In fact less talented guys often become really good coaches because they had to study things a lot harder to make it i'm not going to discount a guy like j. palmer. with his pedigree and experience. sometimes an ex qb can have all the smarts in the world but just didn't have the phyisical attributes to be very successful.

With all Pegulas money we dont surround Josh Allen with these critical teachers? How does this fit into the process? - It shows absolute zero respect for the QB position by just throw a WR coach at it Coach David CULLEY’S COACHING CAREER NFL Buffalo Bills 2017 – Quarterbacks coach Kansas City Chiefs 2013-16 Assistant Head Coach/Wide Receivers Coach Philadelphia Eagles 2011-12 Senior offensive assistant/wide receivers coach Philadelphia Eagles 1999-10 Wide receivers coach Pittsburgh Steelers 1996-98 Wide receivers coach Tampa Bay Buccaneers 1994-95 Wide receivers coach The 1st question you had about why we didn't sign a veteran QB, well I copied an article in another thread that said the Bills were looking to sign Sam bradford but obviously he opted for Arizona, Found another one where they were interested in Case Keenum and again, the WR position probably seemed better for him there is the only reason I could think of because both would be starters here also right now. So to say we didn't try to find a veteran to mentor Allen seems far fetched and we don't even know a 1/3 of what happens behind those doors, they could have been offers draft picks for a QB we have no idea of the situation. As far as the WR coach hired as a QB coach, he was recommended by Andy Reid so I'd think that would have a big influence on the decision. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Culley is an outstanding coach and very well respected in coaching circles He IS A FOOTBALL COACH first and foremost . People who know jack squat about football think since his resume doesn’t scream QB coach, he’s incompetent He has spent time around some of the best minds in football and is known as a Xs and Os coach who harps fundamentals and is a very good developer This is the 68th time I’ve typed this and it’s getting old We're seeing the ugly side of TBD.

He played four games total in the league. Coaches can be effective even with limited experience at a specific position. Last I checked we dont have Andy Reid as our head coach/offensive coordinator - we had Rick Dennison last year and a rookie OC this yr out of the Alabama ground.pound system, Andy Reid is so good and so long proven he can have captain kangaroo as his QB coach under him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont need an article about a KC coach - we know they are doing it right. Im sure there is no SI article about how the Bills have cultivated an atmosphere here for our QB position - Dennison already fired and we have a WR coach as a first time NFL QB coach AGAIN - ANDY REID is the KC Chiefs coach/offensive coordinator - he needs no help - he is proven - WE HAVE NOTHING LIKE THAT ON OUR OFFENSE We have a power house coaching staff on the defensive side and surprise surprise we keep playing over our heads on that side of the ball - gee ya think coaching over there makes a difference when we have Leslie Frazier & Mcdermott with great experience? You think its a coincidence that those 2 safeties are playing better than they were advertised? That Tre White plays as if he is a 5th overall pick rather than in late 20s?? Coaching in this league matters big time. All Im saying is the OFFENSE needs that same quality staff - and Pegula (unlike Ralph) is willing to pay for it - go get it !!!

Because it is conflict with your preconceived opinion. By the way Eric Bienemy is the offensive coordinator of the Chiefs. I am sure Reid has a lot of impact just like McD has on our D. And I am equally sure the Bills know they have to address the offense. Drafting a QB high is part of that. Coaches as part of that. And you have zero clue how the coaching is being done. And I did all that without resorting to using capital letters. Imagine that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Palmer was hired by the Bills he would have limited contact with Allen because of nfl rules limiting the time coaches can spend with players. As of now Palmer can work with Allen whenever.

Yeah, and his title is offensive coordinator. He helps out the scheme together. I just said said above I am sure Reid has a lot of impact. But you just keep showing the world that you can't read.

Marrone era was under Ralph Wilson who would not pay for top coaching staffs - this is a new era under Pegila where he will properly pay for the coaches requested ! - also under Marrone we were not grooming a QB we spent the 7th pick overall on plus gave up Cordy Glenn & two #2's to obtain . Marrone was grooming a first round pick also and yes I can compare NFL coordinators and coaches , they are in the same league Culley was a D1 QB and has been with some great coaches.

As far as the WR coach hired as a QB coach, he was recommended by Andy Reid so I'd think that would have a big influence on the decision. Exactly. I said the the same thing a while back in another thread. We know the Bills tried to sign - Josh McCown - https://jetswire.usatoday.com/2018/03/23/report-bills-were-serious-about-josh-mccown-before-he-re-signed-with-jets/ Sam Bradford - http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000920603/article/buffalo-bills-have-interest-in-qb-sam-bradford Case Keenum - According to Steve Tasker they had been trying to sign Derek Anderson all offseason, too. It just took that long to get him to agree. Then they finally landed on AJ Maccarron after striking out on the others. There very well may have been more Qbs they went after that we didn’t hear about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
