Well, this'll be interesting (Shula)

In the realm of old colleagues, Rob Chudzinski is out there too. 

Brad Childress is an old Eagles colleague and would run a similar system to Dennison (if he's not serious about retiring).

There's also Mike McCoy, Jim Caldwell, Brian Schottenheimer and potentially Jim Bob Cooter.

Word that the Bills have followed suit with us and fired offensive coordinator Rick Dennison.

Does Mike Shula's old colleague from the other side of the ball give him a landing spot?

 

 

Lol are you serious? McDerp probably hates him for making the defense work so hard while he was here

There's no way to know how McDermott feels about him, or vice versa.

McDermott, like Rivera, may already have someone in mind.  We'll see what happens.

The Bills offense was atrocious this year, but what did they expect after they released all of their WR talent. I mean they could have had Sammy Watkins, Robert Woods, and Marquise Goodwin, all of whom flourished once they left Buffalo. 

Hell maybe Shula would be the right fit, he's worked with awful receiving corps before

Whoever gets the #Bills OC job walks into a tremendous situation: Back-to-back 1st-round picks and two 2nd-round picks... with plenty of ammo for a franchise QB.

Ehh... The OC isn't deciding how to use the picks, and no QB in the draft is guaranteed to be a franchise guy. That offense has almost zero talent. Average OL and McCoy is literally it. KB I guess but he's really not that great and is a free agent in a year. If they go all in and trade up for a franchise guy then you've got a rookie QB, McCoy and nobody else. Not the best situation at all. The Bills overall are in a solid position. Playoff team with that many picks...? Let's see how Beano can use them.

    • In all honesty, he should probably get that checked out. It might be (Arnold Schwarzenegger voice) "a tuuumaaa" 
    • Ah yes, my bad. It's easy to forget those handful of games Frank coached. LOL 
    • I've seen the comp a few times, and I feel there is a lot to it. Our situation is a lot like Kansas City was pre-Mahomes (without the HOF HC) Whether you like them or not, D&D are building something here.  They had a strong draft.  The team is slowly coming together, developing some identity, and has some decent blue chip parts.  Brown, Horn, McMillan, and a good OL situation that we should keep fortifying every year.  It's not much yet, but growing.    Bryce is in that Alex Smith spot.  A top draft pick, has never been overly impressive, but you can win games when he's safe with the ball.  You're not winning because of him - maybe once in a blue moon.  From time to time he's shown the ability to orchestrate some plays and lead drives.  I just don't see anything that is like - "oh snap, yeah don't let him go, he's ours".  He'll make a solid/good throw every now and again, but man, it is a struggle a lot of the time to watch.  Some terrible performances to speak of, heck he's already been benched once during year 2.      He should in no way preclude you from flirting with what else is out there.  This is not a marriage.  If you're in position (or trade range) for a guy you REALLY like come draft day, you shoot your shot. If we are in the draft process, and suddenly realize QB3-4 is a guy we really like, that's when you make a modest jump from like 16 to 11 or something like that.  Just like the Bills did for Allen, like the Chiefs did for Mahomes.  This is nothing magical that plants this franchise savior title on them, this is not some stupid trade-- it's an easy trade up to get a guy you like w/a big ceiling.  It's all player dependent and coaching/development driven.  If we don't like a QB, by all means fortify the front-7, get an awesome OLB or ILB prospect.   But we're on year 3, you kind of know what you're getting at this point.  Mostly sub-200 yard performances, low YPA, bad technique, poor mechanics, some decent stuff sprinkled in, but some bad turnover heavy ones that kill the team's momentum.  Again, run with him if there's no complete disaster that happens the remainder of the season, but don't close the door on something better just because of the investment or debatable performances.
