rsxfirefighter Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Here's to Bill Polian! Heck of a great GM, deserves another Super Bowl win! The day he left buffalo, the should have arrested him at the airport because he stole our Mojo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewildrabbit Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 The day he left buffalo, the should have arrested him at the airport because he stole our Mojo... He WAS the mojo, this team hasn't been even remotely close to what it was with him as GM. Now look at the Colts and what they have done since he has been GM / pres, 10+ years of winning. I'll bet he didn't need to fight tooth fang and claw with anyone at Indy to build that team, like he had to do in Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying you're trying to prove anything. I have no reason not to believe you. I believe most everyone on this board when they say they know or have met someone like Polian...why shouldn't I?

The Polian firing had more to do with the constant battling with Jeff Littman over expenditures for players. The tight owner sided with his finance man over the football man. No surprise there.

The tight owner sided with his finance man over the football man. No surprise there. Which is my only concern with the new Bills regime. I'm happy with Nix, happy Guy is finally gone, and am waiting to hear what happens with Modrak. I even feel that the Brandon move to the top of it all, is a good move. The only question for me is that Overdorf is still holding the purse strings, and there is a consensus among some 'in the know' that it was Overdorf who was in control with player contracts, letting key free agents walk (Williams, Winfield, Fletcher), and signing bargain, garbage players (Dockery, Walker, Tripplett, Royal) and keeping the Bills in the mediocre department for some time. With Brandon now at the top of the hierarchy, how does this affect Overdorf's say in it all? Will Brandon have final say and control over Overdorf, or as evidenced this past decade, will Overdorf still have the ear (and favor) of Ralph?

He's been behind some garbage moves by this team for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catholic Guilt Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Don't forget former Buffalo Bills Frank Reich and Pete Metzelaars on the Indy coaching staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cale Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Anyone remember Wade Phillips saying he slammed his fist on the table of the "financial guys" when they said he had to let Ted Washington go? He said something to the effect of "Ted Washington can still play. As long as I am coach here he has a job." And I think that was the year the let some team stalwarts like Thurman Thomas go. God I miss Wade. C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Wright's Mullet Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Thank GOD we still have Jeffrey Littman and NOT Bill Polian. Keep counting those beans Jeffrey: Count! Count! Count!
