Frazier a “Serious Candidate” for Texans HC gig.
Doc Brown replied to whatdrought's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He's of Lebanese descent and is considered an Arab American. He's the first Muslim head coach and speaks both Arabic and English. -
Frazier a “Serious Candidate” for Texans HC gig.
Doc Brown replied to whatdrought's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yes. Two third round picks will be awarded to us if Frazier is hired as head coach. One in 2021 and another in 2022. These picks will be after the usual compensatory picks. -
I really haven't read through this thread but I think it's safe to say that no future losing one term president will give a speech to encourage supporters to march to the Capitol building the day the electoral votes are about to be certified. He either failed to foresee that there could be violence which makes him an idiot or he hoped there would be which makes him complicit. Seeing the way Trump operates over the last four years the former is much more likely.

Falcons hire Arthur Smith as HC
Doc Brown replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Right, but the poster I was arguing with implied you couldn't be a successful head coach if you were calling plays. I just felt that was inaccurate as you just have to find a way to compensate as your game management skills will take a hit if you're busy calling plays. -
Falcons hire Arthur Smith as HC
Doc Brown replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Right, but he had to make all those calls for them to even get in that position and if Rivers makes a good throw it's a TD. They're up 17-7 against a team you need to score TD's against and not FG's (as evidenced by the Bills driving 96 yards down the field right after that). Bigger picture though, in totality I just don't see the evidence of offensive head coaches failing because they refuse to give up play calling duties. -

Reich called a great game though and we pry win comfortably if he wasn't scheming up plays to make our defense look lost. Even on that 4th and goal the play was there but Rivers just overthrew him. Do the Colts even make the playoffs without him calling plays? It's tricky for these guys because they're ability to game plan and play call is what got them these head coaching jobs in the first place. To simply had the play calling duties over to somebody that hasn't had as much success as you is a tough thing to do. You have to weigh the cost benefit and if you do call your own plays you have to put more responsibility on the coaching staff around you to help you more with in game management. -
Poll on how you feel leading up to the game
Doc Brown replied to PrimeTime101's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I have no clue what to expect from this game. I'm just going to go 37-13 Bills based off Allen's and Lamar's Wonderlic scores. -
Emotional attachment to Bills - perspective welcomed

Off the top of my head I think the Titans beat us in the WC game with a 13-3 record. They had a chance to do it that year. -

Doc Brown replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think you can do both. Bill Walsh and Mike Holmgrem come to mind. If you're that much better at it than anybody else then why would you hand over the play calling duties? Payton, Arians, McVay, LaFleur, Stefanski, and Reid all call their own plays and they're six of the last eight teams standing. -

Just out of curiosity, has an NFL team ever gone 17-3 before? -
Falcons hire Arthur Smith as HC
Doc Brown replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Why would Reid? He just won a Super Bowl calling the plays. This isn't a charity profession. If Bieniemy doesn't get a HC job I'm sure there's plenty of teams out there that would hire him as offensive coordinator where he can call his own plays. He can also go the Bill O'Brien route and be a college head coach. -

Doc Brown replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Mostly because Nagy and Pederman got head coaching jobs doing the same job Bieniemy is doing right now under Reid. Their tenures were mixed so it could explain the hesitation in hiring Bieniemy. I'm also not sure how well he interviews. Maybe he does have to pull a Pettine and come to Buffalo for a year. -

He's going to have to deliver right away with Ryan turning 36 and stuck there with his contract for two more seasons. One more team off the board. -
Jimmy Garoppolo headed back to the Patriots?
Doc Brown replied to BITE ME's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Makes sense. The Pats will be back in contention next year with all that cap space with Belichick still at the helm. -
The Next Pandemic: SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19

Which vaccine did you get? Moderna or Pfizer? That's great that you had few side effects. -

Not sure about that. Stalin's agricultural policies weren't the greatest. -
That's a horrible timeout by McDermott.
-
There might be a little recency bias with him given his Titans game fumble with us driving. Seven fumbles on 677 touches in his NFL career isn't terrible. It was a major problem for him coming out of college though.

Weird thing about Bills vs Ravens history
Doc Brown replied to Buffalo03's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The only play that sticks out in my head between these teams is Flutie to Linton in the final two minutes in a defensive struggle. That's about it. I've never liked the Ravens. Ray Lewis, Deion Sanders, Ray Rice, Terrence Cody, Jamal Lewis, Bam Morris, ugly colors, and an obsession with sea food.
