Mister Defense Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 If Willis McGahee has a good year the Bills should have one of the best offenses in the NFL in 2007. They should hire Thurman as an offensive assisstant and have him work with McGahee. Marv wants him to get that burst that the great backs have, and Thurman can help McGahee get it. Thurman Thomas's leadership will also be good for this team, as he can foster in them the same committment to quality that he had and that this young team showed themselves to have this season.

Ill be honest. Posts that talk about bringing ex-players back to coach for the Bills are my least favorite kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the very least, he can help him pick up a blitz. LOok I'm not saying Kelly should be OC or HC or anything but there is nothing wrong with former all-time greats coming to help work with a guy during training camp. The Yankees have been doing it with former players for years and it works just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBillsFan Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 After watching years of the Thruman Thomas show back in the day, I don’t think any of the players would know what the $%^ he would be talking about... He is the blackman version to the conditioning coach on The Waterboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are more great former players that make horrible coaches than there are former great players who make great coaches. Mostly, IMO, because they cannot convey to the other player what made them great, their heart and their head and their balls and their talent.

The only former Bill who I could see being a successful consultant and maybe someday a coach would be Jim Kelly or even a Frank Reich. Thurman was a gamer and he understood what it took to get the job done on sundays but I honestly couldn't see him making the slightest difference on Willis McGahee's career.
