Kraft sweetened McDaniels contract. It's now in writing that Joshie is the next man up after Belichick retires (or so I'm hearing)

If true, does that not violate the Rooney rule?

If i was a GM with a young QB I absolutely would call Romo to see if he wants to come out of booth and into coaching 

I was really impressed with Romo in the booth, I agree I think he would be an excellent choice for coaching

[Only in Buffalo would this be considered a successful season]

I disagree, I think we had a successful season, We made the playoffs, played competitively in the playoffs, and have something to build on, done by a rookie head coach who had a bad QB. My expectations are met for this year. Next year they will be higher, If we can get a QB well, we should be making some noise next year.

Seriously guys, I know we all don’t all get along but this right here makes me proud that we are all bills fans and we are the BEST fans in the NFL and it is showing how classy we really are!

[Rumor- Bills will entertain trade offers for Watkins?]

I'll give Vic credit for one thing; he got the stupid language about the Watkins trade correct: "what the Bills gave up to go up to get him -- first- and fourth-round picks." Maybe we can stop all this talk of how we gave up two firsts and a 4th now.

If by "same result" you mean not winning the Super Bowl, then I agree. But it's safe to say that if either of us were running the team, they'd be in worse shape than they are now.

 

For one thing, I doubt that either of us keeps an objective list of every single personnel decision and how we felt about it, but we tend to remember the ones where we were right. So the idea that we'd have done better is simple confirmation bias.

 

Second, nobody on this board knows exactly what a GM does. Yeah, he's in charge of personnel, but we don't know all the intricacies of the business, and we don't have access to the same information that he has.

 

Like I said before, until you've done the job, you have no idea how difficult it is, and therefore you have no idea how well you'd perform it.

Well If you tell me I'm doing a simple confirmation bias then I'd say you are doing an appeal to authority bias. The bills haven't made the playoffs in 17 years. Any fan could have had that result. No one knows what a GM actually does unless they have done it? Seriously? That is like saying you can't do your taxes unless your an accountant for H&R Block. Also it doesn't take knowing ones job to see a bad job done.

[Football Isn't Rocket Science Just Common Sense !!]

Everything seems easy to the non-expert, but when someone works in a field at a professional level, they see that it's far more complicated than they imagined before. In short, until you know more about something, you don't realize how little you actually know about it.

 

While that's true, think of this, I could have ran the bills for 17 years with the same result. So could you have.

I always lurked between BBMB, TSW, Billszone, and the range, but I posted on BBMB, nice to see some of the banned posters on BBMB that came here.
