Four of the best in the business have reached the NFL championship game Only one of them Denver s defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio, has been a head coach. Indeed, two of them Dan Quinn, who runs Seattle’s top ranked defense, and Adam Gaze, in charge of Denver’s record-setting offense are finishing their first season as a coordinator. The Sea Hawks Darrell Bevell was hired by Pete Carroll in 20ll to oversee the offences. Not one has gotten an opportunity to move up this year. Gaze was given permission by Broncos boss John Elway to speak with Minnesota and Cleveland, but decide to postpone any interviews until after the Super Bowl. The Vikings hired Mike Zimmer away from Cincinnati, and Cleveland grabbed Buffalo’s Mike Petting after Gaze told the Browns last week not to bother waiting on him.
Quinn was interviewed by the Vikings and Browns, during the playoffs. Bevel talked to Minnesota as well as with Washington, which hired Jay Gurdon. Del Rio who replaced John Fox and went 3-1 this season while Fox was recovering from heart surgery. Someone was interviewed by Denver maybe Southern Cal just before Fox was stricken. But the Trojans hired Steve Sardinian away from the University of Washington and so on. There certainly are opportunities each and every year, and at some point they will match with somebody’s looking for what s offered. …

Of course, Quinn, Bevel, Gaze and Del Rio can add extra boost to their resumes with a win Sunday, and none of them would trade being in the frozen Big Apple right now. Carroll lost coordinator Gaze Bradley last winter when Jacksonville hired him as coach. Quinn was promoted, and together they elevated Seattle’s defense to the top of the league. That drew heavy interest in Quinn, and Carroll encouraged him to go after it. Pete said, “It will be the worst thing for me, but I am going to help you, Quinn recalled with a laugh. “It wasn’t the right time for us, but going through the whole process, I really enjoyed it. I made some great connections with Cleveland and Minnesota. But he’s still with the Seahawks, trying to find a way to slow Manning and the record-setting offense that Gase coordinates. Like the 33 year old Quinn, Gase stepped in, leaving the Florida Gators, And like Quinn, the 35 year old Gaze is plenty happy where he is. Having Manning boosting your stock can’t ever be a bad thing. So he chose to stay put before letting talks go too far with Minnesota and Cleveland.
Most coaches would say Hey that’s my final goal, but I can’t keep looking in the rear view mirror and say, Hey, I turned this down and I’ve never gotten another opportunity. I just felt like it was the right thing for me at the time.
Del Rio hasn’t exactly been seeking out another head coaching gig, but he won’t shy away if an offer comes. There certainly are opportunities each and every year, and at some point they will match up with what somebody’s looking for. You’re nobody until someone contacts you.
