    WTF? Another Pittsburgh crony?

    What exactly is it that people here don't like about Donohoe bringing in his Pittsburgh cronies? Helllooooooo? The two guys here that are Pittsburgh cronies are the only two guys you people universally like!! Tom Modrak and Dick LeBeau. Gilbride was the only one of three that failed, the only one, and he was mostly fine for half his short tenure! Not to mention that GW hired Gilbride as a Houston crony and not TD as a Pitt crony. In fact, the two Pitt cronies were Lewis and Fox that TD DIDNT hire when he hired GW, who wasn't a crony.

    TD didnt bring in any serious players in three years that were Pittsburgh guys and the ones he did he didnt pay a thing for and/or cut. Is Bobby Shaw the only former Pittsburgh player we have on this team and wasnt he a pleasant surprise for no money? He brought in a couple others for minimum wage and then cut them (Farris, Huntley, etc). This total nonsense has just got to stop. Where are all these guys from Pittsburgh that you hate? Huh?

    thank you for spreading some rational thought.. i agree completely..

    people are ****ting the bed right now for no reason.. the guy is undefeated as the bills head coach, but he is already a failure.

          Yeah, but he is also winless as a bills coach.

            Yeah but he's tied for first in the division and even with the Pats and super-genius Bellichick.

              Why do we mind a few Pittsburgh guys, anyway, as long as they're qualified? I hate the Steelers, but I have to admit they've been far more successful than the Bills over the past 7-8 years.
              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?

                Does anybody think TD just gave this guy a job because he has a soft heart?? It's the NFL not McDonald's...TD is hiring for his career...GM/Presidents don't get to hire 3 failures.

                    Got any legitimate football reasons why he's a bad choice?
