Lenigmusx Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 When you look at the list: HC's- Doug Marrone, Mike Mularkey, Anthony Lynn Asisstants- Jim Schwartz, Dick Labeau, Wade Phillips, Perry Fewell, Aaron Kromer, (Frank Reich just because of his playing association), Jerry Gray, Nate Hackett It is is crazy how many of these people spent time on the staff in Buffalo. I do believe that perhaps we were a stepping stone for many of them but also our poor management process post Butler put this franchise in a crazy chasm.

Malazan Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 just curious, what's the average for a team's former coaches to be on playoff teams? Are the Bills above that average? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of legitimate coaches and it screams one thing to me. Get a QB!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimmer is a great defensive coach, so there's no doubt he has a large say in game planning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either Edwards turned over a new leaf or the talent in Minny is so good that even Edwards couldn't screw it up. Probably a bit of both - Edwards Bills team had like no pass rush - and probably the worst linebackers in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills had terrible defensive talent when he was here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see, none of these aforementioned coaches were good enough for the Bills, but they seem to be just fine with other quality organisations.

Direhard Fan Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Was a stepping stone. I really believe we have turned the corner with new ownership and this group of coaches and new GM. Except maybe Dennison. That needs to be addressed. With all our draft choices we will be climbing into regular contenders. I hope! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've not had strong rosters since the 90s. Ha ha! We forced out the best coach in a decade with the #4 defense and replaced him with Rex !@#$ing Ryan and the problem is the talent? Good god.
