While certain candidates are now available for in person interviews, one of the top choices (and probably the #1 choice) is not. While they could move on without him, I'd be a little surprised if we see movement this coming week. Probably just a lot of names stopping by for some "chats".

Think it just mostly depends on if Slowik is the guy Peters really wants. This week would probably tell us he really wants one of the others (Johnson/Macdonald) if he doesn't hire Slowik. Or at the very least, would suggest he's open to them enough to potentially let Slowik slip away to another team while we wait 1-3 more weeks.

BatteredFanSyndrome Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 7 hours ago, HTTRDynasty said: Given the quality of the coaching candidates available this year, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Bills let Sean McDermott go and tried to upgrade at HC. I don’t see how they can keep repeating the same formula over and over and expect to win against this KC juggernaut, plus McDermott has made some terrible in-game clock management decisions and his defense hasn’t been that great lately. All that to say they’re a definite threat to steal Ben Johnson away if that happens. Him paired with Josh Allen would be incredible. The Bills would easily be the #1 opening and I doubt Bills fans would be able to stomach the thought of hiring Belichick at HC. Except that loss is on Allen, not the kicker, the OC or McDermott. An upgrade at HC can’t make the QB take what’s there to take. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills would easily be the #1 opening and I doubt Bills fans would be able to stomach the thought of hiring Belichick at HC. It's an intriguing situation. McDermott's season was a roller-coaster ride where they underachieved for most of the season but ended up the #2 seed after huge wins in KC and Miami. They lost their defensive leader (Matt Milano) and struggled in the secondary but were still in position to win the game. Does ownership think Bellicheck or Vrabel can take them to the next level as opposed to staying the course and adding pieces for McDermott? The only way I'd fire McDermott is if I knew I could get someone better and that is totally possible given some of the candidates out there. What could Pete Carroll do for the Bills? He's older but he has a ring and can motivate players. Still, they finished as the #2 seed in the AFC, tough to fire the coach after a season like that which included a playoff win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riggo#44 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 It's no coincidence that the people who call into 106.7 are also the same people who want to see Bieniemy as the Head Coach. In this case, correlation and causation are the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWJ Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 (edited) Let's see how patient Adam Peters and Harris and Co. are. They must be to get their guy! It could be next week or week after. Key: They must be patient. Edited January 22 by RWJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson should be available next Monday. If we don’t hire him or anyone else, then our #1 guy is likely MacDonald; who would be in the SuperBowl. We will get an idea of who we aren’t hiring this year. I figure our Rooney Rule interviews this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There may be teams that feel a bird in the hand is better than two in the bush and grab the best available early as opposed to gambling on and missing on one that is still in the playoffs. Going to be an interesting week to see which teams just go ahead and make a hire as opposed to waiting for the candidates that are still in the playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping, like you other openings are filled this week. We wait and get our guy. I got, #1 MacDonald, #2 Johnson, #3 Raheem. Really want #1 or #2 but will be happy too with Raheem.

I got, #1 MacDonald, #2 Johnson, #3 Raheem. I was all in on Johnson initially but Im now leading towards MaCdonald, my early reservations were purely because he is not on the offensive side of the ball and fears of losing our OC if they were good. More that I have thought about it and focused on MaCdonald I now lead toward him putting together a good D and trust him to find an OC. MaCdonald to me just seems to have that drive to excel in all aspects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
