The article says "The team must determine what else a new stadium would be used for and whether Colts fans would come to games at an outdoor stadium when the weather turns cold." Indy fans, afterall, must be coddled…..

Did Bills get a good look at the future?
‘If Sunday’s game was a head-coaching audition for Buffalo, it looks as if Ravens’ defensive coordinator Marvin Lewis will be the Bills’ new boss. The consolation prize figures to go to the Giants’ John Fox, who looms as Cleveland’s next coach. Unless, of course, those roles are reversed.’
Davis to become Browns head coach
Oh, how the tide can shift so quickly…. "Butch Davis, who repeatedly said he had no desire to leave the Univeristy of Miami, resigned today with the Hurricanes to become head coach of the Cleveland Browns."
Coach Lewis Celebrates with Trip to Buffalo
Referring to unnamed sources, the article says the Browns have been talking money in clandestine discussions with Ray Anderson, Lewis’ agent. The Browns are afraid of Lewis turning his back on them and are attempting to attract him with an offer too good to refuse, they say. While common in the NFL, such talks are against league rules.
Tom Donahoe, new president of the Bills, is irate that conversation between the Browns and Anderson could be taking place. He believes Anderson is trying to create a bidding war for Lewis, and he wants no part of it.

Bills’ coaching derby reaches the home stretch
‘Barring a glitch in the process, Bills President and General Manager Tom Donahoe is probably going to bring the name of the man he wants to owner Ralph C. Wilson Jr. some time on Wednesday.’
Levy deserves Hall honour
‘Marv Levy has joined Bud Grant as the only former CFL head coaches to be named to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. They also share a dubious achievement: They are the only head coaches to be in four Super Bowls and lose them all. Not that it’s anything to be ashamed of.’
Cleveland is second stop for Lewis, Fox
‘Lewis will interview today with Buffalo to be the team’s head coach, then visit the Browns tomorrow. New York Giants defensive coordinator John Fox will interview with the Bills tomorrow and the Browns on Wednesday. Lewis is believed to be the leading candidate for both the Bills and the Browns.’
Norwood’s Life Took Wide Right Turn
‘"I had a lot of great seasons in Buffalo. I had many game-winners and went to the Pro Bowl, but this is strongly associated. I certainly don’t well up emotionally as much as I did years ago."’
Lewis, Fox in Line for Coaching Jobs
‘Several league sources said Sunday they expect Lewis to pick Buffalo. Ravens Coach Brian Billick bypassed Cleveland’s head coaching job when he left the Minnesota Vikings to go to Baltimore, and some NFL executives say they expect Billick to steer Lewis away from Browns President Carmen Policy and Director of Football Operations Dwight Clark.’
Redskins Set to Interview Former Bills Coach Phillips
‘Former Buffalo Bills head coach Wade Phillips is scheduled to be in Washington on Monday to interview for the Redskins’ defensive coordinator job.’
Levy had hunch he’d get into Hall
‘"I’ve been surrounded by some wondrous athletes, some great people," he said. "What a group of warriors I coached and I don’t just mean the Hall of Fame stars. They were great fellas with the stoutest of hearts. Win or lose, they were still my guys."’
Bills not about to fight it out to hire Ravens coordinator
‘Barring a change of plans, Donahoe will fly to Baltimore on Monday to meet with Lewis, he told SportsLine.com. Then he hopes to interview Fox, likely in New York on Tuesday.’
