Coaching turnover is a yearly occurrence, and there isn't any real obligation they have to announce every business move, unless anything is contractual. Don't personally feel that they have any obligation either, but they have a close to the chest mentality with business moves, which I have to say suck as a fan starved for news, but more so appreciate at the same time.

There are a thousand questions and everyone wants answers. In almost every case there’s a perfectly sensible reason why things haven't come out yet. The Board has not approved the new comp plan, so it’s not being announced yet. They offered that job to a guy, but he’ll have to relocate and he’s working with his family to decide if they will uproot the kids. The guy in that job has a health scare and may even have to retire. That office is going to be closed, but we can’t let them know because we need the staff to service people until the new arrangements are in place. It could be almost anything you can dream of. My wife was offered a position, but they don’t want to announce it until the other candidates are notified by the CEO, and one guy is out of the country.....so you hold off a bit. No big deal. All kinds of stuff, and all valid reasons. Not the least of which is that sometimes it’s just none of your business. We don’t need a public lynching to humiliate anyone. You let them walk away quietly, wish them well and hope you can find a better replacement. Those potential replacements may have their own reasons for taking it slowly, so have contingency plans. The FO will be judged by the results of their actions. They really owe us nothing more than the product on the field. That’s how Belichick does it. It seems to work for him.

Castillo himself already talked to the Buffalo News about getting fired. It just strikes me as odd that the team hasn’t realeased a statement more than a week after it hit the media thanks, Jim Acosta. Edited January 11, 2019 by Foxx

BillnutinHouston Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 OP - two reasons: First, it's not critical to their success to fully inform their fans. Second, there's no obligation to provide up-to-the-week updates. Any other questions?

TigerJ Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 Chad Hall has been an offensive assistant with the Bills for two years. He was a WR in the NFL, having played with 3 teams over a four year playing career. I wouldn't hire him as a WR coach, and I doubt the Bills will, but it's not impossible. Matt Smiley is still on staff as a special teams assistant coach. Same deal. I'm not hiring him as my special teams coordinator, but it's not impossible for the Bills to hire in house. I don't see any offensive line assistants on staff.
TFBillsfan Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 I would have expected by now, we would have heard something related to the three openings. Thus far I’ve only seen where they were interested in OL coach from Denver.

I’ll sit back and let them do their jobs. Then hope for the best. Nothing personal, it just looks like we need to wait and see, then judge after we see what kind of results we get.

Chandler#81 Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 Then there’s the teams still playing. I agree, wait and see. I’m confident the Brass is on the job.

I hadn't checked the details on Lubick. He still doesn't have enough experience for my taste, but he does have four years as an NFL assistant WR coach and some time on the college level too.

ndirish1978 Posted January 12, 2019 Posted January 12, 2019 I think we only heard about Kugler because the request was blocked by another team and the report came from the denial. I doubt we hear anything until people are actually hired. Looks like the leaks have been plugged. 1
