BigBadBills Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 ST? DC? OC? what changes do you think Buffalo will make? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Realistically, I expect McD to move back to HC, promote Washington or Babich to DC, and probably hire Brady as OC. And Smiley stays on ST and gets a chance with a HC helping out. That is, imo, minimal changes on a staff that needs change but wont change much. 2 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikie2times Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Brady will be the OC. If we bring in or promote a DC they will have very little influence. I don’t expect anybody to even have the leash Frazier did again. McD is not about best man for the job, he’s about falling in line and doing things the way he wants. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Maybe a couple of lower level lateral transfers but that's about it. Going from 6-6 to the 2 seed and a playoff win saved a lot of jobs. McDermott may give someone the title of DC but he'll continue to call plays imo. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HomeskillitMoorman Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 (edited) It's McD, he'll scapegoat somebody. It'll be the ST coach, he has nobody else. And he'll never take accountability for himself.

DapperCam Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Special teams was a major factor in the Bills losing a few games this year (at Jets, at Eagles, DEN, KC, very nearly at LAC), and was a major factor in the Bills winning one game (at MIA). I would hope they would at least look at that and figure out wtf happened there from a management perspective. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both units got worse after the moves were made so I'd say yeah they were the wrong ones 3 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sven233 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 While I don't always agree with him, this breakdown shows the inefficiencies of the offense at times. As good as the offense was at times last night against a great defense, there are several things that could have been done better just by paying attention to the details. I know some of it may be on the players, but there are definite flaws in the play designs and the coaching of the WRs. I know Brady isn't a lock yet to be back, but if I had to guess, he'll be back. But he needs to get into the lab and iron out some of these details. I think Chad Hall leaving last season really hurt the WR room as well. You can see in this breakdown just where the lack of coaching is holding this offense back and why it is so hard on Allen and why he is forced to be Superman all the time. He has to overcome so much. So, in addition to the ST coach and DL coach being fired (I hope), I want a new WR coach and, if Brady is back, more attention to details and route spacing. Take the time to watch this.....you will see just how unprepared these players are because of bad coaching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillMafia716ix Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 (edited) Don’t see too many changes to be honest maybe a few position coaches. But I think all coordinators will remain the same. I don’t see any reason why McDermott would give up his DC position considering all the injuries. We were 6-6, left for dead and McDermott made chicken salad out of chicken shyt.

Solomon Grundy Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Mike Vrabel would get this team over the top!! Overachieved with an average, at best, QB. Would look to build a team suitable for Buffalo weather. I became a fan of his when he out-Belichicked Bill Belichick and lead his team to a victory 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should’ve been chasing Mahomes all over the place and never touched him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were playing well up until that point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chongli Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 It seems like the Bills always have lots of injuries. Is that the strength and conditioning coach's fault, or just luck? Will there be changes there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Matt Smiley should be fired and I know he has only been here 5 minutes but I'd question Adam Henry's job too given receiver performance. 1 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be absolutely shocked if Matt Smiley was special teams coordinator last season. I know that he is liked but aside from the Harty TD against Miami, his units have been and cost the Bills multiple chances to win (NYJ, DEN, KC among others) I don’t see how you can go into next season with Smiley unless it’s for the sake of continuity which is never a good thing for a failing unit. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
