Deciphering Coach-speak 101 at OBD


Bills head coach Chan Gailey helped introduce and reintroduce some coaches into Buffalo football on Thursday at One Bills Drive. Nick Mendola was there to delve through the discussions between the media and offensive coordinator Curtis Modkins, defensive coordinator George Edwards and special teams coach Bruce DeHaven.

Bills DC candidate now jobless


(WGR 550) -- When the Chiefs took the defensive coordinator title away from Clancy Pendergast and handed it to Romeo Crennel, it seemed that Pendergast's days in Kansas City were numbered.

On Thursday, right after John Clayton told Mike Schopp and The Bulldog that Pendergast could head to Buffalo to be the Bills defensive coordinator, that number sunk to zero.

1) They are going to a 3-4.

2) There's a good chance they'll take Derrick Morgan with the No. 9 over all pick if he's available.

BUSCAGLIA: Who Is Chan Gailey?


After rising from the depths of relative anonymity, it seems as though Chan Gailey has emerged as one of the top candidates for the Buffalo Bills head coaching job. Even though there's only two candidates to my knowledge, it still raises certain questions.

Most know that Chan Gailey is an offensive based coach, and has been for quite some time. But would he be the right hire for the Bills?

A Change of Pace


(WGR 550) -- What a difference a coach makes.

Whether or not, it's the same-old, same-old come Sunday in Jacksonville, Perry Fewell's practices are anything but similar to Dick Jauron's preparation sessions.
