FluffHead Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) @AdamSchefter Adam Schefter Jets and Bills both are talking to Ole Miss OC and former Dolphins QBs coach David Lee about joining their coaching staff. I would assume Buffalo wants him to be George Cortez's replacement as QB coach. Edited January 12, 2012 by FluffHead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FluffHead Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 He couldn't come in as OC unless we fired Modkins, when I wasn't looking. I know Modkins has the OC title, but he is just clipboard-holder-boy, Chan has been the one calling the shots. I'm not as critical of Chan's play calling as some (I would like to see some changes, particularly more plays from under center, and some play action pass game) but I think it may be a good idea to hand over play calling to someone else so he can be more of a true head coach rather than just an overseer of the offense.

Modkins is being groomed to be the OC in time. This is something Gailey and Nix seem to believe in; grooming future personnel. Inge is hired as an assistant DL coach. Modkins is being groomed to be an OC. Stan Kwan, assistant Special Teams coach, Bobby Johnson Assistant OLine coach. Whaley is Asst. GM now, but the GM in waiting. Not a bad way to operate.

jcbillsfan Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 You would think if he goes to the jets then they fire Cavanaugh m, he would be on the short list of qb coach. Worked for wannstadt ect The Bills are 10-22 under Chan's playcalling. He couldn't be worse yes and the defense has been amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cash Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I like that were paying this guy 500k+ and somehow act like he's an intern that makes coffee and copies. Good point! I do wonder, though, what Modkins' duties actually are? Chan was very clear in his introductory press conference that while someone else may hold the title of offensive coordinator, Chan himself would be performing the function of the offensive coordinator. So what is Modkins actually responsible for? Obviously something, or he never would've been hired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most, if not all, head coaches are heavy in one of the games' three aspects. It's their success in that area which inevitably provided their HC opportunity. This said, with no public insight to what Modkins is responsible for, its impossible to determine his impact separate from Gailey's direction. JMO, but I'm pretty sure Chan knows how to be a true HC.

metzelaars_lives Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I'm not adverse, but it seems like he kind of failed with Henne. Averse. Did Henne really have the talent? When Matt Moore comes in and proves he's way better than you, maybe you're simply not that good. or busta What about Heylookatmeionlyhaveone?
