San Diego Bills Fan Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 If by the grace of God the Bills end up 8-8 will Ralph still make a coaching change? If not what does he need to save his Job? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VJ91 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 If by the grace of God the Bills end up 8-8 will Ralph still make a coaching change? If not what does he need to save his Job? No one can speak intelligently on Ralph Wilson's mind. In another thread today it seems Vic Carucci has heard some rumblings from One Bills Drive that Ralph may be willing to bring in a high profile type GM, who would fire Jauron instantly if Ralph left Dick hanging. But I really don't think Jauron needs to worry about coaching here next season. Unless his Bills go 7-1-0 and make the playoffs, he's gone. 8-8-0 won't get it done. I don't think he stays even if the Bills go 6-2-0 and finish 9-7-0 out of the playoffs. It's time to get on with it, and ship Dick and his entire staff out of here. And oh by the way, I can't see this team even getting up to another 7-9-0. I predicit them to go out with a whimper and finish up 4-12-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Darin Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I can't see any circumstances short of the playoffs/a win in the playoffs that keeps this group around. Of course, I put their return last offseason at about 10%, so common sense at OBD is in pretty short supply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamrock Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 If by the grace of God the Bills end up 8-8 will Ralph still make a coaching change? If not what does he need to save his Job? 3-5 at the half and he runs a 5-3 2nd half team into 8-8 and can PR his way by "youth", "injuries" and the 'ol "it's hard to win in the NFL" to be back in 2010. I was suprised as the next to see the Berlin wall fall in '89, but will Ralph eat the remaining years of that contract by keeping Dick, i'd be suprised again, i guess.

Conch Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 If DJ is the coach next year RW will bear the responsibility for the largest mass suicide ever recorded. I don't think he is willing to do that, not even at his age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welcome To Pegulavilla Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 The best way to handle the Jauron situation and a scenario that could very well happen: Tell Jauron we want to hire a new head coach next season but we want to make u defensive coordinator. Doing this would force Jauron to quit to avoid embarrassment and in the process save RW from having to buyout Jaurons contract, but if he doesn't quit and agrees to the demotion it wouldn't be so bad because Jauron is actually a decent Def Coordinator. Keep in mind he has worked wonders with the D considering all the injuries they've had and he's had success as DC in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grog Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I don't see Ralph firing Dick with two years still remaining on his contract. I think Dick is coming back regardless of the record this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steely Dan Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 If by the grace of God the Bills end up 8-8 will Ralph still make a coaching change? If not what does he need to save his Job? IMO, there is no way he stays unless he makes it to the championship game. Public opinion is so against Jauron that even one playoff win wouldn't save him, at least I hope so.

I wouldn't hire Jauron as a position coach much less a defensive coordinator. IMO he had one decent year with the Jags as a DC, that's it. Considering his laughable coaching skills and instincts, Jauron has to have had the luckiest coaching career ever. You would seriously have him as our defensive coordinator? I'd rather he had a life-time ban from Ralph Wilson Stadium. The countdown has begun, six games till the light of dawn comes for Buffalo Bills fans.

TC in St. Louis Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I can't see them winning another game. I can't watch them any more. I have been a fan since like 1965, and this is the worst I've ever felt about the team. They've rendered the offense impotent. Edwards is a better player than this offense allows. Lynch, Jackson, Evans, Owens, Reed....I guess the OL just blows. But the offensive game plan has all the energy of a Ben Stein lecture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notwoz Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 there is no way that the Bills go 8-8. But that doesn't mean we don't get Dicked again next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I blieve contracts specify the particular job entailed, otherwise every owner in football would do that. For sure Al Davis would have tried it along time ago.

zazie Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Come on! Even Jauron doesn't believe the Bills have a snowball's chance in hell to make it to 8 and 8. What comes out of all of DJs press conferences this year is that he KNOWS and ACKNOWLEDGES that he sucks. It is really incredible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 I think that what the organization said this offseason- playoffs or bust- is still the gold standard. If Jauron fails to make the playoffs this season, he will be gone. Now- my prayer is for what Carucci was just saying- that being that if the Bills fail to make the playoffs this season it will also mean wholesale changes to the roster, coaching staff, AND at the position of GM and front office. Then, and only then, will this team begin to improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
