San Jose Bills Fan Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 1.) the firing of John Guy and Tom Modrak2.) the hiring of a real, PROVEN, football GM 3.) letting the GM hire whomever he wants to coach. Those are my top 3. Been saying this for over two weeks now. I have my favorites as far as coaches go but first things first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davefan66 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 A guy who got lucky with that #12 pick to pick #7,his franchise QB...A guy who was going to cut Jerome Bettis before Bettis faked a injury enroute to a super bowl. A guy who got lucky with an undrafted FA Running Back. Let us not get carried away...Bill Cowher has made many personnel blunders.....He still would need a good VP of Operations guy like a Kevin Colbert to succeed.... What Cowher brings to the team as a coach is ENERGY....He has a tough camp and prepares his team mentally for the game.... Lucky to pick #7? Then I guess the Vikings were lucky to pick #28. Bettis? He may have been an emotional spark, but 368 regular season yards and 43 in the SB doesn't mean without him they would not have won. All personnel guys make mistakes. It was quoted on 97 Rock this morning that some NFL guy said if you hit .400 on your personnel decisions, you've done well. Cowher would bring energy to this club, game management skills, good personnel decisions and let's not forget other players in the league would want to play for him when it comes to FA. The end all is, if Ralph doesn't spend the money, we could have the very best coach at every position and it wouldn't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Blizzard Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 No one has mentioned Wayne Fontes yet?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRT88 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Do we already have our coach? Maybe the Bills should search for a great personel guy and keep Ferrell. He's firey and the guys seem to play hard. I'm sure we could do worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleaky72 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Ahem Perry Fewell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekJ Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Ahem Perry Fewell It has only been two games but Perry clearly is getting more out of the same players than Dick did. If the team continues to improve and play hard, I think he would merit serious consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Doug Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 I would accept Fewell, but only if a legit GM was hired that accepted him as well. And also, they would have to change the defensive scheme and probably target a legit OC (sorry, but AVP needs to go back to being QB coach - we're not going to have a TO next year) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsWatch Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 1.) the firing of John Guy and Tom Modrak2.) the hiring of a real, PROVEN, football GM 3.) letting the GM hire whomever he wants to coach. Those are my top 3. You have it in wrong order: 1.) the hiring of a real, PROVEN, football President capable of being GM 2.) Let GM determine if keeping, demand for resignation, firing, or reassignment of Russ Brandon, John Guy and Tom Modrak is necessary. Let the person in charge make the call if you are putting them in charge. 3.) Letting the GM hire whomever he wants to coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
