sobaboy Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Over the years I have found that Larry Felser has been right more than wrong. If he believes it is Schotty, I believe it is probably a done deal. A few years ago Larry implied Wilson was going to fire Wade Phillips when no one else thought he would. Unfortunately Larry was dead on. By the way I can’t stand Sully, won’t read him, won’t listen to him, he is just a bag of hot air, absolutely has no redeeming qualities as a journalist. It is too bad the News as lowered them selves to that level! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Blizzard Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 http://www.buffalonews.com/opinion/columns...ory/917865.html Marty would be a great hire, and maybe a better fit than Cowher. The guy has had success everywhere he has coached, and the lack of success in the playoffs doesn't bother me; the teams that beat Marty's typically WERE the better teams.

papazoid Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 HERE IS THE LATEST INFO: it comes from the guy who is putting up the Cowher billboard, and if he is to be believed, it's not good if your in the Cowher crowd. essentially he is stating that he has talked to Schefter himself.....and that Schefter is staking his own reputation on the fact that BILL COWHER IS NOT COMING : http://www.buffalosportsdaily.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Its time to move on, if Cowher wanted to be here he would have accepted and starting to build the staff as well as reviewing film on players. I really like the Marty Idea since Marty has proven he can build teams and if son Brian comes along could build foundation for the future. Larry and Ralph are about the same age(kidding) but Larry has been covering the Bills forever so I respect that input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papazoid Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 Brian may not give Bills a chance Jets BlogBy MARK CANNIZZARO NY POST Last Updated: 6:59 AM, January 13, 2010 Posted: 2:19 AM, January 13, 2010 It was unclear as of yesterday if Jets offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer was going to interview with the Bills this week for their vacant head coaching position. According to two NFL sources, there's some question if Schottenheimer will interview with the Bills at all, despite the fact that Buffalo has asked the Jets for permission to speak to him. "I wouldn't be surprised if he says, 'Thanks, but no thanks,' " to the Bills, one source told The Post yesterday. Schottenheimer, who has interviewed with the Dolphins, Ravens and Jets for head-coaching jobs, said last week he was happier than he's ever been at a job working under Rex Ryan. He was unavailable for comment yesterday but is scheduled to speak today. The Bills are allowed, by NFL rule, to speak to Schottenheimer this week, but if they don't they likely would have to wait until after the Jets' season. One player hoping Schottenheimer stays is Mark Sanchez, calling him "instrumental" in his development. "He's taught me so much about playing in this league," Sanchez said. "I think these last couple of weeks we've really started to grow together and this offense has really started working, so we've found a little bit of a formula. It's been a great relationship all year. "It's difficult to think about [schottenheimer leaving], but I try not to. You kind of block it out and keep playing and we'll cross that bridge when we need to." http://www.nypost.com/p/sports/jets/brian_...7GAkJinNeisDXZP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the QB development aspect - been a while here in Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Right now I would go with the Shotty Duo, Brian has proven he knows how to coach young QBs and Marty has been a winner, Marty can help shape the future and build the team up and get us that SB back with the team he won AFL championships with.

If true, that really sucks! If we could have had Marty and Brian I would have felt good about this team. I would love to know what Ralph's hang up with Marty is. Ralph is the problem.
