Griff28 Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 Apparently getting an Interview. Tweeted by The Fan 1060 in Phoenix. https://twitter.com/...tw_p=tweetembed
SACKMARINO Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 A FREAKING OLINE COACH??? GREAT...........
3rdand12 Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 ugh. does this count for the rooney rule ?
Maddog69 Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 I'm intrigued. He was a hot commodity a few years ago. It would be interested to see who he would bring in as his coordinators. I like the idea of having a HC who is not also a coordinator/playcaller on one side of the ball. I know that Russ is well respected around the league. I would be OK with him as long as he has strong coordinators.
ALLEN1QB Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 Here we go again! Why fire one loser for another?
bills1960 Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 It's just an interview. Let's not jump to conclusions.
Billshank Redemption Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 im not gonna go crazy, idk if anone remembers but he denied the bills an interview last time around, I dont want him at all.
xsoldier54 Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 Don't know if Grimm is the answer, but I like the fact that he is a hard nosed kind of guy. This team needs to get mentally tougher and grow a set and Grimm might be the right guy to instill this kind of attitude. I am tired of the Bills getting pushed around and laughed at.
SBUffalo Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 He'd be your typical Bills hire. Cheap, no competition.
The Rev.Mattb74 ESQ. Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 ugh. does this count for the rooney rule ? No, but it does satisify the lesser known Russ rule.
Hazed and Amuzed Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 I read somewhere(I don't remember where) that Grimm was Rooneys first choice to replace Cower but the NFL intervened and said the Sterlers should go with the minority since he was qualified and the Rooney rule was in place because of them. Take that for what it's worth, I'm sure with some digging someone can fin something about it. If there is even the slightest bit of truth to that then this may be Whaleys suggestion.

You mean this is "The Reverse Rooney Rule?"

1billsfan Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 (edited) Here's a fun "Russ Grimm" fact for y'all: When Russ Grimm was drafted by the Redskins he thought the Redskins played in the state of Washington, not Washington DC. Uhhh, I'd pass. Funny how it's leaked the Bears want Mike McCoy and it's leaked the Bills want Russ Grimm...LOL Edited December 31, 2012 by 1billsfan
BillsFanForever19 Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 Didn't we want to interview him 3 years ago? I thought he told us to go fly a kite. What's changed, Russ?
aristocrat Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 We have a solid o line now...if he's brought in our off line would be coached up to the best in the league. You want a little leverage for levitre to stay, protection for a potential rookie qb and downfield maulers for Spiller and freddy...then you hire this guy.
BuffaloWings Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 Didn't we want to interview him 3 years ago? I thought he told us to go fly a kite. What's changed, Russ? Who knows...maybe he liked his situation in Arizona. I hope they call Ken Whisenhunt. As soon as I heard that he got the axe, I thought this was the guy to go after.
Coach Tuesday Posted December 31, 2012 Posted December 31, 2012 We have a solid o line now...if he's brought in our off line would be coached up to the best in the league.

Have you watched Arizona's offensive line lately?
