John Doohickey, of the Oakland Tribune, reports former Oakland Raiders head coach Art Shell has declined to interview for the Buffalo Bills head coaching position, according to sources.

Disclaimer -- the above is a joke...just a joke. but it does seem like guys that would seemingly want a job as an NFL head coach are turning down this opportunity. the question is why? do they know someone else is already taking it, or do they really think it's a terrible opportunity -- so terrible that it's worth turning down the chance to coach an NFL team.

Re: Rivera declines interview

Fewell is looking pretty good to me at this point. Jauron with more emotion. He might be capable of stringing together some 8-8 seasons.

Re: Rivera declines interview

Could it be that he doesn't want to be a distraction for his team going into their biggest game of the year? Maybe he'll interview after the Chargers are done for the season.

That's what I was thinking, but didn't want to come off as a dreaming homer after posting it. You dreaming homer, you.

When you put it down in words like that it's freaking eye-opening!!! That said, it all goes away if Cowher signs on the dotted line. It also all goes away if we luck into the next great coach by process of elimination -- though we won't know that's happening for a while.

Re: Rivera declines interview

I'm starting to think the Bills have been black listed for something. Firing Jauron half way through the season? He is well respected in the league.

At this point, I'm NOT against Levy returning to the sideline.

Re: Rivera declines interview

Wow this sucks. I guess Rivera thinks Cowher is goin to the Bills i'm somewhat assuming and there's no point of goin to the Bills.

Re: Rivera declines interview

Isn't it possible he is decling right now because he has a pretty big game coming up?

Kevin Acee, of the San Diego Union-Tribune, reports San Diego Chargers defensive coordinator Ron Rivera has declined to interview for any head coaching positions, according to sources. The Buffalo Bills and Seattle Seahawks asked to interview Rivera, but he declined the opportunity.

Any being the key word

Re: Rivera declines interview

Um, he said ANY coaching positions.

He wants to concentrate on the playoffs.

What a board full of whiny, paranoid drama queens.

AMEN!!!! There are many on this board who I think are mentally challenged.
The entire coaching staff was fired 6 days ago. If they hired a guy this week, many would be saying they hired to fast!!! They didn't do a proper search!!! Many of the potential "candidates" are still coaching in the Playoffs! Too many listen to the rumors, when in reality, very few really know what is going on. I think many here should get out of their feety pajamas, kiss their mommy and get out of the basement bedroom and get some fresh air.
