The Beautiful East Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Because Schefter has been right about everything so far. Well, he is being rather affirmative about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sven233 Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 Nothing like breaking news in the middle of the night! I don't know much about how he coaches, but I kind of like the unknown at this point. LET'S GO BILLS!!!! So, let's review what has happened at 5:00am on 1-6-2013......... NHL Lockout is over......... The Bills have a new head coach....... Who needs sleep!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 With Marrone we have no OC or DC. Is this for serious? He wasn't a play calling OC for the Saints. I never even thought this was a possibility. I'm shocked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sven233 Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 Because Schefter has been right about everything so far. Yeah......there has been guessing, but this is different........

truth on hold Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 (edited) Oh no this may mean we draft nassib in rd 1 too. Not happy about any of this. Edited January 6, 2013 by Joe_the_6_pack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Marrone was the consolation prize for Cleveland if they couldn't get Chip Kelly. Why would we want Cleveland's backup plan? I just don't get this at all. Who is going to be OC and DC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donald Duck Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Nothing like breaking news in the middle of the night!

The Bills have a new head coach....... Who needs sleep!!!!! Hockey! New HC! who needs sleep! Oh no this may mean we draft nassib in rd 1 too. Not happy about any of this. Nassib is one of the best QB's in the draft! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nucci Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Well, he is being rather affirmative about it. He also said it was 95% sure that Reid was signing with the Cards and that Kelly is about to sign with the Browns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 He wouldn't report it if it wasn't true. I'm going to barf. We need a good OC and DC now. We are in trouble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omar Little Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Great move. This is the first time the Bills have ever excited me with a head coaching hire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beautiful East Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 This is a guy who has just rebuilt a college program in just about no time. I like that. I like Ryan nassib, too, by the way. I REALLY like that the Bills left the beaten track of NFL-retreads looking for a new HC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Convincing teenagers to come to Syracuse is one thing. Running an NFL team is another. Of which he has no experience. And you guys are excited? I'm shocked. This guy isn't an offensive OR defensive genius. Unless they have a top notch OC and DC to announce as coming too then we are screwed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Ryan nassib, too, by the way. I REALLY like that the Bills left the beaten track of NFL-retreads looking for a new HC. BINGO!!! We may not know a ton about the guy.....his coaching style, philosophy, etc., but that is what makes this kind of exciting at the same time. At this point, I think we need the unknown more than the known...... Were there good coaches out there (who were just fired), sure....but I want something different.....something I haven't seen before. That is why I wanted Kelly. But this hire is along the same lines....we just don't know as much about him, yet. The only thing we really know is that he took a college team that hasn't been relevant sinc McNabb was drafted and turned it around very quickly...... Sounds like another situation I know of........ Now, we just have to see if lightning can strike in the pros as it did in college! Definitely is interesting if nothing else!!! I think the most important part in all of this will be who he brings in for a staff......Can't wait to find out...... GO BILLS!!!
