Re: The case for Billick
I wouldn't be happy with Billick. He was lucky enough to have Ozzie upstairs, drafting and providing him with some of the best prospects out of college. The guy is supposed to be known for his offense. His offense. Offense. When was anybody EVER scared of facing the unbelievably high scoring Ravens during his tenure? He's mediocre, and was lucky to have people like Marvin Lewis, and Rex Ryan running his D. He is bad at developing QB's, and I'd actually be f'n pissed if we get this guy. The ring is a smokescreen. Hey, the Bears had a great D in 1985. Ditka got his ring. But when he came back to coaching, he did squat. Some people in this world get lucky. Billick and Dilfer are two of em'.Last edited by Prov401; 01-04-2010, 12:39 PM.

Originally posted by NighthawkAnd that is a HUGE factor in picking a new HC. A guy with a reputation for being successful in the NFL will most likely be able to get better assistant coaches then a new guy who's never had to do it. I'm not ready to watch a new guy "try" to put together a good staff. I want a guy who "has" a good staff ready to go!Impossible is Nothing.

Originally posted by DemonThat's the thing right there. He has tons of connections and people will want to be on a staff with him. Hiring guys like Zimmer or Grimm will probably mean we'll hire unproven coordinators like Alex Van Pelt or something. We need guys who know what their doing.

Game show contestant
Shortly before beginning his coaching career, Billick appeared as a contestant on Match Game PM in 1977, losing to Marla Marshall.[13] Panelist Richard Dawson remarked after Billick's loss: "Failed at football. Failed at Match Game. Where will you go now?" [14]
