I'm intrigued. He was a hot commodity a few years ago. It would be interested to see who he would bring in as his coordinators.

I like the idea of having a HC who is not also a coordinator/playcaller on one side of the ball. I know that Russ is well respected around the league. I would be OK with him as long as he has strong coordinators.

Don't know if Grimm is the answer, but I like the fact that he is a hard nosed kind of guy. This team needs to get mentally tougher and grow a set and Grimm might be the right guy to instill this kind of attitude. I am tired of the Bills getting pushed around and laughed at.

I read somewhere(I don't remember where) that Grimm was Rooneys first choice to replace Cower but the NFL intervened and said the Sterlers should go with the minority since he was qualified and the Rooney rule was in place because of them. Take that for what it's worth, I'm sure with some digging someone can fin something about it. If there is even the slightest bit of truth to that then this may be Whaleys suggestion.

You mean this is "The Reverse Rooney Rule?"

Here's a fun "Russ Grimm" fact for y'all:

 

When Russ Grimm was drafted by the Redskins he thought the Redskins played in the state of Washington, not Washington DC.

 

 

Uhhh, I'd pass. Funny how it's leaked the Bears want Mike McCoy and it's leaked the Bills want Russ Grimm...LOL

We have a solid o line now...if he's brought in our off line would be coached up to the best in the league. You want a little leverage for levitre to stay, protection for a potential rookie qb and downfield maulers for Spiller and freddy...then you hire this guy.

Didn't we want to interview him 3 years ago? I thought he told us to go fly a kite. What's changed, Russ?

 

Who knows...maybe he liked his situation in Arizona. :doh:

 

I hope they call Ken Whisenhunt. As soon as I heard that he got the axe, I thought this was the guy to go after.

Have you watched Arizona's offensive line lately?
