‘The problem illustrated by nearly all fired coaches is that none have failed with a star quarterback, unless you count Jay Cutler as a star (I’m a Cutler fan. The Bears had no one beyond Brandon Marshall at wide-out besides rookie Alshon Jeffery, who was hurt for 1/3 of the season). Whisenhunt has succeeded with Ben Roethlisberger and Kurt Warner. The Buffalo Bills quite simply need that guy as they have for years and years. Smith has proven he can succeed with nearly anyone (went to a Super Bowl with Rex Grossman and an elite defense), so perhaps he’s best in this instance but what if you found him an elite quarterback? What if it’s Aaron Murray or Mike Glennon or whomever else? Would Smith all of the sudden go from solid coach to Belichickian?’
