1. It has always been a little questionable as to whether the success of the the Bills defense was because of LeBeau/Williams/Gray...or whether it was Gray. I'm thinking, these days it's the former. 2. There's a lot of cap room being used by 'impact' names that are not being 'impact' players. If it were my money, quite a few of these folks would be gone, replaced by FA and Draft and Trade....there's also the age factor on some of these guys. 3. Nate. Well, Nate has not helped Nate this year. And, btw, did he graduate from THE Ohio University? I have listened to elementary schools kids speak better...

If the Bills had continued down the path of winning some, losing some, it would not have been as apparent that this present situation just does not work. What this did was eliminate all doubt that the train is off the track. That being said, we have some good young talent to build around and can (I think) rebound pretty quickly with the right coaching, management and SOME player adjustments. The present situation is unrecoverable. The 2006 situation can be saved with adjustments that are, obviously, needed and required. I feel bad for Ralph. He deserved better from these guys.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/sportsnation/ratings Both Turner and Capers will be available at the end of this year. Turner would be a GREAT OC for the Bills, Capers would be great as DC (although Gray most likely will be here next year).

Not in this age of 'saving face'. Ralph is a classy person and only acts abruptly when he is severely pissed off (Polian...Butler). I think Donahoe will be gone at the end of the year, but the way this will happen is that TD will be 'leaving the organization' to spend more time with his family in Pittsburgh a nd pursue some other activities of personal interest. He will never be 'Fired'.

I agree. I think you give JP a offensive line next year and we'll have a hell of a quarterback. I think he fits with Buffalo culture too!

IF they make coordinator changes, I hope (no....make that pray) that they don't promote from within and/or get more first time coordinators. We need experience.

heres the deal: 1. It won't happen during the season. But Ralph can not be happy 2. Ralph does like, however, a full stadium. So, from a Marketing perspective, the Bills are clicking on all cylinders...so, he does not want to upset that part of the business. 3. At the end of the season, I bet what happens is something like this: - Donahoe moves to become more Presidential and gives up GM responsibilities - Modrak (maybe, maybe not) or someone of significance is hired to run the GM part - It's up for grabs on the coaching aspect. I like Mularkey, but Ralph will want to win now. The next coach, if they do make a change will be a very experienced head coach who will bring in a very experienced staff

Please come home. Please? Very Truly Yours, Ralph Wilson Owner, Buffalo Bills

"...if we fail to make the playoffs, it's not a issue of talent. It will be a result of poor coaching".

2005 is a lost cause. I like Mularky but I think the Bills need new DC and OC to start next year...AND, if that means a new HC as well, then we need to do what it takes. For some reason, Tom D has been apprehensive to hire coaches with significant experience and I think that's been the core problem here. Haslett, Billick, Fassel and others will be available. It makes me sick to think we could have had Weiss or Marvin Lewis..... Changes for 2006: Waive/trade: Williams, Moulds, Vincent, Milloy and Clements. Get $25M in cap money and get a offensive line. Keep Peters, Gandy and Preston. Everyone else is gone. Remainder of this Year: Losman QB's for the rest of the season...personally I think he's gonna be real good. All young talent gets in for evaluation and jumpstart 2006. Management: I have been a huge Tom D supporter, but I can see the counter argument at this point. If you make the change, go top shelf...get Polian back here, get Wolf, get someone that can turn it wround quick. Ralph desires to see results for his money.

He is proven, he is a task master, disciplinarian. ...not learning on the job.

next year. I like Mularky, but the boats going in the wrong direction and a change is going to require a real disciplinarian and control freak.

There is NO WAY that this falls on Losman's head. I can see a spotty rookie starting year, but this is consistent at 75 yards per game. I think the offensive strategy is all wrong. When is the last time: - They were consistent im establishing and staying with a power running game - Went over the middle with passes, rather than quick out's or long balls - A freakin' screen pass to take ADVANTAGE of blitz's McGahee starts off with a 26 yard run and rather than continue to pound, the next play is a Statue of Liberty. What bothers me, other than being a long suffering Bills fan, is that there is enough talent on this team to be right there at the top of the division. I CAN NOT understand this offensive approach.

There's a loyalty lacking here that I find concerning. The Bills drafted WM in the first round a few years ago when not many teams would TOUCH him until much later rounds, due to the nature of his injury. Then, The Bills, rather than hurrying him back in that first year, let him sit for the year learning the offense and not risking a injury...letting him heal. Then, WM is interviewed during this off season and asked "do you see yourself staying in Buffalo?" and the answer was '...if they pay me". Then, When his coach is sending him a direct message about running north/south, his response is "...everyone has their own opinion". Now, some of this may be youth and inexperience. But a message to be received by WM is be appreciative, shut up and do your job. You are 23-24 years old. You still have stuff to learn.

If McGahee is such a stud back....why was he east/west dancing and not hitting the holes that were, in fact, there. There is increasing speculation that Willis is not in synch with the coaching staff.
