As Jeff Schultz notes in his latest piece at The Athletic, Dan Quinn has a habit of being an upbeat person. At his best he’s a rock in stormy seas for a team that never seems to get too down on itself, and at his worst he can seem like he’s blowing sunshine up your butt when it’s not warranted. Either way, though, that positivity is consistent.
That’s why it’s noteworthy that when pressed by Schultz, DQ was non-committal in the extreme about Deion Jones’ return and the team making the playoffs. In particular, the playoff thing was amusing, with this exchange recorded in Schultz’s column.
