On Friday morning John Fricke and Hugh Douglas found an article that ranks NFL Head Coaches, and they find Dan Quinn ranked 9th. Fricke asks Hugh if he agrees and thinks that Dan Quinn is a top ten coach.
"I do. I look at these rankings and I'm surprised where they have them. It's easy to rank young coaches and rank them at the bottom, but it gets dicey towards the top."
Hugh also questions if some of the top 5 should even be ahead of Quinn.
"We know Coach Belichick is the cream of the top, but some guys, like McVay, are ranked on one-hit wonders. You look at some of the other coaches, who have a body of work, I think they should be in front of him"
John Fricke also agrees with the ranking, but feels Quinn has a real chance to prove it this year.
"I think he is a top ten coach. We'll find out this year just how good he really is," Frick said. "If he really is one of the top ten coaches in the NFL, this team wins at least 10 games this year"
Not all of the listeners are as nice as John and Hugh on this ranking:
Middle of the pack. Great cheerleader and culture guy, not a great X’s and O’s or clock mgmt/challenge flag guy
— Troy Phillips (@tjphillips82) May 3, 2019Middle of the pack until he proves otherwise imo I like him but it’s put up or shut up time #RiseUp

— Charles W Perkins Jr (@cwperkjr48) May 3, 2019Middle of the Pack. Definitely not top 10. He's good at picking and developing talent but X's and O's could be better. His game management skills need to develop more. He will be top 10 if he keeps developing as a coach. He's still fairly new as a HC.
— Saint Crowley Jr (@2ndSaint) May 3, 2019Top 10; could've been Top 5 if he had known when to wrest control of the offense from Shanahan in the SB, and just run the ball twice and kick the field goal after Julio's magnificent catch.
