    WHY DO TEAMS PLAY STUPID AGAINST THE PATS?????

  2. highlights:

     

    still shocked about MM resigning

     

    doesn't understand why MM fired great D-coaches and then quit

     

    had great D-coaches, krumrie, blackmon, gray, "diamonds" and you can't replace "diamonds with cubic zirconia"

     

    hopes new coach will bring them back

     

    need an HC established credibility, not a 1st time HC

     

    new HC must be strong leader, team lacking a "motto"

    Not a ringing endorsement of Mularkey, is it? He may be shocked he left, but not disappointed.

  3. PTR--it may be sappy and sentimental, but I somewhat agree with you. 

     

    Buffalo is unique in culture and outlook...its just a quirky and wonderful place.  Many of us on this board have lived a ton of places (7 for me and my crew including--Miami, Minneapolis, DC, Atlanta, Orlando, Houston, now Raleigh)--there is no place that is more loyal to and passionate about a franchise with the possible exception of Green Bay.  A person who begins the greatest job in the community (Coach of the Bills) with this understanding goes a long way toward respect with the fans...

     

    But I also look at it another way...outsiders have been accepted--Saban, Knox, Levy were all outsiders -- so was Polian..but they all had enthusiasm and a plan the fans bought into--they all had some bad years but their teams played hard and they made progress..they were all teachers and they were brutually honest...so more than commitment to community--I think the traits Marv outlined yesterday--

    1) Ability to delegate and manage

    2) Teach

    3) Honesty

    are pretty good traits on which to focus...

     

    This is beloved Marv's first major decision--anyone want to argue that he won't do much better than TD's two choices....I sure wouldn't want to make that case....

    Whether they are outsiders is not my point...it's whether they understand the city and what the team means to it. They can be from anywhere as long as they love the Bills and want to be coaching or playing there for the fans. I have a hunch guys like Gregg WIlliams and Willis McGahee saw/see it as a layover.

  4. Like many of you, I love my old home town. And I takes great pride (and grief) showing my Bills pride. What I can't stand are people who play or coach the Bills who look at it as a ticket to their next gig.

     

    I often wonder how much the players and coaches on the Bills understand what the team means to its fans. How they carry the city on their shoulders when they hit the field.

     

    I guess that's why Jim Haslett appeals to me as the Bills new HC. He gets it. His wife is a native. (FYI: she has been on Haz's case for years to getthe Bills job!!)

     

    With Haz and Levy in charge, I think they would make players understand what they are playing for. Not just personal glory, but the chance to make history, like the Red Sox did when they beat their curse. Each player on on a future Super Bowl Champion Bills team would be revered for all-time.

     

    I want a team of guys who get it.
