucks at it. NCFalconfan 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FalconsIn2012 35,693 Posted October 12, 2020 Author Share Posted October 12, 2020 Quinn, along with general manager Thomas Dimitroff, drafted linebacker Deion Jones in 2016. Under Quinn, Jones reached the Pro Bowl following the 2017 season. Quinn also named Jones a captain prior to the start of the 2020 season. Jones said his support hasn’t wavered on Quinn, despite how this year’s start has gone amid the backdrop of the past two seasons. “It’s easy. I got him all day, every day,” Jones said. “He comes and fights for us every day, so we come to fight for him every day.” jazzyburrell 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FalconsIn2012 35,693 Posted October 12, 2020 Author Share Posted October 12, 2020 AJ & Mack on Quinn “Each of the players who defended Quinn said that much of the blame falls on them due to their lack of execution. Rookie cornerback A.J. Terrell said that the players should absorb the majority of the blame for not being able to produce what Quinn and his staff have asked them to do. “You’ve got to go into the game trusting the coaches, trusting the scheme,” Terrell said. “It’s just execution, going out there and making the plays. We’re not pointing any fingers at anybody. The coaches put together the game-plan and the players got to play.” Said center Alex Mack: “I think everyone has coach Quinn’s back. He takes care of us. Each week we show up with the right mindset and ready to play hard. We just need to play better. I think the effort is there. Everyone is working hard. We just need to perform in those small little moments, just a little bit better.” Although Quinn has many players coming to his defense, the NFL is a results oriented business.

NCFalconfan 9,646 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I'm ready for our players to start saying "coach prepares us meticulously each week" and "coach has a great game plan each week". Quinn sounds like a great guy to have a beer with. Coaching a pro football team, not so much. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
