I am also siding with beer and ryan on this one. Positing that Vince Young was happy to get be unemployed because of the Bills situation is patently absurd considering the well documented financial problems that VY is currently facing.

Your post is pretty dismal... If you are going to say that someone's coaching records is dismal, back it up with facts or stats. I did a quick scan of Wanny's coaching record and find that really only his Chicago stint can be rated as dismal with a 41-57 record that included one playoff appearance. At Pitt, his record was 42-31 with 3 bowl appearances. At Miami, his record was also 42-31, with playoff appearances during two seasons. Winning records do not equal "dismal".

Where did I ever say that Gailey was a good coach or had good people skills lol? My point is that comparing the results on the Niners vs Bill in terms of Win-Loss record is a faulty analysis. The Niners and Bills were not equal teams when the new coaching regimes took over. As for your McCarthy worship... If we took away Rodgers and put in Brian Brohm, would we still get the same magical results becaus of McCarthy's godlike coaching abilities? I don't think so.

I can't view that complete article. But am curious what kind of objective criteria Jaws uses to rank QBs. Fitz's QBR probably doesnt put him in the bottom 3 QBs. Seems like the ranking is more of a gut feel type exercise?

How many players from the singletary era are starters today on the niners vs the numbers of bills starters from the jauron era? I believe it's something like a 2 to 1 ratio? singletary was not a good head coach. That's why the niners underachieved. Almost the same thing can be said about the chargers. Their considerable talent is wasted by the nov turner regime.

You really miss the point of my post. I never said anything about the Bills having a better coach or management. I just said that comparing Win vs Loss like the article that the OP references is very misleading because the Niners already had a solid team there. The Bills did not have a solid team when Nix/ Gailey took over. They still aren't right now. Now for some of your arguments... In 2009 for the Bills , Lynch averaged 3.8 ypc over 13 games. In 2010 for the Seahawks, Lynch averaged 3.5 ypc over 12 games. Frank Gore averaged 4.9 ypc in 2009 and 4.2 ypc in 2010 for the Niners. Marshawn was our featured back till he was traded in 2010. Do you still want to say that Marshawn constituted a good running game? No one is afraid of a running back who requires a million carries to get to 1000 yards. And that is why Marshawn was trade bait (his off the field problems also didnt help of course) On defense, according to nfl.com , the Niners were 13th in overall defense for 2010 (the year before Harbaugh took over) . In 2009 (the year before Gailey took over), the Bills were 19th in overall defense. 13th is decent. 19th is not.

To be fair to Gailey, this is not quite an apples to apples comparison. Harbaugh inherited a very good team in terms of talent. San Fran already had a good defense and a solid running game. When Gailey came on board, what did we have?

I seem to remember that he was supposed to stop posting a while back after Freddie was sidelined. Yet, he has kept coming back.

7th round picks have almost no value. And 1.75 mil ain't a large salary. So what is your point?

You do know that the Bills have to pay Moorman his entire 2012 salary still right?

Lol. Thats exactly my point. There was a touch of sarcasm in my original post about Bulaga ;-) You don't go reaching for a player just because you need someone at a position. He would have been a wasted pick at 9.

Buffalo has to pay all of Moorman's 2012 season salary though even if he signs with another team

I still think we should have gotten Bulaga instead like a number of posters here had wanted. He's a dominant tackle. Looked good againt Irvin last night.

I cannot find any other media outlet confirming the release yet

What does the F5 reference mean?

How can that be ? I thought Maybin was a classic example of the Bills just failing to "coach up" players.

If Maybin steps up his game to fill some of the void left by the loss of Revis, then maybe the Jets can still compete.

Trent was given more than enough of a chance by the new regime. Not sure where your revisionist thinking is coming from. VY will likely not be given another chance in the NFL ...

Flynn is riding the pine right now in a team that is not exactly set at QB. Also, was there a bidding war for his services during offseason?

JP Losman throws a nice looking ball and is currently available.

I think VY was part of 30 wins when he played qb in nfl. Chan has 28 wins as coach of both the Boys and Bills? Hardly a big difference between the two. Unless the Bills manage to win only 2 or fewer games this season, Chan will be surpass Vince .

Parrish was cut by the Raiders after he muffed two punts in a pre season game...

Home field advantage is a field goal right? So on a neutral field, the line would be Bills by 0.5?

Winslow apparently did not pass a physical with the Pats. Not sure if he has a future in NFL at this point .

Roscoe was cut by the Raiders yesterday . He probably is done in NFL at this point.
