Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 3 hours ago, DKBills25 said: Hey bills fans I had another question pop up in my head and I wanted to read what you guys would say or think would happen if we started 0-6. Also I defiantly do not want us to go 0-6 and I’m also very hopeful for the season still with Allen starting but if we do start 0-6 what happens ? Do we keep Allen in ? Do we fire someone if the problems are obvious offensive or defensive? Certain players traded ? Let me know what you think hoping that this doesn’t happen GO BILLS !! As I’ve said elsewhere IMO it matters how they go 0-16, not just 0-6 If the team plays hard and seems well prepared and well disciplined, but just doesn’t have the talent or catches a few bad breaks, I think it’s steady as she goes. I think the Pegulas are prepared to be patient if they feel confident they’ve got the right coach and GM in the seats. If the team shows a veritable Smorgasbord of Suckitude as last weekend with schemes that are being systematically exploited, and lead them to believe that they don’t have the right guys, who knows? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGun12TD Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 I think owners, coaches and all know exactly what this team would be...NOT GOOD! Trust the process! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Process Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Of course it depends on the reason for 0-6. One example.....the play calling does not maximize the talent we have. Consider replacing OC. So many scenarios....so little time. 10 minutes ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: As I’ve said elsewhere IMO it matters how they go 0-16, not just 0-6 If the team plays hard and seems well prepared and well disciplined, but just doesn’t have the talent or catches a few bad breaks, I think it’s steady as she goes.

The Steelers and Browns have proven we can start 0-5-1, 0-4-2, 0-3-3, 0-2-4, 0-1-5, 1-4-1, 1-3-2, 1-2-3, 1-1-4, 2-3-1, 2-2-2, 2-1-3, 3-2-1, 3-1-2, or 4-1-1. We should have a plan for all scenarios and if the Pegulas aren't questioning McD about all contingencies every day we are in trouble. For example, no team that has started 3-1-2 has ever made the playoffs. Ever. If that is our start then I say we tank. Thank God we're not in danger of a 3-1-2 or 4-1-1 start. We can't handle another "curse!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 They SHOULD sell every player that is Not part of the future and has value at the deadline. McCoy Clay Hughes Kyle Lorax etc etc etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 I believe regardless of the outcome. This season, the Pegulas have learned to have continuity, and will keep Beane and McD. I bet they get a total of four years to make this team successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoTier Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 1 hour ago, oldmanfan said: Baltimore hired Harbaugh with no HC experience, and when Ozzie took over he had never been a GM. Just as one example. You're very good at twisting what critics of the Bills say when you can't refute them honestly with facts. What I wrote was, "The most NFL successful teams don't hire inexperience HCs, give them control of personnel, and then hire inexperienced GMs without experience in managing personnel to do their bidding." Comparing what the Ravens did to the Bills are doing is a f$#&ing joke. In fact, it is the exact opposite, which may be why the Ravens have won 2 SBs and fielded playoff teams with regularity while the Bills missed the playoffs for 17 straight years in that same time span. FYI... Ozzie Newsome was the VP of Player Personnel (defacto GM) back in 2000 when the Ravens won their very first Super Bowl. John Harbaugh wasn't hired as Baltimore's HC until 2008, and he was not given control of player personnel. That remains squarely in the hands of Ozzie Newsome, who is retiring after this season ... and he'll be succeeded by his assistant GM next year. The Ravens (formerly the Cleveland Browns) has never had the HC in charge of player personnel, and have gone 190-162 with 2 Super Bowl wins in the 22 years since they moved to Baltimore. Apparently former owner, the late Art Modell, learned his lesson about giving personnel control to HCs after his experience with Bill Belichick (36-44, 1 playoff appearance in 5 seasons) as defacto GM during the Browns (later Ravens) last years in Cleveland. Modell promoted Newsome from Director of Pro Personnel with the move to Baltimore, and there he's been ever since while the Ravens have gone through three coaching regimes: Ted Marchibroda (3 years), Brian Billick (9 years) and John Harbaugh (10 years). Billick was fired IIRC because his teams didn't perform up to snuff despite a SB win, and rumors persist in the NFL that Harbaugh will get the axe if his team doesn't at least make the playoffs this year. How is that anything like the Pegulas hiring McDermott, a rookie HC and giving him control of player personnel, and then hiring Beane, who was in charge of logistics or facilities or whatever as assistant GM in Carolina, to do McDermott's bidding?
