    Marv Levy has been asked to coach in the NFL...

    Last night Marv said that he has been approached by two teams about coaching them next year. He said that one of them has not been the Buffalo Bills. Could the other one be the Buffalo Bills? Is ML too old to coach?

    I think he should leave the Legacy in the HOF and not worry about coming back.

    I agree.
    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

    Marv is not the answer. I love the guy but he is old as hell and won't have Bill Polian feeding him talent!

    He was a scapegoat for the 4 Superbowl losses.

    Re: Marv Levy has been asked to coach in the NFL...

    Well if Marv decides to definitly come back to the NFL, I'd like to have him in Buffalo. He might be a short term answer but this team isn't going any where for a few years anyway. Let him come in and build like old Gibbs is in Washington.

    I bet Detroit is one team and St Louis is probably the other. Both are without coaches for one reason or another and it only makes sense for those teams to be looking past this season.

    The Bills wouldn't approach Marv about coaching next season unless Ralph got on the horn and gave him a personal invite on the down low. It's bad for business when you currently have a coach in place.

    Of course, Ralph will let the next GM choose the next HC when both TD and Mularkey have received pink slips.

    But again, if Marv has definitly decide to come back, I hope the next GM at least considers him an option.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Houston contacted him... they hired Reeves as a consultant.

    Aren't Marv and Dan Reeves buddies or something?

    Id like Marv back but not as coach maybe in some other position! He already is familar with the orginization and could be of some help! I m wanting to see JJ come in and start coaching! Yeah I know he coached the Cowboys and Dolphins but he has rings and if he can come to Buffalo and get their house in order then Id gladly accept him!

    Ummm, there are not alot of choices. Let's bring him back!! I guarantee we will go to the playoffs in his first season. They were saying the same crap about Vermeil and I guess he won a SB. Reagan was President at like 78 so who cares. Let him coach!!!
