Him or Beane? Or both? I've been on record since the day were hired that if they can't get the job done, they need to get the !@#$ out of town. 3 years is more than fair, and I think they bought a little more time than that by breaking the drought. That can all change if things turn into a complete and total disaster, but I'm not close to making that call after only 2 games. The one thing that is crystal clear though is the failures here before them had to get thrown into the trash, of that there can be no doubt.

It was absolutely his decision not to draft either one, so yes, the bottom line is that he owns it.

As always, the bottom line is what matters... and the bottom line once again is that Whaley and his team made ZERO decisions about anything after McD was hired. Like I said, it is what it is.

He gets full credit and blame for everything that happened between the day he was hired and the day Beane was hired. It is what it is.

Absolutely not, sorry.

Nope. Whaley and crew were dead men walking after McD signed.

Nope. Both signed under McD (but not Beane).

The least he could've done was play and keep whiffing on blocks until Bledsoe was dead.

Wow, Belichick looks really, really old. This year has to be it for him.

About what I expected from Allen, needs a lot of work. I do think that if instead we picked Rosen, he'd be on IR.

6 catches, 100 yds; 1 run, 31 yds. Sometimes you have to give the decoy the ball.

Looks like Miami will be in 1st place in the AFC East.

There may be better links out there, but here's the first one I found: http://www.billsbackers.com/122703.htm Ruben Brown A No-Show Another element came to light before the game with the Patriots when it was announced that Ruben Brown was "excused" from the game. Bills coach Gregg Williams said that "personal reasons" were the factors that determined that they would allow him to miss his first game after playing 71 straight. Bills GM Tom Donahoe emphasized that Brown was not suspended, but "inactive." Rumors have come out of One Bills Drive that Brown was unhappy with Bills offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride and the play calling all season. In fact, one source claimed that Brown confronted Gilbride during the week. Brown did not practice all week with the Bills and said on his radio show early in the week that it would have been hard for him to get motivated playing the last game of the season. This comes at a time when the Bills needed some final stand, one last show of support for not only their coach, who is likely to get fired next week, but also for pride. What Brown did to the Bills and his teammates was to abandon ship. He had enough of the coaching staff and decided to make a statement to everyone by quitting on the team. Brown, who was voted to the Pro Bowl for the 8th straight year, may have played his last game in a Bills uniform last week against Miami.

Quit on the team before the last game of the 2003 season. !@#$ him too.

That's worse than Ruben Brown, !@#$ him.

Ugh. Oh well, great stream today, flawless for a CBS game.

Sounds good to me. Start Teller at LG, move Vlad back to RG, and cut Miller.

Welcome home EJ!

Exactly.

Well, no one watched the Saints before Drew Brees arrived, so I’m not too surprised.

Most fans were also fine with it since he quit on the team at the end of the 2003 season (arguably the worst year of the drought)... !@#$ him. I also agree that he made critical mistakes at the absolute worst times.

No, I meant Rodgers would not make my top 10 all-time. Even if Rodgers was having a big year, I still would take rather have had Brady (with the one exception being the Matt Cassel season).

Maybe it's just me, but I have never thought Rodgers was better than Brady. I'm not sure if he would make my top 10.

No, the great Jeremy Kerley.
