Ittakestime Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 I'm struggling with a lot of people on here. Daboll was thought of as the McDaniels replacement if he didn't go with McDaniels to his new team. This means that he was good enough for Belichick and good enough for Saban, but not good enough for some message board arm chair coaches. 3 1 1

Answer: pretty sure he will Will he at least call a screen pass of some sort even just once per game? Answer: pretty sure he will Looks to me based on those answers, he's already an upgrade over Dennison... But can he call a pass on 1st and goal from the 1 1/2?
Magox Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Clearly Daboll is highly regarded by the best minds in football, he is detailed oriented, known as an innovator, has won alot of meaningful games, has intimate knowledge of the Pats and is from Western NY. Plus he had that awesome 2nd half adjustment for Alabama. I'm optimistic. Having said that, we really need a QB
Seasons1992 Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Anyone who grew up in the same town as me at the same time works in my book. Now if he runs the Jauron offense, beat it!
vincec Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 It’s amazing that he gets a fourth shot at a job that he bombed at the three previous times. it makes you think that people must really see some potential in him. Or it reinforces the “old boy network” theory.
John in Jax Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) Just curious....I wonder how much influence does the head coach have on an OC during the game? Do HCs frequently override the OC and make the call themselves? What about QBs? Obviously, you would think if you have a veteran QB, and a young OC, there'd be times when the QB knows which play would be best, no? For example, the Steelers' calls on those 2 fourth and one plays yesterday.....did Tomlin have anything to do with those? What about Ben R? It'd be really interesting to know the stats regarding this matter, but I doubt that they're kept. Probably the only way to know would be to poll all the OCs in the league, and I'm sure no one would participate. Edited January 15, 2018 by John in Jax

If he ends up sucking it won't be because he doesn't care; he is just collecting a paycheck or because he bamboozled the Pegulas....hell he probably ran around his house like we all did when Andy Dalton hit Tyler Boyd. Let's cut him some slack for a bit. He's a brother. So, he’s a Russ Brandon hire.
Nanker Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Well, we have no choice in the matter. He is the new OC. Let's see how it plays out. 1

SoCal Deek Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Well there you go! I was right! Just this weekend I posted whether there was anyone in the college ranks that would be an OC candidate instead of all the NFL re-treads people were throwing out there. I'm rarely right...so I just had to say it! GO BILLS

mjt328 Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Take a look around the NFL. Most coaches/coordinators are only as good as the players they have on the roster. Our success on offense (especially in the passing game) will most likely be determined on April 26-27, during the next NFL draft. Let's take a close look at some of the other names being thrown around: Mike McCoy was ridiculously successful as an offensive coordinator with the Broncos. It even earned him a head coaching slot with the Chargers. Many Bills fans were disappointed last offseason when he chose to return to Denver instead of joining our staff. One season with Trevor Siemian under center instead of Peyton Manning, and suddenly the guy's reputation is trash. Darrell Bevell had been a hot coaching candidate when the Seahawks were at the top of their game. He was considered an innovative offensive playcaller. Marshawn Lynch walks out of town, the running game goes to poop, and suddenly Bevell is a total idiot and the most predictable coordinator on the planet. Did he forget how to call a football game, or did his talent take a nosedive? Rob Chudzinski's coaching history looks like a roller coaster. Cam Newton has a great rookie season, and "Chud" is credited with his development. He goes to the Browns, fails to get anything from Brandon Weeden, and all of a sudden doesn't know anything about developing QBs. He navigates over to the Colts with Andrew Luck, and somehow his QB genius is restored. Luck gets hurt, and he becomes an idiot once again. 6

You could be a professor at armchair NFL GM university. Best party school in the USA. Heavy drinking encouraged.

At any point in the last three years, they could have went and got a different style of quarterback and started that guy if they so chose. They didn't. They didn't go get Shady because of their QB. They went and got Shady because they WANTED to run the ball. Please stop it with the non sense... and if they had a QB who could throw reliably they wouold of thrown more. COMMON SENSE NEEDS TO BE APPLIED. Nothing wrong with having a caliber of RB like Shady on the team
BuffaloHokie13 Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 I would imagine that this hire, at least in part, is an acknowledgement of our OL being almost entirely under contract already and an effort to use a blocking scheme that they have been successful in rather than blowing the unit up and creating even more holes this offseason. Hopefully he gets his pick for QB and we take a step forwards.
