Re: "I'm glad we arent playing Detroit" -Thurman Thomas

yeah, I just heard that too.

He's 100% right. I love the fact he doesnt sugarcoat things and man did he BLAST JP for not throwing the ball away immediately once the receiver wasn't "wide, WIDE open"

* Thinks we should've kept Wade Phillips too.

and he thinks ralph will NOT get rid of Jauron, said Wilson will keep him. .It's "Mr Wilson's guy"

Safe to say that Thurmo isn't bucking for a job back in Buffalo.

interesting quote. i remember during the DJ hire that there was rumor that Ralph was interested in Sherman. He thought he was a good pick. Is sherman even in football these days? Who knows how that'd turn out. But i'm pretty sure he would not have the team 1-9.

Re: "I'm glad we arent playing Detroit" -Thurman Thomas

Im not sure about Sherman.
he joined the staff with the Houston Texans, but I THINK he recently got into the college game.

I could easily be wrong about this though, and dont care enough if I am to go looking anything up, lol.

Re: "I'm glad we arent playing Detroit" -Thurman Thomas

i've heard both on Sherman. That he was ralph's choice by Marv persuaded him to take DJ and That dj was ralph's pick.

I really hope ralph would hand the reigns over to someone smarter. This whole thing is so tiring. Win 10 games and get into the playoffs. We're not asking for a miracle. we're asking for some competency.

You could put anybody in there and they wouldn't be 1-9.
The coaching alone lost half of those games.

Yes, he coaches at Texas A&M University.

that's always been JP's problem though. He tries to turn every play into a highlight reel touchdown. He never caught on that sometimes the smart play is to throw the ball away, especially at the NFL level. I don't know if it's bad coaching or if he's just that stubborn/stupid, but I could see it going either way with the idiot staffs we've had during JP's tenure.

Not with JP Losman at quarterback..

Re: "I'm glad we arent playing Detroit" -Thurman Thomas

I don't see how Buffalo could beat Detroit at this point in the season.

As for Dick being Ralph's guy, I almost surely remember during the hiring process that Ralph wanted Sherman but Marv wanted DJ. I really wanted Sherman over DJ and I would still take that.
