    Please do not give me the Belichick argument...

    I don't care that Belichick was one win better than Jauron in their first go round as a HC in the NFL. Just because BB did it in NE doesn't prove that DJ can do it here. That's like saying JP can be an all-Pro and go to the SB because Ben Roethelisberger did. Not logical.

    Do I want DJ to succeed? Of course.
    Do I think he will? I'm not willing to bet on it yet.

    He has to answer what he is going to do with:

    1. the QB
    2. OL
    3. FA
    4. Nate Clements
    5. Eric Moulds

    Those are huge decisions.

    Good luck DJ.




    For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.

    You left out the owner too. Oh wait, he doesn't have that much power.

    1) JP
    2) Hutch AND Bentley
    3) see #2 plus add in Chris Hovan
    4) Let him go
    5) tear up the old contract, start over at #2 pay

    Those would be the right answers, lets see what Dick does.

    1) LMAO
    2) They're not going to the Bills. One will go to the Dolphins.
    3) No offense, but there's at least 25 places that people would rather be than Buffalo
    4) Good move
    5) Let him walk if he wants out

    Capers is being looked at by Saban and Miami. Advantage: Miami.


    As for Sherman, why doesn't Al Davis go after him? There's no one else out there.

    My Answers...

    1. JP
    2. FA (best guards available - but not overpaid for), Draft
    3. FA see above, get some Safety help
    4. Tag and Trade - get another first
    5. Restructure at all costs - we need EMo
    6. Off. Coordinator - Caldwell from Indy, Def. Coordinator - I don't care as long as I've heard of him.
