The real sad thing if they purge the staff...

[Ebenezer]

is that they have so many holes it will take them at least two years to make the playoffs...yes, that might be better than if they stick with Limp Dicky & Co. but it is going to be painful. The fans are going to suffer for at least two more years....and with the guillotine of them moving over our heads...almost like it is being scripted...

No, I don't think this team is that far off from being a playoff team. Get a guy who knows what he is doing in here and it will fall into place.

Re: The real sad thing if they purge the staff...

The right coach could get this team to the playoffs next year. Look at Atlanta right now. S.Peyton (with Brees) turned NO around in his first season (NFC title game). Even Miami is alive in the playoff race right now after going 1-15 last year. The right coach could turn this thing around quick. The sad thing is, even if there is a coaching change, it probably won't be the right one.

The right coach would mean that wilson would have to let go of some of his cash and guys he just ain't willing to do that. He wants to save as much money as he can for his family. He doesn't care about us, this team or winning he only cares about money. If you think different then here is the list of lame duck coaches since the levy era.

W.Phillips
G Williams
M. Mularky
D. jaruon

No top tier coach no top tier staff nothing. Ralph wants too keep hiring dime coaches so he can save his money for his family. Get used to him hiring these lame duck coaches till he dies then when the Bills leave Buffalo i will be done with the NFL. Thanks for ruining a good thing Ralph Wilson you truely are a class act.

Atlanta
Miami
New Orleans

all examples of new HC's succeeding but its not just the HC which made them successful there. They all got new GM's (not top tier guys either). It starts with the top.

We had this exact discussion in the stands yesterday but it's too late to save Jauron. The fans will leave in droves, if he's retained.

It is what it is. If the Bills move and someone in the organization suggests the biggest reason is lack of fan support, we have every right to fire on the moving vans. Our blind loyalty has been 2nd to none.

This is why I was so pissed when we hired Jauron. He was a bad choice from the beginning and we're all too familiar with the cycle: Struggle, fire the coach, two years of rebuilding, repeat.

Selecting Jauron set this team back 5 years.

I actually don't believe this. I think Jauron was a good pick at the time and maybe still is. The team had no talent and was in the middle of a massive rebuilding.

Jauron was a good first step but it's obvious that the team needs a creative thinker out there now.

Although some would argue, we do have a QB, RB, OL and a decent DT rotation. However we still need some WR talent, DEs and some real depth at LB.

The next coach needs to take us to the next step while working with the talent that will be coming in.

had? this team still has no talent on a whole.

Dick's done a good job getting a squad of garbage to around .500.

Problem is if we did have talent, he wouldn't take us to the next level. His tenure in Chicago proved that.

The game management on Sunday's has been terrible for the entire season, and yesterday was no exception. The playcalling was horrible, the use of time outs was embarrassing, and the team in general was not ready to play. What a joke!

I'm actually kind of glad I have to watch this team from the comfort of home. I can at least turn on other games, and watch how professional football is played.

Re: The real sad thing if they purge the staff...

in all the wins and losses, the bills have been in the game with the exception of the cardinals game.

i think the talent is there. i think we need a coach who brings discipline to remove the stupid penalties and improves execution.

a coach who wants plays where we can telegraph to the other team, "It's 3rd and 1, and we're running the ball up the middle, and we're going to get it. We know it, you know it, and the fans and telecast knows it." I hate all these overthought plays like passing when your QB is hurt, throwing when your back up is in on 4th down, game on the line, rain, and the running game is working.
