People have been pretty vocal about blaming the Bills if Cowher doesn't end up being the next coach here. Is there any actual evidence that the Bills haven't been doing everything possible to lure him here?

Re: Blame game when it's not Cowher...
I'm sure the BIlls have, but if this franchise is so unattractive it is for one reason... It's because the FO and Ralph are a major major problem and our on field problems have little chance of improving if the most respected minds in the game won't give us the time of day

I blame Ralph that we can't get a winner because of how he ran this franchise for the last 10 years. I know one thing, I wouldn't want Russ Brandon's job this season.Last edited by BoyILuvLoznStupidly; 01-10-2010, 12:35 PM.Comment

I'll blame Cowher for using the team as a tool to try to get the job he really wants.YardRat Wall of Fame

if we can't get this done then we didn't show him what he wanted. That's pretty pathetic all things considered.My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.

I don't blame the Bills. It's kind of obvious that Cowher is using the Bills to put pressure on Carolina.Originally posted by MikeInRochComment

I'm actually starting to wonder if we'll get a guy who wants to be here.
How sad is that?Comment

And I don't think it's money that he wants. It's the ability to spend money on FAs and assistant coaches. Yeah it is pretty ****ing pathetic!Originally posted by Ingtar33

Blame starts at the top.
Blame Ralph C. Wilson Jr. for....
1) running Bill Polian out of town. The architect of the 90's Buffalo Bills that won 4 consecutive AFC championships and the man most responsible for drafting 3 HOF players and counting. You speak about this man's credentials until you vomit, nuff said.
2) running John Butler out of town, and along with him, AJ Smith- observe what's going in San Diego.
3) refusing to lease out the name of the stadium thereby failing to realize millions of dollars in revenue, making the franchise more economically viable.
4) electing to hire former head coach Marv Levy as the VP of football operations and GM, a man with ZERO experience at the position and 80 years of age. This alone set the franchise back 3-4 years.
5) refusing to bring in a competant GM from OUTSIDE the organization to give the franchise a fresh prospective on how to run a professional football team.
6) essentially running this once proud football team into the proverbial ground by reducing it to a laughing stock. We are the only team in the NFL that plays 7 home games. We have failed to retain talented players (see Pat Williams, Jason Peters) and front office personnel choosing instead to overpay the marginally competant (see Denney, Dockery, Walker).
Just some things off the top of my head. This must be the most unattractive team other than Oakland at the moment. Where this was once a quaint locale similar to Green Bay or even Cleveland. Buffalo has now become the football equivalent of Siberia.Last edited by Zero; 01-10-2010, 01:21 PM.Comment

It isn't about strictly 'ponying up' as much as it is who you're 'ponying up' for.
Ralph has spent the money, the people he has trusted with responsibility just haven't helped him spend it wisely.YardRat Wall of Fame

Re: Blame game when it's not Cowher...
He cheaps out on coordinators big time.
In fact, other than stadium security, its probablythe one area where he's actually cost us a SB in the past.
Tom Bresnihan? Walt Corey? please.Comment
