Dick Jauron is the new LEADING CANDIDATE for the Bills job...

[Michael82]

Buffalo: League sources say Fassel's interview with the Bills general manager Tom Donahoe on Tuesday did not vault him into the favorite's role in Buffalo, even though Fassel reportedly was asked to stay and continue his interview Wednesday morning.

There are some indications that former Bears head coach Dick Jauron has emerged as the Bills' leading candidate. Donahoe was said to be very impressed with Jauron, who met with the Bills on Monday. Donahoe has made it known he would like to hire an experienced NFL head coach, if possible, because he's wary of going the opposite route, as he did three years ago when he gave Gregg Williams his first head coaching job.

Donahoe also is scheduled to interview Pittsburgh offensive coordinator Mike Mularkey on Wednesday morning, although it's unclear whether that meeting will be impacted by Fassel's decision to stay over.

I do not want Jauron!

I believe Jauron would be a good choice. He's gotten the shaft in Chicago

[Michael82]

I don't know why, but I'm beginning to wonder if TD fell for Weis and really wants to wait for him, no matter how long it takes. The Super Bowl is February 1st. If the Pats went to the Super bowl, our staff would be TERRIBLE! No one would be left.

I say, sign Fassel TODAY or maybe Jauron. We need someone with experience.

Jouron is Fassel lite...and we don't even know what DJ has because of the situation in Chicago.

I'm starting to like Dick!

A few years back, he went 13-3 in Chi-town and never had talent!

I hope TD is not hiring by notebook detail/organization again. DJ, based on the ONE criterion that should count - his record as a head coach - is a bigger loser than Fassel.

[Novacane]

Oh Please no! His biggest fault in Chicago was hiring staff and refusing to take play calling away from his stupid OC schoop!

Can you say Dejavue all over again!

If you think Gilbride drove us nuts, wait until you get a look at a Jauron offense.

He is the worst choice of all the candidates mentioned to date. In that playoff year in Chicago, they were one of the luckiest teams I have ever seen, literally stealing games from the 49ers and Browns, among others. It took him half a season to figure out that Urhlacher was a MLB, not a OLB.

But...... he does come from the Holmgren / Walsh blood line of coaches. He did spend a year in Buffalo UNDER HANK BULLOUGH! And Jim Miller was the best QB he had in Chicago

He is a classy guy with a great sideline demeanor. Gives the most boring press conferences ever (very stone faced and holds cards close to the vest).

Dick gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling on my insides.
