zonabb Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 for christ sake will get off maybins back, he needs to get stronger, give him time. he is only 21 let him grow into his body...... Hopefully he grows into a new brain too becauze he sure didn't seem to figure out a way to compensate for his shortcoming. He just continually ran into a brick wall over and over. Maybin = Erik Flowers
Kingfish Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 The only complaint I have is that they interviewed John Guy. I understand that it was likely due to the Rooney rule, but good grief, their pro talent evaluation has been awful this decade. He should be the first one out the door. John Guy is black? I always pictured him as a balding middle-aged white man.
PromoTheRobot Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 I'm OK with Nix, but your logic is BS. There are quality GM's sitting out there now. Also, the Browns did it, so why not the Bills again? Such as? Holmgren said no. Ron Wolf and Schottenheimer want to stay retired. Who else as out there that you would have approved of? PTR
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Does AJ Smith do anything in SD? Go pee in your own cornflakes, Pal.
Arkady Renko Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 John Guy is black? I always pictured him as a balding middle-aged white man. A picture of him does not exist anywhere.
NobesBLO13 Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 John Guy is black? I always pictured him as a balding middle-aged white man. Same here, I was picturing a fat azz too
joshsin Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Since it looks like its nix. who are some coaches he would want to work with?
Brandon Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Nix might well be the best man for the job. But, it's not like the Bills actually did due diligence to find out, is it? They gave token interviews to Guy and Modrak, who have been onboard for a decade of futility. The reality is that there was one "promote from within" candidate that wasn't around this last decade and wasn't brought in by Donahoe and he, surprise surprise, gets the GM-ship. That's Ralph's definition of "big changes" and pulling out all the stops to get it right this time. It's just too much to ask for that the Bills actually walk outside the building to look for something new. Maybe, maybe not. If the Bills think that Buddy Nix is that good at what he does, I don't really blame them for not looking outside the organization. If he's the guy that they really wanted to hire, they should just hire him and get it over with.
BillsVet Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Since it looks like its nix. who are some coaches he would want to work with? Fewell. He comes recommended from Ralph/Littman/Brandon/Overdorf. Actually, he comes ordered from them.
FluffHead Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 I applied for this job and they never got back to me. WHAT THE !@#$ I'M PISSED!!!!!!!
Lv-Bills Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Such as? Holmgren said no. Who else as out there that you would have approved of? PTR I'm not going into all that, because it's been re-hashed over and over who all the big name GM's that are sitting out there. You said exactly that "The Bills could not go outside for a GM candidate until the end of the season." That's false. Completely. As far as we know about Holmgren too is that we asked him to be our coach, not GM. We don't know that for sure, but the report was about coaching, not running the org.
Fingon Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Since it looks like its nix. who are some coaches he would want to work with? The Schottenheimer's seem like the prime candidates.
Kingfish Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 A picture of him does not exist anywhere. He's like that creepy dwarf in Mulholland Drive.
papazoid Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 there are some funny people in here......thanks for the laughs....
Lv-Bills Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Go pee in your own cornflakes, Pal. I'm just asking, does he? Seems that everyone here all of a sudden has AJ just sitting around in SD watching Nix run the org. Be at least a little more objective on the situation.
\GoBillsInDallas/ Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 It's official per buffalobills.com: http://www.buffalobills.com/news/article-3...9b-4084bf4b156e
Coach Tuesday Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Rooney rule dude, Rooney rule. You have to interview a retarded person under the Rooney Rule? Was not aware of that...
BEAST MODE BABY! Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 It's a solid pick.....he is one of the best in the business..... This may be true, but WHY THE &%$# did they interview John Guy? What are they going to announce...that they searched far and wide to look for a GM? Looks like they didn't even get out the front door of OBD.

Be at least a little more objective on the situation. And how soon we forget that we heard the same exact story when Modrak was hired, helped build the Eagles, well-respected and experienced, etc. etc. The skepticism is deserved.
