    This Comment by Chan Scares Me a Little

    "Unless I know a guy or somebody on the staff is willing to stand on the table for him, I won't even talk to him," said Gailey, referring to prospective staff members.

    So what are saying Chan? If there is a person out there with an outstanding resume and good qualifications, unless he's your buddy you won't even consider them?? Are we stuck with another coach that has brought in all of his gumbas?

    He works for Ralph...unless Ralph knows somebody, he doesn't hire them. Seems about right to me.

      He just might be referring to a person who has made a name for themselves. I know it's a huuuuuge stretch.

          this would bother me if the guy was 35. It doesn't bother me with Chan. He's been around, he knows enough good coaches to pick amongst them, why go outside of what you know if you don't have to?

            Can you name any asst off his tree that you would consider to be a good coach right now?

            Head Coaches who produce good assistants, I dont worry about with this kind of comment, those that don't produce them, I do worry about....greatly.

              I don't wor for a pro personnel department

              The same maxim holds true for any job, I don't care what you do.

              I agree that good mentors are important for career development. They are not the be-all end all.

              And, if you need to pick resources to complete a task or project, you certainly start where you have familiarity.

                I think it's safe to say that this is the least of the worrys for this season. ONe sentence by chan maybe taken out of context is inconsequential when you look at the overall picture of the Bills at this point
                In my day we did not have self-esteem... we had self-respect, and no more of it then we earned.

                  I've been a Bills' fan for 50 plus years. Nothing could possibly scare me anymore.
                  Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

                    I don't think it was taken out of context. He said it and probably really means it. I'm not going to lose any sleep over it either because this team does have much bigger problems, but at the same time it does all start with good coaches and teachers and it can't be discounted. I just don't want to end up with a coach picking his staff just because they are his buds and he feels comfortable around him like Jauron and his Lions/Bears rejects. We all know how that one worked out.

                      actually Dick brought in guys who weren't his own like Fairchild, Turk, Kollar etc. These guys were not on the same page so they either left or got fired. In the mean time, guys like Fewell and AVP changed the team when Dick got fired.

                        "Unless I know a guy or somebody on the staff is willing to stand on the table for him, I won't even talk to him," said Gailey, referring to prospective staff members. "George and Joe were very tight. I really looked at who he had developed and who he had coached, talked to Joe and interviewed him."
                        "It looked like a great fit for where we are, trying to develop young quarterbacks or whoever it might be," Gailey said. "If it's a running guy, he's developed that guy. If it's a pocket guy, he's developed that guy. I think we were very fortunate it worked out."
                        In other words, don't blow smoke up my ass with a fancy resume unless you have some solid references.

                              I hope this holds true

                              "But I think he never loses sight of the fact he's dealing with a special individual and never allows him to be on the field without being well prepared."
                              unlike last year when Trent Trent said

                              "we didn't practice for that"
