Pretty much what has already been discussed on BBI.
| If Schoen ends up being hired, he can be tied to Brian Daboll, the Bills’ offensive coordinator, and Leslie Frazier, the Bills’ defensive coordinator. Daboll has never been a head coach, while Frazier went 21-33-1, with one playoff appearance, as head coach of the Vikings. Schoen and one of the Bills’ coordinators could be a pairing. |
| Hortiz had a first-hand look the past few years at Don “Wink’’ Martindale, the Ravens’ defensive coordinator, who would not be a particularly hard sell, considering the Giants conducted what was considered to be a strong interview with Martindale in 2019 before hiring Pat Shurmur as their head coach. |

People know their people. People trust their people. People bring their people.
And then if his offensive coordinator is successful were probably looking at a new offense in a couple years. That doesn't feel the same as changing defenses in the reverse scenario.
Joe Brady.
Keep in mind most of these guys had no input in the coaching staff hires at their current teams.
I realize all these coaches come with, who knows factor, but something about Daboll scares me a little as HC. Can’t put finger on it.
None of these guys are particularly inspiring, but I would say a Caldwell type. Professional, older, respected with a track record. Maybe the guy who just got fired from houston, he did a pretty good job. baltimore ties I believe.
I like Flores, but not sure a GM without ties to him would be interested

That makes zero sense. I want the GM to pick his coach- no restrictions, no preconceived notions or bias.

Culley will be 67 at the start of next season, no thanks.
Yep. Some of the leading contenders (guys like Schoen, Peters, Cowden have close to 20 years across multiple organizations).
Poles/Hortiz are guys who might stick to the home base familiarity, but again no guarantee there as you said.

I agree with you. I think it is his laid back nature and perhaps not as much of a leader.
Took the Vikings to the playoffs in his first full year as HC with them.
