He was actually a very good HC that did the best he could with limited resources and at times a GM by committee systems which would step on its own feet. Some of his defenses during the “cash to the cap” Ralph/Marv era were pretty sick all things considered particularly the secondaries he had.
He also had a very funny and dry sense of humor. The infamous “we punted well” quote was really just a self effacing sarcastic recognition of work to that needed to be done.
regardless RIP to an all around good person and a part of Bills history.
