Phlegm Alley Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 While it is not my 1st choice, I think he could be a solid HC. Like you said, with Schotty Jr on board, Schotty Sr would be involved, either directly or indirectly and considering Nix and Schotty Sr's relationship, I think it may be the next best thing to actually having Marty. He has had the history of developing quality young QBs and, with Sanchez this year, he has put the Jets in position to be successful. A lot of this is attributed to the quality offensive line they have built, which has directly impacted the running game in a positive way. A good offense predicated on running the ball is how I believe a successful Buffalo Bills team should be built, IMHO. I just hope they can catch lightning in a bottle and hit on one of these "up-and-coming" coordinators, because it is becoming pretty obvious that Cowher isn't coming here.

Beebe's Kid Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 How did the rushing attack rank? Well, that's just not a fair question...with a once in a lifetime talent like Thomas Jones. That is complete sarcasm. Give me a Schott and a bear....Hell, I'll take two Schotts, what do ya say Marty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsGuyInMalta Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 How did the rushing attack rank? Damn, beat me to it! I'll be honest, I'm not as high on Brian Schottenheimer as I am on say Russ Grimm or Ron Rivera. Someone posted a really convincing argument for him a few days ago though and it did slowly start changing my mind on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUFFALOTONE Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 How did the rushing attack rank? Lets trade OL's and then i will side with you. Sadly the guy who gets credit for that works in Cleveland as their HC. Lets all get our facts strait, it starts with the draft. Pass on Schottenhoozer.

clancynut Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Some positives about this: 1. He has worked with Buddy Nix in the past, so there is a good relationship between them. 2. He has worked with great QBs Brees and Rivers. 3. Sanchez showed a lot of improvement this year. 4. His Dad should be involved with the team in some capacity. Negatives 1. He is not Bill Cowher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Tuesday Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I just wonder how much of his success is attributable to Callahan. Maybe he would bring Callahan along as his OC, but I doubt it (I'd guess Callahan would get promoted and prefer to stay as OC of the Jets).

Lets all get our facts strait, it starts with the draft. Pass on Schottenhoozer. You are right about the O-line that BS inherited. Mangini left it there for him. And now he has a first round draft pick at QB who is getting better every game. All this makes him look good. Would he be any good here as HC? who knows? His offense does look intricate and he runs it nicely, so I wouldn't mind seeing if he was interested. Hopefully his dad will talk him into it, because I think he'd be hesitant about leaving a team on the rise to come here. (Not that I am a Jet fan at all.)

quikchomp Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 What did he inherit? He's been the o-coordinator since 2006. Rushing offense ranks since 2006, in order, per ESPN: 2006 - 20th 2007 - 19th 2008 - 9th 2009 - 1st ("pretty good") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS could be a great HC someday but I want to see how he handles Sanchez first before I give him a HC gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
