Will your niece be there?

I have a gut feeling that we'll go 10-6 next year. Feel free to quote me as a source.

The other issue with hiring a Greg Olson type as OC is free agency...although money plays a big part in attracting talent, so does coaching. Some guys make look at Olson and say "no thanks". That's why I really think this is nothing more than a favor to interview him...the Bills have someone else in mind.

You may be right...the raw talent he had to work with is mostly uninspiring @christrapasso QBs Greg Olson has worked with: Brees (Purdue) Garcia Kordell/Chandler/Grossman Harrington Bulger Freeman Henne Pryor/McGloin Carr Blake

Didn't we have several members embracing the idea of Childress as OC and Olson as QB coach a few days ago...like this was some dream tandem? Based on this summary, I wouldn't let Olson call Dominos for my pizza.

Good. They can do much better than Childress. This Olson meeting is nothing more than a "safety school" interview...they have another idea and will let Olson wait in the wings until after this weekend's games.

DC stands for Director of Concessions?

How does that work?

So a team that was in the playoffs just fired their OC? Whoa...wow...hire him now.....amazing how entrenched we are as Bills fans to be comfortable with Brad Childress. All good. Sorry if I came across as brass or childish.

I already did (R.E.A.D) or any of the hundreds of other options out there other than the penny that finds its way into your lint-filled pocket seen as a commodity (aka Childress). Damn...do some research and find us an Offensive Coordinator who is energetic and wants to kick some ass. Don't settle for the "third option" after McCoy and ALynn...keep looking. The fact that we haven't announced Childress is scheduled to interview gives me hope.

This is the kind of snarkiness that requires a rebuttal but, for the sake of those snowflakes who are tormented by strongly worded responses (see above), I'll refrain. If you were looking for a dog and I suggested one who is 13 years old, has shown great enthusiasm for being a dog, dedication, and sleeps a lot...the only problem is every other owner of the dog sent him to the kennel because he ***** in your kitchen every morning at 6am when you are getting ready for work...do you want him? Do you want to pay him $2 million a year? Nahhhh, I'll take the puppy and train him to work his ass off and he'll show improvement (Matt Patricia, Josh McDaniels) I gave you my data (or as you say...a point)...now respond with how a 60 year old ping pong ball who bounced from team to team is the best we can do.

In Native American culture, wasn't the fattest guy always considered the most intelligent...or am I confusing this with another group?

Antonio Brown is such a slug. They should trade him.

Substitute the cigarette for an AK47 and you might have something.

Is that a pic of Norman Bates before he lost weight?? That taxidermy looks lifelike. Now that's a gift.

http://www.chiefs.com/team/coaches/brad-childress/04173ba8-f8ee-4edf-adef-43b0fd7f918d 32 years of coaching experience and this guy hasn't sniffed Superbowl success...complete mediocrity. Yet, posters such as yourself, believe just making it to the playoffs is success. That is only a step toward success. Color me unimpressed if this is our choice. Yes, he had a great season with Brett Favre...who wouldn't. Then he was fired. The argument seems to be "Well Pete Carroll and Bill Bellicheat were coaches who failed and then had success so why should we not consider Childress? Why? Because I don't want to wait for another 32 years for him to succeed. His coaching tree includes Andy Reid, Pat Schurmer and Leslie Frazier....there's some great genetics. How about looking at a litany of college coaches who are young and dedicated to new concepts? Why do that? Well, didn't Bellicheat do that with McDaniels and Patricia? Oh wait...young guys don't have the experience and can't succeed because they don't have the experience. Bahahahaha. Here's one. http://www.wkusports.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/121416aaa.html This kid coached Deshone Kizer and has coached Stanford and Boise State...even played the position. He'll be the next big name in college football in three years. Take your research elsewhere. It's easy to pick a big stock like Exxon or IBM (1% return on your investment)...but it takes skill to find a good stock, at a reasonable price, that pays a "huge" return.

Excellent post. Thank you for that.

I'm equally tired of the moral highground arguments which suggest it is immature to respond to someone who says an opinion is ridiculous. Read his first reponse to me and perhaps you'll understand why an individual might respond in kind. Hiring Childress and Olson is akin to hiring Dave Wannstache....recycled material. Let the young fruit ripen for a few weeks. Fully ripe fruit is soft, gooey and is usually tossed aside.

You mad bro? I should name names?? Why don't you go research the names of the QB Coach and O Line coach for the Falcons, Steelers, Patriots, etc. Any coach who is not currently an Offensive Coordinator would take a job as an OC...it's a promotion. Yet, we are considering two average gents (one who is a failure and one who is an OC in name only with a record of failure elsewhere). You want sweet fruit?...go to a good, healthy tree (Falcons, Packers, Seahawks, Patriots, etc. ) and pick the young sweet fruit. Now go get your shine box.

Yeah, Childress is such an "in demand" candidate that Reid won't block him interviewing and no one else has shown interest. He has a history of mediocrity as demonstrated above. You could find a young QB coach with a passion for the game and original thoughts to stay long term rather than these poster boys for "meh".

Not much "outside the box" thinking by the Bills. Two "has been" coaches. Who is the coach that will come in with some original gameplan? Don't see him yet.

a/k/a Greg Olson's and Childress' name popping up.

LOL. 😄

Yeah...some of them need to be a given a 4th chance.

LOL
