Todd Bowles Bio: Who Is Todd Bowles?

PrintWith rumblings that Todd Bowles will meet with Reggie McKenzie, I figure it is a good time to take an actual look at who Todd Bowles is.
Todd Bowles, 48, is a native of New Jersey who played College football at Temple University. He was passed up in the draft and was signed as an undrafted rookie free agent by the Washington Redskins where he started two games as a rookie and was a starter on the Redskins Super Bowl XXII Championship team.
After eight seasons in the NFL (7 with Skins and 1 with SF), he retired in 1993.
After his playing career was done, he joined the player personnel department of the Green Bay Packers from 1995-96 before becoming the defensive coordinator/DB Coach at Morehouse College. From there he coached under Eddie Robinson at Grambling from 1998-99.
In 2000 Todd became the Jets Defensive Backs Coach,. He has also had a stint in Cleveland before he began working with Bill Parcells and the Cowboys. Eventually Bowles headed to Miami and this season he was promoted to Head Coach for three games, tallying a 2-1 record and nearly going 3-0 after putting a scare into the Patriots in week 16. The Dolphins also knocked the Jets out of the playoffs without Reggie Bush in Week 17.
He played under Gibbs and was mentored by Eddie Robinson and Bill Parcells. His stay in Green Bay may have been his most important as he worked with a man who may become his new boss, Reggie McKenzie.

Not the greatest of credentials to warrant an HC job
Then again, Moss doesn’t seem to have the credentials either.
Regardless, the team has an off field leader in McKenzie and we need a strong on field leader and motivator. I’m not a huge fan of going after another rookie HC but both Bowles and Moss seem to be destined to have this kind of position eventually. I’d just like to see them as coordinators before they take that next step. I’m happy that McKenzie is doing his homework at the very least.
You know what would make a good story? Something about a clown who makes people happy, but inside he's real sad. Also, he has severe diarrhea.
Bowles has 3 games HC Experience:
Going 2-1 and almost beating New England.
I realize that it was still Sporano’s team, but, with his pedigree and some experience, he is a better choice than Moss. IMO

3 games is a small sample size but it was sucessful no doubt
Without intimate knowledge of either Bowles or Moss and what kind of coaches they are it’s difficult to get much of a read. It’s much easier for us fans to speculate how a coordinator or former HC might fit with this team than with assistants on other teams. All we have to go on is what the media reports from “inside sources” on these guys and they both sound like solid candidates and leaders but do not have the Xs and Os knowledge so bringing in the right coordinators will be extremely important.
If Bowles can bring Nolan over with him then that would be a nice package.

As an unknown would he inspire fans and fill the seats? This last year is the FIRST time all eight games have been sold out.
Winning fills the seats more than anything

This Year
I generally agree, but the Raiders had a losing record at home this year and were sold out. There seemed to be a feeling that the Raiders were going to turn it around. Will this feeling continue with an unknown/unproven coach?

Mallard
If the Raiders come back with carson, a healthy mcfadden, all the receivers, some defensive upgrades and competent coordinators… Yes, I believe the seats will sell. No matter who the coach is.
I don’t know where you sit, but MANY fans in the stadium believed that hue was a huge problem by the end of the year. His loss isn’t going to drive people away.
I ll be there no matter what, but I am gullible and enjoy drinking to excess in an excusable forum.

Bill Cowher Was Very Consistant Despite The Steelers Cheapness In Resigning Their Players Ther The 90's -n- Early Turn Of The Century..
Bill is above all else a great motivator who DEMANDs performance and is intolerant of lapses…He’s an in your face type who holds everyone accountable to very high standard in the game and out of it…He’s the expression that tells you all you need to know!!!
"Tebowphobe"!!!
That would be one of Grudens
major selling points, he also runs the same offense as they do in Green bay, has head coaching experience, he would love to be able to pick his own coaching staff and he could finish the job in Oakland that he never got the chance to.
If he got the chance (and wanted the chance) to interview he’d probably blow McKenzie away.
"Now I know what your thinking, did he fire six shots or only five. Ive forgotten myself in all this excitement, but being that this is the 44 magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world and could blow your head clean off, you have to ask your question. Do I feel lucky? Well do ya punk!"
Dirty Harry Callahan
LoL!!!...What Up With All The Rewriting Of The Historical Records???
Gruden forced Al’s hand into letting him go…There wasn’t any “finish the job in Oakland that he never got the chance to”…He was offered a new contract which sat on Al’s desk for a month while Gruden was refused to pick it up!!!
"Tebowphobe"!!!
That's because he was tired of fighting Al for everything
and not being able to pick his own staff.
He wanted more authority…Al never gave anyone authority…so Gruden forced his way out.
If Al had given him the opportunity Reggie is offering now he’d still be our coach.
So his unfinished business in Oakland is getting to run his team, his way with his guys.
Just like all the other real head coaches out there that are worth having.

