947 Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 So who do we bring in for DC? I'm guessing Frazier doesn't actually come back after a year of living the retirement life. 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at the table Karlos Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 I feel like they waited to announce anything until all the HCs were hired incase they would get compensation. Didn't get hired now a move is made. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harmonkillebrew Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 What quality DC is going to accept a job for one year?? This is an odd move. If they're serious that he'll be back in 2024 then they'll probably just look to fill his shoes from within. This is so weird its almost dysfunctional. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy, I can't stand Frazier They’ll promote someone internally and it’ll be the same bend but don’t break, vanilla defense. This is McDermott’s defense, he just needs a straw man to run it.

DapperCam Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Hope he doesn’t have health issues. I wonder if McDermott will be more involved in playcalling or if we will find a replacement. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appoo Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Wouldn’t cheer this one too much folks. year offs are usually health or family crisis related and of nothing else, Frazier seems like an incredible human being 23 1 9 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWK Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 He won't be back in 2024. Still McDummy's defense, but at least Frazier is out. Great news 3 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 It was time. And when the bitterness subsides, we should all thank him and wish him well. He's a class-act whose REGULAR SEASON defenses always performed. 21 21 1 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Hope he's healthy and it's just a break from the grind. If we promote someone on the staff then Bobby Babich makes a lot of sense. Eric Washington seems possible but I wouldn't be happy with it. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won’t be back here in a year; at least I don’t think. He said he’s taking a year off football. The bills didn’t say a spot would be waiting for him.

extrahammer Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 I thought I read suspicion his contract ends on February 28th, sounds like they didn't renew him and gave the news a little PR spin? 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Otreply Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 (edited) If this is what it sounds like, LF is gone, and his replacement is already on board. Maybe just maybe we will see, a defensive scheme that is not identical from game to game, and actual adjustments during games that have actual effect on outcomes, or is this just misguided hope? Frazier is an overall good person and I wish nothing but the best for him, enjoy your retirement Leslie! GO BILLS!!!

BillsFan130 Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 I wonder if this is just a polite way of “firing” him? As Much as I don’t like Frazier as a coordinator, he seems like a great guy, so maybe McDermott didn’t want to throw him under the bus publicly 4 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
