  1. Whats wrong with Robert Gallery anyways?  The dude has started from Day One, it took him a bit to learn the system but I've heard Raiders fans say nothing but good things about him.

    Well, he may be a starter, but he was supposed to walk on water from everything written about him prior to the draft. He got a seven-year contract worth a reported $60 million, with a signing bonus that was said to be around $14 million.

     

    I haven't seen D'Brick play, so I'm not commenting on him. But if he's better than Gallery, the contract numbers we're talking about will make MW's salary look like a bargain.

  2. An OK hire, but aside from the two SB years (1998 with Atlanta, 2001 with St. Louis), there doesn't appear to be a lot of strong defense's on the teams he coached with:

  3. It is a little disconcerting that a guy he worked with in Detroit would not accept a position with the Bills and others well known candidates have accepted positions.  How should we take Henderson potentially choosing the Lions over the Bills?

     

    Not sure if there are some problems here or at least some perception issues after the firing of TD and resignation of MM.

    Probabably just timing. Dick got off to a late start and has only been on the job for 24 hours. The other teams may've also scambled a bit faster to tie guys up, knowing that he'd be on the phone today.

  4. Maybe Alex Van Pelt can call the plays when he is doing the radio broadcasts with Murph.

    AVP is off the brodcast team as he'll be coaching at UB this Fall. Although I think it would be really neat if the Bills offered him the QB coaching position and moved SW to OC. The new Green Bay HC wanted Alex as his QB coach, but reportedly AVP wasn't returning his phone calls. I wonder why? :lol:

  5. you just know that if heimerdinger gets away from the jets, he's heading straight to kc.

    'Dinger's targeted to go to the Broncos, as Shanny was his college romemate.

     

    Bates is still out there, but he wants a ton of $$$$, which I doubt RW would bend over for.

  6. But with tackles like Jeff Backus, Ephraim Salaam, Jon Runyan, Kevin Shaffer, Tom Ashworth, LJ Shelton and Victor Riley...

    I like Runyon a lot. He's the kind of durable, high character guy Marv loves, and there's talk that Philly may not be interested in having him back.

  7. I have changed my avatar to give the new Head Coach a chance....he has not lost a game yet, nothing bad has happened yet..

     

    As a Bills fan who has been a negative thinker plenty of times over the years, Im going to change once and for all.  I am sick and tired of the new way of thinking amongst sports fans, not willing to give a player/coach a chance, always thinking negative, etc.

     

    How do we KNOW Kay Stephenson will work out or not???

     

    Just give him a chance to prove himself, have some patience.  This Bills roster needsa lot of work, give it time. 

     

    Seattle wasnt built overnight, it took PATIENCE and BUILDING piece by piece to become the team they are today.  Same goes for the Steelers.

     

    So yeah, I give John Rauch my 100 percent support...dont hate me!

    Go BILLS!!!!!!!!!!!
