This is strictly based on nothing other than getting an impression that he thought very well of the Bills and the direction that they are taking. yeah, he'd be great next to John Murphy.

Augie Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 I love him in the booth, but I want to build a team to go forward.
Fadingpain Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 I would be interested in him as a coach or offensive coordinator type. I am really impressed by his intelligence as a color analyst. Not just football IQ, though that seems high but his general intelligence seems high. His experience as a good QB on a good team very recently would give him an interesting relationship with whatever new QB we bring in. Maybe we can hire him as "QB whisperer". I think he'd be super good at that.

I too am intrigued by his intelligence and wonder if he can translate that into coaching. Not that it’s a better gig than the booth, but if he found it more rewarding.... he doesn’t need the money.
Koko78 Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 I'd rather see Romo be able to walk when he's 42.

Hes right,the Bills are up and coming. They are a QB and a couple decent players away from being really good. 1. Agreed 2. Not convinced yet.
cba fan Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 If he wants to be a bridge QB for two years at 5 mill per year and QB/player coach to new drafted QB and Peterman. I would listen.

I would watch whatever game he's calling. (They must have told him to tone it down with predicting the play calling though) If McDermott and Beane are sincere about building for the future, this is exactly the sort of move they can't make. Romo, like Bradford, is one wrong hit or wrong fall away from another season-ending injury. A team can't build around him or hang their hopes on him. For Romo personally, he's in Aaron Williams territory: for your own sake and the sake of your family, retire and stay that way
jr1 Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 he shouldn't play again after all this http://www.espn.com/blog/dallas/cowboys/post/_/id/4753377/a-look-at-tony-romos-injury-history
Hapless Bills Fan Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 3 hours ago, Steptide said: I made a post last week about pegula paying Romo whatever he wants to be an offensive coach for the bills. I'd be totally on board for that Romo doesn't need the money. In the interview someone linked, Romo said that he has 3 sons (only 1 school-age) and it is special to him that he can be home during the day and focus on being a good Dad to his sons. He's really got the perfect job for that - he can call in to pre-production meetings, he can watch video from his home office (he talked about having a 3 screen setup), he flies out, does a game, flies home. If his head is still in the game, he might want to coach when his kids are older, and he'll have learned a huge amount from his opportunity of talking to different coaches week after week. But you can't buy time with your kids growing up.
CommonCents Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 Probably the same way I feel after sleeping with someone's grandmother..."I wish I had her when she was still good"

And I don't think he was that bad a QB. I just think with his injury history mixed with basically l, what 2 years of not playing...he's done. I would actually inquire if he's interested in coaching. I think he would do well grooming a young draftee.

He really riminds ne of Tony Romo. His footwork and throwing motion. Anyone else see it??? I'll have to check him out when I get time.

I think he is probably one of the most underrated QBs and is a great underdog story. His story would blend perfectly with Buffalo. But at this point, he's a liability not only to a team but to himself if he steps back onto the football field. You just never recover from back injuries. Have to agree with this. To add upon it as well.....He has nothing left to prove to himself or to others about how good he is or was. He was an under rated QB, mainly because he took so many hits from bad offensive lines in front of him. He is an awesome commentator\analyst of the game, and his intelligence for the game really shines through. I can definitely see him on the sideline as a coach at some point as well. The risk i think is to great to get an injury that he could not come back from and live a normal life. Even if he wanted to play, I would hope for him not to just for that reason. There is only one QB that I would like to see go down in a blaze of glory and pain.....and we all know who that is.

I think thats why i always thought regular show was dope too. The show is madd underdog and was underrated
