How would YOU react if offered, say, a $3 million a year raise? I could handle that “hassle” for a while. And most guys like the idea of calling their own shots. I don’t know him, so no telling how he feels about the opportunity. He’ll be 63 in a couple months, so if he is EVER going to do it, now would be the time. IMO, the Dolphins should have stuck with the guy with the hot hand. I think Ross will go for a bigger, younger name, if only for the splash. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought for sure he'd be in play for the Raiders, but with them making the playoffs its less likely. Dont see him as a fit with the Dolphins but the Bears job makes a lot of sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is interesting with him getting Multiple requests now. Definitely think he is a bigger loss tha. Daboll. But does anyone know if they hold off on these interviews until after the playoffs, assuming that coaches team continues to move on? I know there have been coaches take time to interview before even with a playoff team as teams want to move quickly. Sure seems like that would not be permitted by their team of employment but teams have filled head coaching spots prior to the Super Bowl every year. I would imagine the hiring team if very interested would wait until Frazier , for example , is done or out of the playoffs. Frazier will def be hired this year with the #1 defense. There should be some good talent available to fill , and I am much less worried about losing Daboll. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hemma Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 He’s gone, for sure. I’m hoping it’s Chicago. He’s been a great Coach and I hope his team’s owner doesn’t have the patience of a squirrel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msw2112 Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I'd hate to lost Frazier to a division rival, for sure. While I would be wary to hire him as a head coach, given that he was not successful in that role in the past, I can see many reasons why teams would want to interview him: He has NFL head coaching experience He has put up impressive numbers with his defenses in Buffalo, including the #1 statistical defense this year (albeit aided by a number of weaker offensive oppenents) He appears to carry himself with class and dignity and is well-respected by players, coaches and management throughout the league (from what I can tell) If he stays, great, but if he goes, and is not with a rival club, I wish him well.

Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 (edited) Frazier and Daboll are both interviewing on Sunday, the day after the game. This is so upsetting. If you think the fact that both of our coordinators, the day after the game, have an interview for the job they've always wanted and it's not a distraction, you're kidding yourself and are ignorant to human nature and practical matters like time and prep. They're not going into those interviews unprepared, which means they spent time and mental resources preparing this week.

I get what you're saying but Daboll and Frazier have gone through this process before. Also, a half glass full view would be they'll make sure to be extra focused on Saturday so they'll have great tape going into Sunday's interview.

If you think the Bills offense or defense can lay an egg in a playoff game the day before an interview and that won’t matter you are pretty damned naive. Imagine be able to walk into those interviews after pitching a great offensive or defensive performance against a Belichick team? Frazier and Daboll will be extremely focused this week and Saturday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great guy but not a sexy hire, boring and too conservative. He is also a former failed HC so those two things work against him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may want one but I doubt he receives an offer and interviews are just part of the obligation process. I personally would love to be wrong because the BILLS would receive a compensatory pick and perhaps have an opportunity to upgrade the position. Plenty of HC's that were fired that could make very good defensive coordinators. I still believe Brian Dabol has much better chance of being hired. Both younger & not considered a retread HC as Frazier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNYfan Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I think Frazier has a chance in Chicago, but unfortunately I agree that this looks like a Rooney Rule interview. Miami have to be looking Offense at this point with Tua at the crossroads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there is some prior agreement for him to replace Bill or anything but I do think the Kraft family love him. The issue McDaniels has landing a job anywhere else is what he did to the Colts has really left a bad taste. He has only had two interviews in the three offseasons since. There will be teams willing to take that chance but there will be others who would not touch him with a barge pole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetermansRedemption Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Why doesn’t the NFL put a stop to this? Coaches should not be interviewing during the season. Completely unnecessary distraction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T master Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 All HC ing interviews should be after the entire season is over ! Sure there are those that aren't in the play offs that could do interviews which would be fine but to make it fair they should wait until every important game is over & done .. IMHO .

Coaches should not be interviewing during the season. Completely unnecessary distraction. Indeed they expanded it so some coaches were interviewing for jobs last week even before the regular season ended. The reason is the all star games and the draft timetable. If you didn't allow interviews until after the Superbowl it would put new staffs at a huge disadvantage in terms of the draft and hiring a staff etc. You'd have to move the whole calendar around and there just isn't enough time. One alternative I have considered is having a complete bye week between the end of the regular season and the beginning of the playoffs. That way you could give hiring teams a 7 day window between black monday and the following monday to interview as many candidates as they see fit. But from then on no further interviews of guys on playoff teams. Not sure that is perfect either but delaying it all further into January isn't an option IMO. Just now, T master said: All HC ing interviews should be after the entire season is over !

So maybe it just happens that two of their preferred candidates are black? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
