JPP Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Yeah lets just move backwards....this thread is backwards....big NO
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Plus he has already got his shot as a HC, we cannot cash in to get two 3rd rd picks. He checks no boxes and does nothing to improve this offense.

Maybe that was because Rex didn't meddle in the offense. The Bills scored 31 points the game Roman was fired after. They had a lot of talent on offense in 2016 that left a year or 2 later. Lynn didn't show me anything that made me think he was a good offensive coordinator. I must admit that I never want any coach who was part of the Rex Ryan clown show ever to walk the Buffalo Bills sidelines again. 1
billsfan89 Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 I am not sure Lynn would fit, I think he will get an OC position, but I think the passing attack with Josh is clearly the strength of this offense and I am not sure Lynn would be able to craft that type of offense. If Daboll leaves I wouldn't hate seeing Lynn, as he did good with the rookie the Chargers had this year but I think there might either be an internal candidate that is better or another outside candidate that is a better fit. Long story short wouldn't hate Lynn as OC if Daboll leaves but there might be a better fit for Josh than Lynn.
Buffalo03 Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 If Daboll leaves, more than likely we will go with Ken Dorsey which is the current QB coach. Someone that Allen is familiar with. 1

r00tabaga Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) Ken Dorsey. I would be surprised if he hasn’t been groomed in some way. Close with Allen. Close with Dabs. Stay in house. Edited January 4, 2021 by r00tabaga 3

BuffaloBobs Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) I would be stunned if we changed philosophies after this season and shocked if we didn't hire from within if Daboll departed. Edited January 4, 2021 by BuffaloBobs 1

Straight Hucklebuck Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 37 minutes ago, unbillievable said: Lynn is well respected coach. He's a culture fit. Also, he would help the run game and short passing game; the Bills' (arguably) least effective facet of the offense. Not to Mention Herbert was still slinging the ball out there. He lost games because he routinely sat on leads and went conservative. And the “run game” is perfect the way it is. A support function for a team that leads with passing. Lynn is a Rex Ryan holdover.
foreboding Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Why? Would we not prefer to keep the exact same system? You want to bring a coach here and teach him the Daboll system when we have 1 or 2 (at least) who should be able to take up the hallowed mantle of continuity...

I wonder if he is willing to come back. I want to say you are joking around but I can't tell. Anyways I can't see a scenario where if Daboll leaves that they don't promote within and they and keep around what Josh knows as much as they can
Doc Brown Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 I should do a hire Bill O'Brien thread to get a rise out of people. 1

Stay in house. Dorsey comes with some good experience. But, none as an OC. Daboll, on the other hand, had that job a few other places. (Alabama, Miami, and maybe one other) before coming here.) Also, 9 years on Belicheck's staff...but never got promoted there. I still wonder about that with the great job Dabs has done here. Of course, he has the horses, as they say, this year. The superior Josh, Diggs, Brown, Beasley.......better line. (OK, no TE really, just pretenders) Not sure Dorsey can do the schemimg needed to put together a game plan....that is taking opponent tape input used to put together the game plan every week. THAT is what the OC does. Still, I think continuity arguments and his connection to McD will result in him getting the job. Of course, its a tough situation coming in after Daboll....as he has a GREAT record this year of being a clairvoyant OC, tough act to follow.
Matt_In_NH Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 I trust Beane and McDermott to figure out the right thing vs look over the recently fired guys we have heard of.
thenorthremembers Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 I get that everyone wants to try and keep the offensive system by promoting from within, but we dont have anyone on our coaching roster that is an expert in Daboll's system. The most likely candidate to hire from within is Ken Dorsey, and he has only been with the Bills for two years now.
