    If this hasn't already been covered, I did some research on him. He was on the Bills staff in 2015, and has worked with Kromer:

     

    Metric (2025) Pittsburgh Buffalo
    PFF Final Ranking 8th 15th
    Sacks Allowed 17 41
    Pass-Blocking Efficiency 88.8 (2nd in NFL) 85.6
         

     

    Also:

    Fewest QB pressure, Lowest pressure rate allowed, 3rd in pass blocking win rate, 9th in run blocking win rate, 2nd fewest holding penalties, 2nd fewest false start penalties

    Interesting. That’s saying something with Rodgers, who tried to get rid of the ball quickly but can no longer really move around like he used to. Essentially a statue.

    If baseball players can be held out for using PEDs and gambling then football coaches can be held out for getting caught cheating multiple times.

    I thought someone might bring that up in response to me. It’s a fair point. To many, cheating is cheating and I respect that. I’m honestly not sure where I land in that regard.  I’m just not sure I agree they are the same transgression. The guy, love him or hate him (personally, I hate him), certainly has the bonafides of a first ballot HOFer. 

  4. Still pretty disappointed with the decision overall, but after my initial reaction of complete disgust, I do get why they may have landed here. Again, not my first choice, but I get some of the thinking behind it.
     

    Go bag Jimmy Leonard as the DC and get someone who can help Brady with more creative approach to the pass game (i.e., more easy button options for Josh) as OC, then I’ll be back in the boat with the coaching side of things. Beane has to have a sun glasses meme BBB type of off-season on the personnel side (especially at receiver) to win me back. 

     

    Full disclosure - what f’n choice do I have? I’m a captive audience. No way in hell I’d root for anyone else. Love this team like a family member. Not just laundry for me. I’m such a dope 😭

    Given that Kromer retired, I believe we need a new oline coach and basically a new run game coordinator.
     

    What about Greg Roman? He seems like a good fit. I believe he is more of a power-gap run guy, which would fit our current personnel. 
     

    Given that Brady will continue to call plays, it seems like we wouldn’t have to worry about Roman’s shortcomings as a passing coordinator or play caller.

     

    Good idea or no?

    Not a terrible idea if Kromer was truly the architect of the run game. But id prefer a new idea with someone who can help Brady improve the pass game.

    McGovern should be a re-sign. I don’t think you can sign Edwards. But you do have to be careful if you intend to extend Torrence, which I’m not sure they will be able to do. 

    I’m resigning Edwards and McGovern if I can and letting cybo walk, trade, or tag and trade. Or trade Dawkins and keep the middle together. I like him, but Cybo is the weakest link of the bunch right now.

    don’t believe Beane’s job is on the line regarding Brady’s success.

    Beane bought himself a lot of good favor with Terry for picking Josh. McD immediately went against Terry his first draft in not picking Mahomes (Terry was rumored to love Mahomes, but didn’t want to be seen as stepping on McDs toes). In his mind, Beane saved the org and cleaned up after McD. Don’t think the old man has forgotten about that.

    A "CEO" Leader: Fitzpatrick explains that Beane was specifically looking for a "CEO-style" head coach—someone with high emotional intelligence and a pulse on the building, rather than just a "schemer" who locks themselves in an office [02:12].

    Thought this was a swipe at some of the young cats fans preferred (Udinski, Scheelhaase). They say they don’t listen to this stuff, but they do.
