is there a HC out there worth going after?

Is the risk reward of firing McDermott worth it? I don't see a coach out there that is worth the risk of firing McDermott. At the very least he has made the Bills relevant the last 5/6 years. Something the city was craving/needed.

 

Who is out there that would truly make a difference as HC.

 

IMO theres only 1 coach, and thats a trade with the rams for McVay.

IF we do replace McDermott with an offensive minded coach am curious who they add to the defensive to run a defense that could be without 2 of it's starting safeties from this year, possibly a starting CB and two of the best pass rushers in AJE and Floyd. Toss in imagine they'd have to find a starting caliber LB if we run a traditional 4-3.

Did you know Sean McVays qualifications to be a HC before the rams hired him at 34 years old? Did you know who Nick Siriani or Zac Taylor were before they were hired.  I ask because I did not.  I think it is silly to think fan knowledge is a meaningful factor in assessing risk

I thought we were past the stage where we were happy merely to be thought of as an actual NFL team.  We're supposed to be hoping for a superbowl victory, no?

I think asking the question is a fun exercise and good discussion. I'm interested if anyone brings up any unknown names.

 

But I agree, asking the question to refute the idea of firing the coach is not a good argument since us commoners dont have all the information the owner and his consultants have.

 

That said, Head Coach is a tough one. Not many decent candidates out there as it seems the NFL has stripped the Shanahan/McVay tree of everyone serviceable over the last 5 years.

 

When Eric Bienemy is the best known name out there, that's tough.

I’m sure there’s coaches out there that are the second winningest coach of the franchise and are just waiting to get scooped up by the bills
 

Oh wait


Come on John. Everything can run it’s course… McDermott and his tenure have done just that. Season’s fizzle out in an underwhelming fashion under this guy.

There’s a reason the guy has never been hired and forced his way into a very similar position in Washington. Have to believe he takes the reigns there whenever they decide to can Rivera. 

Given the overhaul of their “core” players on deadline day, the new owners are willing to move on from under-performers.
