Nervous Guy Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 This is just delightful. When Brian Schottenheimer shoots you down, you're pretty well screwed. JSP<ICE
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 JSP<ICE < of a douchebag? I couldn't agree more!
Smiley Dear Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 Maybe he knows his dad won't consider the job if he's a candidate. By taking himself out of the running, Brian just opened the door for his pa.
Fan in San Diego Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 All of you negtive nancies, if you read the quotes, Schotty is very happy where he is and doesn't want to jump just to get the title. He said he is finally happy after along time. It's nothing to do with the Bills. Why do Bills fans have an inferiority complex?
MikeSpeed Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 Well it HAS to be an anti-Buffalo or anti-Bills reason. According to the self-haters on this board, there can be no other reason. Sounds like we have fat girl syndrome. She can't get a date so... She gets a manicure. No help. She colors her hair. Still no go. Buys new cloths, puts on more make-up, wears the best perfume, nothing works. Even blaming her problem on all the guys she has met saying "They're just jerks". All the while denying to herself that if she would just lose 100 lbs she would have better luck. Sometimes the obvious reasons are the hardest to see. The Bills still can't get a date. Maybe it is them.

Georgia Bill Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 Well Frazier must be liking all this. His asking price can keep going higher if no one else even wants the job. "I mean, if you want me to coach the Bills, sure, but it's going to cost you..."
papazoid Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 OMG...Zimmers stays with Cincinnati.... WAS WORRIED BILLS WOULD CALL..................lol the sky is falling....the sky is falling....... http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d8...mp;confirm=true
gfalk87 Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 All of you negtive nancies, if you read the quotes, Schotty is very happy where he is and doesn't want to jump just to get the title. He said he is finally happy after along time. It's nothing to do with the Bills. Why do Bills fans have an inferiority complex? Why you ask? Maybe because we know that if the Washington or Seattle job was still open I guarantee Brian Schott would interview with them. It is due to the fact that Buffalo is a hopeless organization that needs a complete makeover and why would any young coaching candidate want to potentially damage his career by coming here. There are no long term plans for the franchise, you have guys in the front office that were hired by someone who was fired years ago and that dont know their ass from their elbow, no qb, no offensive line, and no direction going forward. It is just depressing looking at the current state of the Bills and being such a big fan I can honestly it sucks thinking this way. I don't know what to think anymore, but I do know major changes are needed. I mean come on we can't even get an average o-coord to want to interview with us.
C.Biscuit97 Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 The more I think about this, the more I realize how dumb some posters really are. The Jets have teh best oline in football and finished 20th in total offense. They finished 31st in passing, even behind the Bills high flying air attack. They ran the ball the most times in the NFL, almost 100 more times than the 2nd place team. This is a coach people are crying about not interviewing here??? Get a grip.
Gugny Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 All of you negtive nancies, if you read the quotes, Schotty is very happy where he is and doesn't want to jump just to get the title. He said he is finally happy after along time. It's nothing to do with the Bills. Why do Bills fans have an inferiority complex? I agree. He's what, 34-years-old? He's in no hurry ... and he's not desperate ... to become a head coach. He's got the luxury of waiting for the perfect time and opportunity. What's wrong with that? I respect him for not jumping at the chance just for the sake of a title change and a raise. He's had other opportunities and other interviews in the past. He knows what he's waiting for. If Cowher does end up saying no (not Schefter saying it for him), then B. Schott will be the bigger man for doing what Cowher didn't ... being up front with the Bills organization (and fans, for that matter). I've got no problem with B. Schott turning this down, and I don't think it's indicitave of anything other than he's happy where he is and Buffalo isn't the perfect opportunity. It doesn't mean Buffalo sucks, or that he hates Buffalo.
Sisyphean Bills Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 Here is a different question. Was the Buddy Nix hire seen as a gigantic screw up by coaching candidates? Since Nix was hired potential candidates can't turn down interview requests fast enough.
XTC Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 OMG...Zimmers stays with Cincinnati.... WAS WORRIED BILLS WOULD CALL..................lol the sky is falling....the sky is falling....... http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d8...mp;confirm=true Christ, this is so much worse than I realized. Is it that nobody wants to deal with a 70 year old "rookie" GM?
fconmy Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 That makes a lot of sense. He interviewed for the Jets head coaching job last year and obviously didn't get it. Yet he stayed on to coach. If you had any pride, you would have left. He just sounds like a guy who is happy to be an assistant. That is definitely not a guy we need here. and it's not like we talking about some offensive genius here either. his gameplan is just run the ball behind a great oline and keep his QB from passing. Not too hard. This is not a endorsement of Shotenheimer for hc,but he has done a pretty good job of putting Sanchez in manageable situtations. all you have to do is think about Joe Ferguson,and how he was handled for his rookie year.I used to go crazy thinking that we should let him throw the ball more.Well He turned out to be one of our best QB's,and our game plan with him was to just run the ball behind a very good OL.with OJ and Braxton.

I think the point is he sucks so bad yet he's not even interested in us...that makes us the suckiest thing going...ever.
Coach Tuesday Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 What amazes me is that he would publicly embarass his dad's friend by refusing to even meet with the Bills to hear what they have to say. That is just amazing. (My dad would kill me.)
BEAST MODE BABY! Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 Ralph made this shitstorm with his own two hands. And with help from the likes of Linda Bogdan and Jeff Littman. Nepotism at its best.
Sisyphean Bills Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 I think the point is he sucks so bad yet he's not even interested in us...that makes us the suckiest thing going...ever. The fact is that the Bills are working down a list from the most desired on down. So, if they are on the 10th candidate and the 10th guy is turning down an interview, they keep working down the list to even lesser candidates.
BEAST MODE BABY! Posted January 13, 2010 Posted January 13, 2010 The NFL has turned into a real snobby p u s s y league, what happened to coaches and player that would love to be in a REAL football town? This has nothing to do with the awesome fans of Buffalo. This has to do with the stinking, rotting head at the top of OBD. A round of applause for our Hall of Fame owner, who has turned this purse into a sow's ear.
