1. Change the jerseys: Call me nuts, but its safe to say 2 things about the current Buffalo Bills jerseys: A: They are hideous and B. They are associated with losing. Go to the throwbacks full time, the trend is in, look at the Cowboys, Jets and Giants as examples. Give the franchise a new look, a new beginning, to help create a better culture.
2. Only trade Marshawn Lynch for a LB who can start in the 3-4 or as high of a draft pick as possible: if the Bills trade for a WR, or a corner, or anything like that, they are nuts. Get a player who can help with the transition to a 3-4 or a pick in 2011 that can help. No exceptions.
3. Start Ryan Fitzpatrick now, then give Brian Brohm a chance: I say this because Ryan can inject some confidence into the offense, then at that point, give Brohm an opportunity, and in this order, because right now the team is down, this would not serve Brohm well. Then give Brohm the rest of the 2010 season to see what he has.
And for the fan base: Patience. I know its very frustrating this 10 year drought is, but this is a work in progress, and as long as Nix has a plan, and Ralph allows him to execute it, there can be light at the end of the tunnel.
