Gailey Hiring Today; 2pm Press Conference: The Bills have called a 2pm press conference persumably to introduce Chan Gailey as the Bills new head coach. It appears it was Bill Cowher who recommended him for the job and would have made him his offensive coordinator/assistant head coach if he came back this year. The Bills were rebuffed by many candidates and kept coming back to Gailey. They interviewed him last week and were impressed by the fact he has had offensive success with some lower tier quarterbacks. We will have snippets from the press conference later this afternoon. What do you think of the hire? Let us know what you think by taking the poll on our homepage!

If Cowher is in fact coming back next season then why would he want to give away the person he would grab as his OC? Total BS! Let's spin this crap hiring however we want to make us feel good. I hope that I am wrong but when we are at the end of a dead end road what else are we to do?

How about out of respect, that and the fact that he probably knows Gailey would want the job.
What happens if there is no new CBA for next year? There might be a lot of coaches who don't have a job if there's a strike. Cowher isn't going to get in the way of someone getting a job in the meantime, when the future in the business is so uncertain.
If Gailey isn't working, what do you think Cowher is going to do - pay him a retainer?
Try to think things through before claiming things are bs.

Because maybe some people like to see their friends get ahead in life. So Cowher doesn't recommend his friend for a HC job so he can sit for a year and join him as OC next year. With friends like you...........

No it's not. He can always find another OC. Whipple has been rumored for the same position under Cowher if he came back.

Cowher also recommended Gailey as his successor when he retired before the Steelers hired Tomlin.
