All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
I'd like Frazier if he brought Pat Williams, Winfield, Allen, Edwards and Greenway with him. Hopefully the Bills can draft players of that quality and give Gailey something to work with.
I'm ok with Chan (what other choice do we have?) but I would like to see him bring in a top defensive staff. Chan will have his hands full with the OC duties and will not be able to pay a lot of attention to the defense.
I'm not thrilled with the Chan pick, but frankly....you can only get to work for you those that WANT to work for you...Cowher, Harbaugh and some others considered A-list simply were not going to come to Buff, it's that simple. Now the question becomes....who does Chan bring in as coordinators? Should be interesting to watch
Gailey was a bland pick but may actually be able to attract some quality asst. coaches. Time will tell.
I had little to no hope for young Schott, Frazier, Grimm, Rivera and others to be a 1st time head coach and find good asst.'s. Despite all the feel good stories, this locker room wouldn't buy into them as HC's in training.
Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit
After Marty and Bill were out of the running I really didn't have any strong opinions at all about who would coach.
Gailey has HC experience, which I will definitley give him a few points over any 1st time HC. Being capable of organizing an entire football team on the field is not as easy as many think. SO Gailey definitely deserves those bonus points
For me it comes down to what Nix does with players. I expect a massive investment this offseason. If players refuse to come here and play for Ralph, Russ, Nix and Chan, then it's pretty safe to say we're simply waiting for that fateful day when Ralph no longer is involved.
Problem is there won't be many FA's available and those that are, are sure to go to a pasture that actually has some green in it.
So now were left with a single draft to make this huge change over to a solid playoff contending team...
So either Chan Gailey is about to prove to the world that he was the most underrated coach in the histroy of the sport, or we fans are still 2-4 seasons away from this franchisne fielding a team that doesn't look as inept as it has the last 10
