"Quinn took accountability as all good leaders do. But one NFL analyst believes that if the respected figure doesn't get his house in order, the clock is ticking on his reign. It's easy to knock people when they are down. Nobody expected the Commanders to struggle this much, even with some mitigating circumstances. Quinn isn't looking for excuses, but the signs that something was amiss during the summer have reared their head in the worst way imaginable."
"Lastly, while I believe Dan Quinn's job is safe for next season, so far it has been a disastrous display of poor decision-making for the second-time head coach, highlighted by Jayden Daniels' injury in the 4th quarter of a blowout defeat. Quinn has to get a handle on himself and his staff and needs to do both in short order before he enters the last year of his contract."
"The locker room remains entirely behind Quinn. He led a sensational culture shift across the franchise last season, propelling the Commanders from obscurity into the NFC Championship game. It was always going to be challenging to meet these objectives again, and the injury problems all but evaporated any playoff hopes. At the same time, this squad looks devoid of talent or inspiration. It seems precisely what it is - the NFL's oldest roster."
Dan Quinn has endured heavy criticism this season after leaving Jayden Daniels in a blowout that produced a dislocated elbow and possible season-ending injury. An NFL analyst warned that Quinn's pattern of poor decision-making must be corrected quickly or his job could be at risk. The locker room reportedly remains supportive after a culture shift that led to last season's NFC Championship run, but injuries and an aging, talent-depleted roster have eroded playoff hopes and exposed underlying issues that surfaced during the summer.
