Buffalo Bills fire Head Coach Chan Gailey
Simon replied to scribo's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
His exits from Dallas and KC were both questionable decisions at best and I don't blame him for having some animosity. FWIW, I'm sure he wasn't referring to G'Tech. -

NFL Black Monday for coaches and GMs
Simon replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Every coach has a shelf life. And while I think Andy Reid is an excellent ball coach there's just so much stuff that has gone on over there that Reid's departure is as good for him as it is for the Eagles. -
Peter king says Chan gone on Monday...
Simon replied to OhIDunno's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yeah, I think it's time for the Bills to move in a different direction. Chan is not a bad football coach, but he's an awful fit for the Bills at this point in time and it really showed this year. My post was just to make a similar point to what I bolded in yours. That while it needs to be done, maybe the folks who are actually going to do it aren't drooling all over themselves from the excitement of getting to destroy a good man's dream. -

Not everybody is as eager to fire good people from their jobs as you are. -
Maybe it's premature, but I think it's time to start including this guy into greatest running back of all time conversations.

Chan, really nice guy. Gotta go.
Simon replied to TC in St. Louis's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is the #1 problem that the Bills need to address in the offseason. Nobody can wear both those hats in the modern NFL and still manage a game efficiently. If they walk into next season with a similar dynamic, it's over before it even starts. -
They (Nix/Whaley) had had their eye on him for a couple years, actively pursuing him with a quality contract before he went to Seattle. I think they just saw he was available for dirt cheap and went for it. I've never asked what Chan's opinion is on the matter so I don't know if there is a disconnect there. The question I have at this point, is do the Bill earn a compensatory pick if he leaves as a FA? Did they trade away a 7th rnd pick with the knowledge that they would receive it back the next offseason? If so, it's hard to give them too much grief for acquiring a player they liked at virtually no cost.

What the hell was he doing up at 4 in the morning. Hope he's not back on the sauce again.......

He's certainly the most passive co-ordinator I've seen anywhere in the league this year. And with all due respect to Peyton Manning, he'd need to average about 35 points/game with an offense that boasts exactly 1 NFL quality WR and 1 lead-footed TE that can't block. Regardless of what they do in the offseason, this team isn't likely to improve unless they make sweeping changes to the coaching staff.
-
The problem is that he isn't doing anything. He's the most passive D co-ordinator in the NFL. There's probably 100 guys on this board who could do exactly what he's done this year. No disguises, no overloads, no deception, no efforts whatsoever to make opposing offenses uncomfortable. This team WILL NOT WIN with him calling shots.

Well he was given teh ball around midfield with about 2:00 left after Tomlin inexplicably tried a 50+FG on the worst kicking surface in the NFL and Mr Dalton couldn't manage to pick up a single first down. Then he stood on the sidelines and watched Ben throw a crunchtime pick from his own 20 for the second week in a row. So yes, congrats to Andy for his outstanding spectating skills today, He finds ways to win, even from the sideline.

5 Most hated Dolphins of all-Time
Simon replied to ChevyVanMiller's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Marino was a giant bag of ass well before he became a phin, Putting on that ugly uniform just made it worse. 1- Dan Marino 2- Jimmy Johnson 3- Louis Oliver 4- Randy McMichael 5- Thurman Thomas -
Without having actually been on that team and seeing the dynamics firsthand I'm hesitant to say too much about it, either for or against it. I guess it makes me think of a Chris Rock routine I saw once; I'm not saying he should have done it....... but I understand. If a guy is not playing well at QB but he's working hard and appreciates his teammates efforts to help him, they're going to do what they can to protect him and support him; they might grumble about it a bit when they're having beers, but they'll still play for him. But if a guy is not playing well AND he's being disrespectful and treating his brothers like garbage, then he better start watching his backside because the 'ole blocks are going to start coming. And that I don't necessarily have a huge problem with. To me the bottom line is that Scott Mitchell should have treated his 'mates with the respect they deserved and it never would have happened.

Lomas Brown is not the first nor will he be the last guy to pull the cape to get somebody tagged. Although he is the first guy I've ever heard of that said it in front of a microphone. It happens, sometime even for the good of the order. And it appears that in this case, it was to the Lions benefit. I bet every guy in the locker room knew about it and there wasn't any of them not named Mitchell who was pissed at him. I'm interested how some of the former player talking heads deal with this; there might be a bunch of insincere self-righteous nonsense but I wonder if any of them will have the guts to say what they really think.
