    Russ Brandon named Chief Operating Officer

    I am actually not that pissed. COO fits his skill set. I suspect its Jauron and Modrak calling the shots now with pretty much everyone else keeping thier rolls.

    Re: Russ Brandon named Chief Operating Officer

    Promoting form within from a team and FO that hasnt made the playoffs in 8 yrs is not the answer, argue all u want, but we will be going for more years of mediocracy, and being satisfied with it. sorry this is a sad move, and i think the wrong one

        Great. Now the Bills have a guy in charge that is more concerned with profit then wins. :thumbsdown:

            statement from Ralph Wilson from WGR55

            “It has been my experience over the years that our greatest opportunity for success comes when we promote from within our own organization,” Wilson said in a press release. “So, I have decided that the responsibilities of the general manager’s position will be handled from within and we will not to go outside the organization.”

              At least we can get started looking for a OC. But, if this move is foreshadowing, I'm thinking it won't be a long seach. No new applications needed.

                I am normally very optimistic, but this stinks, especially the quote from wilson on GR.

                  It's official.

                  Ralph has gone senile.

                    Is it wrong to say you look forward to someones death?

                    Once again Ralph goes on the cheap and we get the shaft. I am really starting to wain as a fan.

                      You people are so silly. If we had gotten a new GM they would have changed everything. Schematically we would have been altered and everthing that Marv built would have been for nothing. The last two drafts have been superb. I trust Guy and Modrok handeling the personnel decisions. We are one good draft and couple of free agents from the playoffs. Thank God none of you idiots are running the Bills' organization. The offensive scheme only has to be slightly altered. Our formations and playcalling made us too predictable. Hopefully Turk can add some elements to the offense and scheme around our players' strenghs.

                            It is tough to be a fan of this organization that is so poorly run. It is hands down one of the worst organizations in the league.
