Realist Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 In the short term, this really means nothing, as there is a lot more wrong with this team than just the Head Coach. But, at least its the sign of change coming. We can only hope now that this is a well thought out process and the best is yet to come. <cross fingers>
BLZFAN4LIFE Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Adam Schefter is saying Jauron was summoned to Detroit and was blindsided by the news. Really.... Blindsided?!?! Did he then say he'll have to go back and look at the film???
zazie Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Adams bird flipping antics have backfired as Ralph is now angry and will go hard after Fisher. The firing is letting Adams know who is boss. If that is the case then I can only thanks Mr. Adams.
timba Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Is the offense going to line up 10 yards off the ball too?
CFLstyle Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Jauron hinted that he was going to start a QB carousel. Ralph is probably looking for a coach who doesn't want that. Bud Adams gave Ralph the finger. Gee I wonder why. Yep, it's all coming together now, looks like you were right.
TheChimp Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 WOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOO It's about time, did Ralphie just awake from his coma? ...and was Bud Adams really the one who woke him up????? Strange goings on in the world of Depends and Geritol....
RyanC882 Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 im watching top 10 draft busts it says Jauron has been fired. Get Harbaugh from Stanford ! http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writ....html?eref=sihp
Boom Jam Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 All it takes is trust, and a little bit of pixie dust!
timba Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Blindsided?!?! Did he then say he'll have to go back and look at the film??? It's really hard to keep a head coaching job in the NFL. He must not have seen it coming on account of the too cool for school shades.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 It's really hard to keep a head coaching job in the NFL. Winner winner, chicken dinner!
opfball91 Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 personally i hope to god they lose out still! The last thing we need is a cheap alternative finishing 5-2 or 4-3 and tempting ralph to not clean house. Modrak Guy Brandon Fewell VanPelt and April all need to go. Finishing strong could mean disaster years down the line We have talent in this coaching staff although it may be slim. I agree that the Front Office should be gone, I'm not against Van Pelt just because of what he's working with at quarterback and the offensive line. The Head Coach's attitude trickles all the way down, goes through the coaches and the players. I'm hoping Perry brings in more of a winning attitude and less of a not losing attitude. For now, I'll remain optimistic, this type of news comes across very sparingly in the Bills organization, let us be happy for a day or two. We'll all go back to being miserable on Monday when we find out nothing has changed.
ieatcrayonz Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Yep, it's all coming together now, looks like you were right. I'm not trying to brag. Some things are just easy to see when you pay attention. I predicted the fake injury to Garnet leading to a 4-1 Finals victory for LA over Orlando or Atlanta. I did that in February. This was no different after Fisher gave that interview.
NewEra Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Hopefully we can fire Fewell and go with a 3-4 DC. I know we don't have the personal for it, but we dont have the personal for a cover 2 either. Time to move on with the rest of the NFL. Our best D's were when we ran the 3-4. Let the spring cleaning begin in the fall this year. Did I mention. AMEN!!!! THANK YOU GOD!!!
LABills08 Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 This is step 1. Step 2 is hiring outside of the organization for both GM and Head Coach. My biggest worry is that Fewell or April take the team to 7-9 and pull an upset or two that gives Ralph an excuse to promote either of them to HC. I have no problem w/ the Bills winning, but I do have a problem with Ralph playing it cheap going forward. Fewell and April are great guys I'm sure, and April has always been a top special teams coach. But neither are what the organization needs right now.
Mike in Syracuse Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Adam Schefter is saying Jauron was summoned to Detroit and was blindsided by the news. Really.... Well that's just bull ****. Jauron is a crappy football coach but he's not stupid. If Jauron got summoned to Detroit he knew why. I don't think if Ralph waited this long he's not going to develop an intense hatred of the guy in a few weeks. I think the reality is that Ralph really like Jauron and really wanted him to succeed. It just wasn't meant to be.
RyanC882 Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 You have to start somewhere, and this is a good start Now here is the only issue: What if the Bills go 4-3 or 3-4 and Ralph likes what he sees and keeps April over hiring a guy like Holmgren? Good point. They need to clean house and get a real coach.
NoName Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 its about time........I have to admit, I actually feel bad for DJ....I don't know why but I do....obviously he should be fired but...IDK
Cornerville Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Good point. They need to clean house and get a real coach. Yes but I say we give April a chance to see what he can do the rest of the year. You never know what another voice can do in a locker room. And we will see how he is with game management, adjustments etc.
