I like this idea a lot actually. Brady didn’t quite get a fair shake going to work for Matt Rhule who seems like he is all over the place.

I think I like Doug Pederson as my first choice based on his body of work but I'm warning up to the Joe Brady idea despite how inexperienced he is.

Shea Tierney has been someone I've heard a ton about.  I literally cant believe Dorsey isnt staying.

 

Otherwise McDermott has coached with both Doug Pederson and Matt Nagy,

Nagy would sucked…he destroyed Trubisky. I just hope Ken Dorsey Stays & the pegula’s make it worth his wild to stay 

[Bag of Milk]

Just a reminder:

 

When McDermott was hiring his first offensive coordinator he interviewed Ken Dorsey among others.

He chose Rick Dennison

This can’t be happening!

Anyone who doesn't have orthodox or "old school" view on offensive play calling. I don't want to see runs on 1st and 2nd down in all situations or any of that run to open up the pass garbage. We need innovative. So Daboll but without the weird random onset run obsessions or strange need to get cute at times.

Only one I’ve seen.  He also now states the Bills are making a concerted effort to keep him.

Expand  

Yeah I wouldn't put much stock into this just yet with him being the lone wolf saying that lol. It's clearly possible, but will wait to see if anyone else reports it

[zow2]

As i said earlier in the thread,  we don’t really know that Dorsey will be a great OC.  We know he and Josh get along, ok that’s great.  I’m ok getting a respected OC in here from outside the organization.  I realize for Dorsey it would tough to step in to Daboll’s shoes in Buffalo.  He may have a tough time living up to the recent success here.  In NY he will have a couple years grace period to get the hang of being the guy.

Chad Hall would be interesting and I’d bet he gets a look. This is basically McDermott and Beans first chance at showing how they hire/ fire coordinators. Will they promote from within? Or do they go get talent.

Other than Payton That's an underwhelming  list for our next OC.  Who wants old retreads?

Expand  

You realize Daboll was essentially a retread? 

[K D]

People saying they aren't worried because who wouldn't want to work with Allen...yea but does Allen want to work with them? Learn an entire new offense, new verbage, new schemes? He was able to get better every year because they had continuity. In New England they don't change the scheme when someone leaves they just plug and play. Coaches and players, all replaceable for them. All of these other teams in turmoil replace coaches every couple of years and they start back at square one. Losing all of our offensive coaching staff is going to be an issue and I'm surprised they didn't already have a plan in place to promote within. As soon as Daboll was hired the Bills should have announced the promotion of everyone on the offensive side of the ball with Dorsey as OC

[Patrick Duffy]

It would be cool if Peyton Manning ever decides to take a crack at being an OC. I think he would do great!

For all we know maybe Dorsey told them he wanted to move on and wasn’t interested in the job remember Ken Dorsey has never called a single play at any level of football that is awfully risky for a team in a Super Bowl window

McDermott said something about "Chad Hall being a young coach who is off to a great start to his career".  That didn't sound like "guy who I'm eyeballing as the next OC"

 

 

[sirebors]

I'm curious... If an offensive coordinator leaves... Is the playbook his to take? Or is it the property of the team? Or are they both allowed access to it?

3x retread who had done poorly at 2 of his 3 previous OC positions, to boot.
