DCbillsfan Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 A bunch of head coach firings - Browns, Packers, Bengals, Fish, Jets, Broncos, and Bucs. Maybe the Cardinals Frazier and Daboll in all likelihood will get some interviews for HC jobs. McDermott needs to have some guys in mind as replacements. Plus there has to be a special teams coach out there to replace Crossman, right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steptide Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I really don't think daboll will get a head coaching job. I don't think he's quite at that level yet 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I'm sure he hasn't thought of that... Honestly, if any coach from our team gets a HC gig, I'll be super surprised. How can you justify Daboll getting a job when we had one of the worst offenses in the league? Frasier already had his shot and failed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 In the extremely unlikely event that Dabol gets hired somewhere, I would immediately go after Todd Monken or Freddie Kitchens. There should also be an o-line coach out there somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEraBills Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 He needs to be ready to find a better OL coach and drop the one we have. Look to Steve Wilks for D Coordinator if Frazier gets a gig. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach is forced to coordinate talentless group. The talentless group does not perform well. Therefore, coach must suck. It's just so unbearably awful. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing worse for a young QB than constant coach/coordinator turnover. Just ask Blaine Gabbert. Saw a stat last night in the IND/TEN game that blew me away. In 8 years in the NFL, he's had NINE different head coaches and eight OC's. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm not sure why anyone would want Frazier as a HC, but I hope someone takes him off our hands. IMO, he did a mediocre job at best with the DLine, which ended up putting a lot more pressure on the DBs...who did a great job, especially with not enough help from the DLine.

Also, I like Daboll and I am interested to see what he does with an upgraded roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlayoffsPlease Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 If he is up to the task, I would love to see what Chan Gailey could do with Josh Allen. He made Fitz into the 65 mm dollar man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The single most important thing for the Bills over the next 8 months is to retain Daboll. Allen and the rest of the offense needs continuity more than anything else at this time. There is no single player in the draft or free agency that means more to the Bills' 2019 offense than Brian Daboll. And I'm not saying Daboll is a star. I'm just saying the Bills' offense desperately needs stability. Let's see them build on Allen, Jones, Foster, Dawkins, Teller and a couple of other returnees. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Daboll seems to be a fit for this offense the way he moves guys around. Zay was wide open for the TD because the WR routes confused a decent Miami secondary.

IMO I wouldn't say it has to do anything with the coach sucking as the hand he had was obviously awful. But you think you would want to see success from someone before giving him the keys to the franchise. Once again, Not saying it was Daboll's fault that the offence sucked this year. But just saying hiring a coach with a proven track record would be an important asset IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
