Rubes Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 That's okay...if he becomes the Lions head coach and succeeds, then we'll all have a reason to trash the Bills for missing out again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkady Renko Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 A guy who could not run an offense with Jerry Porter/Randy Moss andLamant Jordan with a huge offensive line (2 1st round talent).... No thanks....I think Norv Turners tenure in the NFL is about to end.... Russ Grimm has been a pretty good coach with the steelers....His OL has been always big in setting up the Run....Plus he will like to play smash mouth football rather than some stupid gadget plays that never seem to work... 561772[/snapback] By that logic, Gregg Williams shouldn't have been hired as a DC considering his first two Buffalo teams were weak on defense.

Coach Tuesday Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 By the way, has this even been confirmed? If I'm not mistaken, Grimm is also the assistant HC for the Steelers. He's interviewing with the Lions this week, and perhaps other teams as well, for HC. Not saying it's impossible, but I just don't see us landing him as offensive coordinator.

My other thought is that he's just looking for some good TD jokes that he can use to loosen up Cowher and the team this weekend... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much like Singletary for DC, it makes no sense for Grimm to accept a lesser position, especially when his stock is rising, not dropping. I don't think he'd come cheap, either.

Buckeye Eric Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 There is a quota. For every opening each team needs to interview former players that appeared in the super bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omar Little Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 So was this story made up by the initial poster? I've heard nothing about it in other media sources. Hopefully it's true because Grimm as the Bills OC would be tremendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Campy Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 I didnt know Bills fans were so stupid. Ide be thrilled if we got him to run our offense. 561829[/snapback] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obie_wan Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 When are you going to start using "teflon Marv" in your comments? 561862[/snapback] when he earns it he hasn't done any real stupid things yet like extend Bledsoe for big cash and have the fans believe it was a pay "cut".

dundy249 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 RUmor is the Bills will be interviewing Joe Puloski this week. Joe is 17, previous experiences uncludes 190 straight wins and 10 superbowl titles as palyer/coach/gm of the Steelers in Madden 2005. Joe is also experienced with Coleco football and one time scored 200 points. Joe will not be able to take over the coaching duties until March when he turns 18. Reports are he has agreed to a 1 year deal worth almost $20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ans4e64 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Why is this OL coach and ex-NFL Guard such a hot commodity for an OC postion ? He has zero experience calling plays, from what I've read. sigh.. 561615[/snapback] an offensive line coach has to know protections, meaning all plays in the playbook and for all scenarios.

BravinSeattle Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I hope to GOD we do not hire an OL Coach as our OC. My alma mater (Auburn) did the same thing when we had a team that was ranked preseason no.1 and we we're just schooled by defenses all year. It was a disaster.

Charlie Weis coached FOUR different positions before he became a coordinator. H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
