Another Fan

The city that is. Forgetting about their sports teams and Pats fans. Was there for a couple of days some years back. It seemed all right, granted it was just to see some of the sights there.

I checked and it hadn't looked like anyone posted on this series yet. Just this past month some Bills announcers in an hour long talk have been breaking down each year of the drought. Presently they are up to 2011. Typically each session goes that they spend the first half hour of the video going over the transactions that occurred in the off season and then the next half hour actually going over the games themselves. I hate and love this series. Hate because it brings back memories of past failures & disappointments. Love because these guys do a really great job with it. I've attached the 2009 year. I just remember it being Jauron's last and the year they signed T.O. https://youtu.be/CYWri4HGq5o

Very true. He may have been the most beloved player since Flutie at the start of that 11' season. He comes across as very likeable/relatable. Too bad though over time he can't back it up

I still think the Hurculues like effort to win that game took up all the teams energy flying across the country for the Raiders game.

I was 6 or 7 and got caught doing it in school. Needless to say I didnt really know what I was doing. The school nurse called my mom. She told me Pee Wee Herman got arrested for doing what you did and you can too. Needless to say it was the last time (being caught anyway).

Actually seemed to chill a guy and ethical to work on Wall Street.

I've liked what I've seen as well out of him but always have cautious optimism. Back when I used to lurk on the BBMB, 95% of the posters loved the Rex Ryan signing in 2015. He was this generations Chuck Knox, the big named coach who signed here. Of course totally different scenario, I'm just always cautious.

Strong personality and intense. Any little mistake can set her off. I mean we're all human though and everyone makes them

Or in my case extremely intimidated by?

Sh*t roles down hill and unfortunately somebody's gotta be at the bottom

Used to be a big fan of his when I was in high school and even owned some of his comedy albums. Then I got older and just found him stupid. But the other night I watched Mr Deeds for the first time in ages and enjoyed it. I liked his sort of regular Joe shtick. I mean some people must have liked his films over the years as I think most of them were profitable.

Awesome video! I thought the 2015 finale against the Jets might make it, especially McKelvin's pick off Fitz. Or at this point is that whole game just forgetful?

Yep! How about Encylopedia Britannicas and card catalogs

Actually I think Doug was stricter than Bill B. Plus Bill B has the Super Bowl rings to back it up. Doug wasn't a bad coach but it was his arrogant attitude that rubbed me the wrong way, even via NFL standards. Reports came out of him being nasty to secretaries, miserable, a control freak, and I believe he thought he was going to get the Jets job so he bailed. There's a reason why his face wasn't included once in the 2014 Bills highlight video. I admit Rex who is Doug's opposite wasn't any better with his approach. Still I personally don't miss Doug.

Andy just posted on there the top 50 plays from 2000-2016. Good watch https://youtu.be/CUR5QIV_np8

I mean yes on paper it sounds good but I'm reading in between the lines of his dictatorship style and not coaching to players strengths

Ultimately reading this article makes me realize nothing's changed with the man. His way or the highway still. http://www.firstcoastnews.com/sports/nfl/jacksonville-jaguars/jaguars-hc-doug-marrone-wants-his-players-to-have-coachability-and-availability-moving-forward/448473836

Craig Ehlo. He didn't have a bad career at all but all people remember him for is getting abused by MJ

Give it a couple of years after he retires and the real story may come out Met fan as well. Beltran was all right as a Met overall. I don't hold a grudge on him for striking out against Wainwright. What bothered me more about him was years later when he signed with the Yankees, his first action was to talk about how bad the Mets treated him. That was without seemingly provoked into it.

Kind of always felt bad for Rich Kotite. I'm from Jersey so I'm familiar with Jet Nation. Back in the 90's he went 4-28 in two years with the team and Jet fans still curse his name, call him a loser, call him a curse, call him a waste of life, etc. Rich still lives in this area and is sort of a recluse as a result. Although Todd Bowels of late may overtake him in terms of Jet Nation dislike. In reality, Rich was able to go to a division III school (Wagner) become an All-American and make it into the NFL as a player. Think he still maybe the only person from that school's history to do so. Was a heavyweight boxing champ when he was younger and spared with Muhammed Ali. Spent many years as an assistant coach before he got a head coaching gig with Eagles. But yeah I always thought it was a case of the worst two years of his life defining him. Two other interesting coaching facts on him: -He got further in the playoffs with the Eagles then Rex's dad ever did -If you compare Rich's 6 years head coaching record to Bill Belichick's first 6 years coaching, the Win-Loss record are about the same. Kind of helps the Brady arguments that he's more important than Bill.

There all male

Well how about Chris Hogan? When he was here he was just all right but in the playoffs with the Pats he came up huge. Especially in their game against the Steelers. How much of that do you attribute to coaching/environment?

How about Kurt Warner and Joe Montana? I mean he got called Joe Cool for some of his personality traits as well.
