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!

How would you behave? Would you be cordial, or would you voice criticism? Talk $#!t?
Ask him about bills players still on the team? What would you say to him, if anything at all...
I would be polite and try to wrangle a conversation in a direction where I could voice my critical opinion without being too much of an *******. The odds of me being able to pull that off are probably less than 1 in 10.

probably shake his hand and thank him for trying. Might ask him a bit about his experiences coaching.
Really, I don't have any hatred for the past coached who coached here. Rex was a blowhard but I'd still treat him to a bear and some wings. Would I want to sit down with most of the bills ex-coaches? no, probably not, but I don't think any deserve to be reviled and hated (even Dick Jauron, as much of a bland boring pill that guy was). The closest to human trash we've had coaching this team was probably Gregg Williams. Something about that guy always felt off. But there is no reason to spit on the guy publically just because he's a horrible human being. Just don't talk to him.
My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.
I'd tell him thanks for ruining a good defense. If he lobbied for McCoy, I'd thank him for that... And say that I would have to blame the front office for hiring him. We had Jim Schwartz.
I'd thank him for at least appearing to take in interest in the Buffalo community, and then I would ask him if he was familiar with the old adage of if it ain't broke don't fix it. Yeah, I would want to know why he didn't do more to keep Schwartz or what exactly happened there. Lastly, when it comes to the players McD released were they guys you wanted or were they thrust upon you by Whaley?
I only have contempt for Marrone, not Rex. Rex was bad, but Marrone's little stunt set us back by years.
I don't care for Marrone either... but he brought us a defense that improved drastically both years under his watch...and he didn't get rid of Fred Jackson. Taylor to me is the same as Orton... both mediocre to sometimes decent qbs... Ryan wanted to fit square pegs into round holes... And brought his legally ******ed brother on board. That told me he wasn't here to win, just be a bag of hot air and cash in.

???
He inked a contract with an out, with a team notorious for quick coaching turnover, screwing this or that one along the way. He led them to a winning season - how rare is that?
Folks on this site were creaming their jeans about how the guy turned Syracuse around. Marrone correctly smelled the Bills organization and the fan base, and got his clause. Very smart of him.
What is it that he did to turn the franchise back years? I'm mystified.
