New Head Coach
Let's be real. We are desparate but let's not roll us under a bus. Mariucci had his shot and I don't want him here. Billick, maybe if we had the right GM behind him. Jimmy Johnson is definately a strong canidate. He evauates personnel well and has 2 Superbowls. His job in Miami was pretty decent, not great, but Parcells went through the same thing in NE. I am throwing one more out there even though he'd be stupid to do it. Pete Carrol. Given another shot at the NFL I think he now has the maturity to be a great coach. Any other ideas?

Re: New Head Coach
Johnson would never come to a cold weather team, he spends all his free time on his boat in the Keys!
I'll give you a name. Maurice Carthon. He is under the Parcells tree, a tough guy, and will be a good coach.
I hope you take Carroll, he is not an NFL coach with his style, he would kill you!

Re: New Head Coach
What it takes to be a great headcoach in the NFL is different than what it takes to be a great headcoach in college. In the NFL Carrol won't have the talent advantage.
In the end, there are only three liberal archetypes: The fools, the beneficiaries and the crooks.

Re: New Head Coach
I'd take Carrol over Johnson.
But he be smart to stay at USC until their run is over. A chance at 3 Championships in a row is impressive. Personally I think they were the best team in college 4 years ago and this should be his chance at 4 Championships in a row.Comment

Re: New Head Coach
Somehow I doubt that Jimmy and Pete will be coaching in the NFL next season. Im starting to also doubt that we will have a new HC next season.
If Ralph hasnt fired TD by now, its never going to happen.Comment

Re: New Head Coach
I think your right, Jimmy Johnson may come in as a GM or something but I dont see him being a coach here. He aint a cold weather guy.Originally posted by NJFINSFAN1
I think a GM is the one position you dont put someone who doesnt have experience. Look at Millen. The biggest knock on him is that he went into that job with absolutley no experience.Comment

Re: New Head Coach
I think JJ would make a very good GM. He definately sees things the way they are and has a nose for defensive talent. That would be ok with me because I wouldn't have to see him on the sidelines and it would be good for him because then he could stay inside out of the cold during games.Comment

Re: New Head Coach
As good a college coach Carroll is, I'd never want him to coach the Bills. He has had two opportunities in the NFL already, and was an utter disgrace. He was soft and had no control of his teams in NE or NY.
JJ as a GM is a pretty good idea. I don't think Ralph would ever go for it. Ralph seems to be the begruding type, and I don't think he'd forget the SBs vs Dallas or the time JJ jumped up and down on the box of Flutie Flakes vs. Miami.
I like the Carthon idea, if the Bills bank yet again, on a coordinator. He is a tough, former-player (and winner) and has the Parcells pedigree (as a player and coach).

Re: New Head Coach
If Mariucci wasn't a West Coast Offense guy, I'd be all for him but the WC offense is not what we need up here - it's a complicated O that takes a few years to learn - I don't want JP to be developing any longer then necessary - I want a balanced O, that is unpredictable - shots down field, run at the left, center and right side of the O line, get the TEs involved, and create unfair matchups by lining up your #1 WR in the slot position to encourage LBer coverage on them.
I also want our D to be a bend don't break type that attacks just as often as it plays it safe.www.gamersconspiracy.com - where gamers conspireComment

Re: New Head Coach
Ralph would have to pony up some serious bucks to bring any of those guys in here.
He has yet to prove to me that he's willing to do that.Comment

Re: New Head Coach
Im still wanting Ditika or JJ! JJ does have a good track record mainly in
and wasnt to bad in Miami . But my pick would be MD hes a no nonsense coach who will not be intimidated or pushed around! Hes knowledgeable about football and a good coach to have on the sidelines!
