Potential land mine

Watch the Marv Levy experiment in Buffalo. You want to give the Bills' Hall of Fame former head coach the benefit of the doubt in his new role as the team's general manager, but so far he has inspired mostly doubts. His hiring of ex-Bears head coach Dick Jauron after Mike Mularkey's surprise resignation didn't get the honeymoon off to the fastest of starts, and critics said Buffalo reached for both safety Donte Whitner and defensive tackle John McCargo in the first round. Spending money to bring receiver Peerless Price -- a failure in both Atlanta and Dallas -- back to town also seemed foolish to many. Levy needs some early success from the Bills to build support for his program and to buy the organization a little time.

That is the easy way out. What a realist the author of this article is.

Re: SI Banks on Bills

regardless of what he says in this article, I've yet to be impressed by Banks. He always seems to be master of the obvious. I've yet to read an article he's written with any new perspective.

That article didn't say anything we didn't already know. And SI paid him the big bucks for that? Come on.

While nothing new, the validity of the information is still accurate and clear to all but the homers.

If Donte picks off 10 balls this year will it be a stretch anymore? See the problem is saying what someone might do and what they do, do is 2 different things. People can go good or bad on you pretty quick, look at Fat Mike williams. He shows up @ 400 LBS and expects to have a job? Let's see how it plays out before the downtrodding begins.

Looks like a TOS violation to me.

A Jpeg is a tos?
Then you should be SHOT to death for openly hoping that Ralph Wilson would DIE so the Bills would be better off.

Does this clown have a personal view, or is he parroting others in a whimpy attempt to assert a point with immunity.

"and critics said Buffalo reached.."

"also seemed foolish to many."

These sportswriters suck.
