Leslie Frasier steps away from coaching for a year

[mightysimi]

Not sure if the Carolina guy we signed will be the next up or if they will have to hire someone else. It sounds like he plans to return in 24.

Defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier has decided to take a year off from coaching.

With Frazier as their DC, the Bills have had multiple seasons where the defense ranked top five in the NFL. Since 2017, the Bills have allowed an average of 20 points per game (3rd in the NFL over that span), 315 total yards per game (1st), 202 passing yards per game (1st), 107 passing touchdowns (1st), have racked up 99 interceptions (2nd) and 158 takeaways (2nd).

Frazier plans to return for the 2024 season.

Might have health issues. More to come, I'm guessing.

Considering his contract is up in March, sounds like it might be a mutual parting of ways.

Now maybe we can get the CB’s to not give an 8-10 yard cushion.

Now is McD calling all D? Maybe Dorsey can double up kinda like a bizzaro NE?

I think scheme is the issue and if he is just gone for a year do they bother changing anything?

Someone had to take the fall for the last 4 years of failure.

Long time coming. Cya.

Say stars align and Bills make Super Bowl… then what? Bring back the guy that collapsed in the playoffs?

They hired Al Holcomb a couple of weeks ago.

Hope he's ok, health wise. Not unhappy to see him leave, however.

Great news. I'm so sick of that tampa 2 b.s. Wish we had time to look for a better replacement. Getting Jim Schwartz back would of been lovely.
