Q: Do you concern yourself at all with the fan base and turning the culture around and getting the fans back behind you?

A: "In a way I do, but the only way you can do that is to quit telling them what you're going to do and do it. That's what we've got to do; we've got to win. To get them back — I say get them back, but I don't know if they ever left. It's still their team; it doesn't matter who the coach or the GM is. Those guys come and go, but the Bills belong to this fan base and you can gripe all you want about the way things are done, and criticize, but the bottom line is it's your team. They may quit buying tickets for a year or two, but in this part of the country, and the way these people feel about the Bills, I don't believe that will ever change."

I love the shut up and do it comment. For years this organization has had "yes" men at the top, telling the fans what they want to hear, but failing to do what they say.

Nix is a no BS kind of guy, and I believe that he's going to do his damnest to make this team a winner.

I thought that answer was one of the best, but he said a lot of stuff. I just like that he is going to do what he believes in and is not a yes man.

JUST WIN!!!!! NO other way to win the fans back. Bringing in big named players means squat if you don't win anyways.
