DCOrange Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 (edited) 1 hour ago, Flip Johnson said: There will be some weird hires this offseason with the trend towards innovative offensive minds. Some guys that wouldn't previously have been considered deserving will get hired, but I'm not sure that will include Daboll. Not only that, but we could end up with like 8 head coach vacancies this offseason so teams will likely have to go pretty far down the list to find their new coach. Wouldn't shock me if Daboll gets interviews. Ties to Belichick and Saban and the general consensus has been that he's done a good job this year. Allbright isn't the first person to mention Daboll as a possibility for teams this offseason. Edited December 7, 2018 by DCOrange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I drove the VW I'm sure the other drivers had a whole different opinion of me than when I drove the Audi. I was thinking of getting a bumper sticker to put on the VW saying "My other car is a new Audi" just because it really was but never did. The problem with the VW was that if it got wet it would stall out whenever the car stopped for a light. I once got stuck in a traffic jam where it was continually stalling and got a lot of grief from the people behind me. All I could think of was I should have driven in the Audi that day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCOrange Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 38 minutes ago, NewDayBills said: Daboll is a Bills fan though correct? This is his dream job. Give him another offseason to tweak and make changes. If Daboll is successful with Allen though then I could see him being a desirable HC candidate. Ultimately Daboll needs to put up numbers for a few years. Build that resume up. Being an offensive coordinator probably is not his dream job. And things change. Being the head coach at Syracuse was Doug Marrone's dream job. Then he unceremoniously left to become the head coach of his local-ish NFL team: his new dream job. Then he left Buffalo and ended up in Jacksonville. If Daboll is offered a head coaching job, I would not at all be surprised if he took it, especially coming off a season in which the offense was pretty putrid.

Virgil Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Daboll must have a lot of inappropriate pics saved in his phone of owners wives. I just don’t get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, the team is in cap hell, and old man Caughlin calls all the shots. Jags will probably be the worst opening. Just off the top of my head I would think the Redskins potential opening is easily the worst. I don't think the Jags opening is bad at all to be honest, and even so, I doubt Daboll will have his pick of the litter. If he's offered any head coaching job this offseason, it could easily end up being the only one he gets for many years. The Jags will have basically all the pieces of what should have been an elite defense intact next season (minus Dareus and probably one other underperforming player like Barry Church). Offensively, they'll have to figure out the QB position and probably iron out the O-Line but they don't have many holes to fill to be right back in the playoff picture again next year IMO Edited December 7, 2018 by DCOrange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.Y. Orangeman Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 He's not going anywhere. Blake Bortles at QB, the loss of 3 LTs and their best receiver should buy him another year, though I'd be very worried if I was Jim Caldwell and Tom Coughlin.

DCOrange Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 For what it's worth, one of the casinos in Vegas had Daboll among the top 4 most likely candidates to replace Mike McCarthy in Green Bay as of a few days ago too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiotAct Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 1 hour ago, Cheektowaga Chad said: A team hiring daboll at head coach this off season is a gutsy hire. Daboll's coaching trajectory is he will be a head coach at some point if he wants it, but to hire him this off season. What has the guy done? My thoughts exactly. He hasn’t had the greatest players to work with, but he also hasn’t shown himself (yet) to be an excellent offensive mind in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonCents Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I don’t think Daboll gets a HC job this year. A more interesting conversation would be what happens if the offense takes a major step forward next year and Allen/Daboll take the league by storm. He would definetly fit the mold of an OC who can work with a young quarterback and he would be a lock for a HC job. Would the Bills entertain promoting Daboll to HC to keep him from leaving. I know, deal with the problem when/if it comes but it’s not that far fetched. If McD still can’t get the game management part of coaching down I think they Pegulas would have a tough decision.

K-9 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 56 minutes ago, MrEpsYtown said: Marrone is going to the Jets I think. I think he wants out of Jacksonville and wants to go be with his boy Mike Maccagnan. They Jets hired their coach and GM separately, which obviously is dumb. I believe that Marrone is the guy Mike Maccagnan wants to be his head coach. If Marrone isn't fired he will probably quit anyway to go to the Jets. Oh, I don’t know. I just can’t see Marrone choosing to simply quit and walk away for another coaching job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 It would be like the last time an inept organization hired away our coordinator (Pettine). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Joe Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Funny that three weeks ago Daboll was getting fired from the Bills... now he is the trendy new Head Coach candidate.. Hope they get at least one more year out of him..I would like to see what he can do with Year 2 Allen with some weapons and an OL 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm a person potentially getting my first HC gig, the last person I want to be tied to is Chris Polian. A HC typically succeeds or fails based on the talent he has and I wouldn't trust Chris to give you any help there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 He’s not HC material yet. Still on the fence about him even being a decent OC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lofton80 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I think the coaching fraternity is pretty familiar with each other. If he was hired away, it would be for a career of work not just this season. I am curious to see how the offense runs with better personnel.
