"I'd like to thank the Bills organization for the opportunity they gave me and wish them all the best in the future." An added bonus would be: "Also, I'm looking forward to simultaneously coach the other 3 afc east teams for the next 10 years." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hossage Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 “I don't think it makes any sense for me to predict where anything's going. We all know things are not predictable.” “With Willis and our young right tackle Jason, we feel like we can help our quarterbacks mature, make the game a little easier for them, if we can run the ball successfully, play-action pass, keep some people really honest and fearful of what we're going to do running the football.” 'You also know that young men make errors in judgment, so you have to help them correct it and learn from it and mature from it and hope people don’t destroy their lives by some silly mistake. You hope they limit their mistakes to ones that don’t hurt other people badly and determine their lives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLZFAN4LIFE Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 This is an excerpt from an interview Dick did prior to the 11/09/08 20-10 loss to the Pats: At the time we had lost 3 of 4 after a 4-0 start. Q: Has the tone of this game changed at all? Early in the season it looked like this might be a statement game, but now is it more about survival? DJ: I understand the question, but I've never looked at it that way. First of all, I've never looked nine games into the season when the season starts. We truly are a group that tries to take it one week at a time. We don't necessarily divide our season into any sort of quarters or any of that stuff. We divide it into sixteenths because every one is so critical. You know every one of them. We try to prepare the same certainly, because I don't know how else you do it. If you're not preparing your best or think you're preparing your best every week, the odds are you'll never be in it for the whole year. The difference is, of course, our division: we have ancient rivalries, we know each other, we know about each other, personnel, they're familiar with us. We've been struggling in the division for a long time, so right now our division is so tightly packed that again, every game becomes very, very critical and this is a division game against a team that has dominated the division for so long. Q: You mentioned the Patriots have dominated the division, but it seems like the Bills and other teams have closed the gap a little. What do you attribute that to? DJ: I don't. I don't think about it in terms like that. I think about it in terms of where it is, you know, where we are right now and what we're going into, and so I haven't spent any time thinking really about why we're all grouped like we are. I like our division; I have a lot of respect for everybody in our division. I think probably like every organization, we looked at all of our players through the off season, we looked at what they did in free agency, we looked at what they did in the draft, we felt like everybody had improved. We knew it always seems to be a struggle. And it's a struggle you hope you find yourself in the middle of as opposed to kind of what it's been like for us, anyway, in the past few years kind of looking up. But I don't have any answers for why, I'm just glad we're right in the thick of it. Q: How much, if any, does your nine game losing streak to the Patriots affect this game? DJ: I believe that the fact that they've beaten us and beaten us soundly definitely has an effect. I'm sure it has an effect on them, too, in terms of their confidence in playing us. We just, again, we have to deal with it. We've been on the losing end and as I pointed out, badly, so we've got to try to gain a little ground on these guys. They're awfully good, you know, they're awfully good from top to bottom, organizationally, talent-wise on their team and the way they coach, they really do a good job. Q: Is this losing streak that you've entered into part of the maturation process of a young team as it strives for a higher level? DJ: We are young at some spots on the football team. I've said this all year, I like the character of the team; I like their work ethic. In recent weeks we've played very good opponents, very good opponents who have earned the victories over us. We've made errors in the games, errors that every coach and every team talks about: we turned the ball over too many times and we gave up too many big plays to win the football games. But I'm always proud of the way our guys fight. They stay in it. They don't lose heart. They disappoint themselves, we all get disappointed and then we go back to work and see if we can improve. We know that if we don't play our best game this week, we don't have much of a chance. We can't turn the ball over, we can't give up the big plays and think we can beat a team of this talent level and history; they (the patriots) have a history of winning. These answers exemplify Dick Jauron. It is hand-wringing and excuse making at its finest. And what is Dick's solution? To hope and try. How about just a little moxie or confidence or determination? Is that too much to ask from a leader of men? This has got to be one of the most wishy washy coaches in the history of the NFL. No wonder this guy consistently pumps out sub-.500 teams. His departure from Buffalo can't come soon enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramius Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 I personally prefer the old, "Well, we'd like to be 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 0, but thats obviously not the case. We're 5 and 6, 7, 8, 9 and we are going to have to deal with that." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphean Bills Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 "I think we have our QB. Um, no, I mean, I believe Trent will be a good QB." How about this pressure application from the latest ESPN color analyst? "The Buffalo Bills. How can you not be excited? Has any team ever had a better receiving corps?" Translation: if they can't move the ball this year, I'm available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
