Shanahan taking a year off
DrFishfinder replied to BuffaloWings's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Don't blame Shanahan. Wouldn't want to walk into the situations in Detroit, Cleveland or New York. -
Meanwhile in the rest of the world

My analysis on why Ralph kept DJ...
DrFishfinder replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ralph "went throught a process before deciding to stick with Dick", is in all honesty, an educated guess and most likely >50% correct. However, my guess is that that guess comes from logic, reasoning and common business sense from the Dean's perspective. I don't think think any of us knows what, if any process, Ralph used. He's 90 years old. Nine zero. Exactly what kind of "process" is a 90 year old mind capable of? My wife's grandmother is 92 and as much as I love and admire her, her mind is clearly not that of even a 70 year old person. She has lived an amazingly rich and storied life, filled with a great many accomplishments. And before she does things with her assets, I'm sure she goes through some sort of "process", the results of which are very questionable in some cases. I rest my analogy. -
My analysis on why Ralph kept DJ...
DrFishfinder replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You have good points above. However, that has nothing to do with the awful coaching job that Jauron did this year. Bad decision after bad decision and consistant clock mismanagement have nothing to do with Pennington, Flacco, Porter, Ryan, Turner, Edwards eratic play or injuries to Bills players. Jauron made mistakes that a coach with his experience simply should not make. Period. That either is, or is not, true. If you believe that not to be true, fine. Then we agree to disagree. -

DrFishfinder replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I know you're not defending Jauron. But given his record, both at Chicago and in Buffalo, along with the mind-numbing mistakes he made this year, it's hard for me and a lot of sports commentators and writers, to justify keeping him. I keep pointing to Atlanta, Baltimore and My Yami as teams who did very well with 1st year coaches....all in the playoffs. Given that fact, along with everything else that's been said and documented about Jauron, it's hard to justify bringing him back for what all the evidence indicates, will be a repeat of the past. All teams play with injuries and/or suspensions. That's not an excuse for Jauron, that's an NFL reality for every team. -

DrFishfinder replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
After 2 head coaching jobs, the fact which stands out is that Jauron has regressed. He has absolutely no excuse whatsoever for the horrible play calling and time mismanagement that happened this year. No one is perfect. The mistakes that Jauron made, or allowed to happen, would be understandable if he was a rookie HC. He isn't. He's had 3 years to prove himself in Buffalo and instead he's produced 7-9 duds each year. If you can give me any tangible reasons why his 4th year should be any different than the first three, I'm all ears. -
As much as it pains me to say it, the Dolphins are playing solid ball and are motivated and well coached. That being said, it would be hard not to improve on a 1-15 season. With the Bills and Jets fading away and Miami playing solid ball, Miami had an easier time of it than they should have.

Well, you're joining a lot of other people that Ralph doesn't give a crap about. -

Nope....5-11. Unless Spielberg starts scripting the games. -

DrFishfinder replied to GG's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree. The Bills would drive into the red zone and then turn into the Three Stooges. If, and that's a gargantuan IF, they could have finished drives in the Red Zone, we might not be having this conversation. -

DrFishfinder replied to GG's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yeah, I know it's stupid. I'm just letting off steam. But if Ralph was as furious as he ought to be, Jauron wouldn't be there. Ralph should be determined along with furious. I don't see that. I see Ralph being naive enough to give DJ a 4th chance with piss poor odds of anything substantive changing. And I doubt Jauron is contrite or nervous. Relieved, maybe. Jauron couldn't be contrite if he took acting lessons. -
I would like to hear it from Jauron directly,
DrFishfinder replied to Cugalabanza's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If Jauron has any brains at all, he will keep his yap shut, coach the Bills to 5-11 next year, take a hike and collect whatever is left on his contract. Ralph will watch ticket and merchandise sales drop through the basement and wonder why. -
Ralph is settling for doing the same thing for the 4th year in a row with no reasonable expectation of improvement. Ralph is putting out crap and I don't do crap.

Don't hate the team. Hate Ralph. Hate Jauron. Hate Schonert and Fewell if you want. Those are the reasons that this organization has become such a laughing stock and Ralph is at the top of the list for putting up with it.

2009 Schedule is a killer.... 7-9 will be tough...
DrFishfinder replied to AnthonyF's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Ralph has just proven, beyond any reasonable doubt, that he doesn't care one iota about winning. If laughing after his team got shellacked at the Toronto "Home" game isn't proof enough, he brought back the Architect of Disaster for another losing season. There will be one less sucker watching the Bills or buying any Bills merchandise next year. -

If the Bills win 5 games next year, it will be a miracle. A U.S., Grade A, Prime Choice miracle. -

DrFishfinder replied to GG's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If Jauron can't even pay attention to a clock, I don't think he is going to pay any attention to email either. Jauron and Ralph are both laughing their asses off right now. Ralph for getting away with paying his "Head Coach" peanuts and Jauron for stealing another year's salary after tanking this year. They're both laughing so hard they're crying over a bottle of Sam's Club Whiskey, courtesy of Ralph. Damn nice piece on TBD, GG. Damn nice.
