Just in Atlanta

I think he was out for less than a year. He was the OC for KC before this.

And boom goes the dynamite.

Didn't know we had an AP guy in our ranks. Not a PPP thing, just a post to show it's more than NFL writers, and that journalism as a whole is on the slide.

It's not just NFL writers. Two rules of journalism: Be accurate and impartial. Journalism as a whole, and I was a reporter, has been sullied by political and social bias for decades. 90 percent of my last newsroom was dominated by one particular political ideology. It's even higher when you get to the top. Some might disagree here, but frankly the bias is palpable, provable and not even debatable to any news consumer capable of looking at things rationally. Now, thanks to social media, it's sullied by not being accurate. There were nine major errors in that Sandy Hook shooting, all stemming from a drive to be first in the real-time media world of Twitter. And forget about reporters actually developing sources anymore and getting real scoops--like Reid's next stop. It's all rumor mongering. Rumors are simply repeated. Half are true. Half are false. And all of us learn to take what the media say with a grain of salt. Sad. Tim Graham, btw, seems to be a rare exception.

No Haslett. My only concern with Lovie--and it's a big one--is that his offenses with the Bears have sucked. I really, really want an innovator either at HC or OC, not another Dick Juaron.

No one can guarantee a QB until we have a coach.

I've always wanted to see an NFL coach who would go for it on 4th far more often than not when you're within 60 yards of the endzone. Firm believer the numbers would ultimately work in favor for you in the long run. The mental impact on the opponent when you convert is far worse than the mental impact on yourself when you don't. Plus, it puts the defense continually in stress, and wears them down. A Chip Kelly offense, which runs a lot more plays, and faster, would add to that. I think I'm definitely thinking good thoughts about Kelly in Buffalo. Can't wait to see the bowl game tonight--haven't seen a Duck's game all year.

I'll see for myself when I watch the bowl game tonight, but he runs about 15 more plays than even the fastest offenses, and spreads the spread as far as it can be spread, from what I've seen. Anyone else want to chime in?

Bruce Arians HC Lovie Smith DC Chip Kelly OC Make it so.

Don't know what's worse--a junior varsity team that sits at the kiddie table or a fake team made in China.

I hate it when people say stuff like this and don't provide explanations. Is there some connection? Is he saying Buffalo always signs journeymen QBs? Or that his playing style would suit the team? I don't see how Smith would be a fit at all.

Why do we want this? The guy seems like an average QB, capable of thriving with a particular offense and stout D but not capable of winning games himself. We already have someone like that.

Get 'er done.

Most coaches weren't good players. Fitz seems to have a solid grasp of the NFL, and is a leader in the locker room.

Having a real innovator on our team is intriguing. Does this guy have the knowledge to run an NFL team, though? Wouldn't a team rather start him off as an OC first? Either way, I think he would like the idea of picking and molding a QB from scratch instead of working with a journeyman. This is going to be an interesting month to see who we interview. Excellent points. This team should have made the playoffs this year with its talent and a poor AFC. De ja vu all over again, but I'm kinda excited now about our possibilities--sound familiar?--now that we have talent and good draft positioning.

He would be a great backup, and mentor.

He's upset because of the running back committee he had in SF. Coming here would be ten times worse. We already have the best duo in the NFL and one of the most exciting RBs we've seen in a long, long time. No way.

That we Bills fans deserve more.

Hell yeah. Also hear Bobby Petrino is looking for a job.

The fact that we're debating whether Wisenhunt, who lost to us this year, and his offensive line coach, who presided over the worst offensive line in football, would be capable replacements to Gailey is deeply depressing and a bit disturbing.

Don't agree or disagree, but please provide your rational when you say stuff like this. Thanks!

In my years following the draft, one thing is certain: No one--not even the experts--accurately predicts who goes where after the fourth pick. Curious: How many here predicted we'd go for Gilmore? I don't remember any expert draft boards predicting this guy. Just did a quick scan on the Stadium Wall, and found only about 10 mentions of his name before Draft Day and none (there may be one or two, but I didn't see any) saying he should definitely be our No. 1 pick.

Fake.football teams made in China be a joke because they aren't real plus I'd rather have a fake Rolex made in China because even.real Timex are made in China too.

Have no opinion on Nix, but if Wannstache's D had performed at just a mediocre level, we'd be fighting for a playoff spot. I think that guy has to go too. What a shame. We all had such high expectations--in previous seasons it was just hope--and our team actually played worse than the previous year.
