DESCRIPTION
Dan Quinn to the Cowboys: What change at defensive coordinator means for Dallas' scheme, staff, draft, and more There's a new deputy sheriff in North Texas. Only days after the 2020 season concluded in embarrassing fashion for the Dallas Cowboys, they pulled the trigger on a decision they'd been actively committed to doing for weeks -- firing defensive coordinator Mike Nolan and sending defensive line coach Jim Tomsula packing with him. The latter found himself joining Nolan on the hot seat for a variety of reasons, a primary one being the unwillingness to unleash defensive end Randy Gregory as starter, sources tell CBS Sports. And with the call to jettison Nolan after only one year, it'll be Dan Quinn serving as his replacement, the former Atlanta Falcons head coach agreeing to terms on a multi-year deal after an impressive in-person interview on Monday, those same sources confirmed. It was Quinn's second Q&A with the Cowboys, his first having been virtual on NFL Super Wild-Card Weekend, along with Justin Simmons (secondary coach and defensive passing game coordinator of the Carolina Panthers) and Joe Whitt, Jr. (secondary coach of the Falcons). Quinn ended up overtaking the lead in-house candidate in George Edwards, the former Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator who currently serves as senior defensive assistant for the Cowboys, with both Quinn and Edwards having been formally interviewed for the vacancy before Dallas made it's final decision to toss the keys to the former. And with that, the Cowboys get to have their defensive cake and eat it too, by way of retaining Edwards in his current role but in also landing their top external candidate to replace Nolan in a situation that combines the football IQ of both of their top candidates. There are justifiable questions to the hiring of Quinn, given the lack of success the Falcons defense had during his time there, but a counterpoint is that he wasn't calling the plays, so it's unknown how much of that blame lies at his feet, outside of the obvious decision to see it floundering and ... well ... not take over play-calling duties. So, what's next in Dallas, with Quinn now secured? Well, lots, so let's dive right into the science of what's on tap defensively for Dallas this offseason.
