Mr. WEO Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 1 hour ago, Boyst62 said: I've been singing Dorseys praises a long time and his work with the idiot in Carolina was amazing. The guy is a great QB coach and it's a shame that he had such an uncoachable talent down there. He can speak to QB's and understand the defense very well. Very happy for this. Dude will be an OC in 3 or 4 years. Dorsey was so amazing in Carolina that he turned Newton into a Rookie Pro Bowler.....2 years before he was hired as QB coach!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were these the most qualified assistant coaches that we could hire? Was Dorsey the best QB coach that was available to us? At this point, I am not sure if there is anything more important to the future success of the team than Allen's development. I also find the continuing reach back and connections to the Panthers a bit tiresome. Dont know but Cam seemed to look good early in the season. That was with Scott Turner last year.

Logic Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Just wanted to pop into say this: I LOVE the fact that Sean McDermott populated his staff with super-experienced veterans that he could lean on in his first two seasons, then replaced those experienced coaching vets with young, hungry, high energy up-and-comers once he had a handle on things. A great and methodical and totally logical approach. Love it. 10 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Senator Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 I like the way the Bills put it... Hall replaces Terry Robiskie, who left to become running backs coach for the Jacksonville Jaguars.” He didn’t leave - he was fired. He didn’t become running backs coach for the Jaguars until after the Bills fired his ass! . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cam was hurt most of last year, and correct that Dorsey was gone. Cam went to the SB and was league MVP with Dorsey as his QB coach. Cam is talented and physically gifted but not an easy guy to coach, I would assume. Josh is also talented (maybe not as much as Cam) and similarly physically gifted but much more heady, mentally focused and coachable. Imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billspro Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 1 hour ago, Bills2ref said: Love both hires. Go young with coaching and see if something sticks. No reason to hire the Culley’s Of be NFL that have been bounced around from team to team and were never that great anyways. I’ll take the unknown everytime. Much higher chance of success with a young guy than someone who has bounced around. I’m glad to see our organization head in this direction. It was hilarious to see the Dolphins hire Crossman though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 My question on this is just how much did he have to do with Foster's improvement...... Because if it was a lot...then sign me up because Foster looked like a flat bust before getting demoted to the practice squad.....then he comes back up and looks like a at worst number 2 receiver. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaches/GMs hire guys they they are familiar with and have working relationships with. This is true for most businesses, and folks in hiring positions. Truth. I was simply saying it is an evident trend that the McBeane leans towards those they had worked with in Carolina, not passing judgment. Not a huge problem unless they are dismissing candidates with superior talent for others they simply know better. I don't think we have seen that yet. I honestly feel they are trying to build a good staff, rather than the Niagra Chapter of Club Carolina. As I mentioned before McDermott has not exactly been shy about flushing former colleagues when he feels they are not getting it done and looking elsewhere I like this hire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorsey is a smart guy who played as well as he did because of his intelligence and not an over abundance of physical talent. He has been seen as having the potential to be an OC in the league. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
