Dan Quinn is a lot more popular with Washington fans than he ever had been before. At the time he was hired, there was a lot of public disappointment that:
a. he wasn’t Ben Johnson
b. he wasn’t Mike Macdonald
c. he was a defensive-minded coach
d. he was a “retread”; that is, a guy who had been previously fired from a head coaching job (Atlanta Falcons)
But DQ has risen in the estimation of Washington fans — Hogs Haven readers, at least.
Ninety-nine percent of those responding to this week’s Reacts survey felt the same or better about Dan Quinn than they did when his hiring became public knowledge at the beginning of February, with nearly 8 out of 10 Hogs Haven readers saying that they feel better now than they did then.
