Just Jack Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Seeing calls to bring Frank Reich back to coach in Buffalo got me thinking of this as a topic. How would you build a coaching staff using all former Bills players? Simple rules, any player, from 1960 to today's team, even deceased. Time on the team doesn't matter, whether it was a long-time player, or someone that was only here for a few months. Practice squad players count also. Here's the positions you need to fill Head Coach Offensive Coordinator Defensive Coordinator Special Teams Coordinator Offensive Line Coach Wide Receiver Coach Tight Ends Coach Quarter Back Coach Running Backs Coach Defensive Line Coach Linebackers Coach Safeties Coach Defensive Backs Coach Cornerbacks Coach 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To reduce Gore to just running into piles is really undercutting his abilities and knowledge. Gore served as an outstanding mentor/teacher to Singletary in his rookie season.
