BuffaloHokie13 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Smith hasn't been an OC in ten years. And he was never very good at it. Just keep Lynn as OC/AHC. He's earned at least that much. We're not hiring a defensive coordinator. We're hiring a head coach. He was OC in Jacksonville from '05 - '07, so yeah it's been a bit. But he wasn't good at it? 2005: 15th ranked offense, 12th in scoring 2006: 10th ranked offense, 9th in scoring 2007: 7th ranked offense, 6th in scoring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Taylor was an erratic passer coming out of college with great mobility and a great arm. The next receiver he hits on a crossing route will be his first. It's funny how this narrative goes. Tyrod is actually more accurate (higher QBR) in 10-20 yards over the middle than on the outside.

BilLions Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Harold Goodwin, because the Bills love to have people with the same last name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloHokie13 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 It's surprising Del Rio fired him and he never received another OC job since then. He was fired for being 'too vanilla' if memory serves. He took 2 years off from football to reflect and then teamed back up with Pete Carroll, whom he's been with ever since.

Kelly the Dog Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 At first I wanted Lynn as the lesser of evils, but because he's still under contract and may not get any of the jobs, my best case is Richard, with Lynn kept as the OC, and maybe Bradley under Richard if that's possible. I also think that combo of Richard and Lynn means Tyrod stays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BmarvB Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Looks like it's going to be Lynn and Bradley. I wonder if Kromer would be willing to stay on as a figurehead OC and oversee the offensive line? Add Norv Turner to the mix as OC if he's open to it.

FWIW, Bradley's resume to become the Skins D Coord: http://www.csnmidatlantic.com/washington-redskins/redskins-defensive-coordinator-resume-gus-bradley I liked this in 2011 "It’s amazing how the addition of some talented players can suddenly transform a defense from near the bottom of the heap one season to a top-10 unit the next. Sherman was a rookie, still learning while the safeties were hitting their stride." We could use a Safety or two, I believe - seems like he might have some insight into what makes a good one...

I just get the feeling, and maybe it's a wishful feeling, they are looking for any excuse not to hire Lynn...And I don't think that's a bad thing...

He makes Dick Jauron look like Curly Howard, comparatively-speaking. But maybe a lifeless, soulless ginger could break the streak of mediocrity.

Wideright24 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Rumor is that McDermott wants McCoy as OC. I like Richard alot but sign me up for that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 I hope that they shake the college tree. I am not a big fan of hiring Lynn. I hope with in 30 days we have a new coach. My top choice is Josh McDaniels Jim Harbaugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boater Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 What if Denver hires him? He's going to get a bunch of HC interviews. It's not even a little crazy. McDaniels is my top choice but I'd love to see them try to get Dabo. I didn't know Dabo well earlier. But I just saw this ESPN video, he'd be a great Bills coach.
