Bangarang Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 He’s probably a better GM than HC.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not on Deshaun Watson - even if there was a GM in place, today’s move simply cements what was always true: O’Brien calls the shots. So if O'Brien gets credit for calling the shots on drafting Watson, does he get blame for Brock Osweiler? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I'm happy for him!! Well actually happy as a Bills fan as good chance they will be going down in flames with him running the show. No 1st round pick this year I believe and also traded away another pick too?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njbuff Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 I can’t believe the Bills ever lost to that team. What an eye-gauging (spelling) moment that was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Well, at least we don’t need to worry about them in the future. What a dumb move, but it’s their owner’s to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No! Because the only mistake that keeps on giving is the one you refuse to cut your losses on. In retrospect that "trade" of Osweiler to Cleveland was brilliant. Look, here's the point I'm trying to make on O'Brien: - made the playoffs in 4 out of 6 years - won a game in the playoffs in a couple of those years If McDermott's Bills make the playoffs in the next 2 seasons and actually win a game in each, we'll be applauding his contract extension.

stuvian Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I guess getting to the 2nd round bought him a little more time and clout. Who gets credit for the Deshaun Watson pick? The only good coach and GM was Jimmy Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted January 29, 2020 Author Share Posted January 29, 2020 With their GM search failing to gain traction, The Astros have named Bill O’Brien as GM effective immediately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
