BuffaloBillyG Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Just now, Just Jack said: Why not? They’re bringing in everyone. If the Browns could interview Condalezza Rice a few years back...why not. Let's get her in for an interview. Pretty sure she would demand getting her husband some WRs. 1 4 1 Quote

Beck Water Posted January 24 Posted January 24 (edited) 8 minutes ago, Simon said: Double check that I think he's been the HC there since 2021. I sit corrected. But 4 years coaching a Catholic HS isn't exactly a coaching track for the big leagues. It doesn't show fire in the belly to do whatever is needed to become a great coach, much less that he's already on the cusp of that. Doesn't say he lacks it, but he hasn't shown it. 9 minutes ago, Bills Bud said: Rivers maybe better than these coaches that could never hack it in the NFL as a player. I mean, he could be, sure. But I think most people who have done both say that coaching at a high level and playing at a high level are not the same set of skills. Edited January 24 by Beck Water Quote

It doesn't show fire in the belly to become a great coach. I'm certainly not advocating for it; the idea of him suddenly becoming an NFL HC next week is comically absurd. I do think he's probably going to end up in the league in some capacity eventually, probably sooner rather than later. I don't "love" the idea of him becoming the Bills QB coach but I don't know enough about his attention to detail or potential for success in that position to have a cow about it if he does. As for the question re: fire, I would be really hesitant to suggest Rivers lacks it. We've seen him go full psychopath on the field many times, going back all the way to his days at NC St. He doesn't strike me as a guy who is comfortable with being comfortable, or allowing those around him to be. 1 3 Quote

Rivers as a QB coach would be interesting. The thing about fire - yeah, we've seen Rivers be a helluva competitor on the football field. I would never question his fire as a player. But to my understanding, coaching requires a very different kind of fire - a passion for minutiae as it were, even with a quality assistant taking the load off, an ability to handle administrative grind capably as well as grind the details of game plans and schedules It's part of what I mean when I say to my understanding a successful coach and a successful player to some extent require different qualities.

Shortchaz Posted January 24 Posted January 24 (edited) I listened to a radio interview with Herm Edwards a few weeks ago. He explained that the Steelers had strict criteria for hiring a coach (historically), I.e. they knew what they wanted. this interview process is completely ridiculous, the bills have ZERO idea what they want. If beane is unsure and waiting for someone to tell him he probably isn’t suited for the job. I’m okay keeping beane as president but not as gm. He needs to hire a coach AND gm.

How have you determined that they have “no idea what they want”? Have you sat in on high level meetings with Bills brass? Quote

Because they have brought in people to interview? Why wouldn't you want to interview a bunch of candidates? 1 Quote