Dirty Harry Callahan
Bowls will not be the HC.......
He and the next few guys they bring in are just to give the impression they are realy interviweing.the most likely scenario is that Moss has already been told by GM Mc that he has the job,they just have to wait till after GB seassion ends.it would be to obvious if the Raiders just sat there and did nothing till then.
"The time is now"
Hue Jackson
I Will be Content With Moss Or Another "D" Backgrong Coach Who Motivate His Players IF!!!
We maintain our present “O” by keeping Al Saunders as “OC”…
This would make for a very smooth transition and I dearly hope this is what Reggie had in mind when he fired Hue…
There would be no change in terminology and our roster would continue to fit the general run 1st game plans…We would not lose a step but instead be better prepared with more time in the system and maturing players who are no longer rookies…The connections between “QB” and his "WR"s/"TE"s/"RB"s would only get better instead of starting over…There would be apparent signs of any loss regarding not having Hue because that top 10 “O” would not be taking a step backwards…It would be advancing…
On top of that the new “HC” would NOT be calling his own plays and be free to deal with his other responsibilities…
Than the new “DC” would institute whatever new schemes are necessary to Carry out the transition of the “D”…
"Tebowphobe"!!!
Everybody keeps saying that Reggie should keep Saunsers
when Reggie himself said he’d hire the new HC and that the new HC would hire his own staff.
No longer are Raider head coaches going to be saddled with someone elses choices for the other coaching positions
"Now I know what your thinking, did he fire six shots or only five. Ive forgotten myself in all this excitement, but being that this is the 44 magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world and could blow your head clean off, you have to ask your question. Do I feel lucky? Well do ya punk!"
Dirty Harry Callahan
I Understand What Was Said!!...But If Reggie Brings In A "D" Mined "HC" That's NOT Already Set In Some Form Of "O" Than This Is A Posibility???
If he brings in an “O” minded “HC” than most likely Al Saunders is gone unless he fits what that new “HC” wants to do…This means that all the terminology and everything else is scrapped and an entirely new system in implemented which takes time and generally stagnates growth…
"Tebowphobe"!!!
Al Saunders is a living legend...
Whoever they bring in as HC, he’s gotta realize the importance of keeping Saunders in his staff…who would be an upgrade over Al? Especially if the HC comes from a D background…he would have no choice but to leave that position alone…
Notice I Din't Post "This Is What Will Happen"....I Posted "I Will be Content With!!!
"Tebowphobe"!!!
True enough,
but it is also true that it won’t be Reggie’s decision to make. It will fall to whoever he hires as HC.

Dirty Harry Callahan
Thats true
But whoever comes in would be silly not to give saunders a look…given his involvement with the current players and his pedigree
by lchristmas on Jan 12, 2012 10:38 AM PST via mobile up reply actions
Yep,
but if that guy (whoever he is) wants to run another kind of offense or feels as Reggie did that he wants to start anew, Saunders will be gone.
Not that I want him to be gone, I don’t.
I’m all for continuity, hell I didn’t want Hue fired in the name of continuity, but it sure looks like they’re gonna blow the whole thing up and start from scratch.

Dirty Harry Callahan
My thoughts exactly....
Moss HC – not exactly thrilled but hey what the hell lol
Saunders OC – keeps the same system in place…dont mess with the O its one of our strenghts..
Spags DC – I’m salivating at this one lol
Madden
I believe that Reggie is trying to find the next Madden. This Gruden/Cower talk is just wasted keystrokes.
Exactly my thought
Linebacker Coach to HC-and he made history.

What's the focus?
Young up and coming or older established? Romeo Crennel got the job with a 2-1 record but I doubt that an older coach is what we’re looking for. If the focus is with an up and coming coach, on paper, he looks pretty damn good. Coached under the very best coaches and record college wins holder, displayed an ability to win in a demoralized environment, played for 8 seasons as an undrafted player, not just coming straight out college, and has a previous connection with McKenzie. He looks as good as any other rookie HC. Moss played for the Raiders which is great but Bowles looks interesting. What about Saunders as OC and Moss as DC, and the HC coming from D side. We simply can’t win with the existing D.
"GB" Might Say Moss As "DC" Is A Lateral Move And Block It??....He's Now Assistant "HC"/"LB"s...
So to get Moss it might have to be as “HC” rather than anything else…
"Tebowphobe"!!!
That Unit Was Pretty Good And I Really Liked The Trickery....Hue's But The "STC" Prolley Drew It Up??
"Tebowphobe"!!!
by PantyRaider on Jan 12, 2012 10:42 AM PST up reply actions
Yeah all that trickery was nice but I believe we need better blocking to get our return man
to the endzone or at least have some decent field position, a lot of our drives started at the 20 (touchbacks) or inside the 20…Tyvon Branch needs to return more kicks he’s awesome…
Well, Ford was an incrfedible return man
Losing him didn’t help. Although Taiwan Jones and Moore kinda got into a groove later on.
Caps lock is not cruise control for cool.
by ROFLCOPTER16 on Jan 12, 2012 11:18 AM PST up reply actions
Can't wait for the game to slow down for Taiwan Jones....he'll be special...
Yeah i agree losing Ford really hurt our return game….it’s amazing what our O could do with all those drives starting at the 20 or inside the 20….having the strongest leg in the business in Seabass doesnt hurt either….Just get to the 40, we don’t turn the ball over we’re guaranteed at least 3 points…what a weapon he is…
Losing Seabass for a couple of games hurt us too....fucking injuries...
Thats another advantage of having Reggie on board, we’ll have depth and i mean quality depth, remember Green Bays SB run last year they had like 20 guys on IR or something and didn’t miss a beat….
Yes, we do.
We got killed on a lot of kick returns this year. And our blocking on our returns wasn’t good. Ford and McCann had to rely on their own pure speed.

