G-Daddy Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Ha, and the Bills supposedly want AVP to be QB coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillnutinHouston Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Jason La Canfora @JasonLaCanfora 1m Should Mike Pettine get the Browns HC job, I'm told Alex Van Pelt (Pack RB coach) high on his list as Offensive Coordinator candidates Interesting - what's the past Pettine-Van Pelt connection? Or is it just that he knows AVP is in line for the Bills QB coach job and is willing to raise the stakes?

I think Pettine coached at Pitt at one point and AVP played there... that's all I can come up with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonborn10 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Looks like the Browns are willing to wait for Quinn. The only risk is that Pete Carrol would retire if the Seahawks win the SuperBowl and Quinn would be the HC. That seems unlikley. Quinn probably would have withdrawn his name by now. I suspect after Case withdrew Quinn was they guy they wanted. I think the Bills dodged a bullet for a year. Next year the Jets will suck again and Rex will get canned. Pettine will get the Raiders or Cowboys job and we can bring in Rex to run the defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubes Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Can't believe nobody posted this yet... sonofbum Yes I would go back to where I have been before.I enjoyed and was treated well at all my stops. I just want to help a team win this year. 1/22/14, 9:02 AM danielthomsen @sonofbum I loved watching your teams play in Buffalo. You were a stellar coach for us and I'd love to see you back if Pettine departs. 1/22/14, 10:43 AM I thought originally that Wade's tweet was in response to the other guy's, but it seems not based on time. I'm not sure why Wade was tweeting that in particular. Edited January 22, 2014 by Rubes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincec Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 At this point, Pettine would probably get a better job next year. His name is now out there as a legit head coaching candidate so he'll demand plenty of interviews next year. His best move might be to pull name out of process when it looks like job was his for the taking, instead of potentially being passed over. If the defense improves next season then he'll likely be gone. No question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beerme1 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I'll say it again, in a different way --- would we all be so concerned and worried if Doug Marrone was given permission to talk to the Browns ? . . . . ask yourself that question . . . . promote Pettine to HC and fire Marrone ! Sounds like something the Browns would do. Or maybe Crazy Al if he were still around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 My guess is that one of three things will happen with this: 1) They hire Pettine by the EOD 2) They hire the Atlanta guy by the EOD 3) They tell Pettine, by the end of the day, that they need more time to do more due diligence and Pettine withdraws. I agree with this. Rev your F5 engines, boys-- we have another 4 hours to go!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuntheDamnBall Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Hire Flutie for the QB Coach Position and we would be well on our way! That sounds like a great idea. I can almost visualize a late-night coaching session: DF: You're doing it wrong. Honestly, I could do it better if Marrone would just give me a chance.

TXBILLSFAN Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) AVP vs. Hackett ? --- I'd call it a push --- might even give edge to AVP, he sure made Matt Flynn viable for a few starts and knows the Packer offense Edited January 22, 2014 by TXBILLSFAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuyInMalta Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Uh oh. The Bills main page on BuffaloBills.com just shifted to a lead story about the Bills being "prepared" in case Pettine leaves. What's interesting is that they already posted this story yesterday...now it gets bumped to the front page. *dun dun dun* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
