2 years ago we had a chance to pick the young offensive minded coach or the conservative defensive minded coach. 

 

We had a chance to erase almost 2 decades of mediocrity and not make the same mistake of hiring the same old defensive minded coach who has no idea how to develop a QB or run a offense. 

 

Rams took the risk, Pegula played it safe. One coach is running the best team in the NFL and the other is on a downward spiral  being blown out every other week with no real plan for the future. Offensive minds like McVay really do not come around that often in this league. He was special and we made a massive mistake not hiring him. Sean McVay would have been the perfect coach to develop Allen into the QB he has the potential to become. Missing out on players in the draft hurts, but making wrong decisions like this cripples a franchise and

When did McVay interview with the Bills?

For every Sean McVay there are guys like Chip Kelly and Josh McDaniels. I have no idea if McVay would have worked out here but given today’s NFL, I’d rather roll the dice on an offensive minded guy especially if you have a young QB.

  To my knowledge he did not.  He may have even put it out through closed channels that there were certain teams that he would not consider which included the Bills.  In my mind this happens every time we go through a HC vetting.  Sometimes word gets back to the fanbase but more than often it stays behind closed doors.

I am so glad we got another Build the Defense and Run the Ball guy in the Modern Day NFL. 

MaJ - that is still a winning formula in the NFL.  It may not be yours but you can still win that way.  Seattle and Denver - enough said.  I would say the defense needs to be Top 3 and the offense can't turn the ball over.  Jax is trying to do it but Bortles is having an awful year.

Please don't get me wrong. I wanted Allen.  And I think he still looks like any rookie would at this point.   In fact better than Goff did in his first season.  I too want a modern NFL offense that dinks and dunk and kills the defense with passes before the rush has any chance to get there.  Get me a modern NFL OC not a castoff whose last job in college was with one of about only two schools left that still runs a pro-style offense.  Bellichick brings in Chip Kelly to steal what works best in college.  Chip falls flat because he thinks he can treat NFL players like college kids. 

It's all about the coach.  And Rex and now McD are clueless.  

Don't let McBeane have another year.  They don't deserve it.

I hate to break this to you, but I hear the Bills didn't even know who was mcvay. He wasn't even on their short list for interviews. This is true because local people know wade Phillips son, who worked with and was close with mcvay. That's why Phillips is working for a 30 urd old. His son was friends with him. It's very sad. 

That said, we also let Linn go to the chargers despite many saying he was an up and Comer. Depressing.

Yes lets build the anomaly that has a razor thin margin of error and even a smaller window of long term success. That is the Run First and play defense model.

Did McVay want to go to the Rams, with their shiny #1 QB or to the Bills, with Tyrod?

 

31  years old he would have went to whatever team paid him the most. If the Bills interviewed him and offered him the job quickly he would have easily taken the offer.

Did we even have a chance at McVay?  He was never even an option

Never on their radar. I doubt we were on his.

Except that Goff hardly looked all that great as a rookie so there was a real question about whether he was a massive bust.  Wentz was the only one of the 2016 first round QBs who truly looked promising after his rookie campaign.
