Commanders head coach Dan Quinn issues a perfect message to his team, as they dance their way to the NFC Championship.
Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn sent a direct message ahead of Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
For Washington, coach speak isn’t cliché. The team listens to its elite communicator at the top and has responded with passionate play.
No one outside the locker room was surprised when the Commanders lost to the Buccaneers 37-20 in the season opener.
Eight years later, Quinn is back on the cusp of a Super Bowl berth, this time as the first-year head coach of the Commanders. With a new head coach in Quinn and a rookie quarterback in Jayden Daniels, Washington has reached the NFC championship game for the first time since 1992.
Following their impressive victory over the Detroit Lions, Washington Commanders' head coach Dan Quinn announced that Jayden Daniels will be without a key teammate for the remainder of the NFL playoffs.
The former FOX Sports personality believes Washington lost the NFC Championship before the Philadelphia Eagles ever touched the ball.
But head coach Dan Quinn doesn't want that loss to be for nothing. There are lessons to be learned and things that players, coaches, and everyone in between would have wanted to do better, and that is why the 55-23 loss will leave a scar on the team ... just as Quinn wants it to.
