Would you take the bills to win the super bowl at 120:1?
milehiLou replied to Hossage's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
no but i would take 20:1 to win the afc east -
what gets me is that people pay money to that moronic four lettered sports network for their inside information, lol
-
they walked through training camp thank you, i agree but it is the dead of july. everyone but trent edwards evidently small and weak doesnt add up well with out of shape and out coached.

Some Old 'Gailey' articles to read
milehiLou replied to BillsFanInLV's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
unless your last name is steinbrenner, you know better than hire someone you have already fired -
who did you want to hire? shanahan? lets look at washingto in 3 yrs, i put my money on gailey over shanny. if you know me you know i never thought jauron was a savior, i have many friends from chicago who immediately lauged at the bills for hiring him, leading me to doubt his creds immediately, and it showed in his very first game where he went for it on fourth and one with a 12 pt lead against the reeling patriots, the run off right tackle by willis was stopped and the pats drove down the field scored and ran it up from there, hence our first experience with the skeletor stare into nothingness. never liked jauron and i was right about that. thank you....the head coach is responsible for everything, hence title head coach. the guy wants to be there 80 hrs a week, he hired a running backs coach that knows his scheme, Gailey will be calling the plays from the sideline, not his inexpereinced OC. The offensive line has blocked fairly well over the past years, the problem is the slant pattern was non-existant for three yrs in the bills offense, so on third down dbs could sit on the outs and double the slot, which ended many drives. Demetrius bell is not the anwer i agree, however my opinion is jamon meredith is gelling with andy levitre and will be a quiet solid left tackle for years. i never got on the line for a few reasons, one being the strength and conditioning of the linemen was poor, the other reason was the tiny playbook the bills played with under jauron and any of his coordinators made it easy for other defenses to make them look really bad. if eric wood can heal properly, he and levitre form a strong guard duo, and i believe kyle calloway will develop into an effective right anchor. the final point is that dick jauron just had no field general in him, he was small and frail looking, which didnt go well with his look of fear. not inspiring at all to grown men.

lol. no i think jauron was an overachiever as a player, much like george wilson is, but didnt have the "it" factor as a coach...i believe he would ignore the ideas of his players and coaches because he fired two offensive coordinators in three years, one on the eve of the season which is indicative to me that he didnt deal well with dissent and opinions of his coaching staff, not trying to speak for him, its my view, my humble opinion, and stated it as such, but thanks for just disagreeing to disagree.

i dont disagree, however unless something miraculous happens and ralph finally gets it, we are stuck with this bunch, led by this front office. i agree that the right thing to do would be to sell the team now, to a group of investors, much like Green bay, but i dont see ralph doing that either, and unless he does the team immediately becomes an unknown entity altogether if and when he ever dies. as far as gailey goes, i gush for these reasons...he inherits a very young team which hasnt tasted success yet, unlike his days in dallas where he got the oldies and coached them at the end. as an offensive minded coach he brings an offensive mind to the head coaching position for the first time since mularkey quit five years ago. also he has lots and lots of talent on the offensive side of the ball to utilize, ooodles of it and hes licking his chops to prove to the league that he has gotten a bad rap, kind of reminds me of thurmans attitude when he was passed over in the first round. hes a football guy, jauron wasnt..thats exciting in iself

Why the Bills drafted CJ Spiller
milehiLou replied to iLikeChix's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
dont forget that Kelly called lots of the plays at the line of scrimmage, similar to payton manning. (bills 90's=colts 00's) -
Why the Bills drafted CJ Spiller
milehiLou replied to iLikeChix's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
here are some more reasons.......... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFcecMcS6bA...feature=related -
Looking back over the last four seasons of buffalo bills foootball, its easy for the deft fan to realize that the team on the field didnt match the potential of its parts. Players were underutilized and schemes were easily deciphered by opposing defensive coordinators. Qbs were taken from cocky rookies to gun-shy patsies, rbs went from thug to 1000 yard rushers back to thug, wrs were ignored largely with the exception of a gigantic pr splash last season (which incicentally didnt work out so great) and an undersized, speedy defense looked small and weak against the run. Combine those factors with the fact that the head coach seemed to have aboslutely no input into playcalling, situational or otherwise, or how or when to throw the replay flag and you end up with a team that is winning about forty percent of the games. Many players were unable to finish the season due to serious injury, and games were lost largely in the fourth qtr when other teams seemed to have more energy late in the game. Thinking players could go through training camp mostly in shorts and helmets without contact was one of Jaurons biggest mistakes because players werent thouroughly ready for live action football when the time came. Looking at the videos of players this season its apparent to me that they have been hitting the weights more, both donte whitner and trent edwards looked markedly bigger through the shoulders than in the past, and i dont recall a player from the Jauron era actually sweating during and interview post practice (mini camp mind you, not even t-camp) and pretty profusely at that. I dont have access to the lockerroom so i dont know how players really felt about the last head coach, but from the answers they are giving in response to questions about Gailey, it seems like they are comparing (mentally at least) the inept coaching style of Jauron with the enthusiastic teaching methods of Gailey. to me Jauron was in a shell, unapproachable and sour, someone who would hear your idea and nod but throw it to the wayside as soon as you left his office, someone set in his ways and inflexible. on the contrary Chan Gailey reminds me of the guy you would call at 3;45 in the morning with a car problem and he would be there in his pajamas ten minutes later, he reminds me of the uncle you can confide in, or the thoughtful boss. He actually really makes me think he is a blend of true feelings and lots of knowledge and quick thinking. i didnt trust Jaurons gut instincts, and i dont think he did either maybe its wishful thinking but i believe in Chan Gailey and think he will lead the Buffalo Bills to many victories for the next decade or so.

Need to win 12 games or totally flame out
milehiLou replied to BennieAnderson's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
just remember that ryan leaf was drafted second overall . otherwise, david gerrard, akili smith and joey harrington, tim couch and michael vick would have something to say about being good and a top pick, as would david carr, alex smith, vince young and jamarcus russell. not saying there is no way to land a great starting nfl signal caller in the top five picks of the draft, i am saying it is far from a sure thing what would jim kelly have done without the usfl? it was the perfect warmup for him as a first rounder (14th overall, buffalos second first round pick *tony hunter went at 12) -

i think fans are higher on bell than gailey is, Jamon Meredith is a stud, gailey knows it, Bell knows it. why are they sooooo bad, because they opened up holes for a thousand yard rusher? i would like you to tell eric w ood and andy levitre that the line is not good enough to open holes, that would be a funny exchange

forgot to mention that you are an assumptive person, to ASSUME that because a fan of a team in florida doesnt know who the secondor third yr linebacker from another division, who has been injured for a good part of his career, and hasnt really stood out among the leagues best, as well as played his college football far far from the sec or the acc. the fact that you ASSUME other teams fans are even close to being on par with the passion for their team and the NFL (as you obviously are) as buffalo bills fan....... then you have never left WNY because once you pass pittsburgh and cleveland, there is huge dropoff in passion and knowledge, believe me half the bronco fans dont even know they traded brandon marshall. seriously. good try on making an interesting post however. LOL

milehiLou replied to GOBILLS!!!!!'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
