New 2021 Head Coach - Who Will It Be? - Discussion

[Charge!]

If the Ravens beat the Bills and we don't hear word by Tuesday morning the Chargers have reached out to Daboll......

true.....

[powderblueboy]

Good news is we haven't hired Garrett....if we were we probably would have already

Not if we strike out with Daboll; then desperation sets in and Garrett is in play.

No, that means Staley is the one.

If its Tuesday after the Rams/Bills both lose with no word,
and we learn that Eberflus has turned down a 2nd interview and has decided to remain in Indy,
and Ugly Truth informs us that Marvin Lewis in on a plane headed for Los Angeles..

Even then you should remain calm.

Both the Rams and Bill could lose this weekend. Goff is playing with pins in his thumb and didnt look great. The Rams defense has a tough test with the Packers offense.

Bills, just have a tough test period with the Ravens and the the Bills dont have the defense that the Rams have to slow Lamar.

[chargeroo]

I wonder if the have even talked to Pederson?

[Topcat]

No need to panic. John Spanos can coach us

Baby Spanos as coach...wow, that would be a hoot...almost as funny as Johnny Boy as president of football operations...

please tell me Lewis is not a candidate!!!..... he is just like Lynn...... Lewis even loves to draft talented but undraftable thugs, thinking he can coach them out of being thugs...... some maybe successful but others clearly not......

True..... bills offense is explosive but Bills defense cannot stop the run which is doomsday against a running machine like Balt.....

My only concern is that - especially if the Bills win and Rams lose - -do the Chargers over-think and try to get the next big thing. Well maybe we need to talk to Brady again (though nobody it seems have brought Brady back for a second) - or maybe we need to look at Staley again.

Maybe it is Staley today - -but I just hope if the pick is Daboll they just stick with the plan. Don't try to overthink this

I think the other concern is that you need a back up plan in case Daboll changes his mind.

Daboll could very well be the front runner, but it wouldn’t be wise for the Chargers to wait on one candidate and not have a backup plan. The Chargers and Daboll could agree on a deal and not make it official until the Bills are done with the postseason. But a handshake agreement means nothing, just ask the Indianapolis Colts, who were spurned by Josh McDaniels in 2018.

The longer the Bills are in the playoffs, the more time Daboll has to think. He could decide to listen to the Eagles if they request permission or the Houston Texans, who restarted their head coaching search after upsetting star quarterback Deshaun Watson. Maybe Daboll decides not to ruin a good thing and stays in Buffalo.

Telesco and the Spanos family should have a second round of interviews and allow other candidates to potentially change their minds, assuming Daboll is the frontrunner. That appeared to be the plan when NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo reported Saleh was expected to meet with the Chargers in person.

He isn't. These below are the Vegas odds. If Marvin Lewis was a long-shot, Marvin Lewis would be listed. Las Vegas would love to take long-shot money from an idiot wanting to bet on Lewis.

Sources: Bills’ OC Brian Daboll has emerged as a favorite to land the Los Angeles Chargers' head coaching job: (ESPN Schefter)

We already had Bills OC

Still not my 1st choice but hope he will assemble good staff.

i guess Chargers are not as attractive as some say

Or they have their sights set on someone else.
