Some names I've looked at, others I haven't. I'll have to take a look at some of the new guys.

Mularkey, Williams, Carroll, Nolan and Gilbride have already been NFL head coaches and the results weren't so hot.

[WadeWilson]

We finish at 6-10 or worse, howabout the Chin to Carolina and.. then I see Fox to the Bills?

Leslie+Meeks=Super Bowl

One coach who preaches front 7 play, and the other preaches secondary excellence.

You really can't go wrong there.

[Delhommey]

Barring a catastrophe or a faster than expected extension of the CBA, Fox will be here next year.

I've been leaning more towards Frazier over Cowher lately.

Let us not forget that Belichick was the HC of the Browns and was pretty miserable before he was redeemed at NE.

Although 9.7 times out of 10 it doesn't work that way. I just thought I would throw that out there.

The only name I might really be interested in of that bunch would be Nolan.

the only name that that stuck out was Leslie frazier..but i still wonder how his def would look with out the williams wall and J.Allen.

Similar stories can be told about Marv Levy, Dick Vermeil, and others. Still, it's a risk. I'd rather have a guy on his first head coaching job.

I'm leaning less toward Frazier than I did before, in part because his defense is so talented, but also because his first stint as a DC (Bengals under Marvin Lewis some years back) didn't go as well.

PFT says the Bills are contacting Cowher. Apparently they'd be willing to pay him 10 million per season.

Maybe they figure having a coach named Bill will solve their issues.

Saw that, looking more and more like Fox will be at the helm next year.

10 milliion is crazy money. Although we'll pay a defensive end 16.7 million so who knows.

this would be a waste of time.

He wouldnt be a long term answer and we would be looking for his replacement in about 4 years.

Thats a lot of change in a little time. That much change is never good in the NFL.

His contract runs out the end of this year. He will be a FA unless we resign him. So..... That really dose not apply to our situation.
