NavyBillsFan Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 Not a very good HC but as a cord. He will do wonders here in Buffalo! I know MM and him are friends. Hope something plays out on that one... I dont want to see another Pittsburgh guy here but Dom is a OUTSTANDING cord! Get him Marv! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the 4-3 worked so well for us last season? If we get Capers he can do what he thinks is best as far as I'm concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He lived with a 4/3 until he was able to get personnel suited to the 3/4 and they still had problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gantrules Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 Whaddya think about Wyche getting the OC job? Of course the QB would have to learn hand signals in case he loses his voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are already short at DT and Sam Adams may be gone after this year. Even if Sam stays (he deserved the Pro Bowl honor he got just last year) his style is not to be the stay at home run stuffer you need in a 3-4 but instead to use his incredibly quick first step to penetrate the backfield. LB is a an "issue" if we switch to a 4-3, but DT is a "problem" due to the personnel we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
