Quotes like this don't inspire hope...

everyone thought Wanny was up in the box However, Wanny just told everyone that and stayed home instead His cell phone died and he was unable to call in any adjustments -
The defensive scheme is the problem If the offense is throwing short passes with short drops, the CBs have to be brougt up to elimimate the easy short pass - so the DL has a chance Wannstadt is the problem

If this continues does Gailey survive the year?

Ralph should have stuck to his guns and kept Jauron 7-9 is looking pretty good Chan is doing less with more talent than Jauron had -
Dave Wannstedt 2012-2013 Thread
spartacus replied to BuffaloBillsForever's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Don't worry Chan is just in pre-season mode because the batteries in his calendar died Everyone knows that pre-season does not matter With some new batteries, Chan will quickly flip the switch and actually prepare the team for the regular season. (Hopefully, the batteries are not on back order.) Wannstadt was hired because he is buds with Chan Gailey Fortunately he had some experience as an NFL coach, which was a big step up from most of Chan's other hires too bad, Dave has not coached a successful defense in the NFL in a very long time -
revisionist history indeed Norwood was money inside 40 yards outside of that, he struggled, especially on grass, because he did not have a strong leg It is well known that he overcompensated to get the distance in the SB because of his weak leg Polian knew he needed a better kicker, but there was no free agency like there is now. He did steal Steve Cristie the first chance he got, though When Cristie is kicking 59 yarders and Norwood is struggling from beyond the 40 - there is a significant disadvantage

agree that Walt Corey was a boob -total fail by Marv to not fire that him however, Norwood's range was 40 yards any kick over that was an adventure

tell your dad he is nuts to have any of his kids on his car insurance irresponsible kids and the related pending liability from stupid acts should be on their own -
Gailey confirms that roster is not set
spartacus replied to Mike in Syracuse's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
good to know that the Bills will again be saved by someone claimed off the street -
Deon Branch or Jabar Gafney

Who would you want off waivers?

Gafney, Stallworth -
Nix has had eye on Jackson for a while

Modrak probably had him rated higher than Buddy we all know the bad personnel decisions were his fault -
Chan Gailey won't rule out keeping 4 quarterbacks
spartacus replied to HOUSE's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
why keep Thigpen. Fitz got hurt last year and they still kept TT nailed to the bench unless the phantom rib injury was really just a smoke screen to cover up some really questionable QB play - which seems to be continuing this year -
Bills 2010 Draft... really terrible
spartacus replied to HeHateMe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
actually the Pats area a notoriously bad drafting team BB makes it up in astute free agent signings and trades why not look at the draft history from GB or Pitts or Balt -
Bills 2010 Draft... really terrible
spartacus replied to HeHateMe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
you are basing your entire argument on bogus info it does not take 3.5 months to build a draft board the research may take a while -but the board is put together in a month or 2 while meeting with all of the scouts. if Nix could not handle this, then he has no business being the GM which is probably the case, since his entire work history was as a scout - with no responsibility for actually making the picks and building a roster. 2010 was just a do over while Buddy learned the ropes -

always good to have the company shill put out some mindless propaganda to try and minimize the actual panic and desperation driving the trade -
Fitz may know the offense - but his inability to direct the football to his intended location will be his undoing. The locker room will quickly rally around anyone who can actually deliver the ball A lot of losses and incompletions will lose that trust pretty quickly Chan is making the offense so difficult to comprehend that Fitz is the only who fully understands it. His WRs are lost and now constantly going to the "wrong" place From the looks of it, the OL is just as lost and confused. good thing we have the pre-seaon to work out the kinks

Bills 2010 Draft... really terrible
spartacus replied to HeHateMe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I know this may be a tough concept to handle but since Nix was appointed GM - 1. he could have used all of Modrak's data and molded his own draft board. 2. since he was GM, he could have actually stood tall and made the picks- instead of hiding behind Modrak Either he screwed the picks or he screwed up letting Modrak make the picks He was GM - the draft is on him -

spartacus replied to HeHateMe's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Nix is an NFL talent guy with over 50 years of experience he was brought in specifically because the Bills have been inept under Modrak in drafting playmakers and quality starters yet - he still allowed Modrak to run the draft after he had 3.5 months with the Bills Buddy is either really bad on picking players (his draft sucked) or he is really bad at picking employees (letting the inept Modrak run the draft) - based on what Chan and his staff has not accomplished - it may be the latter still waiting for Chan for get close to Dick's win count -
they would have to get there for the 1st time much easier to stage the spreading of ashes on the Moon in a movie studio - just like how they "landed" on the Moon the first time

bigger question is - for a team with no TE for the last decade, why didn't that talent expert Buddy draft Hernandez in the 4th round -
Bills to acquire Tarvaris Jackson

if the Bills were convinced Thigpen sucked last year, maybe they could have addressed QB in the draft - with someone like Russell Wilson -

who's bitching about the backup Fitz is the problem and Jackson will probably be starting before long could be an upgrade -

nobody is happy with Fitz in pre-season probably cause those "broken ribs" still haven't healed Jackson may be pushing Fitz before long
