Yes sir, I agree.  I just said the same in the Castillo thread.

Daboll has Beane's and McDermott's backing and he IS THE MAN on offense.

Looks like Robiskie is taking the fall for Kelvin Benjamin being a fat, lazy bust of a player.  It wasn't Robiskie who traded for Benjamin and anointed him the #1 WR on the team.  Robiskie had very little to work with talent-wise, but did get some of the younger guys going, which could pay off in years ahead.

I would only buy that they would make him the fall guy if KB was still here.  Our WRs need to be more consistent with catching the ball and you have to think the coaching could be better.

The Bills had historically bad WR and Oline units this season.  Truly very terrible.  Maybe it is a complete lack of talent.   But these guys are being punished for the failure.  Do people really think that Daboll has online and WR coaching systems, these  guys just could not execute for him , but a new guy will?

Interesting to see him go but if Dabol wants to bring in his own guys let him 

I think letting terry and Juan walk is ensuring Daboll sticks 

 

Agree if you were going to get rid of Daboll, you'd likely first hire a new OC, then let him decide who to stay and who goes.

I agree and also think it's a good thing. 

 

Daboll passed his audition this season IMO.  Now he gets to build his own staff and has a full off season to help get Allen & company to the next level.  I also expect that Dabol will be a key figure in who the Bills go after in the draft & FA on the offensive side of the ball. 

 

I also like the decisive way in which the Bills are making changes.

Yes, time to get younger minds and systems.

Adam Gase, Todd Haley, Mike Shula, Mike Mularkey are E-P guys. Not saying they would come here to coach receivers, but anybody who has worked under them would be well versed in the system. Robiskie made sense last year because he was coming from Mularkey's system. Jeremy Bates and Mike McCoy have some EP experience as well. Jason Michael of the Cardinals could make some sense. Eric Studesville would be a great get as a run game coordinator type guy as well.

Not sure how to feel on this one. On the one hand the WR weren't that great this year but on the other Foster developed nicely in the back half of the season.

what took him so long  ? 

: )

Yeah I agree. Castillo and Robiski weren’t Dabols guys and honestly this is a different NFL, both of them are older we need some young guys in here that are Dabols guys.

 

Castillo wasn't, but what makes you say Robieski wasn't?  He was hired a month after Daboll, no?

OK, TBN has picked this up, it's legit

No connection to Dabol. He was purely a McDermott hire. Time to get some young blood in.

Who made Foster what he's recently become?  He was nothing in college, wasn't drafted, and was cut by the Bills early on.  If his maker was Robiskie, this appears to be a bad move.

 

Looks like McDermott should get credit for Foster to me.

Perhaps they gave the assistant, Chad Hall, 1 job.....Robert Foster?

Thanks for the article.  Read the third from last paragraph.  Foster credits Robiskie.

Please just give Daboll the keys to the car. He can drive. Passengers are his choice. But please don't hire Palmer. Let him n Josh work outside the cba

 

If Daboll is successful with his guys and Josh continues to progress, he will get lots of opportunities for a HC job.  I hope they hire a young assistant OC in case he leaves down the road.

Welp- that’s two WR coaches fired in 2 years 

True, but we should have a mostly new wr room and corps starting with the rookie camp after the draft.  

So, the hiccup in continuity should be a small issue.

What is the obsession with Chad Hall in this thread?  

 

You look on Bills website and they won't even assign him a position. Literally just an offensive assistant with 2 years of experience. 

 

You dont fire Robiskie to make Hall the coach.

That's what happens when you practically lead the league in dropped passes and lazy routes.... what's taking so long on Crossman?

 

Guessing they are doing their evaluations one unit at a time - special teams might be last on the docket.

Your answer makes no sense.  You say yes.  But then in the next clause say that there is no Daboll system.  That we need different minds. 

 

Maybe I didn't understand your statement.

My point was Daboll and Castillo have different ideas as to how to run things.

It's Daboll's way now and we'll all see how that works next year.

Maybe they slide Culley to WR coach and bring in Palmer to work with Allen.

 

That's an interesting thought on Culley moving to WR and bringing in a QB coach.

 

I thought Jordan Palmer had made it pretty clear he wasn't interested in taking a coaching position with a team?

Way more work and way less independence vs. being a private coach, choosing who he wants to work with, when, and so forth.

Probsbly makes more as an independent consultant/QB coach too
