Reed83HOF Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Comment from Peter King on Dan Patrick show: Ralph is 91 and sick of crap w/ his team. Sometmes in Ralph's world you make a decision because you can't stand where you are anymore. First thing they need to decide is what they want to be - how much power/$$ do you want to give head coach. This is a very interesting point. With Ralph knowing that he is near his end, he wasted this decade and he does say he wants to bring a SB to Buffalo, maybe he actually ponies up and and goes for it...

Brand J Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 BUT BILL WALSH LIKED TRENT! HE IS THE ANSWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Those comments in your signature are absolutely hilarious! If I were eating cereal, I would've snorted milk outta my nose, haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOKBILLS Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 He played good until he got destroyed in Arizona...Hasn't been the same since...Could see some cautious optimism going into this season as he had the off season to recover. You hope the guy was able to get it straight...but well you know...sometimes, you buy a house... And remember the Pass Trent threw on the Play he got nailed vs. Arizona? Up to that point he was looking darn good...Since then things have changed dramatically for the worse...I did not want to believe it last year but it's true...He's a different Player...

Beebe's Kid Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 waiting for the "Jim Kelly for offensive coordinator" comment... Fools! Why would you want a guy that led one of the most explosive offenses in history associated with play calling? We have the guy that held the esteemed positions of holding the clipboard for Rob Johnson, and Kelly Holcomb!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBill Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Jim the HOF QB and Best in Bills history is saying Trent isn't the QB we need to get where we want to go. What else needs to be said? His lack of support for Trent speaks very loudly. You would have to believe Jim and AVP have had more than a few conversations about this. Guess it pulls off the table all of the excuses about the line has sucked etc. I guess we get to look forward to the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acantha Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Jim the HOF QB and Best in Bills history is saying Trent isn't the QB we need to get where we want to go. What else needs to be said? Jim's no better than the average fan at this. Before the season and last year he said he really liked TE and thought he had what it took to be a great QB.

Mr. WEO Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Ralph is a stubborn old man, take the group public and pressuring Ralph will defintaely cause him to make sure the team doesn't get sold to that group. JK knows Ralph and is playing the game the right way. This type of thinking makes no sense. Everyone here claims Ralph's "estate" will sell the team to the highest bidder. So how will Ol' Ralphie "make sure the team doesn't get sold to that group"? Since has shown no interest in trying to secure the future of the team while he's alive (by selling now or long ago), why on earth would you believe he cares what happens after he's dead??? How many buyers do you think will be bidding for this team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many buyers do you think will be bidding for this team? It's actually kind of easy...he can put in his will Well let's see there are only 32 of these franchises available and it is the biggest sport there is...LA is looking for a team..I bet there would be quite a few... As far as thinking that makes no sense...why don't you try looking in the mirror??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Bills fan Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 i also like his support behind TO.....many here and even more on the outside pin the failures on TO....like JK said, he is being completely under utilized, through ineptness at the QB spot or Ineptness at the play calling spot.....TO is a threat and we are missing out on that..... I agree wholeheartedly on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Jim is on WGR now.... basically he thinks Ralph and Russ should bring in a name guy who has been there / done that. Some of Jim's take... -Don't take another chance on a newbie. - Ralph is getting old, swallowed a big contract and just needs to bite the bullet and pay a big name - Trent is a nice guy, he likes Trent but the Bills need to move on from him. - Russ Brandon is very frustrated and wants to do what's right for the fans and the city. He wants a winner and knows what it takes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calbear Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I find it interesting (and somewhat disturbing) that Jim thinks the Russ Brandon should stay (at least that's what I get from this comment). I hope to God that Jim isn't in Ralph's ear on this one. Russ SHOULD stay. He's not the one making the decisions on the player/personnel side. As long as he sticks to the business-side, I am psyched for him to stay. The most important thing we need to keep the Bills in Buffalo is to maximize revenues - both at 1BD and away from it. Russ has done a great job of keeping the franchise viable. I agree with the other posts - Brandon knows that his job is way easier when the fans buy in, and we all want a vet with a proven track record. Now - if he can convince RW of that is another story...

ajzepp Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Also - Buffalo will have a tough time getting players just because it is Buffalo. Not winning championships, 'freezng cold all the time" etc. - not a place a lot of players are going to want to go. "Aside from wings - it's a tough sell" Always have had a problem with these kind of comments. Do I think Buffalo is Miami or LA? No. But players not coming to Buffalo has 0 to do with the weather. That is just a dumbass comment. Players go to Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Green Bay, and Indianapolis. None of these cities are huge markets, they are all small cities, 2 of the cities play in extremely cold weather, 2 of these cities are dying fast, they all have extremely loyal fanbases..... but the biggest thing they have in common is they WIN. If you win, you could play anywhere. Just look at the Pats. The Pats were in a huge market for football and it wasn't until they produced a winning team that players sought out going there. Dumb comment from Mort. I agree with this. I don't why it's always Buffalo that gets singled out with the "it's cold all the time there" stuff. To your list I'll add Cleveland, Minnesota and Denver. It's fuggin cold as hell in these places, too....so what?!! Besides, a lot of these guys live in other places and are only really in town during the season. In July and August, Buffalo is hot just like it is anywhere else. From September thru the beginning of November, you have one of the most BEAUTIFUL places in the country for taking in the Autumn scenery. December and January? Yep, cold as SH*T! But who cares?? You're getting paid millions of dollars and you'll be back home missing out on the worst part of the Buffalo winter anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
