Punch Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I have a work friend that's an Atlanta Falcons fan. His top two choices for HC were Rex and Bowles. Oops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonborn10 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I'm still on record as wanting Bowles or Quinn. I think both would have done well in Buffalo or NY with the current personnel. I'm happy with Rex. Don't recall many in game mistakes. I also believe the only way to beat Brady is to blitz him mercilessly. So far it is a tie and the real battle will be Roman vs Gailey and EJ vs Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokinES3 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) Similar to Gailey saying that, unlike other places he has been fired from, he will always root for the a Buffalo Bills, I will always root for Chan Gailey. He was a class act, and I'm very glad to see him land on his feet as OC. I don't like how close it is to the Bills, as I will have to root for his failure twice per year, but I'm happy for him.He was all class and certainly knew how to maximize limited offensive talent. I recall reading about him insisting on addressing the team after being fired, and doing so while crying.This also sets the NY papers up for a "Toilet Bowles" headline at some point.They must be salivating in anticipation.

thewildrabbit Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Bowles did an amazing job considering all the injuries to his defense. Gonna be an interesting 2015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSBill Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 @AlbertBreer: Jets were impressed with, among other things, the staff ideas Todd Bowles had. Chan Gailey a strong possibility to be offensive coordinator. that's a line-up I would really get excited about. our new OC just has too many question marks.

eball Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 It's going to be amusing watching Saint Doug walking around in a Houston Texans visor "consulting" Bill O'Brien. Fug him. Oh, and anybody who follows Adam Schein on Twitter (@adamschein) should keep constantly asking him why Marrone doesn't have a HC gig yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fansince88 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Re Marrone, presumably he can bring Schwartz in tow, which would make him more appealing in a place like Chicago, which is very defensive minded historically. And Hackett too. Isnt he lucky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ko12010 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 They're flipping out on the Jets' message board about Gailey. Gailey is actually a good choice. Especially for a team that has little offensive talent. He'll scheme them into some production and points. Yeah, for about 4 or 5 weeks then will get shut down and not be able to adjust.

BuffaloWings Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) I wonder if the Seahawk coordinators will be left out in the cold. They probably will. If Seattle wins this weekend, can they not talk to other teams again until after the Super Bowl? I don't doubt the teams with coaching vacancies want to get things rolling now and waiting for the Seattle coordinators (should they get to the SB) would actually hurt them with scouting and draft prep.

Turbosrrgood Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Re Marrone, presumably he can bring Schwartz in tow, which would make him more appealing in a place like Chicago, which is very defensive minded historically. I highly doubt Schwartz has any particular loyalty to Marrone, they had never worked together before last year when Whaley brought him in. They are hardly a pair, Schwartz will go to the best place for him...of course CHI is certainly an option given their 4-3 personnel. I doubt Marrone gets a HC gig in the NFL this year though, too many other good candidates still out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 So much for all the talk of Dan Quinn being the shoe in for the NYETS HC job I'm guessing it's a combination of Bowles having a decent interview, along with the Jets becoming "antsy" about having to potentially wait another 2.5 weeks to get their man. If you held a gun to their heads they'd probably still say they wanted Quinn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juno999 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Marrone is interviewing with Bears, if he can bring Schwartz along with him he could appeal to them. Chicago needs to get back to that whole monsters of the midway thing. I would be interested to know how Schwartz feels about Marrone. Marrone cost his entire staff a job this year IMO. I think Schwartz along with other Bills assistants will be hired but not necessarily with Marrone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah John Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) I'm keeping my fingers crossed that what happens to Marrone is what happened to Ted Nolan -- frozen out by all the teams in the league after being HC for a Buffalo team -- although Nolan did not deserve that situation. But Marrone does deserve it. What team wants a guy with such a poor sense of loyalty? What coaching assistants and coordinators will sign up to work for a guy who shafted his staff in Buffalo so badly? Also, Nolan was canned after great success, Coach of the Year if I'm not mistaken. Marrone, not so much. Wasted a great defense by his offensive incompetence. Edited January 14, 2015 by Utah John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Utah John, not that I want to defend DM, but he had to know that with ownership than changes were going to happen.

RyanC883 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I wonder if the Seahawk coordinators will be left out in the cold. I bet Quinn ends up in ATL I have no idea how Todd Bowles will do, but right now I'd take Rex Ryan over him without hesitation. I think Bowles is a great hire for the JETS. Prob didn't want to wait on Quinn to see him snatched up by ATL, or have ATL take Bowles, and Chicago take Quinn. My predictions at this point: Quinn - Falcons HC Schwartz - Giants DC Fox - Bears HC Lebau - Cardinals DC Kubiak - Broncos HC Del Rio - Oakland HC I really have no clue where Marrone ends up and who the 49ers (I haven't heard ANYTHING about their search) hire At this point I'm thinking the 49ers want to take either of the Seattle coordinators. I would be interested to know how Schwartz feels about Marrone. Marrone cost his entire staff a job this year IMO. I think Schwartz along with other Bills assistants will be hired but not necessarily with Marrone. I wonder if Hackett will stay with the Bills as a position coach. If not, my guess is he returns to college. He was apparently decent at recruiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