Letting Hagan go for Housh was a bone head move that screwed the ST too
Hagan was our gunner and a good one too.

We do need a gunner. I just find it amusing that Housh is essentially nonexistent, as DHB fills the role he’d normally take.

As I said in the other thread
I’m willing to give just about anybody a fair shot. I’d probably prefer Moss, but this guy sounds like a solid dude.
I have to disagree, Vontae Davis and Yeremiah Bell are pretty solid players...
Besides I think that award belongs to us lol
Davis, Smith, and Bell are all solid players.

he is too soft spoken
he seems like a nice guy and someone you would want to speak sports with but he is not a motivator. every time i see him on nfl live i want to tell him to man up
Im still on the Herm Edwards bandwagon.
HC- Herm
DC- Moss
OC- Saunders
he is an excellent motivator
he does motivational speaking at all different levels and gets his guys amped. With the right OC and DC he could be an excellent coach
Can't say Edwards was that impressive as a HC
A .422 career winning percentage is pretty poor. He was okayish with the Jets, but the Chiefs were terrible when he was their coach.
Mangini sucks.

pft loves to start shit dont they?
There be an article in which they talk about the possibility of palmer quittin on the raiders as he did in cincy. I don’t see that happenin. He is stayin and another qb should be here to light a fire under his ass. Don’t know who that’ll be though but palmer should stay the starter. PFT loves to hate and instigate. If palmer does go that route then I don’t know. It’ll show what kinda person he is doin it twice. I believe that won’t be the case though.

With the Panthers and the Texans. Career winning percentage of .375 in 8 seasons. Only 1 winning season.
damn

2 expansions teams
with no talent between them.
"In football, I root for the Oakland Raiders because they hire castoffs, outlaws, malcontents, and f*** -ups, they have lots of penalties, fights, and paybacks, and because Al Davis told the rest of the pig NFL owners to go get f***ed. Someday, the Raiders will be strong again, and they will dip the ball in s*** and shove it down the throats of the wholesome, white, heartland teams that pray together and don't deliver late hits." - George Carlin.
Honestly, though.
Why in hell would Palmer leave? As apathetic as the Raiders can be at times, a playoff contending team is a far cry from the 4-12 shithole Palmer was in. His receivers are young and eager to learn, not locker room cancers.

We'll see
Pack barely beat the Giants last time, and now Philbin will not be there for them, so who knows?
But jennings be back. The giants are really good when healthy but still inconsistent at times on both sides of the ball. Jpp is a beast and will surely wreak havoc but arod can move. Well if they do lose that means the raiders get their man or men faster. S’all gooood

But saints offense seems unstoppable. Let’s see what the niners do. They in my opinion have the top d. Steelers are fakes.

I think the Giants can match the Saints score by score...
And with their running game clicking they could leave Brees on the sideline for a long time…
saints have a purrty good run game goin
Eli is playin at an elite level but drew is a class above. Both teams I can see winnin

I'm waiting to see the Niners play a really explosive offense
Only time they did was against Detroit, and that was a close one. And Brees is playing in a whole other stratosphere right now. It’ll be a game worth watching, either way.
hopefully
I said that about them vs the steelers. We all know how that turned out…

I hate both the Donkeys and Stealers...
But I hated the refs even more in that game, they repeatedly tried to cheat the Broncos….
WTF was the deal with that lateral pass? incomplete my ass…
Yeah
They got burned on that. Then again the Broncos apparently didn’t have 7 men on the line of scrimmage for the bomb.
Fucking refs.
You know the Raiders would always get flagged for that.

Anything can happen
But the Steelers were beat up. I didn’t think they’d blow the Broncos away. I thought it would be close but that they’d probably win in the end. NE offense is much better than the Steelers.
I'm already planning a Satanic ritual for tomorrow.
If Tebow wins it won’t be because I didn’t try to stop it.

Bleh.
Though I am less confident about a Pack victory than I was a couple weeks ago. I didn’t like them resting Rodgers in week 17. Thought they should have played him for a half. Just so he can stay in the groove. Add into that the Giants playing really well and the Pack’s OC going through his big family tragedy and it could be a tough one.
One call should be made before a hire is made
Nick Saban should be called. I would find our what went wrong with the Dolphins & what his plan would be to fix these Raiders. I remember that Belichick had him as his D coordinator. Belichick also was fired from the Browns before he find the right situation. He can turn this D into beasts & with this running game this division will be dominated with silver & black.
Even if another hire is made, the call should be made just to kick the tires.
I think he's happy with his current gig
and why wouldn’t he be?
