PromoTheRobot Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 When we hired Marrone I think we were the first NFL vacancy filled in 2013. That was the opposite of when we hired Chan Gailey in 2010, when everyone was spoke to said "no thanks" and all that was left was Chan. But even in 2013, some disliked the Marrone hire based on his unimpressive W/L record at Syracuse. So it's 2015 and we're coach shopping again. How important is it for the Bills to hire early? Very? Not at all? Would you be okay with the Bills filling their vacancy last?
Jauronimo Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 I'd like them to hire a coach not too fast, but not too slow. Perhaps at a medium pace.
PromoTheRobot Posted January 2, 2015 Author Posted January 2, 2015 I'd like them to hire a coach not too fast, but not too slow. Perhaps at a medium pace. So don't rush the decision, even if other teams get their guy first?
Canadian Bills Fan Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 Doesn't matter how quickly. Get the right one This CBF
DCBongo Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 fast, so long as its a good choice and not a panicked decision.
TAinLack. Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 Promo, that's a tough one..., I just hope they get the right one, who ever, when ever that is! Go Bills!!!
respk Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 Depends. If their top candidate goes to the superbowl or is from Oregon or Ohio St., it's going to be awhile before the Bills can hire. If their top candidate's team has finished playing, they can hire anytime.
K D Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 they can hire a head coach whenever they find the right one. i feel like they were rushed when hiring Marrone like he was going to sign with someone else unless they signed him quickly. i'd rather they get the right person this time. we are a good team. we are 9-7 and we have most of the key players back. the QB situation might scare away some coaches but the defense is a big plus
PromoTheRobot Posted January 2, 2015 Author Posted January 2, 2015 Are we getting trolled here ptr? No. Just want to know what the ideal process is to fans.
flmike Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 That's why it's a difficult task. Others will be hiring quickly. You have to move pretty quickly, since dragging it out will prompt your top candidate to say "to heck with you guys, I'm going with ___" Still you have to interview everyone you are interested in and have a good meeting on it.
Rockinon Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 We should at least wait for the dust to settle in Philly. Maybe we sneak away with Chip Kelly.
Joaquin1119 Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 It's really hard to say. Some teams are looking for a HC right now and don't want to waste time.
skibum Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 The longer they wait, the fewer options will be available.
PromoTheRobot Posted January 2, 2015 Author Posted January 2, 2015 I guess there aren't any really hot coaching names out there. In 2013 Chip Kelly was THE guy and the Eagles got right on his case. Maybe Marrone's agent thinks St.Doug is THE guy in 2015?
Canadian Bills Fan Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 Of course. That would leave more time for snuggling after CBF
BmarvB Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 I just want them to hire a competent coach with the good sense to keep the defensive staff in place, and can raise the level of offensive production no matter who the QB is.
