    Re: Keep Gailey

    Anybody who really thinks that Gailey can turn this team into a good consistent winner are probably the same type of fans who thought that we should've kept Jauron around too.

    I'm so sick of seeing these posts and debating about this worthless pile of junk that we call a HC that's it not even worth anymore of my time.

    If this statement doesn't prove how incompetent Nix & Gailey are nothing else does. It's Nix's & Gailey's friggin jobs not to be outsmarted in the draft. The list you stated has 5 guys where other teams OUTSMARTED Nix & or Gailey. A good draft rule is that after the 1st round, if you feel a player, and this goes 10x for a QB, has starting potential & you are high on him, you don't get cute & try to project when he will be available because if you think he has potential & your name is Buddy Nix, either he has no potential or there are about a dozen or more GMs who think he has potential & at least one of them will make damn sure he drafts him before you.

    Well, Nix has had 3 drafts. I doubt he wanted to even draft a QB in the first 2 drafts unless one fell in his lap because there were so many holes to fill. I was really disappointed he did not draft a QB in this last draft. Like I said I will see how this next draft goes. If he drafts a GOOD QB, all is GOOD. If not, then I am on board with his going.

    Re: Keep Gailey

    Can't believe we still have defenders, let's lock this thread to prevent further embarrassment.

    This regime did worse than Levy/Jauron and a marketing guy pretending to be GM, the best draft we had was with a marketing man at the helm even though he took the biggest bust in team history, hell NFL history. Nix and Co havent improved the team beyond what they inherited, and probably made it worse in some ways (passing on QBs and relying on Fitz as the franchise QB).

    These are well paid individuals who failed miserably, they don't need your symypathy on top of it. If you ****ed up as much as they did your boss would toss you aside without hesitation. I'm sure they're good men, but they don't have any business running this team with the way they've handled things. Don't make excuses for a couple of old well off men that failed to deliver what they themselves promised.

    Nix has been telling us this team is better than people think since he got here, and yet all they managed is 15 wins in three years. Couple the bad coaching with terrible drafts, terrible personnel decisions, and you have the disaster that lays before us.

    To hell with them, they'll be fine.

    I would have rather kept Jauron than even hired Gailey in the first place.

    Re: Keep Gailey

    The last few weeks have sealed his fate. Good guy. Good coordinator. Not fit to be the HC of the Bills

    Same here.

    I have a great deal of respect for the things he's done as an OC.

    Maybe that's why I'm so disappointed he made such horrific gameday decisions in the first place.

    The guy just isn't cut from the right cloth to be a HC.

    The question begs to be asked though. Why oh why are we, every damn game, multiple times, having to either call a timeout or even run a QB sneak to beat the play clock? Why is there no sense of urgency to run the next play, especially when you're down a couple of scores? It's coaching, plain and simple.

    I totally agree with you about Fitz, the guy isn't a starter for a playoff team, but Gailey is part of the problem.

    Re: Keep Gailey

    The way Gailey has handled the QB situation is a total failure, he put everything on Fitz, who at best is a career journeyman. Gailey designed an offense for a accurate, consistent QB, two of Fitz's weaknesses. Yet Gailey had an out with turning the offense towards CJ Spiller and failed miserably to do that. The way Tarvaris Jackson was handled was a complete joke, to bring in an experienced QB and not even give him the chance to practice the offense is ridiculous. Gailey kept insisting that Jackson didn't know the offense, Jackson said he had the offense down by week 5, yet wasn't even allowed to take reps from back-up Tyler Thigpen. Just for kicks, the win loss record of the three QB's are, Jackson is 17-18 as a starter, Fitz is 22-41-1 and Thigpen is 1-11. As for not drafting a QB high in the last 3 drafts, how much influence did Gailey have in that ? If your coach keeps telling you that the current QB is the answer to the position, are you going to spend a high pick on a position that is already filled ? Nix is not void of having made mistakes during his tenure here, but I believe that Gailey and Fitz need to go before Nix, although I have no problem with all 3 of them going.

    Nonsense. When Nix got here, he said the team was a mess & it would take at least 3 years to fix it. The team now has MUCH better talent than when Nix arrived & anyone that doesn't see that does not know football. The entire OL is MUCH better than when Nix arrived, as well as the DL. He has also added players at other positions as well, such as Spiller & Gilmore.

    It's not nonsense, go back and listen to some of his interviews. He thought he could turn it around faster, and that the media/fans were selling the talent short.

    All three of those teams had better QBs than Fitz.

    BS. You go back & listen to his interviews. He said it would take 3 years to turn this team around. He NEVER said the team could be turned around before that amount of time. This past season is the first time he said the Bills have more talent than they have shown on the field.

    I thought about that too. At least with Jauron we could have had the 1st pick every year and had a chance with Luck without trying to tank the season , then I remembered the maybin pick.

    I agree.

    This could be a tougher decision if they had beat the teams we all penciled them in to beat, but they haven't.

    Meaning, if we were in the hunt at 8-7 or 9-6, and Fitz blew a couple games with his patented game-sealing interceptions, then you could almost point to the QB position as the quote..."real problem".

    That isn't the case here. The Defense has been uncharacteristically awful, the playcalling questionable, the gameday management poor, and...oh, by the way...the quarterbacking has cost us a few games.

    I think when you look at the big picture Mahdi, it pretty much spells out a change is in order.

    It's a shame too. I appreciated his candor in press conferences. He was a breath of fresh air from Jauron, who sounded defeated the day he took the job.

    and whose fault is that? Gailey. Just like it was Jaurons fault for sticking with Trent.

    Chan was not even able to keep these rookies in check, they had career days under his watch.

    Hello!!! The biggest hole was and remains QB!!!!!!!!

    But sure, Nix is a genius for ignoring the position entirely and astute to pick up gems such as Aaron Williams. Could you imagine if Buddy Nix passed on Aaron Williams in the 2011 draft and selected either Dalton or Kaepernick, or or if he, gasp, passed on T.J. Graham and took Wilson or Foles? Imagine the holes on the roster . . .

    The biggest hole NOW is QB. When Nix got to BUffalo, the OL was TERRIBLE. If a QB were drafted before Nix fixed the OL, he would have ended up like David Carr, shellshocked. Carr could have been a VERY good QB had he been drafted by the right team. I already said I was disapointed the Bills did not draft a QB yet. This is the time to do so.
