Ittakestime Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 1 hour ago, BillsFan4 said: I disagree that was the only reason he got the interview, but neither of us have any way of knowing so there's not much point in me trying to argue it one way or the other. I am also not so sure he will never get another shot at a HCing gig. Right now, the flavor seems to be younger and/or less experienced/first time head coaches, probably due to the success of guys like Pederson, McVay, McDermott etc. But when some of this new wave of young/inexperienced head coaches inevitably fail, NFL teams could very well go back to hiring more experienced head coaches again. These trends seem to be cyclical. If Frazier continues to do good work with Buffalo's defense, and the Bills become a successful franchise, you can bet he will get some looks. A lot of it will (likely) depend on the Bills and what type of success they have. NFL owners like hiring successful assistant coaches. There are a lot of ifs in your argument. If the Bills become a dominate D and if the league shifts their trend. By the time those happen, he will be over 60. I can't think of the last coach a team hired after the guy turned 60.

This is potential career decision if it continues to go south. The guy that drafted tebow first saw the wiriting on the wall.

Only one I can think of off the top of my head is Bruce Arians, who was hired by the cardinals in 2013 at 61yrs old IIRC. I would guess that there's been more but I'm not sure. It's definitely not the norm though. But I was mainly just answering to your definitive statement that he will never be a head coach again. I don't see where you can say 100% that he will never get another shot. It all depends on how things go. It only took what, 1 coaching cycle for the league to go from old to young, so it can happen quickly. And so can the interest in Frazier if Buffalo's defense continues to rebound. He already got a HCing look after just this 1 year. I am not saying it will or wont happen, just that you can't write it off so completely as an impossibility.

Useless tactics again, by useless trolls... Let’s make this a positive, happy place. No, we just don't expect much from you. Frank had previously worked in Indy in 2008 as an offensive assistant and quarterbacks coach for the Indianapolis Colts. After Tony Dungy retired following the 2008 season, former Colts quarterback coach Jim Caldwell took over as head coach and Reich became the new quarterbacks coach. Reich switched to wide receivers coach in 2011 but was dismissed when the entire coaching staff was released after a 2-14 season.

WideRightRevenge Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Congrats to Frank .. he's paid his dues as an OC ... happy to see him get a shot.

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Is a 5 year deal the standard for a HC? I was thinking after getting snubbed that they might go with a 3 year deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FearLess Price Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 16 hours ago, Buddo said: Congratulations to Frank. For the Colts, it seems to me that the lines of the Stones song are quite apt "You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you might just find, you get what you need". Now and then, you just get a feeling about someone, that they are the right guy for the job, and I've thought that Frank would make a good HC for a few years now. Providing it's not at the Bills expense, I hope he proves me right. I like rap. I like rock That song is awesome. Hopefully FR kicks prooves you right and trades us that 3rd overall pick.

Ill always remember Jim Kelly and other SB era Bills talking about how important Reich was to that team, and especially to Kelly himself.

Mr. WEO Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Good for Frank! The Colts is the worst HC job available unfortunately. Bad roster, looney owner and possible head case QB--whcich will make drafting a QB with their top pick tough. Good luck. This will take "the greatest comeback ever".

Stunk in Denver (and had another videotaping scandal there), and gets cold feet because he's afraid he'll get exposed away from Brady. Dude lacks confidence. I'll be surprised if he gets offered another HC gig (except Pats**, but have fun w/ that after Brady retires). Exactly. I have a feeling the Colts will wind up being very happy that McDaniels bailed on them. Congrats to Frank Reich! We all know career backup QBs make the best coaches.
