The Bills are running under a different order. Years ago, before Ralph Wilson turned over the franchise to Russ Brandon, hiring a new coordinator often was a major project. It required approval from Wilson. It meant getting a contract past his money man, Jeffrey Littman, which often was another long and tedious chore.
Wilson, if he were still running the show, might have nuked the Schwartz idea given the owner’s proximity to Detroit and the Lions’ problems under their coach.
Thankfully, those days are gone. Ralph stays informed but no longer calls the shots. The current Bills’ hierarchy has the power to cut through the red tape and react when necessary, so they did.
