Brian Daboll’s Temper

I think you may of missed my meaning.  I was stating that IF Daboll can show promise in becoming a good OC he can have a stable (2.3 or longer)

career in Buffalo.  I would think McDermott would like to see someone he "trusts" take over more and more of the Offense.

This would probably mean Daboll having more input on offensive coaches, players, etc.

 

Like I said, I hope it works out that way.

.....isn't the "my guys versus their guys" the norm leading to instability be it players, coaches or even Admin/FO?.....I believe (for whatever reason) Crossman is the lone holdover....but if some of these guys who get dumped hook on with another club in short order, they must see value in the guy's skills IMO.....

Brian Daboll's coaching resume':

 

Twelve jobs in 20 years.....hmmm ? 

Agreed.  That’s more than a bit scary.  I wonder how many of those positions he was fired from

The life of a coach....

 

Must be rough on young families with kids.

I don't know about Daboll's relationship with Colt McCoy but I agree with Jimmy Johnson:

 

"I don't believe in football intelligence and being dumb off the field," he said. "If he's dumb off the field, he's going to make dumb problems off the field and that's going to be just as big a problem as being dumb on the field."

 

On his "Football Life" program he said:  "Hit me in the head with a hammer the next time I want to draft a dumb guy."

 

Perhaps McCoy was a little hard-headed and that's one of the reasons Daboll dealt with him the way he did.  I've probably interviewed 1000 candidates for jobs in my professional life.  I've been able to discount probably 90% of candidates within the first 5 minutes of the interview.   If you can't reason with someone, they're going to be virtually impossible to deal with on a daily basis.

I wonder how many he was a lame duck because his head coach was fired.

 

I'm not going to label Daboll as having a temper issue based on one store about him yelling at one player.

Some of those jobs are promotions so those should not be concerns.

In cases where head coach was let go unless you have a good reputation you will be let go unless there are limits on staff funding (and there should be).

Most interesting of all: he joined Mangini before the 2007 season, and shortly afterward (September 9, 2007 to be precise) Spygate happened.  He also followed Mangini to Cleveland and served under him both years he was there. Yet the Pats took him back. Hmm. The dude's been involved in a lot of soap opera drama over the years. (He was also in NE for deflategate.)

 

Have you tracked his whereabouts during the JFK assasination?

The good news is that the Pats seem to be impressed with him such that they have hired him multiple times.

 

The bad news is that it appears that he has not impressed as an OC in the NFL.  As I recall, down here in Miami, Daboll was not well received.  

 

Let's hope that Daboll going home to Buffalo is the opportunity that will present sustained success for him.

But he does give them orange slices at halftime, so he’s not a complete monster. 

Participation ribbons after games I heard as well...everyone's a winner...

Having  a hard time caring what a second rate talent like Colt McCoy thinks about the coaching he received.  He obviously did not listen or was incapable of translating the coaching into performance, no matter the coach.
