It is not easy being an Alabama football Offensive Coordinator. Fans expect a national championship every season. Nick Saban is a defense-first, mostly old-school coach. Among Saban’s Crimson Tide OC’s, only Jim McElwain really flourished.
Two current New England Patriots coordinators are expected to get NFL head coaching positions. The Colts have Patriots, Offensive Coordinator Josh McDaniels as a top candidate. Same with Detriot and Patriots Defensive Coordinator, Matt Patricia. Recent speculation had Daboll becoming OC for either McDaniels or Patricia.
Buffalo Bills hire Brian Daboll
Going to the Buffalo Bills is a homecoming of sorts for Canadian-born Daboll.
