Miller says "be patient"

[BillsSabresB.C.T. Fan]

Miller did have an interesting request for the fans in Buffalo.
"We just ask the fans and everyone in the area to be patient for one more summer. I'm not going to make any outrageous claims but I want this to be a team that has a swagger; had a confidence. Don't get too high. Don't get too low. A team that is growing and maturing into what we should be with this much talent."

OK Ryan, we will wait another 10 years. Thanks for not getting our hopes up.

Re: Miller says "be patient"

Yeah Ryan, no playoffs in 5 out of 7 years...umm, sure you need time. This is the problem with this organization...always HOPING that they will become better instead of doing the things that need to be done to BECOME better. Honestly, I like Ryan, he's a good voice for the team and a good leader, but he needs to shut the f**k up and get a clue.

Easy for him to say...he has a nice long lucrative contract.

I'm so tired of the excuses out of this organization...just bring in a capable, more aggressive GM that will change the demeanor of this team. Bring in players who can lead and get rid of the dead weight. It really isn't a hard concept.

DR has lived through how many changes above him? When allowed to do his job he is a smart GM...the problem is that he is not autonomous...he is a good soldier...cut the budget, he does. build a winner, he does. let CD and DB go, he does. sign miller, he does. Quinn gives the orders. Until Quinn is gone you can bring in a parade of GMs...nothing will change.

Though I agree that Quinn is a douchebag, I think too many fans give Regier a get out of jail free card. IMO, the guy did nothing to build this team for those two years, he just got lucky because of the lockout and then it disappeared. His history is more mediocre then it has been good...the win/loss record shows that. Even during those two great runs, he wasn't smart enough to add the extra pieces during the season to win a championship. I just don't think Regier is a very good GM. He has to go for this team to finally start bringing in different types of players.

I disagree...if he is let go he will not be out of work long.

Different players? As long as Quinn is here and hiring the GM this team will not be constructed differently, sorry. Why would Quinn change his philosophy?

I really don't care if he finds work quickly...he isn't that good of a GM. You're completely taking any blame off his shoulders and that is very foolish.

No, he won't be out of a job long. But if keeps constructing soft teams with whatever he is "allowed" to do, then he won't win it all either.

Re: Miller says "be patient"

Yeah Eb. I'm sure Quinn is telling Darcy to get the wimpiest weakest players that he can.

"But Darcy built the team that went to two conference championships a few years ago!"
Teams that didn't have enough to win in the playoffs because it didn't have enough toughness. In the next two years, besides losing CD and DB, they lost most of the toughness as well.

I would rather have Muckler back. At least he knows what it takes.
