    Will Bledsoe hurt our coaching search

    Jerry Sullivan wrote today that

    Gilbride has an unwarranted belief in Bledsoe. He's clinging to a myth, which is why he should have been fired by now. He'll be gone, along with Williams, by the start of next season. Bledsoe will be someone else's albatross - just as Rob Johnson was for Williams when he took over.



    I agree....................I think having Drew around may hurt our chances at some of the better coaching canidates this offseason. Would you want your future hanging on an 11year vet that plays like a rookie?

    would you want to be an 11-year vet having to play for a coach that knows less than a rookie?

    I don't think RA understands anything.

    As frustrating as it is for us fans, it must be even more so for Drew. Knowing he has the tools to do the job, but having the OC call stupid plays must be driving him crazy.

    Too bad Drew didn't call more audibles at the line at take control from Gilbride.

    Williams and Gilbride hurt Drew's rep alot more than he hurt theirs. He's playing porrly because of the system.

    lob passes that should only be attempted in the red zone when there's a mismatch...the play calling is just horrible

    "Myth" is a great word. I wish I had first incorporated it.

    A perfect match for Blew's entire career; mythical!
    Replace Donahoe with Modrak and fire the entire coaching staff!

    Then let's go to Disneyworld!

    GO BILLS!!!

    If I was a potential coach, I would be drooling at the opportunity to coach this team.

    Oh man, a Patriots fan actually agrees with the fact that we have a good team?

    EXACTLY! This is a dream come true. i could see Tom Coughlin, Denny Green, or even Jim Fassel looking at this team and the talent and taking the job overa crap team like Chicago or Oakland.

    That's just it, if he did have the tools at one time, that time has past. He has ZERO mobility and that is one thing a QB has to have these days.

    same here. We have decent to excellent talent across the board. There's a few spots that could use some Replacements at. But I've Got to believe we have the talent to do a lot better than what we are doing now...with the proper coaching.

    The NFL is not about the talent.

    The NFL is ALL about the talent! However, GOOD COACHING can make average talent play exceptionally-if they play as a team. We haven't got good coaching, so....4-5!
