Losing Pat Williams was one of the big mistakes that Donahoe made during his tenure in Buffalo (IMHO) and it looks like Big Pat may hang them up:

[Defensive tackle Pat Williams said Monday he's "50-50" on whether he'll return for the final year of his contract. At 37, Williams is the second-oldest player on the team behind the 40-year-old Favre.

The three-time Pro Bowl pick said he feels fine physically, but is mentally "drained" after a devastating end to his 13th NFL season. The Vikings lost to the New Orleans Saints in overtime of the NFC championship game Sunday

Losing Pat Williams wasn't really a mistake Donahoe made, it was done out of necessity due to the poor salary cap position the team was in when he took the job. Donahoe didn't have much of a choice.

I saw Tom Donahoe last night and tried to interview him about the Bills.

As you'd expect, he declined to comment about anything.
