Joe Lombardi could be another option. Current Saints QB coach. He got a bad rap in Detroit but when looking at it in hindsight he wasn't to blame for their offensive issues. Took an offense that was ranked #19 before he arrived to #13 within two years. This year Lions offense finished 15th.
We could do worse.
-
I would rather go with some possible up and coming OC, someone who is a QB coach or TE coach elsewhere that has been working his way up and shown promise, than a retread.
Matt LaFleur should get an interview.
-
Vic owes the Bills an apology for claiming the head coaching search was a sham.
I don't think he necessarily owes them an apology. But I do think it's further evidence that Carruci is completely full of crap.

How can you guys stand doing this crap for four straight months?

Olson's OC career using DVOA...
2006 - Improved Rams offense from 19 to 14
2007 - Rams offense falls from 14 to 31, Olson is fired
However, the next year Rams offense fell to 32 under his replacement Al Saunders. So Rams had bigger issues than Olson. Marc Bulger's nose dive, for instance.
2009 - Bucs offense falls from 20 to 26 under Olson in his first season as OC in TB.
2010 - Offense leaps from 26 to 8. Olson's work along with Josh Freeman's development results in Olson receiving national accolades for the first time as an NFL coach. 9th ranked passing, 11th ranked rushing (well-balanced).
2011 - Falls back to 26. Freeman free-falls, as does the offense. 24th passing, 15th rushing. Coaching staff fired.
2013 - Raiders offense falls from 23 to 28 under Olson. Of course, they replaced Carson Palmer with Terrelle Pryor, a rookie Matt McGloin, and Matt Flynn, so it's understandable. 31st in passing, 15th in rushing.
2014 - Under rookie Derek Carr the Raiders offense finishes 30th. After Olson left, Carr and the Raiders offense improved to 18 in 2015 under Bill Musgrave.
2015 - Jags offense improved under Olson, moving from 31 to 21.
2016 - Olson was the scapegoat for the offense's failure to improve, falling to 27
Personally, I think Olson has been handcuffed by poor quarterback play more than anything. Then again, good coordinators are able to get more out of rushing attacks when the QB play is poor. If Olson is hired, expect to see a fall from our back-to-back Top 10 offense.

Think I might be the only person on Bills twitter who likes Olson.

Look @ jags 15 pass game, brees @ Purdue, solid w Canes. Childress not exactly a superstar either. Not saying Olson fantastic, just unknown

RawTips @rawtips@RQUINN619 why do you? -
I think Favre, Brees and Manning might beg to differ.
Should have clarified with "...unless they have another one on the roster."
Last I checked Saints don't have a Rodgers, Rivers or Luck grooming behind Brees.
-
What do you guys think that it would take to get Rodgers? How about Tyrod, Listenbee and a 3rd? I'd think that the Packers may hold out for O'Leary but it's a good starting point!!
A 3rd may be too much but maybe a 4th in 2018. Or we could throw in Patrick Lewis to really entice them.
-
If this team starts looking for good Christian players I will instantly become a Lions fan.
But we have to do something to offset the butt-chugging and other 'Sodom-and-Gomorrah' type things the heathens are doing in our parking lots before games.
-
Olson QB coached Brees at my alma mater Purdue. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Leroi hint at a possible push to land Brees?
Teams don't get rid of elite quarterbacks.
-
He's probably Jets next OC.

Meant Stephanie Turner,Norvs daughter
To each their own but to me she's mediocre. Eyes are too far apart, resembling a fish.
-
If Chip is hired then this has to be a reality TV show.
Please make this happen, TLC.
-
Olsen the guy fired from Jax and replaced with Nate Hackett let that sink in for a minute. Not in love with Childress either but at least he was a former HC and will provide support to a 1st timer.
Yeah and look at how much the offense improved when Olsen was fired.
Oh wait, it actually got worse.
-
-
I'd rather pull someone from the college ranks than have Olsen in here.
Me too but unfortunately it doesn't appear that's the way they're going.
Not much original thought or outside-the-box thinking so far from our head coach.
-
Reports say that Chiefs will block Nagy from interviewing for OC.
In other words Nagy doesn't want to leave KC.
-
I don't see any way someone trades for Romo with the cap hit he has combined the injury risk.
-
it does happen but I read that often the team is acting as a cover for the coach if they aren't interested. Agents are at play with these things and they represent lots of GMs and coaches.
Exactly right. To prevent assistant coaches from landing promotions is not a healthy move for your franchise. Who would want to coach there?
Then move on from Tyrod and bring on Nick Files at a much cheaper cap figure an UFA and draft a QB to develop with Cardale.
If you thought a 7 win season was bad, just wait for Nick Foles. 2-14 sounds about right.
-
Still maintain Sophie Turner is hotter.
Not sure what Sansa Stark has to do with this thread.
-
You said the same thing about EJ and I called BS then just like I am now. It's a poor excuse for both of their flaws.
Except Taylor is so much better than EJ so the comparison stinks.

@chiefsinsider
Can't see #Chiefs letting Brad Childress leave for #Bills OC gig. He's third most valuable staff member next to Reid & Ballard!
You can keep Childress or Nagy take your pick.

It's this guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greg_Olson_(American_football)
The Jaguars offensive coordinator??? You've got to be freakin' kidding me.
Gut Feeling - AVP

I think AVP is ready.
He was put in a tough situation in 2009. Plus that was 8 years ago. He'll be 47 in May.
Solid NFL career as a backup, spent a few years here in Buffalo as a coach, probably worked his way up the ladder too fast. Spent two seasons as Bucs QB coach (while Greg Olson was OC, btw). And is about to complete his fifth season with the Packers where I'm sure he learned a lot from McCarthy, Ben McAdoo, Tom Clements, Edgar Bennett and even Rodgers.
Plus the guy has obviously groomed himself physically for years to look like a Buffalonian.
