Senility for insanity, what could be worse?!?

Maybe Ralphie remembered a game in 1985
mabden replied to Chalkie Gerzowski's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Unfortunately, games like yesterday. bring back those memories. Some as hope that one time the Bills were really bad and rose up to go to 4 Super Bowls and some that maybe those days weren't so bad afterall. -
After reading these forums, I have come to the conclusion, that the sorry state of the Buffalo Bills has made it's fans completely insane. It has been so dysfunctional, top to bottom, for so long, with nothing but past glory and little hope in the future, the fans are at a complete loss to comprehend the overwhelming nature of how bad this team and organization has become.

Edwards should only look to John Corto
mabden replied to The Guy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
What about his statement says that he is not invested in this team. From what I have seen TE is playing hard and has not given up on his team. -
If Rush was buying our Bills instead of the Rams...

If Rush Bimbo bought the Bills, I would immediately become a Raiders Fan. -
I have never seen the fans this low!

I doubt it! Inexperience and poor coaching breeds penelties. I do agree that the no-huddle scream we have is not contributing to lack of field time, not converting 1st downs is the problem. With repect to the OP and the D&C article about the authors expectation of the no-huddle. True, it is nothing like the K-gun. What I believe this mess is designed to be like was the no-huddle that Cinny ran in 88' with Boomer and Icky Woods. The premise was to keep the defensive configuration on the field (unable to substitue) because the offense was at the line of scrimmage ready to snap and the def did not want to get caught making subs or extra men on the field. When they finally snapped, there usually was only a few seconds on the play clock. Cinncy's attack was effecient, but they also had an excellent OL and quality skilled players at qb, wr, and rb. However, the Bills current version dosen't come close to what Cinny ran. What I see is a confused mess and the def seems to have plenty of opportunities to sub all they want therefor defeating the purpose of the no-huddle.

Stop confusing the issue with facts!

Could not agree more

Somebody got the jist of the article as it relates to the Bills. Will RW get in a bidding war with Washigton or Dallas over Gruden? In my perfect world, RW would fire Dick and hire Gruden today. However, reality says RW will sit on his hands, what for the season to end and the coaching merry-go-round to start and hire some nobody and/or has been claiming he can't compete with the likes of Snyder and Jones for top dollar, top shelf coaching.

Needed: Brilliant Ideas to help Trent...
mabden replied to Bob in Mich's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agreed. I noticed TE suffering from what has been called "Happy Feet" When he is looking down field, his feet are jumping around like crazy. A sure sign of anxiousness, in that, if I don;t get rid of the ball soon, I will be eating out of a straw sooner. This was a problem identified of Jim (Chris) Everett by I believe the espn qb wonk -

That would require some coaching. -
Trent doesn't have the coaching the Rodgers gets.

For The 1,000,000,000,000th Time
mabden replied to PearlHowardman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
RW's best decision was promoting Bill Pollien to GM. Ralph had no idea that Pollien would turn out to be one of the best GM's in football. I other words, Ralph got lucky. It was Pollien who convinced RW to start spending money on players (no cap) and with that Pollien built a super bowl team. -
When do the fans stage a meaningful protest ?
mabden replied to ddaryl's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I was at a Bills - Redskins game when Rob Johnson was the backup qb. Late in the game, starting qb Ramsey was sacked and injured. The statium (in the middle of a 7 round wave) amlost instantly went silent when we realized Johnson would be coming in. When crowd went nuts and the loudest cheer I ever heard there was when Johnson was sacked. Monday morning Johnson was released from the Redskins. Point is to show up and demostrate to RW what you think of DJ by constant, relentless singing for the release of DJ. -
Bad spots happen, but not with the frequency of beneficial spots the Pats get at home. "Just give it to them."
-
That s because the OC who designed those plays is no longer calling them.
-
"You saw the game, just like I did," Wilson said outside the locker room. "What do you want me to say? What do you say?" RW to DJ, "Dick, it's been fun but you need to go. And take Brandon with you." That's what you say Ralph! I know that's what I would say.

"Mabden, why are you laughing so hard?" "Because if I wasn't laughing, I would be crying!"

Buffalo HAS supported this team with record attendance year in and year out. What do we get for it, crap like we saw this Sunday. Ralph has done nothing but hold this area hostage with vailed threats of having to move the team without fan support. Nothing will change until RW sees an empty stadium! Fire Brandon, Jaron, and the scouting staffs.

Quality coaches command quality money. Chuck Know left Buffalo because RW wouldn't pay the money to the players Knox wanted. So we got Kay Stevens and Hank Boulcock. Levy was a losing coach when he came here and we lucked out big time with Marv. Around the same time RW promo'd Bill Pollien who just happened to be hanging around the organization (at least that's how it seemed) Again Pollien was a huge factor in the Bill's success and he convinced RW to start paying for players. Since Levy retired RW has either promo'd from within or brought in assistants on the cheap, leaving bigger names (salaries) to other teams. The Bills current organization is not setup to challange RW like Pollien did. Will RW pay the 5 mill a year neccesary to bring in a top coach and allow him to make the personnel changes this team sorly needs?

Better strenght and conditioning training would reduce injuries (especially to our OL with back injuries) and it would help with the teams ability to finish games. I remember in the 2-14 seasons, no matter how well the team played in the first 1/2 or 3/4 of the game, they would lose it in the fourth quarter. One reason was conditioning. Once Levy came in and hired Rusty Jones, the Bills played the whole game with energy and injuries were way down. Losing Jones was a big mistake IMHO!
