Over40club Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 More positives then negatives for sure with this hire if it came to fruition .

Why would you think he can coach at the highest level there is, first coaching stop? Orchard Park High, yes, hire him. Bills, let's get a professional please.

ddaryl Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 the guy has never coached a game of college or pro football in his life wake up.. he is a good voice for us but he is not a coach, and he would be the 1st to tell you that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could probably make a better OC than AVP which probably isn't saying much. But HC is probably a little too much for him to take on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Bills Fan Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I made the mistake of posting a similar question asking if he would make a good OC and got torn a new one. Hopefully you will be spared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills, let's get a professional please. Jimbo's 1st coaching stop for all intents and purposes was being the Bills coach/player Offensive coordinator back in the hay day with the "K-GUN" with the exception on most occasions of short yardage and goaline . Make no mistake , 90% of all the offensive plays were called by Kelly ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Bills Fan Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Plus, Kelly said at the press conference after the Nix promotion that if or when he becomes involved with the Bills it would not be for coaching of any kind. I believe his words where he as too much time invested in Hunters Hope and if he were to coach it would be an all in decision and he isnt ready for that now.

MRM33064 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 It's essentially moot, he's not interested ... I suspect that has to do with his stated reasons (his active charity work, etc.), and also unstated ones, such as his observation of the Marino experiment a few years ago down here in South Florida. Marino - another guy with all sorts of things going on, chartiable and otherwise - accepted an important job with the Dolphins front office and then quit after about a month. Jim is a great ambassador for the team, his charties, and the region. That's what he does best now. (We can politely avoid even reaching the issue of qualifications.)

Well then he has crucial experience, having already been thoroughly outcoached by Belicheat (Super Bowl vs. Giants: more Thurman, less Kelly). kj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make no mistake , 90% of all the offensive plays were called by Kelly ! oh, please. stop living in the past Bills fans. this is 2010, not 1990. it would be wonderful if a local group with kelly buys the team, funds it well, gets great coaches and players to come happily play and live at the north pole and thereby keeps a winning team in crumbling RWS (highly unlikely IMO), but coach?. get out of the time machine people. this is today.

Is this the over 40 real incarnation of DELLAPELLE JOHN? do you have anything of any intelligence to add or shall i just report you're childish behavior now because make no mistake i have raised 6 children and i do not feel the need to raise another one in you over the internet...i will NOT tolerate it ! Now with that being said , in the words of a mod i am near and dear with, attack the post not the poster , i hope i made myself clear ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
47Yards Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Jimbo is a great booster and might be a crucial part of assembling a group of investors (HOF'ers and million/billionaires) to keep the team here. That's the only capacity I'd like to see him in; no coaching, and no running for political office either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
