And he might the second coming of Hank Bullough. The only way Fewell gets the HC job is for the Bills to win the remaining games, make the playoffs, and win the SB. Other than that: Shake his hand, give him a hearty pat on the back, and show him the exit. This entire coaching staff (except for April, MAYBE) needs to go. Period.

What do you think of the outcome of the Peters trade?
Cynical replied to Steely Dan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The truly sad part is while Peters is 'average', he is still better than his replacements. Yes, Peters has missed 2 games. Walker, his first replacement, has been cut, never making it to regular season. Tinkerbell, his second replacement is now gone for the year, and was the most penalized OL this year. Don't want to pay Peters huge money for average play? Fine. But you better have a legitimate plan in place to replace him. When they announced they were going with Walker, I knew then it was going to be a disaster. -
Good thing Maybin was the 11th pick then. The problem with the Maybin pick was Maybin was considered to be raw talent and a project. To the Bills, he was a luxury pick they could not afford. They needed help NOW, not 2-3 years from now.

The JP ship has sailed. I agree with rabbit that the Bills should have done more in the off season looking for his replacement. Thinking they could go into the season with Walker and/or Tinkerbell at that spot was a horrendous mistake. -

"Ryan Fitzpatrick gives us our best chance to win"
Cynical replied to Boolay's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I have been saying that for the past 2.5 years. There have been numerous games that phrase applies to. -
"Ryan Fitzpatrick gives us our best chance to win"
Cynical replied to Boolay's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Remember those three bad passes in a row Trent threw vs the Titans? Come on, you 'member, right? First pass, over TO's head Second pass, bounces off the carpet before reaching TO Third pass, pick 6 while staring down Josh Reed I have no illusions about Fitz. He's terrible. And unlike you, I have no illusions about Edwards. He's terrible also. -

Time to give it up on Edwards. Edwards has lost the confidence of his team mates. Doesn't matter how good good you think he is, his team doesn't think he can do it. Do not underestimate the significance of that. If Edwards had taken more chances, he probably would be the starter. Linky -
Shake his hand, give him a hearty pat on the back, and show him the door. NEXT!

Permanent? Let's think about this for a minute, shall we? Let's assume the Bills really are going to go after one of the "proven" winners (Gruden, etc..). You honestly think Cowher, et al, would just jump at the chance to take a team over half way through the season? What about coaches on other teams? Cannot even interview them until the season is over. But you want a complete new front office by Xmas.

If he was hired to beat the Bills, he was successful If he was hired to lead the Phins to the SB, he failed.

Maybe it has something to do with his guarantee of the Dolphins being in the SB by his 4th year. Maybe it has to do with him never winning the division during his 4 years in Miami

Kelly basically throws Edwards under the bus

I will be absolutely thrilled the moment he leaves. -

Did you miss the Browns game where Trent did ... did ... did ... What did Trent do again? -
"Ryan Fitzpatrick gives us our best chance to win"
Cynical replied to Boolay's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
As revealed during the preseason, not a single Bills player would call Trent Edwards the leader. Sorry. Don't care how much "talent" you think he has, if his teammates do not respect him ... -
Anyone hear of any player reactions?
Cynical replied to Kiwi Bills fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Who cares how they feel about Fewell. Unless Fewell performs some sort of miracle (a winning record with no QB?), I would say Fewell's days are also numbered. -
Schein Blaming TO for Jauron firing
Cynical replied to bills_fan_in_raleigh's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
My eyes must have deceived me. I could have sworn I saw Josh Reed also involved in that spat, and Reed was backing Owens. I am with Realist. I think AS comments had a much bigger influence, as AS pretty much stated publicly this team has no direction. -
Favre lasted exactly one year in Atlanta before he got traded for a FIRST ROUND PICK. Further, the Falcons had just finished a season posting a 10-6 record, going 1-1 in the playoffs. Call me crazy, Favre was probably traded because the Falcons felt they had their QB, and some other team was coughing up a FIRST ROUND pick. Favre was NOT "jettisoned" from Atlanta. Montana won a SB in his third year. Brees was released because of his shoulder. It had nothing to do with his performance, or perceived lack of. The day Edwards shows he can run and manage a pop warner offense with success is the day I might believe that. Expecting him to run a more complex system is asking for disaster. Even with a dumbed down O, Edwards still looks lost, confused, and generally shows very little passion in playing. Does he even understand the concept of "communication"?
-
Yep. And I am all in favor of giving Trent all the time off in the world so he develop that game.
-
There it is. The undeniable recognition. You will probably never figure out what "it" is. You may not even care. But it's there. In reality, there is no "one" thing that's causing it. It's part of his character/behavior. The only way I have been able to convey it is "He lacks passion", but will admit that may not be 100% correct description. He's demeanor created an atmosphere of apathy and no real direction. Win/lose, no difference. Yep. And that SOB doesn't exist on this roster. 7 games to go, and another year already pissed away. The nightmare continues
-
That's the point, it doesn't. I do find it comical people saying we need or should keep starting Trent. Why do we? Do it round robin, pick straws, paper rock scissors, etc ... whatever. It will not matter who we start, so there is NO need to start anybody in particular.
