Per league rules, Jets next opportunity to interview Dan Quinn (after Saturday) will be after the Seahawks are eliminated from playoffs #nyj

didn't see this posted and wrote it in a different thread. What are your thoughts on Quinn?

Pretty funny how we are interviewing him without his buddy Idzik leading it.

Don't really like they are interviewing HC's before GM's. Unless of course the next GM, or the next GM's father are doing the interview

Nice. Would be a good option. Are they thinking of pairing him with a possible GM candidate from Seattle?

Hard to tell how a DC/Oc is going to perform as a HC. Seattle's D has played well for hm. Seattle is really structured the way Rex wanted to structure the Jets. Ground and pound, and a strong D. Difference is they have a QB

I think they are doing the interview this way because it's the only time they can talk to him for some time. They can't hire him while the Hawks are still playing.

Only name that's come up that I'd be happy with, but that's just me. Come home to Morristown.
Consistently had top 10 defenses in college, and led Seattle to arguably the best Dee ever, compared to the 85 Bears.
But we also know what Buddy Ryan did as a head coach. It's all a gamble.
Don't want Todd Bowles

Confirmed the Jets have requested permission to talk to Seahawks director of pro personnel Trent Kirchner, as @RapSheet reported. #nyj 2m

Woody really seemed to stress the importance of the GM/HC relationship.

I don't know the relationship between these guys but coming from the same team you would think they have some stuff in common.

How old is this guy 36-37?. This could really be an interesting thing developing here. Just read that the Jets have moved the Quinn interview up to Friday, so they can hopefully interview Kirchner on Saturday. Found some tweets about it. I'll post them in a bit.

Quinn interest seems serious (flying out to SEA), great candidate. Local guy, has coached here before, real solid resume out with Seahawks.

Better that they are taking initiative to fly to SEA, start the process with a legit candidate, and work from there. #Jets

2) Woody has reinforced this won't be quick. This could be the 1st interview with Quinn. It's not even in Florham Park.

Getting a lot of 'Jets shouldn't hire HC w/ out GM in place.' Understandable but 2 things.
1) Ron Wolf is in these interviews with Woody...

FWIW, my HC predictions:

Falcons: McDaniels
49ers: Gase
Jets: Quinn
Raiders: Bowles

Bears complete wildcard. Rex obviously a possibility.

.the experience. Trestman had an extra pass from one of his staff members, gave it to Kirchner. Career took off from there after college.

Another note: Kirchner works as Schneider's asst. - Schneider is relatively young for GM, Kirchner will need to look elsewhere for promotion

...a Seattle coach with him as his guy. Comfortable setting. It's an entirely different situation. GM jobs don't pop up everyday.
