Another Point of View Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 (edited) I am asking you? How do you fix this mess? I am not talking about a series of responses that recommend major trades. The Bills need to weed out the non performers and set a reasonable goal for the season. I waive a few players that gave up on Sunday and move practice players up to the 53 man roster,if they quit I waive them too! I audition new players every week at nearly every position. This sends the right message to the players and fans. This is from the book of Bill Parcells. " If you quit, I will find somebody that won't" I attempt to trade Aaron Maybin today, if there are no takers, I waive him, See Ya! He is not getting any better and he is not even on the field anymore. I am all for patience but at some point you need to dump these guys. Maybin makes big money and he is basically worthless. A VERY BAD SITUATION FOR ANY TEAM. The Bills have got to make changes now before the fans completly abandon the team. Buddy Nix and Chan Gailey have got to do something and I assume they will!

Will it make Ralphy open up his pocket book? Will it make top free agents want to come to Buffalo? Will it make the O line better? They gave their answer last week when they resigned Kelsay...same ol same ol from this POS orgization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody will trade for Maybin. I'd cut him today because it sends a message that if you're not good enough, you're not going to be around, no matter what round & how recently you were drafted. We have to get the loser mentality out of the locker room. I'd cut McCargo today too. What good is a guy who is 0 for 4 in activations on this team unless he's a developmental rookie? When we get a QB and some players other players want to play with, free agents will come here. Just look at the 1990s when top free agents wanted to play with Kelly, Thomas, Reed & Smith.

bladiebla Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 How to fix this? Look at the Dolphins... Saban out, whoop, whoop here comes Cameron to safe the day, some changes in front office and here we go fans... Errr oops 1-15. Following year they turn it around by getting a solid coach and a real complete revamp of their FO, major shake out with the so-so talent and suddenly they have a competitive team.

Maybin has got to show reasonable improvement or he is wasting a roster spot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A VERY BAD SITUATION FOR ANY TEAM. The Bills have got to make changes now before the fans completly abandon the team. For one, if the fans have't abandoned this team yet, they never will, and you know what, Ralph knows that, which is why he doesn't give a crap about winning. Gailey and Nix won't fix this team, these clowns are cheap hires by Ralph, and it shows on sundays. This team is worse than any team that Jauron put on the field, and seems more clueless each week. As bad as this team is, and as bad as Maybin has been, he was a first round pick just a year ago, so it is probably too early to give up on him, since he really isn't much worse than the rest of the team. I would like to see him in tackling drills, maybe using Nix and Gailey as a tackling dummys, so we can get their useless asses out of town.

Another Point of View Posted October 4, 2010 Author Share Posted October 4, 2010 Chan said "no" to Wood benched for performance in his presser. Think he was whitewashing? I have news from a ex beat reporter that says Maybin was yanked again and Woods was not happy on the sidelines. I think Woods in playing at around 80% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freeagentqb Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 I want our offensive minded coach to put Jackson at running back, he won the job last year and is much better than Lynch. Put Spiller in the slot and use him like Welker. Design some new routes for Evans to get the ball in his hands on a regular basis whether it be screens, short slants or quick passes at the snap. Move him around the field to different spots. Ensure he gets the ball regularly, period. Thats a start. Defense needs to go back to 4-3 and send blitzers and put some pressure on the QB. If we get burned, so be it, we need to be competitive. This defense is way too passive... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meathead Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 three things will fix this team: 1. a draft 2. another draft 3. picking up good middle tier free agents oh and maybe another draft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDD Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 What's most discouraging to me is Nix has had one off-season to improve the team and he has failed miserably. He is an alleged draft expert but his first draft looks really bad. I don't think he was able to get even one quality everydown player. Didn't address LT and QB which were the biggest needs. The Bills organization is a dysfunctional inept disgraceful mess. three things will fix this team: 1. a draft 2. another draft 3. picking up good middle tier free agents oh and maybe another draft And you have the confidence this can be done?

John Cocktosten Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 From reports I got at the Stadium, Wood and Maybin were benched. Maybin has got to show reasonable improvement or he is wasting a roster spot! Let's get this straight, Maybin is horrible. I do not need stats to know this, just watch the guy. He has ZERO instincts for the game. That being said, a young LT is not out there. This team doesn't need a message, they need a mission statement!

He would need to start calling running plays more often to begin with, then he has to call running plays that will actually work for a 3-4 yard gain. But before he does that... he will need to coach the O linemen to actually block their opponents and not just whiff over and over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freeagentqb Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 three things will fix this team: 1. a draft 2. another draft 3. picking up good middle tier free agents oh and maybe another draft Unfortunately based on their history, this won't work either because they've shown that they can't draft properly...

larz tex Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 It appears he is still injured, but you make a great point. My experince with Ralph is he is always one step ahead of disaster, however,he is slow to react. I think the offense is progressing. The Jets were a game away from the superbowl last year. They are good. We scored a few points against them. If the defense could have made a stop or two the game would have been closer. The defense was just the way the coaches drew it up. You block this guy and he blocks that guy and we run through the hole, oh wait, that is the jets talking. Our defense played just the way the jets coaches drew up the plays. Even better than tackling dummies. Good job Chan and Edwards. Where is Fewell when we need him. Some think a few drafts will fix this team? Yeah, we need more witners, Mccargo's, and Maybins. A new scouting dept would help too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBaumer Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 The thing that bothers me most (by a mile) is the signing of Kelsay. This just goes to show they STILL have no idea what is going on and are clueless when it comes to talent evaluation. If this order came from Ralph, then I think you know the answer as to when things will change..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
