    The chief decision-makers for the Buffalo Bills are en route to Arizona to interview at least three head coaching candidates. We say "at least" three, because a fourth may be on the agenda: University of Oregon head coach Chip Kelly.

    There have not been any ironclad reports that the Bills have set up any sort of one-on-one meeting with the hottest name on the college coaching circuit, but three separate tweets - one from Jason La Canfora, one from Howard Simon and one from Chris Brown - hint at the possibility of the Bills looking up Kelly and making their pitch while they're out west.

    Kelly, 49, is with his Ducks in Tempe, Arizona for Thursday's Fiesta Bowl - played at the home of the Arizona Cardinals - against Kansas State. The fourth-year head coach is among a handful of college-level coaches rumored to be interested in an NFL gig; Kelly was close to accepting the Tampa Bay job that eventually went to Greg Schiano last winter, but elected to return to Oregon.

    personally, i think chip will get eaten alive in the nfl and end up back in college after 2-3 years. but, we'll see.

    i think so. and if it weren't for the ncaa sniffing around his program so hard, i'm not sure chip would want to move to the nfl but he may have no choice now.
