They think he can suddenly walk in and be a HC and build a competent staff? Love McCown, but this is just a huge stretch It has become common place in baseball. I also think it depends who he surrounds himself with. I'm not saying I would be ecstatic if the Bills did this but I don't think it's the worst idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan4 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I was actually happy when Nick Caserio left the Patriots. Now I’m kind of wishing he would have stayed. I didn’t realize how incompetent he was 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consider Reich's persistent personal connection to and professional belief in Carson Wentz. Very much rooted in their shared faiths. Which I point out without judgment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7975 Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Oh wait this is serious. I read the title as Josh McClown and my brain interpreted Josh McDaniels. Is this team smoking crack? The guy has no coaching experience. If this happens IMO they are a bigger dumpster fire than the Jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albany,n.y. Posted January 23, 2022 Author Share Posted January 23, 2022 10 hours ago, Buffalo Barbarian said: why did tasker go nuts? Because he feels it's ridiculous to bring in a guy who recently retired as a player & has never been a coach. He's more old school and believes a coach starts at a lower point & works his way up, not go from a retired player to a head coach with no experience in between. If you want to hear what he said, I linked the show somewhere in this thread & since it is right at the beginning you don't have to fish around for where his rant starts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan4 Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Anyone else think it’s kind of telling that they haven’t even interviewed Leslie Frazier this offseason, after he was a finalist for the job last year? It makes me think that they were just using him last offseason, and viewed him as a throw away coach - someone they could have command the tank for a season and then discard. kind of pisses me off TBH. Frazier deserves better than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blank Stare Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 (edited) If it goes down, Flores shouldn’t need any other proof than this for his lawsuit. No way in the world you can tell me this guy with zero coaching credentials is the best guy for the job. The only problem is that the Texans have become a joke of a franchise and the strongest candidates don’t seem to be remotely interested, so he may actually be the best remaining guy for the job.

If O'Connell is indeed the guy (36, no HC experience, been a coach for 5 seasons) picked over Patrick Graham (well reguarded coach, almost 20 years experience) and Raheem Morris (HC experience. Ended badly however has done an excellent job since and has rebuilt his image) the NFL should brace for a sizable backlash IMO. This isn't to say that O'Connell is going to be bad.

But the optics the day after the Floresgate dropped isn't good. I think it's way worse. Yes, O'Connell has worked himself up the ranks relatively quickly, but he's been a position coach and has been an OC for 3 years for 2 different teams, and is about to take his team to the Superbowl. It's been an overall trend to hire "hot" young coaches from the Offensive side of the ball, over far more experienced Defensive guys: McVay was hired with 3 years as OC and 3 years as a position coach, and went to the Superbowl his first year. Zac Taylor was hired with 2 years as OC (one for the Dolphins and one for a college) and 5 or 6 years overall NFL experience and hey, Watch This. It's hard to argue it's inappropriate when it's a pattern that has had demonstrated success, and the position coaches for championship teams are typically a hot commodity. McCown has NO coaching experience. None. Zilch. Zippo. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
