How did a laughingstock of a franchise become a contender overnight? Jayden Daniels is the catalyst, of course. But the head coach was also a grand-slam hire. His unorthodox approach is paying off.
Sounds to me like this organization is treating players like the adults that they are. Allowing all stakeholders to have input into decisions that affect them is the only way to ensure they are in alignment with each other’s best interests. Call it the absence of ego…something not too common amongst many higher ups in any organization.
What’s great is that everybody has a story, and the depths of that story drives what we do, and how we do it — whether you call it your “why” or your “purpose” or whatnot. Two weeks of assembled practice with no football talk would make many coaches twitch. Especially with the talk about “everyone is soft, players don’t hit enough”. Quinn built his approach on some critical assumptions — and got this year’s roster to push forward. What a culture shift! Fingers crossed, for the sake of the franchise, that he can keep the good growing and send the bad and lumpy ones to Dallas.
