am i the only one who thought TO could have caught that tipped ball when we were near the goal line in the 4th quarter? if only he was paying attention...

I agree 100%. This is one of the most intelligent posts I've read on this board in a while.

Firing Jauron now shows the 'big name' coaches we have a vacancy and gives them time to really think about it. Much better to do it this versus waiting until it's too late after the end of the season to fire someone, and then ending up with Norv Turner.

Schottenheimer was fired after going 14-2 in the regular season. If Jerry wants him out, it won't matter what his record is.

Simple: his offenses were terrible. Horrific. Look at every guy they've mentioned thus far. They've all had successful offenses at some point in their NFL coaching career.

when perry fewell gets the Bills to the Superbowl and the AFC championship game 2x, you can make this comparison. Until then, don't waste my time.

I don't think Cowher is coming here. According to Thurman, Cowher is waiting for the Dallas job. Also, I've heard Cowher's demands include a stable QB. That part is definitely lacking here.

They can't throw Shanahan's name out there and not get a guy of his caliber. I honestly think the fans will officially give up on the Bills. It would be a HUGE letdown. I really think they'll get a top-notch guy. I can't believe I just typed that!

i guess the bigger question is would you rather have oher than maybin? As it stands right now, the answer is easy. YES!

Whitner is making 6 mil per year. That's a reasonable salary?

hamdan. what is his purpose again? isn't he part of or head of the scout team for the opposing defense? how's that working out? i like the idea of trent as backup. he can win you one game at least. i have no desire to see trent as the starter. that ship has sailed.

I've come around on Whitner this year. It sucks that he is hurt. He was all over the field before he got hurt. Denney's contract is up. So they don't need to cut him. Does Lynch qualify as a 'suprise' cut? He hasn't looked great all year. Is anyone really going to be suprised if McCargo, Ellison or Parrish is cut? The only 'suprise' cut I could see is Schobel. I would be suprised because he's had a decent year. I guess Poz would qualify as a surprise cut, only because a lot of people love the Polish kid.

One thing seems certain to me - the Bills are REALLY pissed about their offense. Look at every candidate that's been mentioned, with Shanahan atop the list. They are all really good offensive guys. Even that CFL coach mentioned had success coaching offense in the NFL. I want entertaining football!! Seems like the Bills do too!!

I don't have a problem with Brandon. That being said, I don't want him being the GM. It's encouraging to me that they want to bring in a football guy as GM. That's a big blow to Brandon's ego. Either that or Brandon himself knows he's in over his head. I'm glad his name didn't appear on the billboard.

I'm excited to see a name like Shanahan and the Bills in the same sentence. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but didn't Dick Jauron beat Mike Shanahan the last time their teams played? Am I supposed to just forget that ever happened?

it's the real thurman thomas. he pimps his twitter on his WGR show @ 10am monday's. the link is http://twitter.com/thurmanthomas This gives me hope. It shows that Ralph isn't stopping w/DJ. Thank god. I want some new playoff memories!

how bad as San Diego looked since they got rid of Marty? They aren't even close to 14-2. It was a miracle they got to 8-8 last year.

"Mr. Ralph" - that's hilarious

I'd love to see Marty or Dungy. I think those are the realistic "big names". Can't see Cowher actually coming here.

And Stevie Johnson was a 7th round pick, not a 6th round pick. Don't discount him just because he was picked so late. Good football teams get good players in the later rounds.

Did you feel the same way about Fred Jackson and Jabari Greer? One thing you can easily point to w/DJ is that he is (was) married to his current starters

waiting for the "Jim Kelly for offensive coordinator" comment...

You still like Marv Levy, considering he was the one who pushed for Jauron? Bringing him back was a terrible idea. He ruined your football team - you still like the guy? I appreciate what he did as a coach. He was good. But I hate him for ruining our current football team.

i'm sorry, but marv was an absolute train wreck here as GM. I went to all 3 of the AFC championships games here. He was a good coach. BUT HE WAS A TERRIBLE GM! He was absolutely awful. I now officially hate Marv Levy. The game has passed him by. Anyone that thinks differently should listen to the interviews he did a couple weeks ago in Buffalo to pimp his new book.
