You think they go Vrabel over OBrien who is already there and they need him for their new QB?

Bud Adams is a classless scumbag who liked beating the Bills after our Oilers Comeback game and Music City Forward Pass. Nothing more to it than rivalry and an owner who cant rise above it. And in this particular game the Titans blew us out so he was being a gracious winner and host and rubbing it in.

If I'm Terry then I'm asking him why I'm paying Head Coach wages for a DC and a rudderless team. Hoping for Babich if we stay in house.

I feel this was the turning point in his career... Especially with the kid on the toilet in the mirror.

The final whistle could come at 3pm if both teams have their way

If we get a fluke punt return and they do NOT get a fluke punt BLOCK like they are known to do...

I cant stand any of the Adams after that low class Bud Adams flipped off the Bills and Bills fans after a game. Money cant buy class.

I absolutely hope the Pats hire Vrabel as HC over BOB as they get ready to draft their QB of the future.

I thought Jets was his first game as it's the game after Denver. Point still stands, we scored over 30 points in his first game and looked like the Bills of 2021 again.

Kinda my point. There are no other known names to be promoted to OC like Joe Brady. We know plenty of candidates for HC, not too early to guess there. edit: If we start in the usual place, Kyle Shanahan's tree, he does have Klint Kubiak (Gary's son) and Brian Griese on staff that could be promoted to full OC. In LA with McVay you have Zac Robinson as Passing Coordinator/QB Coach. Dallas has Scott Tolzien as QB Coach. I'll keep looking but not exactly a ton of tough competition for Brady's experience.

It's a very long way of not directly saying "I like our GM more than our Coach and one had to go"

If Vrabel brings his own staff, I'd love to bring EB in as OC.

Those are OCs who are hot for HC positions. Who are the hot candidates for an OC position? A bunch of first-time playcallers or failed HCs. Blech. Which is tempered by Matt Rhule who gets most of the blame for the failing in Carolina. For real tho. Who else is out there for OC?

I mean the other Former-HC OC Candidates are: Frank Reich Arthur Smith Kliff Kingsbury... Not exactly murderers row.

LETS GOOOOOO

Maybe. Bill OBrien is already in the building and worked wonders with Zappe. If they are drafting a QB early this year, they need to retain BOB at all costs. I guess any job is better than no job but wondering if McDaniels would come back now that he isnt next in line after Belichick anymore.

If Belichick stays on and can keep BOB as OC and bring in Vrabel as DC, that will be the best coaching staff they've had in years. Maybe even decades. I was thinking BOB was the heir apparent if Bill got canned or stepped away this year, but sounds like he's trying to come back.

We do need a DC...

Sounds about right.

Points scored definitely jumped up. We went from barely being able to score 20 points, and 0 in first halves, to multiple 30 point games. And we're far more consistent. He has better prior experience than any of the other "up and coming" candidates. Short of finding a fired, offensive Head Coach who is willing to step down I'd say Brady is the hottest OC candidate out there. What other QB coaches or Offensive assistants are primed for a promotion? Agreed, what we do in the playoffs will definitely decide his fate in Buffalo and as an OC candidate around the league.

Wonder if there is any connection with McD coming from the Reid tree, and if Pederson would want our OC job in 2025.

If we bring in an outside OC, Brady will have an OC job somewhere else that day.

Havent been much impressed by the current dispensaries in Buffalo that I visited over Christmas. Decent spots for picking up edibles and that type of stuff. But the flower product was just ok, and damn expensive. Going to "my guy" is still a much better option for both quality and price. I did like Herbal IQ on Transit in Depew. Probably where I'd go back to next time as well.

He's earned the right to present Terry his plan for hiring a DC and solidifying the OC spot, so he can go back to the job he's being paid for, which is managing the entire team not just the Defense.

Agreed Pierce did a good job and has certainly earned himself an opportunity for an interview. But I also have to wonder how much of his success was due to the "rally around the interim HC" thing, versus how it looks with a real, full year and trudging through training camp, etc. I think a lot of stuff gets forgiven with interim HCs that would normally get the side-eye from some vets.
