Re: Peter King's take on Chan Gailey
Like all, he has to win IN SPITE OF WILSON.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit -
Re: Peter King's take on Chan Gailey
That sums it up nicely right there.A couple of coaches who didn't want to become a candidate for the job made no bones about the obstacles: They worry about the hire of a 70-year-old GM everyone thought was on the back nine of his career, Buddy Nix. They worry about owner Ralph Wilson's meddling. They worry about where the franchise might be in two years. They worry about luring free-agents to Buffalo. In short, it's a tough sell to attractive candidates.

Re: Peter King's take on Chan Gailey
Right up Ralph's alley.Last point: I can guarantee you one of the things that the Bills loved was Gailey's attitude about how you can win without stars in the NFL. In fact, that's the kind of team he prefers. More than once in his career, he's told coaches he worked with: "You can win the World Series without Babe Ruth.'' In Buffalo, he's going to get that chance.
Get ready for some real boring, uninspired football.

Re: Peter King's take on Chan Gailey
The best thing about this hire has nothing to do with football, actually....
NONE of these dumb-ass talking heads had any clue it was coming, and neither did their sources. Now they are all resorted to either...
A-Admitting they are just as ****ing clueless as anybody.
B-Scrambling for excuses and making **** up to cover their asses.
C-Railing on the organization for the 'terrible' choice, and hoping like hell the Bills lose so they can salvage something and 'prove' how 'smart' they are.
**** 'em all and

Re: Peter King's take on Chan Gailey
There is another coach in our division that believes this same thing and as much as I hate them, they have done alright.Originally posted by HistorianComment

Re: Peter King's take on Chan Gailey
the talking heads have been right a lot longer than us die hards trying to spin things to make sense and in the end feel really upset that williams, mularkey and jauron didn't work out.
Gailey needs to win out the gate to have me give him any credit. i'm tired of pretending the bills know what they're doing when they have a 10 year record of not knowing what they are doing, promoting these know-nothings, and asking us to believe they'll find capable players at discount rates.
i don't think you need a team of superstars, but you need talent. the bills don't find talent, and they routinely pass on good players in their early picks. Then they get "teachers" instead of coaches that teach nothing.
Nothing ever changes. for a change of pace, i'm asking the team to prove to me first that this makes sense in the first 4 weeks of the season. if they aren't at the very least and entertaining team, i'll write off the 2010 season.Comment

Re: Peter King's take on Chan Gailey
Chan Gailey was a cheap pick who isn't going to challenge the owner.
Ralph what a great job running this team.Comment

Re: Peter King's take on Chan Gailey
I totally disagree with you here. Did you ever think that maybe the reason any of the professionals didn't have a clue this hire was coming was because the hire was so unbelievably out of left field that no one with any sanity would believe that the Bills would have gone this direction? And that's saying something, because the Bills were already a laughingstock. My reasoning is a lot closer to the truth than what you are trying to get at. It's not like the Bills made some unbelievably stealth, savvy hire. They went the cheap route by picking a guy off of the scrap heap whom everybody in the industry thought was a fringe choice to even be a coordinator in the NFL again, let alone a head coach. I seriously doubt that Bills Nation is getting the last laugh with this one.Originally posted by YardRatComment

'Sources' are called such for a reason.Originally posted by Mudflap1
If their 'sources' were valid, or had any credibility, this wouldn't have come 'out of left field'.
They obviously don't know any more than the average fan, and this process proved.

"Frazier is the man."
"Schotty wanted the job badly."

- 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!
