bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 Polian Neglected the defense in Buffalo and did same with Colts. Sorry I want a GM that focuses on building a team and addressing weaknesses. The colts win because of Manning and their drafting and FA work of late has been suspect.

Do their GM's suck?

His first pick was Bruce & he was instrumental in bringing Bennett here plus any number of others what team that Pollian built in B-lo were you watching ?? I don't think it was the same one that i was watching even though i don't think he would come & Ralph is way to stubborn to admit he screwed up so we can just forget all that !!!

Sorry I want a GM that focuses on building a team and addressing weaknesses. The colts win because of Manning and their drafting and FA work of late has been suspect. Is that why he drafted Bruce Smith, traded for Cornelius Bennett, drafted Shane Conlan, Henry Jones, and Phil Hansen? Walt Corey was a big reason that defensive unit wasn't outstanding, not Bill Polian.

LOL he neglected defense but build a ridiculously DEEP team that went to 4 Super Bowls, and the men who worked under him helped to keep the team successful after he left. Unless Polian finds a way to get blackballed by 31 NFL teams, be will never work for Ralph Wilson again. Sadly, I can't blame the guy.

Sorry I want a GM that focuses on building a team and addressing weaknesses. The colts win because of Manning and their drafting and FA work of late has been suspect. The odds of Polian coming back to Buffalo are slim and none, and slim just left town gents! That said... anyone who can seriously attempt to make any argument why we should not want Polian back is completely out of their gourd. Polian is one of the greatest team builders the league has ever seen, period. Just for the sake of argument... IF Polian did come back, we would be a contender again in short order.
thewildrabbit Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 The man supposedly called the owners late daughter the C word, dunno about you but I were owner I'd rather not even speak to him again. Besides, Bill Polian was the PRESIDENT at Indy, his son was the GM. RW is the current president of the Buffalo Bills.... kinda why they are in the shape they have been in the last 7 years
Doc Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 Can he bring-in a QB like Manning (1st overall) or Kelly (who he didn't draft)? If not, forget about it.
Pat7s Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 Can he bring-in a QB like Manning (1st overall) or Kelly (who he didn't draft)? If not, forget about it. Well the good news about that is those guys are SO easy to find...

8-8 Forever? Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 Is that why he drafted Bruce Smith, traded for Cornelius Bennett, drafted Shane Conlan, Henry Jones, and Phil Hansen? Walt Corey was a big reason that defensive unit wasn't outstanding, not Bill Polian. Ralph fired Polian, he's not hiring some guy he fired forever ago.
BillsVet Posted January 3, 2012 Author Posted January 3, 2012 Ralph fired Polian, he's not hiring some guy he fired forever ago. I think the world will end before Bill Polian returns to the Buffalo Bills. Someone made the point that he neglected the defense and I disagreed.
jjmac Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 I think we should hire Polian again.......What do you guys think????? Absolutely not. That team was completely built around Manning, so much so that it cannot function without him.
Kettle Creek Football Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 Ralph fired Polian, he's not hiring some guy he fired forever ago. Ralph also fired Lou Saban... Then rehired him!
KollegeStudnet Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 Tim must still be visiting TBD from time to time. Hopefully, he was very insightful!
Mike in Syracuse Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 You'll be able to tell the age of Bills fans by how many "We should hire Polian" threads you see in the next few weeks. Those of you who remember how the story played out know that John Butler's got a better chance of coming back as GM than Polian. And for those of you who don't know who John Butler is, don't bother Googling his name because he's be dead for a while.
Homey D. Clown Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 i logged on here today for the simple reason of looking for the re-hire polian thread.... ohhh how happy everyone would be, but we know all too well that ebenezer will never allow success to happen....errr i mean bring back Polian again.
