"Tom Donahoe, Bills general manager
Gregg Williams, Bills head coach
When a team tries to change the style of its play after having so much success on offense, it might be asking for trouble. The Bills want to become a ground-control, defensive-oriented team. That's a far cry from the wide-open, pass-happy system from a year ago. The Bills were in the playoff hunt late in the season with that style but didn't accomplish enough to let the team keep playing that way. So they put much of their offseason focus on improving the defense, while letting the top speed receiver (Peerless Price), starting fullback (Larry Centers) and starting tight end (Jay Riemersma) leave. Then they drafted a running back in the first round in Willis McGahee, who won't help them this year, barring a miracle, as he battles back from major knee surgery. Donahoe is a sharp talent evaluator, but his Pittsburgh roots that say run the ball and control the clock might have gotten the best of him when he decided to revamp this team. As for Williams, he has one year left on his contract, and the team has not given him an extension. That's not a good thing. "
How the hell can they make this offseason sound so bad. :madshake: This is why I hate to read.
