Well it's a good thing I didn't say that then. I did read it, and I agree.

There is no need to repeat it, or to even say it in the first place. I think it's patently obvious that yes, if an owner does not like a coaching candidate there is nothing any President or GM in the league can do about it. If Doug Marrone had success from the get go, none of this is being discussed right now. If Chan Gailey had success from the get go, none of this is being discussed right now. If Dick Jauron had success from the get go, none of this is being discussed right now. What's the variable in this equation and what's the constant?

No, he certainly agreed with it. Probably influenced it more than most want to admit. You inferred that he had no other option even if he did disagree. And just because he hasn't been acting unilaterally in the past while wearing the title of President doesn't excuse him from his mistakes.

No, he doesn't have to tell him that. If he doesn't agree with the hire, he should voice his opinion on it.

You seem to be a bit misinformed. Russ sat in on the Rex interview, he is 100% responsible for the hire of Marrone.

Yeah, the "Marketing Man" typically sits in on coaching interviews. I guess the tooth fairy hired Doug Marrone?

It's a fruitless effort to try to reach the Brandonites. In the past I've likened it to deprogramming a Scientologist.

Hold the front office accountable? Did that thread get renamed and filled with different posts?

Ryan still knows the majority of this Jets' team better than their own coach. He also completely owns Fitz. This is one of the rare match-ups where I feel very confident about our coaching staff. With the help of 2 defensive TDs, the Kool-Aid will flow like Niagara Falls for 10 days after this trouncing. Bills 38 Jets 17

Max protect for an inexperienced QB. When Brady gets back, he'll probably slide into the Aaron Hernandez role, sans all the murdering.

I'll never forgive Vic for this loss.

Even with a young QB making his 1st start on the road vs. a top team in the league Garopollo never looked flustered. He didn't burn a single timeout. You would think there would be at least 1 instance of a defensive front or alignment that confused him enough to burn one, especially with the crowd noise. That's just amazing preparation and you have to tip your hat.

It's situational.

Wow, I didn't even realize the Chiefs came back from being down 24-3 to win. Crazy.

There's no need to turn on each other.

Oh God, Sullivan is going to write a small novel about this game.

Aside from that Bills game, there's been a lot of great games so far. Jacksonville almost upsetting Green Bay, the Raiders going for 2 to win it instead of forcing overtime, Fitz throwing his patented 4th quarter pick (okay, Marshall should have caught that pass 2 plays earlier).

At least we got rid of the pre-season Kool-Aid.

Calls timeout on 3rd and 16. Throws a 1 yard pass.

Oh my. It's the negative vibes from the fans that caused Fitz, Johnson, and Losman to fail? You have to be trolling on someone's alt account. Ironically, Vic is the only reporter at the BN that predicts them finishing 10-6 and going to the playoffs.

It was alright, like a low-production Hard Knocks. I'm deducting points because they didn't show the entire Rookie Show, which is always the highlight of camp.

The score doesn't depend on what is written in the Buffalo News. You're not the only one here who doesn't understand this.
