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!
They are talking on the radio about GW. They said since he will only have 1 year left on his contract TD either has to extend the contract or get rid of him.
Agree? Why can't he go into the final year as a prove it or loose it year?
I say it would be a HUGE mistake to change the coaching staff. Bills are 5-4 and had the first bad loss of the year. TD needs to give GW more talent on defense to work with before rash judgements are made. GW is bound to make mistakes and needs to learn from them.
Thats fine Clump. But should TD give him an extension? No way! He has not earned it. I don't understand why people say you can't let your coach go into a final year of his contract or it will show the players you don't have confidence in him.
2 years is more than enough time to decide....to get rid of him. The Bears let Jauron have 2 bad years, can an OC (Crowton now HC at BYU), then go into year 3 without an extension. The Bears made the playoffs in an incredibly lucky season. Jauron got his new contract, now they suck and he will probably get canned this off season (Nick Saban from LSU will get the job, you heard it here first). The Bears will be on the hook for 2-3 more years.
GW has had enough time. His time is up. I just hope Gilbride doesn't get promoted.
What's the logic of saying Buffalo either has to extend his contract or get rid of him? Why would it be unwise to let him work out the third year of his contract then decide? I don't get it.
I don't see anyone doing any learning. We are still seeing the same boneheaded gametime decisions and a failure to properly execute a running attack. That 4th down 15 yard punt was the final straw for me. I say send him down the road he's not going to take us anywhere when he is clearly screwing us with his gametime decisions and fitting the players into his system instead of developing a system for our players.
Rebecky:
I think the idea is the players lose confidence in the coach if they don't know he is going to be around more in the long term.

Radio guys were trying to make the point that the players would know he was a lame duck and not play for him.
I think GW is going to be a top-notch coach. He's got some things to fix but he's maturing rapidly and is already providing much more positive than negative.
I think they will easily give him next year to finish what they've started. I also think next years team will be a legitimate SB contender and there will even be some talk about GW as coach of the year.
