And why would you hire a QB who didn't win anything as the consultant?  If there's going to be a consultant, shouldn't he be a winner?

Generally speaking, great players fail as coaches … mediocre players often make excellent coaches. The name escapes me at the moment, but the QB guru who is widely credited with reinventing Josh wasn’t a good quarterback

Haha these types of things always remind me of some of the folks who call into WGR. 

 

I dunno about Fitz, but my "call into WGR" would be can someone get Stevie Johnson in here to teach his crossover move to the WRs? C'mon, Keon is a basketball guy too I bet he could pick up on it and start getting CBs all turned around like Stevie used to do with Revis. Anyway, I'll hang up and listen.

Tell me more about selling back the melted snow…

I loved the Chan Gailey designed screen.

And that's the only thing I loved about him.

The Horizontal Bop. That was the Bills offense. sideline to sideline. no vertical game lol

Gailey knew how to help Fitzmagic succeed. He had a weak arm and Chan designed around it.

 

But Ryan is one of my favorite Bills homers and smart as a whip.

Not sure he could help much for gameday though

Palmer ?

Why would Fitz want to do this? He has possibly the best job in the world right now

Haven't we had enough tragic endings?  Great competitor, fan and TV personalty, but......

Well its official, a new epoch.   Gone are the days of fans wanting Jim Kelly for OC and Thurman as running backs coach.   Today marks the dawn of a new day.  The days of Fitzpatrick as a consultant, David Nelson as a ticket agent, Marcus Stroud as head of stadium security.   Its finally time for the many players of the Drought Coalition to join forces and bring the success they could never give the Bills to a new generation of players.    How they will teach winning without ever doing it themselves is just part of the mystery.

Good question 

 

Fitz loves the Buffalo Bills

[Dan Darragh]

Did you know he went to Harvard?

So? He has expressed exactly zero interest in coaching

Snow can make good drinking water, but this is not no ordinary drinking water. This water came from the football heavens and landed on the Bills new home turf in the form of little snowflakes. Bills mafia bottled water with the Standing Buffalo label. 🦬

 

Cool, clear water...

Consulting, not coaching.

Again, he has expressed zero interest in this. He has a job where he just gives his opinions from his house for

his podcast and then once a week on TV where he is universally loved

Carson Palmer is the QB whisperer who wasn't that great of a QB.

 

Not to be confused with his brother Jordan Palmer, who also was not an accomplished QB. Jordan played for Buffalo for four days "On August 25, 2014, Palmer signed with the Buffalo Bills, but was released on August 29"

 

While they both weren't hot QBs, they managed to make a good living off of football.

 

EDIT CORRECTION: I got the Palmer's mixed up. Jordan worked with Josh.

Jordan is the one that works with Josh.  Carson was a good QB.
