    We need a GOOD coach... plain and simple.

    It doesn't matter if that coach is young or old, experienced or inexperienced, offensive or defensive, aggressive and fired-up or passive and laid-back.
    Our problem for the last 10+ years hasn't been the "type" of coach that we have hired. It's that the coaches we have hired just suck.

    Same thing on the personnel side.
    Buddy Nix thought he could fix this team by building the "right way" -- meaning building through the draft instead of free agency.

    But there is no right way and wrong way.
    Donahoe, Levy and Brandon failed because they didn't bring in the right players. Nix may have a different approach, but it still hasn't worked because his drafting has been terrible.

    Get going and bring in a younger guy with fresh ideas and knows how to put
    modern game plan together. Sometimes I swear this team operates like it's in
    1970's or 1980's. Sheesh! It's the 21st Century OBD, stop with the antiquated
    ways of running that franchise.
    It's interesting that Tom Coughlin is considered a dinosaur. Bill Belichick cut his teeth during the '80's. Gailey actually put together a "modern game plan". 4 or 5 wide spread offense, quick drops and throws, lots of shotgun. NE runs basically the same offense. His single biggest mistake was hitching his wagon to Ryan Fitzpatrick, not his conceptual approach.

    Jimmy Johnson has said "It used to be a QB driven league, now QB is the only thing".

    The most sought after coach in the last 6 years is "old school" and on the wish list of almost every Bills' Fan.

    Bill Cowher.
