Still no request to interview Shula.

Because it would be for head coach and not OC. If you want our offensive system and can't have Shula in a lateral move, you take the next best thing in Dorsey who will bring our system with him.

Bills are out of OC options.. all of their top targets have turned them down, probably because they do not have a QB.

I've thought we should offer Shula to them for a 6th round pick

Don't think he's reached out to Norv Turner yet.

Though if the attempt to hire Greg Olson is any indication, it sounds like McDermott wants to go back to his Philly roots and run a West Coast Offense.

Can't imagine why he wouldn't want to run a system like he saw here.

The guy who coached the Rams QBs the past few years? Yeah, I'll pass.

He was also the guy who worked with Cam and helped him to a great rookie season.

Only during the lockout. Shula was his QB coach.

After playing against it every year he might think it is difficult to beat. Plus in Buffalo you have a great running attack to survive in December. Last year we had one of the best

McDermott probably doesn't blame Dorsey for the lack of personnel to run that offense.

Shula didn't get what he needed from Gettleman nor did Ron.

But Weinke worked with his fundamentals. Something he could use another refresher in.

[Mr. Scot]

This might help explain why there hasn't been any news about Dorsey so far even after Voth had indicated another change was in the works.

The team might prefer to have him get a promotion rather than putting him through the indignity of firing him.

McDermott spent most (actually all, I think) of his pre-Carolina career watching offenses that were run by Andy Reid.

It wouldn't really be a big shock if he prefers that system.

Quote

Prior to the Panthers, Dorsey served as an instructor alongside former Panthers quarterback Chris Weinke at IMG Academy in Florida. Newton worked out at IMG prior to the 2011 draft and during the lockout that same year.

True. Then again I wonder if his dislike for Reid after being thrown under the bus would sour his feelings for all thing Reid. He hasn't publically called out Reid but I can't believe he felt good about being the sacrificial lamb

Probably not, but would he allow a personal dislike to affect his coaching choices?

He's human, but that'd seem like a "cutting off your nose to spite your face" move to me.
