00:00I don't know that Quinn wanted to make more changes or that Durante Jones wanted to bring more people with
00:06him.
00:06But if I'm Durante Jones and I'm leaving Minnesota and know, maybe it's all Flores.
00:12Maybe Flores deserves every inch of every credit there is.
00:15But my guess is there's probably some pretty good defensive assistants on that staff.
00:19True.
00:19And if I'm Durante and I know these guys in Minnesota and I'm going to Washington to run my own
00:24shop,
00:24I'm guessing he sure would have liked to bring some of those guys.
00:28I would agree.
00:29And I don't know what I don't know here, but I know eventually maybe you're talking about money.
00:35Like, all right, well, we've got to fire these couple guys and we've still got to pay out their deal.
00:39We've got to bring in these new guys and they're going to want three-year deals to leave Minnesota.
00:44And I just wonder, let me be clear, I wonder if those conversations were had.
00:50And two, I wonder what they went like.
00:52Because it's remarkable to have two new coordinators, and including one of the coordinators, you only have four new coaches
00:59in that building.
01:00Yeah.
01:01And then we talk about the pass protection plan with Miles Garrett and Aaron Donald coming to town last week.
01:07It wasn't very good.
01:08That was an internal coaching promotion.
01:11Yeah.
01:11Because Bobby left or was fired, whatever happened there, they promoted Stapleton.
01:17I mean, we talk about the defensive backs early on.
01:20They brought somebody in to help with that in season.
01:23Mm-hmm.
01:24That's generally not the most glowing endorsement of the guys that are currently there doing it.
01:28Yeah.
01:29And that stuff is down the list.
01:34Like, fans might not notice all those sorts of things, but, like, the people running position group meetings matter.
