  1. People can make hay out of the way WNYers talk too...
  2. Thanks. I am looking at getting them for the first time and am hoping to get good seats.
  3. This hire reminds me of the Norv Turner hire in San Diego and the Wade Phillips hire in Dallas.
  4. Where did you hear that Weiss turned down the Bills? There was a report that the Bills reached out to him to see if Weiss had interest and that Weiss replied back that he did. Then, after Buddy Nix was hired, there was nothing further. Did I miss something?
  5. He's just reacting to the Trey Wingo/Schefter story.
  6. A Dick Jauron type hire.
  7. Weren't they at the tail end of their careers? IIRC, Dave Campo did worse.
  8. Um... what are they supposed to do? Frazier can't accept the job right now and what's to stop him from turning the Bills down when he can?
  9. Hastening the return of Todd Collins!
  10. The key is what kind of OC he brings. If he gets an experienced one with a good track record, this could work out well.
  11. Any thoughts about Gruden?
  12. *is a young, assistant GM* *wants a GM job* *is bitter about Buddy Nix hire* *makes anonymous dig at Bills through PFW*
  13. I do not understand why an open head coaching opportunity should be so perfect. HCs get fired from teams performing badly.
  14. When Pete Carroll turned down multiple NFL teams in the past, the media didn't paint that as a slight on the rejected teams only that Pete Carroll wanted to stay in the college ranks for now. I don't see how this should be different.
  15. I believe there was a Buffalo News story that said that Weiss was interested. This was before Buddy Nix. My assumption was that once Buddy Nix came aboard, there was no further interest in Weiss. Edit: WIVB http://www.wivb.com/dpp/sports/bills_and_n...t_Weis_20091227
  16. I am not trying to knock the Bills for letting these people go. Some connections are weaker than others, but it's just interesting that so many that have played large roles in recent Bills history are playing major roles with current playoff teams.
  17. http://espn.go.com/blog/afceast/post/_/id/...your-doorstep-4 All I read was that the Bills reached out to Weiss and that Weiss was interested, but that the Bills ultimately did not pursue him. Did I miss something?
  18. The Colts with Bill Polian? The Chargers with AJ Smith? The Vikings with Pat Williams and Winfield? The Saints with Gregg Williams, Greer (and Preliou) The Cowboys with Wade Phillips?
  19. I thought I heard that Conan was negotiating payoffs to them as well. If not, Conan can always give them a fraction of the settlement given to him.
  20. If Ralph Wilson had done this (hire an OC before a HC), then it would be considered another example of why Buffalo is such a terrible place to coach.
  21. Not Buddy Nix. Did the interview go that badly?
  22. Did it ever come out why Perry Fewell, who I thought did a good job nonetheless, was selected over April for the interim job? And why did April not get an interview for the head job? It's not as if special teams coaches don't make good head coaches (Levy, Harbaugh).
  23. If $30 million dollars to leave a job is the "Shaft," then give it to me any day. And yes I know that this sentence is leaving me open to certain jokes.
  24. Was he? I am on Conan's side, but Kimmel's remark talking about how Leno only has cars and not kids seemed a little far. I just cannot understand, though, why Leno wants to be the villain again.
