This just does not feel like the playoffs. A whole bunch of games played in domes, no cold weather, the elements not a concern. We will only have had 2 games played in cold weather - in New England and Cincinnati. Of the 10 playoff games played before the Super Bowl, SEVEN of them (both CC games, the three this weekend, and two from last weekend) will be played in domes. And as a result, it's pretty damn dull.

I've said it before - the NHL should put a team in Seattle or Portland. There aren't enough teams in the western conference anyway and there are plenty of Canadian transplants who love hockey here that'd support the team. The Canucks weren't even shown on TV here until this year, when Comcast picked up a few to show on their network.

I would be. This roster needs someone to motivate them. Dungy is the perfect coach for a team that's self motivated. This isn't that kind of team.

Yet the definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting different results.

Git er done!

No, the rule is not fine the way that it is. The rule is an epic fail when you have two teams whose defenses are miserable and whose offenses are lights out. I would be very curious to see what the coin toss winner's record is when both teams score at least 35 points in a game.

... and no playoffs. He will decline every year, much like Bledsoe. If we were close, it'd be one thing. We're not close.

2010 McNabb = 2002 Bledsoe

Pigs will fly before Wade works for Ralph agin.

I would fully approve of Jason Garrett. My only concern with him would be his ability to motivate.

How do you expect fans to react given our history? Retread Head Coaches: Jauron - Failure Phillips - Playoffs Levy - 4 Super Bowls Knox - Playoffs Saban - AFL championships Coordinators or position coaches who were first time NFL head coaches given the job: Greggo - Failure Mularkey - Failure Bullough - Failure Stephenson - Failure Ringo - Failure Since Saban's second stint, the Bills have had 10 head coaches. 0% of the coordinators have made the playoffs. 80% of the retreads have made the playoffs. Give me the retread any day of the week.

The one guy in that thread lost me with this tidbit (emphasis mine): It's very interesting ... the Bills have been all over Bill Cowher like stink on s**t. On the surface, who could blame them? But ... Bill Cowher plays power, smash-mouth football. Every coach in recent Bills history has attempted to play power, smash-mouth football, mostly because of the horrid weather conditions. So are we to assume that Bill Cowher can actually make Buffalo better? Or would he crash and burn ? Who the hell was he watching?

You did check my profile to see where I live, right? I've lived here for 4 football seasons and no one at work gives a crap about football. There are bigger, more enthusiastic crowds for MLS soccer than for the Seahawks, which is pretty sad.

Seattle is a horrible football town. The only reason Cowher would coach here is because Seattle is flush with cash. Other than that, it offers very little.

Just because they've made a decision doesn't mean they have to announce it right away. If they've "decided" on Frazier, they'll just wait until Minnesota's season is finished.

Apparently Schottenheimer lives in NC as well. Does he live close to Hickory, where those phantom planes from last night were found?

Has anyone just called the switchboard operator at OBD and just flat out asked who is being interviewed?

Just say no to the Tampa 2...

And actually, where is Hammer? Doesn't Buddy the Wonder Dog have his eyes on OBD to figure out wtf is going on here?

There have been ZERO non-commerical flights from Buffalo or Detroit (DTW, DET, PTK) to Minnesota. Unless RB and Buddy Nix are flying commerical, no one from the Bills is in Minnesota yet. I'm still not buying the Hickory flight, though didn't Cowher sell his home down in Raleigh?

FWIW, I find this a hell of a lot more reliable and more interesting than reading Schefter and Glazer's blogs for rumors.

Given the number of times I've refereshed flightaware, I would not be surprised if the TSA and FBI came after me.

But he DOES use NetJets. See the following two flights on the day of the Buddy Nix annoucnement: 31-Dec-2009 GALX/L Buffalo Niagara Intl (KBUF) Coleman A. Young Muni (KDET) 04:03PM EST 04:36PM EST 0:33 31-Dec-2009 GALX/L Detroit Metro Wayne Co (KDTW) Buffalo Niagara Intl (KBUF) 11:20AM EST 11:51AM EST 0:31

In fact, look where Ralphie's plane is - LAX! He's selling the team! http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N748QS

Folks, this is NOT the plane. The plane in question here looks like this: http://www.air-and-space.com/20040924%20SB...landing%20l.jpg Yes, Ralph is cheap. That is why he shares his private jet with a bunch of other people: http://registry.faa.gov/aircraftinquiry/NN...Numbertxt=748QS
