  1. I have a hard time believing that Manning would be involved in the search for Denver's next head coach and then leave for another team. http://fantasynews.cbssports.com/fantasyfootball/update/24960083/elway-peyton-manning-will-be-involved-in-search-for-new-coach
  2. 'This is our time' . You may have just coined the new marketing slogan for 2015...
  3. No. The interview would be for a promotion to DC. PJ is not currently the Bills DC.
  4. I agree 100%, Dean. He's what the Bills needed at the time though to bring them out of the barren '70s (1 playoff appearance in '74). His defense in 1980 was fantastic & 'The Bermuda Triangle' was fun to watch. Had Fergy not been hobbled by a bum ankle in San Diego, I do think that the Bills would've gone to the Super Bowl that year and Knox may have been able to shed the "not the guy to get you to the next level" tag.
  5. Sorry, but you're wrong. Your sentiment is on target though...Ralph was notorious for hiring his coaches on the cheap. I just think that it wasn't fair to leave out Knox. He was a "big name" hire and a good one at that.
  6. Shouldn't that bet be in British Pounds (£)?

  9. I agree that it could have gone either way. I saw it as the dopey "didn't complete a football act". I think it may be the stupidest rule in the book but I also believe that the refs actually got it right. I can also see where people would disagree. Dallas fans can't blame the refs. They advanced last week on a controversial call that benefited them.
  10. Bulls***! I didn't manipulate any stats and I didn't downplay his SB wins. I simply pointed out that they occurred pre-turn of the century, which is true and that he's done next to nothing during the time that the Bills have missed the playoffs. That includes Denver, not just Washington. I also said in another post that I wouldn't stop following the team if they hired him...he's just far from my first choice and I think that the Bills can do far better under the Pegulas than they did under Ralph and that means no to Shanahan. I never said he was horrible, he's just not the coach to lead this team into the 21st century NFL, IMO. Sorry to be so blunt but it's the truth.
  11. I voted for Darrell Bevell in the who do you want as HC thread, although I wouldn't be crushed if they didn't get him. I also wouldn't stop following the team if they chose Shanahan. He's just far from my first choice. I'm assuming that you were one of the 4 forward thinkers out of the 75 casting votes so far who want Shanahan. If not, I apologize...that would make 5 out of 76. Reminds me of those who wanted Lovie Smith two years ago. Were you one of them?
  12. Nobody thinks that Little Dummy Snyder is a horrible owner more than I do. But Shanahan was the VP of Football Operations and willingly took that job knowing who the owner was. Do you really think that he had no input into all that went on there??
  13. I couldn't care less what the 49ers "think". They just let a guy walk who has had them at the top of the league and given them the most stability they've had in years. You can have Shanahan. Absolving him of everything that went wrong in DC is asinine. He's just as culpable as that asshat Snyder. It's clearly outlined what Shanahan has done during the Bills playoff drought, not just during is abysmal years in Washington. He won two Super Bowls in the late '90s. Good for him. You'd probably love to have Don Shula & John Madden at this point, too. Congrats on setting your bar low....that way you can't be disappointed. "Champagne tastes"...good one. You must be suffering from PTSD after all those years under Ralph.
  14. Ballamore D has played much better than I thought they would. Stillers really miss Le'Veon Bell.
  15. Carolina won their division, Arizona was a Wild Card team.
