Capers To Interview With Bills
19th January, 2006 - 7:04 pm
ESPN - As team officials approach the completion of the interview process, Dom Capers, who has served as head coach for two expansion franchises, will meet with the Buffalo Bills on Friday about the club's vacancy, ESPN.com has learned.

Recently dismissed as the Houston Texans' head coach, Capers posted an 18-46 record in four seasons (2002-2005), including a league-worst 2-14 mark this year. He was 31-35 in four seasons (1995-98) with the Carolina Panthers. Capers was the first head coach in the history of both former expansion teams.

In only the second season of the franchise's existence, Capers led the Panthers to the NFC Championship Game in 1996. He was unable to register the same kind of results, though, in Houston, where the Texans never won more than seven games under his stewardship, and regressed badly in 2005.

Capers, 55, will be the third former NFL head coach to huddle with Bills officials about the opening created when Mike Mularkey abruptly resigned last week after only two seasons on the job. Earlier this week, the Bills met with former Chicago Bears coach Dick Jauron and onetime Green Bay Packers coach Mike Sherman. [READ]
