I prefer a CEO type with no Coordinator duties. They attend the meetings for all 3 phases, give direction and then focus on the big picture and critical decisions on Sundays.

 

Coordinator/play callers typically miss the big picture like Rex did many times during the games: blown challenges, misused timeouts, dumb decisions on 4th down etc.

I agree with you completely! In addition, I think the HC duties pull them away from their coordinator role, lessening their abilities as coordinators.

Success as a coordinator does not mean success as a head coach. Just because someone can put together a great offensive or defensive gameplan doesn't mean they can communicate or provide direction for a team.

 

A successful coach must be a CEO type who can direct a team, communicate, and delegate.

 

The Bills need to evolve from the traditional NFL mentality of just hiring a hot new coordinator. Coaches need great intangibles just like great QBs do.
