CBD Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 He's the DC for Atlanta already. A coordinator from the outside wouldn't have time to install his schemes etc. If Wanny were fired the new DC would have to come from within. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Watching the coaches film and hearing from players, our problems are more effort than anything. That sickens me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramblin' Rob Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Whats with all the Nolan love. Seriously, he could be no worse than any of our coaches since Phillips, but he also is the exact kind of retread as Gaily and Jauron. Dude made Mike Singletary look like a good coach look like Bill Walsh in San Francisco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanny's problem is he's too vanilla and can't/won't make adjustments. We need an agressive play caller that can make adjustments and fire up the front 7!

thewildrabbit Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Nolan just jumped from the Dolphins to the Falcons so I highly doubt he would take a step down to come to Buffalo Forget Nolan, Forget Wade Phillips after what RW did to him, even tho the thought of him as HC would help me forget the last lost decade. Forget Dom Capers as he is DC of the Packers, and like Nolan I don't see him taking a step down. Forget Dick LeBeau of the Steelers 70+ years old. Perhaps someone from Seattle (Gus Bradley) or Chicago.(Rod Marineli) The Bills need a winning coach with some serious ability, Vic Fangio current DC of the 49ers the #1 defense in the NFL last season and this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddog69 Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 He's a guy that I would not mind being considered to replace Chan as HC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincec Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 He's a guy that I would not mind being considered to replace Chan as HC This is also the only way he'd consider taking the position. However, judging from how things went in SF I'm not sure that he's head coaching material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stealth Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 This is also the only way he'd consider taking the position.

A coordinator from the outside wouldn't have time to install his schemes etc. If Wanny were fired the new DC would have to come from within. I call B.S. here. Had a long debate with a friend and fellow Bills fan of @25 years. First, its the bye week. Second, he wouldnt have to install a brand new scheme. Keep the scheme we have, study it, improve it, and install a couple new looks per week. Watch film, learn your players, and actually try to put them in position to do what they do best. And, its an audition possibly for HC. And, in the off-season, he'd be weeks ahead for installing his schemes for next season, and in evaluating what he has on the team. And, he can rely on the current assistants for continuity, verbage, etc. If Wade Phillips got fired tonight, you wouldn't hire him tomorrow morning because its the middle of the season??? (spare me the 3-4 defense excuse; you get my point). Make a move. Think outside the box. Give me hope.

Further, we couldn't even call one of these guys to ask if they'd want to interview. There's outside the box, and there's simply pointless speculation. Which is this really?

maddenboy Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) doesnt have to be someone currently employed. College? Network TV? Or CFL? Also, we can call someone if its an upgrade, like a position coach on another team, right? Teams cant, or by gentleman's agreement wont, block a promotion, right? Work with me here. We all want the same thing. Edited October 25, 2012 by maddenboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I'm an idiot didn't realize hes in atlanta but the point is our base 43 stays to base.

And we change nothing couple that with no heart and no effort and you get the Bills D...worst in the league Glad you realized your error, you should use the full editor to change your title as well. That Said I would love him here too What we need is maybe some one from their staff to become our DC this offseason, bc Wanny is in the stone age as far defense goes. Nolan just jumped from the Dolphins to the Falcons so I highly doubt he would take a step down to come to Buffalo Forget Nolan, Forget Wade Phillips after what RW did to him, even tho the thought of him as HC would help me forget the last lost decade.

It would be nice. Just picture, you decide one day that you don't your boss at work so you start half-assing it. As a result, your boss is fired and someone that you like better is hired.
