notwoz Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Wrong. Shanahan and Allen went out and got McNabb this offseason. That's correct, but my point is that Shanahan has McNabb (and a more talented team in general) and we don't. However, he does have Haynesworth, but that's another thread.

UpperDeck Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Wrong. Shanahan and Allen went out and got McNabb this offseason. We tried to get McNabb but, like Shanahan, he didn't want to come here. Its a bit of a catch-22. We have such a bad organization we can't get good FA's and coaches. And we can't get better BECAUSE we can't get them. We're going to have to get out of this mainly through the draft and hopefully Nix and Gailey have what it takes. Once (if) we get back to a winning organization, picking up some of those good players and coaches will get easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewildrabbit Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Wrong. Shanahan and Allen went out and got McNabb this offseason. Along with Trent Willams who many on this board said would fail big time, yea he single blocked blocked Ware like a pro bowler...wish the Bills had a fail LT like Williams  along with Jammal Brown who they got from the Saints for a 3rd round pick and he started and played the whole game, the Bills didn't even try for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember that little cry baby Eli Manning refused to play in San Diego because Daddy said so? Or Jim Kelly who chose the UFL over Buffalo? After what this team/town has done to Losman, McGahee, Lynch most likely and Edwards, soon the young guys are gonna start demanding unrealistic contracts to play here. At least that's what could happen, but I think the kids are so jacked to get paid, they shouldn't care where they play.

Didn't Elway refuse to play for the then-Baltimore Colts and forced them to trade him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaGimp Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 The Bills don't need good players. It's hard to get good players in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
