I'm not saying that Eberflus is a good get or that I even want him. But under Eberflus, they have been a top 10 defense. They were 2nd in the league this year in takeaways. That same Colts defense absolutely dismantled Daboll and the Bills. To discredit all the work he's done because he had a bad week 18 is a little farfetched. And if you take that same logic (one bad game changes your view) then it should be applied to Daboll when the Bills put up 6 points against a team that gave up 27 a game.

Again. Not saying I want Eberflus but let's look at the bigger picture here instead of being a prisoner of the moment. I would choose Daboll over Eberflus if I had to make the choice between the two but that has more to do with him developing Allen than maybe how he would be as a HC.

16th in yards given up.  Turnovers don't matter like yards given up, remember?  We just had this conversation, about Winston, now it's a big deal and more important, lmao.  You keep bringing up week 18, where did I say I don't want him because of week 18?  I said he wouldn't be good hire before Trevor had a career day against his defense.  Dabolls offense just went 7 drives, 7 scores against BB defense

Dude you're arguing in circles.

Eberflus was hired by Josh McDaniel, and when Reich met him, he immediately kept him.  He's said to be another strong leader and his players love him.  

I think something a LOT of people are forgetting is that being a HC is not the same as being a coordinator.  He'll be involved, but the defense won't live or die based on him.
