BillsFanForever19 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I realized we weren't going to get a Superstar again. But really? We can't even go for Kyle Shanahan or Josh McDaniels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneBuffalo1 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I would love to see Whaley replaced by Chris Ballard and have him bring Dave Toub with him as HC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Do The Reich Thing Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 It's gonna be Reich. I'm in support of him, but it is definitely a Russ Brandon marketing move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nucci Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 After today's press conference . . . enough said. I work in a profession where the assessment of one's ability (or lackthereof) frequently is made in extreme terms - someone is either brilliant or stupid. So I'm reluctant to use an extreme adjective in assessing Whaley. But he has long seemed like a moron to me. In fact, it stuns me that somebody who sounds so inarticulate and who appears so inept in front of a microphone could have risen to his position. Is there anyone who has met Whaley who cares to comment (and hopefully to correct me)? I don't think the 2 are related....he could be a good talent evaluator, a good leader/boss but just isn't comfortable with public speaking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fan_in_tx Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 (edited) Jim Harbaugh, - Has won in college - Has won in the NFL - Would bring the attitude needed for this team to succeed - Would help Tyrod if he stays Edited January 3, 2017 by fan_in_tx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Doug Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 To me, the coaching package is much more important to me than just the HC. The coordinators they pick is going to be the deal breaker. For example, if Shanny wants to return a favor and bring his college buddy in as our DC, then his name should be crossed off. Same goes for any candidate. So, don't get your panties in a bunch if your favorite coordinator isn't selected. In fact, it stuns me that somebody who sounds so inarticulate and who appears so inept in front of a microphone could have risen to his position. Is there anyone who has met Whaley who cares to comment (and hopefully to correct me)? Sure. Don't confuse articulation with intelligence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think Whaley's bringing in Jim freakin' Harbaugh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Beard Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I want a head coach who is not a "defensive genius" or "offensive genius." I want a head coach who is a manager, organizer, strong personality, leader, serious, and flexible. Let the OC and DC do their jobs. I am tired of the idea that Hackett was the OC but he was under Marrone's thumb, Gailey was a HC and OC, Thurman was the DC but he was under Rex's thumb, etc. I also am tired of fitting the players to the scheme instead of fitting the scheme to the players. The idea that the players aren't the right fit so we will have to go through a few off-seasons until we get the players that we want is lazy and not professional.

Heitz Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Sooooo, are we / have we actually interviewed anyone yet? Joe Chenelly @jchenelly 6h6 hours ago @KyleBeachkyle21 Lynn is in the lead, but Whaley is not excited about him. Coughlin is a fav of the Pegulas. Reich is actually a possibility Also, this seems way too specific to be true... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloHokie13 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I feel like the Bills are being "Hillary Clintoned" in the media. So they're being touted as the best choice and most likely to land the top candidate, but ultimately won't? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
