  1. As somebody has already posted: Talk is cheap. The Bills were 30th in points scored last year. Since Jauron made little to no effort to correct the problem during the year, he must have been 'happy' with the way the offense was scoring.
  2. You forgot to include the 2000 season where Jauron took a 6-10 team of 1999 to 5-11. IIRC, Jauron was also given an extension after that season. Angelo must have really hated Jauron. Will Peters hold out and the fact the Bills will have to play 'home' games in Toronto become the new 'reasons' (a/k/a excuses) Jauron fails? How dare Angelo have no real regard for a HC that already had two losing seasons prior to his arrival. Players loved Wayne Fontes too. Players played hard for him. Wayne is previous Coach of the Year winner. When Jauron is showed the door, I say we hire Wayne Fontes. You are so right. Smith only has a .563 winning average with a SB appearance. Jauron was sssssssooooooooooooooo much better. 32 of those 117 games came as HC of the Bills. Buffalo was the only team interested in Jauron at the time of his hire. It was a real possibility if the Bills did not hire DJ, DJ never sees 100 games as a HC.
  3. A.) Sisyphean Bills post was not visible when I posted. B.) My reading comprehension is fine. C.) In Jauron's case, why is being able to coach 100+ games worth considering? 32 of those games came as HC of the Bills.
  4. So, when the Bills ditch Jauron, they should run out and hire Bruce Coslett? He is on the list. How about Henning? Come on, Coslett and Henning have both coached over 100+ so they MUST be good, right? Isn't this what you are saying: 100+ games = good coach?
  5. Being a bit over dramatic? Did not somebody post on the here the Bills ended up with the 18th hardest schedule by seasons end? A far cry from the "HARDEST" schedule ....
  6. Clicks. I hate hover style menus. They may look 'cool' for the kiddies, but they can be a pain in the to navigate in and around.
  7. If we can believe the stories out of south Florida, Dorsey will look like world beater in comparison.
  8. Tolls would be the least concern. You need more ways to get on / off the island. Two bridges will not cut it.
  9. One problem. You forgot to include we play the Jets - twice. Just as much as Favre could help the Bills by beating "our" opponents, Favre could help our opponents by beating us.
  10. I think you are skewing your cause/effect and time lines. The Bills beat the Broncos in the AFCC game after the 1991 season. Eight years later, the Broncos had already won and celebrated their second SB. Of course, in beating Marino and the Dolphins, Buffalo had it's own media darlings such as Kelly, Thomas, B. Smith, Bennett, and even later, Flutie.
  11. According to you, just like the way we "destroyed" the image of Elway? The same Elway that is: -in the NFL Hall of Fame -awarded league MVP in 87 -started in 5 SB -won 2 SB -awarded SB MVP I do not think his image his "tarnished" in any way shape or form because he lost to Bills a few times. Sorry. Favre makes the Jets a better team. Period. How much better is unknown. Just do not bet on them being a cake walk this year.
  12. Hell ... No. Favre may not be the QB he was 10 years ago, but he is a big upgrade over what the Jets have now. I would like to see the Jets get worse, not better.
  13. #2, without question. If am not mistaken, both Buffalo and Rochester are losing population. Until that problem is corrected, the other options sound nice, but are long term failures waiting to happen. Do not mistake the apathy you see now with the present Toronto deal as a default attitude towards the NFL. Canadians are interested in the NFL, just not the way it is being shoved down their throat.
  14. After listening to "Rocky Top", he may beg to differ
  15. Yeah, because there is nothing like watching a game full of camp fodder with nothing at stake vs. one of the nations best, nastiest, and most intense college football rivalry. Have you even attended a "real" college football game? (And no, UB, Syracuse, and Pitt do not count as "real" college football)
  16. Probably not. One of the arguments for merger was the companies had hit or were near peak price points people would be willing to pay for a subscription. In other words, if they started to jack up the price, they would start losing customers.
  17. Convert him back to TE. Then there is no reason for a holdout. He will be an overpaid TE.
  18. Apparently you are ignoring the part where I said "Unless she was knowingly allowing it to happen ..." And you counter act with a "moral" clause? Did you stop to consider how "moral' it is to prosecute somebody who had nothing to do with the crime? I am not absolving anybody from anything. I have no problem with the RIAA prosecuting those people that ACTUALLY COMMIT THE CRIME. I do have a problem with the RIAA prosecuting people simply because they feel they can suck the money out of them. And if you think the RIAA have better things to do besides chase the little guy ... Bull When the RIAA is starting to consider ANY MUSIC copied to your computer is illegal even when that music came from your OWN LEGALLY purchased CD ... Linky
  19. Wasn't Peters a converted TE? We could just keep him for the <another TE> spot ...
  20. Unless she was knowingly allowing it to happen, your example is bad. Amazing. How in the world did we let this country get so screwed up. We need tort reform to protect companies from "mean" sue happy consumers, but companies are allowed to sue anybody and everybody - repeatedly - until somebody coughs up the cash.
  21. Then ask him how is one supposed to order Red Velvet Cake? The icing is not red, nor does the cake contain velvet. If he still does not believe the whole chocolate / yellow cake problem, send him this link: Linky It has "pictures" to help him figure it out ...
  22. You are making a big assumption that Jauron would accept having an OC pushed on him. He may not. Yet, it only took three different teams to finally figure that out. And honestly, do you think Wade had any leverage to buck that decision? If Schonert fails, how much longer do you give Jauron to hang himself?
  23. I saw the same thread. The thread is almost hysterical. One guy was boasting how McGahee's play against the Bills proved how wrong we were about him. I thought about posting the stat comparison, along with reminding the Raven fans that McGahee did have a great game - against one of the worst defenses in the NFL. And to gently remind them they still LOST the game. But, I just figured they should mire in their own stupidity, and keep believing they have an 'elite' back.
  24. This is a fallacy. Being an ex-player does not mean he knows how to implement an offense. Further, even if he does know how do it "in theory", he still has to actually do it.
  25. Some manufacturers do put head lights on their machines .... Seems like a waste not to use them..
