    Does this move make any sense?

    Too sell tickets, it makes perfect sense.


    Outside of that, how does this move get us going in the right direction?


    We finally get rid of TD only to bring in a 80 year old guy, whos been out of football for 8 years, and has no experience at the position.


    Im not buying this move.


    IMO, its just Ralph trying to win back the fans again.

    Have you read his book? The guy knows football, knows how to build a team, and how to keep a team together. He worked with the best GM in football (possibly in football history) in Bill Polian, and has Tom Modrak and staff to provide good scouting and cap management.

      It makes a lot more sense than the first post in this thread. That's a start.

        Are you the same poster who does the Cluck Dickerson immitation on TBD?
        How many head coaches have became Head Coach/GM? A lot. Did they all have any experience? No. Football is football on both sides of business.

              I agree and have felt this way since the hiring. Its is as simple as this.........MARV knows football. Deal with it non believers.

                Maybe, maybe if Marv went and lived on an island since leaving the Bills, I MIGHT believe he is out of touch. But he's been covering games, writing columns for the NFL since, etc. Forget losing, try GETTING to four Super Bowls – in a row. He's widely respected by COACHES in the league like Parcells, Ditka, etc. That's good enough for me.

                I just about walk three miles a month, let alone RUN 3 a day. Even if he has old-timerz, he's forgotten more about football than EVERY poster on this board knows.

                Hey, the Marv-aid is pretty good!

                  I think he is missing one important fact, and that is Tom Modrak! He is the guy who put the Eagles NFC championship teams together.

                    What the **** do you care? You don't even qualify as a Bill's fan.

                      No Gm with any experience would have taken the job with Mularkey in place and Ralph knew it.Thats why the safe choice was Marv.This move doesn't do it .We are no further ahead.I'm not renewing my season tickets and I have six of them.

                        Dude, are you actually a FAN of this team?

                        Nothing makes you happy.

                          You have proved long ago that you know nothing about football. Please STFU and stay on TBD or BB.com and quit flooding this good board with your crap.

                            Am I even a Fan?


                            Of coruse I am.


                            I just don't buy into all the **** Ralph trys to pull at OBD.

                            A lot of you said it yourself a couple weeks ago, no more drinking the kool aide that OBD was putting out.

                            Well, I think a lot of you just got fooled again.

                            Marv could be a very good GM, but he could also be a very bad one.

                            Do you really believe Marv was the best choice? And is the answer to what ails this franchise?
