BF_in_Indiana Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 The biggest problem with the Bills organization is that they refuse to change. Donahoe refuses to shake things up when there is a problem. It was obvious last year that Williams should have been gone durring the bye week. Would we have made the playoffs?? No, but I think the team would have played better in the second half of the season. We have refused to pay big money to bring in a head coach that we know could get the job done like a Joe Gibbs (I know he wouldn't have come here) or someone like that. We keep training coaches on the job while our performance continues to suck. The Bledsoe situation is another thing. He would have been benched in the 3rd quarter of that game by a lot of coaches. Yet he continued to take sacks and suck up the joint and we still lost. Refusal to change is killing this organization and it starts at the top with Old Whitey. The guy just can't admit he made a mistake on things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 He would have been benched in the 3rd quarter of that game by a lot of coaches. If by coaches you actually mean "morons," then yes, you are right, the morons would have benched him by then. They SHOULD have benched him right after he blew the coverage on Gannon's bomb for the TD. Or they should have benched him everytime he committed a holding penalty during kick returns. Or they should have benched him after he couldn't punch the ball in on fourth and one. That's what a moron does. He benches the person who is not solely and completely responsible for losing.

Typical TBD Guy Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Refusal to change is killing this organization and it starts at the top with Old Whitey. 41513[/snapback] Or maybe all the way up to Mr. Wilson himself. He's the one who's been the penny-pincher with the head coaching job. And he's the one who was pressing TD to bring in Bledsoe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care if Drew is making 8 million a year. If Drew can't get us into the end zone then Shane Mathews ought to get his shot. The same thing with Travis. If Travis isn't doing the job, then where is Willis???? I want the guys in there that can get the W for this team. Same thing with the coach. As far as your post Paco, I never said it was all Bledsoes fault, but I said he should have been benched at some point in that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
