grammer_police Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Now, I've done some pretty heavy thinking and drinking on the issue over the last few nights, and I've come to the conclusion that we need Dick Jauron to stay. Why? One word: We need continuity. Remember the 1st game of the year? We (for all intensive purposes) beat the NE. Then the season went downhill because the air got taken out of us. It's not Dicks fault that McKelvin sucks. If we had won that game we would probably be leading our division, and headed to the playoffs. If we get a new head coach we will have to start all over again. And also, the players play hard for him. Some coaches don't even have that. So in short, KEEP THE DICK!!!!
Cynical Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Now, I've done some pretty heavy thinking and drinking on the issue over the last few nights, ... That explains it.

Yes these are all good reasons. I would add that he already knows the Buffalo system, so there would be no learning curve.
LongLiveRalph Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Continuity like losing 8 straight division games between '08 and '09? Continuity like his 0-7 record vs. New England since he's been here? Say what you want about the Bills "beating" them in September, coaching could've sealed the deal in a game the players played well enough to win. Continuity like losing 92% of games against teams that finish that season with a winning record? (His record is 2-22, one win was against the NYJ in 2006 when they finished 10-6, and the other was vs. Wash in '07 when they finished 9-7. Great Dick.) Continuity like zero winning seasons since 2001? No thanks on continuity. What we need is a real GM with some fresh eyes, who's been in the game. Like Matt Millen.
b stein 22 Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Why would you want another year of having to watch offense do NOTHING. I really mean NOTHING when I say this. Do you like having to watch every game and know that in any second they can blow the game.

So you want to keep a guy that has less then .500 winning % lifetime. Its getting worse the more he stays not better. I just lost my job after increasing my terrtory sales by 35% in the second year. 15% the first year. How does this happen. lol If DJ is the coach of the Bills after this year then expect nothing more than a 7-9 season from here on out unless he opens up the play book.

In four seasons of continuity he has done nothing to make you think he is progressing towards anything resembling good football for this team, especially on offense. This has to be one of those joke threads that people make just to get everyone fired up.

I dont understand in another thread you wanted Eric Magini as coach and now you want to keep DJ. Serious question: Do you want the Bills to loose because DJ and ManGenouis could not have a winning season unless getting touchdowns on offense would give you negative points? And they would still loose because they would try to get touchdowns and not understand why the other team is giving to them.
mrags Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Previous post I wrote on another topic: "I personally dont believe that Dick will ever (barring a few lucky games) have a winning season in football ever again as a head coach. For this reason I believe that he is the main reason why we have missed the playoffs the last 3 years. 3-4 straight years of injuries is not a coincidence it is a trend with this team and Dick is the constant. He has gone through 3 different OC's, tried out 3 QB's, botched up the RB situation, failed to sign/draft a legitimate WR when we needed one 3 years ago, failed to sign/draft actual players at DE and LB, failed in the scouting department and with the draft, horribly failed at clock/game management. IMO the only thing he was able to be successful at is providing an above average secondary (you would think after so many DB's anyone could get it right tho), and buying additional time as a HC in the league since he should have been fired 2 years ago. I for one am glad to lose every single game until Dick is gone. It sucks to swallow that pill now, but it will be much better in the future knowing hes not here to F*&K up this franchise."

Players like the bird man, Jairus Byrd exemplifies who we are and what the Buffalo Bills are all about, we produce some of the best DB's that ever played the game. Dick Jauron fits our profile, or our identity if you will, I'm inclined to agree with you about our HC at this point, KEEP THE DICK!!!!
/dev/null Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 We (for all intensive purposes) beat the NE.
BillsVet Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Yes these are all good reasons.I would add that he already knows the Buffalo system, so there would be no learning curve. Replying to your own post...that's the epitome of greatness. And by greatness I mean not great.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Remember the 1st game of the year?We (for all intensive purposes) beat the NE. I too used to think the phrase was "all intensive purposes." It's actually for "all intents and purposes"--makes much more sense too. As for the idea of keeping Jauron, even Jauron himself thinks he should be fired. He's gone.

DCbillsfan Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 Yes these are all good reasons.I would add that he already knows the Buffalo system, so there would be no learning curve. Plus he knows how to get to the stadium
