Assuming he would really want to pursue a coaching career. It's too early for him to be an OC though. Isn't he older than Sean McVay?

Pederson also is a Super Bowl winning head coach, who coached an aggressive offensive style that Allen would love. He went on 4th downs plays/2 point conversions long before it popular, and Eagles players played hard for him. Plus, if/when McDermott cannot get the Bills to the promise land, Bills would have a Super Bowl coach in house!! Sign Him. Bills can't risk giving the OC job to a neophyte. Bills time is NOW!! I wrote my post above, mentioning Pederson, before reading yours. We are totally on the same page here. I think he would be an awesome hire, and he is the caliber of coach we should be signing. Why in the world would we risk things with a first time play caller? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh will make any OC look good and when after a couple years Bieniemy becomes a HC we'll get 2 3rd round comp picks. He had to learn something being besides Andy Reid for a number of years. Are we getting an extra 3rd round draft pick for Daball going to the Giants? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 3 hours ago, Victory Formation said: You judge a tree by its fruit.. Players they’ve worked with and developed.. Where their units ranked in the league statistically.. Coaches they’ve worked with.. Experience etc.. But the "fruit" for an OC is in large part not determinable from the players they've worked with and developed. And a position coach may not have much influence on "where their units ranked in the league statistically" since that may depend on how they're used, which could be "above their pay grade". Can the guy design plays? Can he integrate the passing game and the run game effectively, and avoid becoming predictable? What about his situational play calling - does he have a good "feel" for what is effective when? Until he gets a step, we really don't know. And if he's done it before, we may still not know. For example, I understood McDermott's choice of Rico Dennison. He had just won a Superbowl as OC in 2015, with an aging and ineffective formerly great QB in Peyton Manning. That looks like a great track record! But in retrospect, a lot of that success probably belonged to Kubiak, and he was lacking in personnel judgement (the rumors that he banged the table and demanded that McDermott bench Taylor for Peterman). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know if his hat is in the ring but he’s been successful as a modern nfl schemer. I suspect he’s more interested in HC opportunities. I would be happy with him here.

BuffaloBillsGospel Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I'd personally like to see Jim Caldwell as the next OC, I like his schemes, I think he's still creative and the last time I can remember Detroit being relevant he used his offensive schemes. He has experience as both a HC and OC and is said to work very well with QB's which is a huge plus. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be a move out of continuity vs knowing Dorsey is better. We are all just guessing if we think we know who is best of these 4 names. Some names we have not heard yet that we know: Doug Pederson - Heard of him. Had some decent years without a Josh Allen talent. Dave Culley - worked with Allen. Kind of blah. Bill OBrien - Good offensive coach, not a good GM. Would he want to be an OC or wait for an HC gig? Mike Leach - If we are worried about going conservative. Leach will have Allen throwing 50 times a game. I like O'Brien. I'd like to get Tony Romo out of the booth. Guy understands defenses and is dynamic. I think he'd be a great fit with Allen.

That's $18M a year, for 1 football game per week and its associated prep - most of which he does from home. I'm sure he does a thorough job, but not the 7 day a week, 16-hr day grind that an NFL OC puts in. Don't think that happens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffalo2218 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Would go with Dorsey or Pederson. As for Peyton Manning? Wouldn't mind him either, think he owes us for jinxing us vs JAX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did make Wentz look like more than he appears to be in reality. If he doesn’t get a HC gig, we could be a great next step to getting one in the short term. I trust our guys to be smarter than me or TBD in general. Far from infallible, but I like our odds. Our parts (led by Josh) make us a highly desirable destination for OC candidates with aspirations of moving up to HC. .

GreggTX Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 5 hours ago, JohnNord said: Honestly when it comes to coordinators, especially those calling plays for the first time, no one has any idea how they will be. I’m going with Ken Dorsey only because it appears Josh wanted him as OC. I would also like Chad Hall for no other reason than the fact both coaches and players seem to love him and he’s known for his work ethic. No clue about him calling plays. I don’t want Edgar Bennett…I would give Tee Martin a shot because he’s pass oriented Playcalling, the ability to hit plays that "hit 'em where they ain't." (To borrow a phrase from Ernie Nevers) is vastly underrated. I still remember a play Chan called on the 1 yard line. The defense came charging upfield and Fitz tosses this easy lob to Fred at the 1 surrounded by several OL on a middle screen. There wasn't a single defensive player on the TV screen as Fred walked into the EZ for the easiest TD of his season. Talk about getting set up! It's just too bad he fell in love with subpar QB's and incompetent DC's. He could have really used a better roster overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our TE coach Rob Boras was an offensive coordinator for the Rams under Jeff Fisher. Pretty sure he called plays. 8 hours ago, TAinLA said: Are we getting an extra 3rd round draft pick for Daball going to the Giants?

Different style of offense. I want to say he's more of a west coast guy. The mess with the eagles. Wentz regressed but could just be Wentz. He's had off field issues. Not sure if anything came of it.
