Maybe the pressure too much from other teams.

Re: Babich new DC from RapSheet

Babich is a young, up-and-coming coach who’s spent the previous seven seasons with the Bills — serving in 2017 as assistant defensive backs coach before a promotion to safeties coach in 2018, where he worked until his current role as linebackers coach in 2022. The roots of Babich’s NFL coaching career began with the Carolina Panthers, where he served a year each as an administrative assistant to the coaching staff and assistant defensive backs coach. Babich would then head to the Cleveland Browns as assistant defensive backs/safeties coach from 2013-2015.

Re: Babich new DC from RapSheet

we all know this is just a title that McD will be calling the Defense ,, the Defense looked the best considering all the injurys under McDs play calling! promoting from with in tells me we are staying the coarse,,

I think they should surround Oliver with young guys with motors and not necessarily 1st and 2nd rnd picks, Bean has missed to much early maybe 4th round and later this time..

Good for him. Hopefully he can be as good of a DC as he was LB Coach

as far as coaching go's I don't think he will be taking over the defense, he is gonna hold the title and get a raise but will be doing what he is doing now, coaching the linebackers, I think he might run defensive practice's so McD can eye over all but scheme and playcalling duties will be McD's.

Re: Babich new DC from RapSheet

I don't know how he's like strategy-wise. But player development-wise, result is obvious. Do Hyde and Poyer have their best years under him? When he moved to LB coach, do the LBs had their best years? Edmunds had his best year in Bills uniform. Even the old dog Dodson showed remarkable improvement. Bernard from a big concern to a solid starter. And I know a lot of people are really excited about Williams next year just compare to what he did now vs what he showed earlier in the season.

Don't be surprised next year the Bills play a lot more base defense 4-3-4 instead of the current base of 4-2-5. It is somewhat a trend that you see 49ers, Lions etc. do when they get the base, "bigger", defense out there more than the dime. It helps to combat some the TEs in the league in both run and passing downs. The key, though, is that your 3rd LB is as good as the nickel.

There's a whole lot more to being DC than just calling plays.

Smart move.

Having HC AND DC duties for McD is not ideal.

Sure seems like McD trusts and has a good working relationship with Babich.

HC duties alone are too much for McD.

But I am 99% sure he will continue to design the plays and call them.
