Trying to minimize this lost is pathetic. How's that?

I can make a case that this loss is the worst in my 36 years of watching. Blowing the first SB was not this pathetic.

Did it remind of anything? How 'bout 1st and goal from the three in first game last year. Three ridiculous calls then but at least we got a field goal last season. Actually between Gray and Mularkey, both deserve to be fired after this game. Replacements? Find someone to caretake 'til the end of the season from the CFL if you need to.

The POINT is...the whole organization NEEDS to be blown up. There's a bad seed in the front office and his damage can only be undone by a full housecleaning. Keep the current regime in place and destroy the franchise or clean house and the Bills could be respectable in 3 years. Three years or never, your choice.

In case you haven't noticed , this likely to be a turning point loss in the franchise history. IMO, this is last nail in Donohoe's coffin.

Right now coach April is the only one who stays. Hell, elevate him to HC. The results could not be worse.

Here's a radical thought. THE PLAY CALLING WAS BETTER UNDER GILBRIDE. He at least had some idea on how to construct a gameplan and not go into some sort of bombshelter in the 2nd half of a won game. This staff is dumbassed from top to bottom. GM, HC, OC and DC. Yes, DUMBASSED! And hopeless. Wake up Ralph!!!

Yeah, Moulds' spin/cut move after he sets to catch the ball gains him so much these days. Hint to Eric, if you lunged forward after the catch you'd gain more than that now crappy spin move. He can't take more than a 30% paycut and at that price he is still overpaid. Time to move on.

I picture him as asking his daughter (while she is adjusting his dribble bib): 'Anything wrong with the team?' 'No and quit spilling your oatmeal'

Let's keep TD and MM. What a pair! They can guarantee 7 - 9 seasons for as far as the eye can see. If woeful mediocrity is all Ralph wants, he's set for life. Why did MM get a 5 year contract? Because TD knew it would take him that long to learn the job. Buffalo Bills: trainers of coaches until they can find a real job elsewhere.

That would be Ralph's first inkling that all is not well in the land of the buffaloes.

I'll ask the question again. If TD didn't hire MM as a head coach who would have? GW's candidacy made some sense before the hire, MM did not (pure cronyism). From today's perspective, I'd have to say GW has more of upside than MM. Mularkey seems to have little, if any, grasp of what it takes to be a successful HC.

What a combination. Miami and the Jets on the road will be difficult games when the players display all the passion of ripped punching bags and with coaches who react on the sidelines like cardboard cutouts. Top 10 draft pick? This team with just a little less effort could secure a fiver.

What TD really needs is a cigerette, a blindfold, and a bullet.

You know, if you asked Butler that question you'd have probably got a non-committal, FOS answer. But ask Donahoe and and you get throughly dishonest tripe interlaced with outright falsehoods and lies. If my choice is the mess TD has put on the field or no more Buffalo Bills then RIP Bills.

For all the preening, all the struting, all the puffery, all we have for a GM is an exercise in Tom-foolery.

I rated GW as about a 28th or 29th out of 32 HCs. I rate MM as no better than a 24. If the coach does not show a 'spark' in the first 2 years, you're spinning your wheels. Mularkey hasn't won a single game with his 'brilliance'. Hes seems to have de facto admitted he has a failure at OC. Time to do something about the DC. Trouble is they're all failures: Ralph, TD, and the hand-picked coaching staff. All of them together do not equal one Belichick.

Not officially, yet, but when he turned the team over to Donahoe he should have sold it instead. He's going to die bitterly disappointed if he does care anymore. Personally, I don't think he has a clue, if he did ever.

Great, because I would have polled the board to see if someone could come up with another lunatic coach who started a QB a week after suffering anything but a mild concussion the week before(Jim Kelly as the QB doesn't count because he coached himself).

This explains my complaint about Albany channel 6 having the Jets game on their slate. Nice flexibility, CBS, locked into a schedule drawn up in April.

BTW, to switch subjects slightly, how difficult do you think it would be replace Mularkey? There are 15 jumokes as qualified as MM anyone could randomly select from the NFL coaching pool in any one year. Why was HE signed to a 5 year deal? Because the whole organization from top to bottom is about as braindead as you can possibly get in the NFL.

As I have stated before, how can Mularkey pretend it's an open question when players miss three games for turf toe, for God's sake? If he started Holcomb and Kelly had another concussion, the Bills would probably be hit with a major lawsuit. That would be playing with Kelly's life. The more he pulls this crap, the more I lose what little respect I have for the man.

Yes, that's exactly my take on him. Of course I mean in relation to his peers. He's in the bottom quartile. He doesn't know how to handle personnel or call plays. What else is there?

Nobody, and I mean nobody, starts a QB the week after anything but the mildest concusion and, even then, most coaches wouldn't do it. Ok, that doesn't rule out Mularkey. He really is a dumbass. How long before the majority see it?

Capitollanders please register your complaint at jdraus@wrgb.com. Draus is the program manager, I believe. This occasionally works in getting the games switched if there is a big enough outcry. They just made the decision today.
