NY Nole Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I don't see Cowher coming back this soon -- but if I were Ralph -- I would offer him the farm to get him in here. He would turn this team full of pansies into a hard-nosed, running football (which is what we need in Buffalo). I like Shanahan, but I always thought his Denver teams were more finesse and less brute force. Still -- I think he could help the offensive attack. Gruden and Holmgren could be a package deal and that is definitely appealing also. Bottom line -- I like this move but agree that we need an established HEAD COACH. I also think this could help us attract a bigger name head coach as those other teams (who will be looking for a head coach after this season) will not be able to talk until the season is over. As for DJ -- he's a good man -- but over-matched as a head coach. It wouldn't surprise me if he emerged as a good D coordinator down the road ala the "good interview" Gregg Williams.

thewildrabbit Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Given the fact that Ralph Wilson likes to hire people near his own age, I wouldn't be surprised to see him hire Dick Vermeil. At least the guy is a winner and knows the difference between a good offensive coordinator and a bad one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the idea of an old Offensive Lineman as the HC.. when the chips are down, they are going to run the ball. They want to punch the guy across from them in the face, and keep doing it until you make him stop. THAT'S the kind of team I want in Buffalo! Tough, Accountable, Physical and Well Disciplined.

His brother is also coaching in the NFL which will help no doubt. Also has his fathers brain to pick. Has done a great job developing QBs too... If its not Jim Harbaugh, the only other college coach I would like is Les Miles - LSU, he is the anti-juaron - think Rex Ryan but better. He works in a pro system too. Stoops and Leach no thanks. The HOF coaches you named are acceptable too, but I would like to go with Harbaugh, and bring in some former NFL HCs to be OC/DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cale Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 The best coach in the world won't mean S*&T if they don't get a good personnel guy and improve their scouting. Maybe Buddy Nix will now be more integral in the organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1billsfan Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I don't see Ralph paying up the money for a Cowher or Dungy big name type especially since he'll be on the hook for the remainder of Jauron's contract. Nor do I see any big name type taking the Buffalo job with the current dire situation at QB. The only big name guy I see that would possibly come here at a bargain price is Marty Schottenhiemer. So working within a realist set of circumstances, I see the Bills finding a real GM (Casserly? Wolf?) and ending up with a rookie head coach like one of these guys... Leslie Frazier - Vikings (Dungy student) Russ Grimm - Cardinals (Cowher student) Mike Zimmer - Bengals (Parcells student) What Ralph should do is get Ernie Accorsi in here as a consultant for this overhaul process.

StamerforPrez Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I think we are going to have to settle for an OC/DC. Why would any proven coach want to come to Buffalo and work for a 90 year old owner that's had a history of not giving his coaches what they need.

Fewell733 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I don't trust college coaches generally. Especially ones that owe their success to strategies that have historically only worked in the college game. I'd like to see a coach that has actually enjoyed a winning career record as a head coach in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
