Jerry Gray to STAY as DC! Gilbride to take over QB coach too....

[Michael82]

Gregg Williams was just on WNSA. He said that Kevin Gilbride will be taking over the job of Quarterbacks Coach. Him and Bledsoe already have a good relationship and will continue to work together. Also, Gregg said that he has wanted a guy of Krumrie's experience to take over the Defensive line. Krumrie will work with the young players and has always been successful working with the rookies each year. Williams also mentioned that Jerry Gray will continue to be the Defensive Coordinator of the Buffalo Bills. The players like him and Gregg thinks he is doing a pretty good job with the talent he has. Also, Dick Lebeau is taking some time off right now and will talk more with the Bills sometime next week. Gregg is looking at Lebeau for an assistant coaching job on the staff and will be happy to get him on the team anywhere, with his experience. The Bills are interested in his experience and Gregg said that anytime you can get a good coach like that on your staff, you have to do it.

Could you see TD's hand in the small of GW's back?

Were TD's lips moving?

Really........GW is full of crap. If TD did not force him to hire Lebeau he never would!

[Novacane]

ANother thing for GW . If he says having experienced coach's is so important than why did he hire a bunch of rookies in the first place? He's full of crap!

[Michael82]

Hmmm...Lebeau as the assistant Defensive coach and LB Coach...then Spikes could get reeled in. Lebeau would be his position coach and he would get to help him out with the new playbook.

I wondered that myself! Gregg never wanted experience before! But now...he loves it. He wants experience and not young rookie coaches.

All of GW's strengths that were touted to us when he was hired turned out to be a bunch of stinking lies.

Is he all that organized?
Does his staff teach? Weren't they among the most penalized team in the league? Is he really connected, keeping detailed notes, about coaches all over the country?

Why are we retooling the coaching staff to such a massive degree if this were such a great move in the first place?

Bledsoe Did you ever stop to THINK that he realized his mistake by what the coaches produced, that you need to have some experience in the NFL. It's call learning by your mistakes. I would be more upset to hear him say, well this guy didn't work so I will bring in another college coach without any NFL experience! BTW how long will it take for the negitives to come out about Krumrie on the board. Probably while I'm typing this.

give GW a break. He came in here and hired some coaches. Smartly he realized they weren't good enough. Weather he made this decision on his own or with TD doesn't matter. The point is that he realized his mistakes and is now correcting them by hiring more experienced people.

Good post!

I totally agree. Maybe he decided to give his whole staff two years and now realized that his defensive players could use a more experienced coaching staff to help out. Lebeau will definitely help out all the young players that are on this team, if he is hired.

For all you people that think TD is making all these coaching hirings take a look at this quote (you anti-GW people probably won't believe it anyway)

"On Thursday, Cincinnati Bengals assistant coach Tim Krumrie visited Buffalo to meet with head coach Gregg Williams."

No where does it say TD interviewed Krumrie. GW is the guy who conducted the interview and decided to hire this guy. Think of this just as a rookie player improves so does a rookie coach and GW was a rookie coach at the time and now he is improving.

oh the link for the quote is http://www.buffalobills.com/news/ind...cont_id=157103

Maybe GW is starting to learn a few things...like that coaching an NFL team takes more than he thought.

He's doing it to save his job IMO. Do you really think it was his idea to fire one of his best friends? NOT!


The point is......TD realized his mistake by letting GW hire all these rookies in the first place. If TD was not putting down the hammer we'd still be stuck with Shepard, Vinklarek, etc.
