It's great to have a target you might hire, but never hurts to interview a group of candidates with diverse skill sets and backgrounds... For God’s sake, yes! Get as much input and ideas about how guys would take advantage of Allen’s talents as possible. There is literally NO downside! And if one of them absolutely blows you away, hire him! 1 4 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 2 hours ago, leh-nerd skin-erd said: Well, in fairness, we know that the Bills had a very high powered offense the last couple of years, a very highly ranked defense the last two years, played in an AFC championship game and Divisional round game in successive years and a fair amount of folks wanted to run the coordinators out of town as well. How much experience do those "folks" have? Running people out of town I am sure they have lots of which experience on which oil burns best and how to keep pitchforks sharp but on NFL football?

CSBill Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Isn’t coaching the Ravens wide receivers kind of the purgatory of WR coaching? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That's No Moon Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 3 hours ago, DrDawkinstein said: The knock on Payton is that he'd essentially be a 1-year rental and gone once the Dallas HC spot opens up in 2023. Which could be fine, and gives us more time to find the up-and-comer we really want to hire. But will cause more instability and turn over when Payton leaves and tries to take guys with him too. You only need another OC for 2-3 years when Daboll gets fired in NY. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouds Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Martin did a great job with the Ravens pass game, was only there this year but they were hitting a lot of big plays. Don’t want to swing the credit all to him, but his presence certainly helped, and it was a rough year for them injury wise. Good luck to him.

McBean Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Anybody wanting Tee Martin knows zero about football. Im a huge college football fan and so many USC and Tennessee fans hated the guy it was insane. Hes a horrible horrible play caller. Hiring him would be a complete t total disaster. 50 minutes ago, Coach Tuesday said: Stick around, we’ll let you know exactly how you should feel about it within a few more pages.

y2zipper Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Do the due diligence and hire somebody that makes sense. Dorsey is definitely going to get a look, but it's always a little hard to believe that the best guy is sitting right there in your own building without even taking a look outside. The promoted guy who was there before works a lot less often than people think. The offensive coordinator role is a huge pair of shoes to fill considering Daboll's success here at Buffalo should be taking it pretty seriously, as they seem to be.

Logic Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) People make such simple abstractions, like "why would the Bills want a WR coach from a bad passing offense?!", as if the performance of an entire unit of offensive football (and of a quarterback, for that matter) boil down to how good a job the WR coach was doing. Given that Beane and McDermott have known that Daboll's exit was likely coming for about two seasons now, and that they're two of the most diligent, meticulous planners on the planet....you'd like to think that they've given this A LOT of thought. I'm not saying we should mindlessly trust whatever decision they ultimately wind up making, but I AM saying that they have more information, more insight, and have devoted A LOT more time and research to this hire than any one on this board. Anyone they think is worth interviewing for such an important job during such an important juncture of their Bills careers, probably IS worth interviewing.

As I remember it, Syracuse with McNabb made a great comeback to take the lead. Then after a questionable PI call Tennessee kicked the winning field goal with a few seconds left.

Yeah, Tennessee went on to win it all. That game was an instant classic. I think that was the year McNabb went into Ann Harbor and took down Brady's Wolverines also. Cuse had a great team that year, just underachieved iirc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be right but I am not 100% sure. It is frequently said in Tide Fan circles that Daboll wanted to pull Hurts for the pre injury Tua early in the season and Saban refused to do so. When Saban did put Tua in there, they won a National Title. I'm not ready to give Daboll all, or even the bulk of the credit. The offense of that particuar team was SO good that Tua, Najee Harris, and Davonta Smith were second string freshmen!!! Personally, I think that their best OC in recent times was Sarkisian. I think that Daboll prefered the NFL over college by a huge margin. Imo, being a college coach is MUCH harder and time demanding given the recruiting responsibility. Multiply this times at least 2 or more when you are working for an overbearing, obsessed Saban. The thing is, when you work under Saban, it really does pay. Ask Daboll, Sarkisian, Kirby, Jimbo, Kiffen, Locksley, and MANY other multi-millionaires. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
