silvermike Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Would Brian Schotteheimer come with his father? Just to throw this out there - I haven't thought it through yet. HC: Marty Schottenheimer OC: Brian Schottenheimer DC: Eric Mangini
Reddy Freddy Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Count me among those who thinks Marty is the ultimate re-tread who is solid in the regular season but lousy when it counts (5-13 career record in the playoffs). Also, I don't know if I can take a coach who is MORE conservative than Jauron.
thewildrabbit Posted December 30, 2008 Author Posted December 30, 2008 Would Brian Schotteheimer come with his father? Just to throw this out there - I haven't thought it through yet. HC: Marty Schottenheimer OC: Brian Schottenheimer DC: Eric Mangini Yep,already stated that Marty would more then likely want to bring in his son Brian who was the offensive coordinator for the NY Jets this year. The other thing is his brother Kurt Schottenheimer who is currently the Packers secondary coach might be hired to be the defensive coordinator or for another position on the defensive coaching side. I wouldn't care if he brought in his entire family tree as long as he wins divisional games and gets the Bills to the Playoffs

WannabeGM Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 I like the idea, although his performance inthe playoffs is a little un-nerving. What about Billick? He's won.

But he could never beat anyone else in the playoffs.
bizell Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Exactly. He beat up in the AFC west for a bunch of years, big deal that division was awful for a long time.

Brandon Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Exactly. He beat up in the AFC west for a bunch of years, big deal that division was awful for a long time. But he could never beat anyone else in the playoffs. Forget winning in the playoffs, at least for now. This team needs to worry more about actually being decent for a change. Consider that he's 65 years old. He's probably not going to be with the Bills for more than 5 or 6 seasons even if by some chance he does become their next coach. Given that, he would be one of the better choices out there to right the ship and help turn this team back into a winner during the regular season and into a playoff contender. By the time this team has stabilized, Marty will probably be looking to retire and the Bills will have the opportunity to roll the dice on a new head coach if they're not satisfied with Marty's ability to produce playoff wins.

Fair points. He could get us back on track I suppose. But man, he plays a conservative, BORING style of football.
davefan66 Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Fair points. He could get us back on track I suppose. But man, he plays a conservative, BORING style of football. Sure must have been boring being a SD fan and going 14-2
Reddy Freddy Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 Sure must have been boring being a SD fan and going 14-2 No, that part would have been fun. The boredom would have set in soon after their next game. Ya know, in the playoffs.
