Is there a possibility that...

...maybe McNally sucks. I know he's had some pretty good success in the past, but maybe he's been tainted here or something. Coaches have been successful before, then ended up sucking. I hope this isn't the case, but I thought he was supposed to be able to work with the kind of guys the Bills have had.

There's always that possibility. I personally think he's just had crap players to deal with.

Sure its possible.

What's more likely is that the Bills only sign cast-offs from other teams that don't want the players to begin with: Villarial and Gandy (Chicago) Bennie Anderson (Baltimore) and of course wonderful draft picks like Bust Williams.

Marv Levy is showing signs of taking the word cast-offs to a whole new level.. Dont you worry bout that.

He may and I think this year or at most by the end of 2007 we'll find out.

I've pointed out in my other post that every Bills' O-lineman has less than 2 years with the Bills. Coincidence? McNally came 2 years ago!

We don't know the detail of inner works of how they bring a guy in, but you would think for an O-Lineman, McNally would have his say, a pretty big say on whether he thought he could work the guy. Now there is no one but McNally's guy, Let's see how it works out.

That was a joke about Marv, obviously......

That thought has crossed my mind too, but I just don't think thats the case. McNally's not some one hit wonder, he has had consistent success with each stop he's made in the NFL.. Not to mention how well respected he is around the league - I mean, you never hear anything but raves about him.

Honestly, I think its more of a testimony to just how BAD the ingredients were that he was working with - and I don't just mean the linemen, its also the poor coaching above him, TD, bad play calling, bad QB situation... it goes on and on.

Hopefully, if nothing else this year, MArv and co. can inject some stability into the team and personnel, which I think will go a long way toward righting the ship. Probably won't be this season, but I think we'll start to see it paying dividends in 2007.
