SteamRoller67 Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 I'm continually amazed at how many people love Bill Cowher. The Leno chin spitter and Gruden are the rah-rah guys in this group. I prefer a brilliant offensive mind over screaming & spitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I voted for Gruden he seems most likely. The other three want too much control and more money than Gruden. Also Gruden is the youngest out of the four and made the Raiders into a winner an accomplishment that is remarkable and if he could do that for Oakland he could do that for us. If we were going to go after a big name Gruden is most likely. Even if I could choose out of the four I would still take Gruden. We have a situation that is similar although not as bad as Oakland's was in the late 1990's. If we fail in 2009 we need to be rebuilt and Gruden seems better suited to do so. Cower- I don't like the 3-4 and he seems like he can't work with limited resources. Holmgren- Too old seems like he would be two years and done if he struggles. Shanny- Did o.k without Elway ( Best season was an apperance in the AFC title game ) but not as good as Gruden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 The other three want too much control and more money than Gruden. I want someone who wants 'too much control' and can build a winner without imput from the marketing dept. Holmgren would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not like Gruden ever had a lot of good young talent at qb in Tampa. He just never drafted one high enough. I think if he got a good talent at qb he would stick with him and more so if he was young Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think a great offensive mind might have built a decent offense. He had seven years there to get it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Senator Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I think The Sen wants to "do him". If Texas Tech leads the nation in offense again after losing both Graham Harrell and Michael Crabtree, I think you'll see some interest in Leach at least as an Offensive Coordinator. I'd love to see what he can do in the NFL - unfortunately, as has been posted elsewhere, if the Bills are looking for a new HC and/or OC next season, it means this season has gone awry (or a pumpernickel).

I'd love to see Leach as an NFL Bills OC. Unfortunately, most of these guys want to come in and run the whole show, right away, even though they don't know the ins-and-outs of the NFL.
