hondo in seattle Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 I think this thread is funny. We're all experts on Terry's, Russ's and Whaley's faults even though most of us have never met them, let alone worked with them. The unbridled arrogance of fans is awe inspiring!
DDD Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Jesus Christ. Whaley is as much of the problem as Rex. Looks like we'll have to wait at least 2 more years to get a shot at a competent front office. This...unfortunately. I think this thread is funny. We're all experts on Terry's, Russ's and Whaley's faults even though most of us have never met them, let alone worked with them. The unbridled arrogance of fans is awe inspiring! Check the scoreboard jackass.
FLFan Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Man, Rodak sure has a knack for putting together clues! Mike Rodak @mikerodak 30m30 minutes ago Bills announce GM Doug Whaley will lead the team's coaching search. Would strongly hint Whaley will remain as GM. I would have thought that would be pretty obvious when they gave him an extension mid season, but hey, I am not a big time ESPN reporter like Rodak.
TH3 Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Whaley i will help you. Hire Matt Patricia Do you live in Mass? I live in NE and NOBODY thinks Patricia is a HC candidate
goldenboy81 Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Nice...i like the way things are shaping up...only time will tell for whaleys fate, just glad he still gets a chance..now go get a coach
billsfan_34 Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Is Russ being burned at the cross yet? Nope but they finally realized to keep this moron away from the football side of things.
Spurna Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Between most fans being fed up with Whaley (I am personally not yet) and solid evidence that Whaley wasn't a huge fan of Rex/ St. Doug, why not give him the reigns so he goes down if this next HC doesn't work? I think this is the best route to go. If Whaley didn't want Rex, then that means Whaley isn't really going to choose the next coach It's all a dog and pony show in Buffalo
Manther Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Jesus Christ. Whaley is as much of the problem as Rex. Looks like we'll have to wait at least 2 more years to get a shot at a competent front office.How do you know that? What makes you believe that?
Gregsbills 74 Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Big thumbs up on this decision. Send Brandon on a vacation during this search to a place that doesn't have a cell phone signal
3rdand12 Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 @buffalobills GM Doug Whaley will officially be leading the organization's head coaching search. Good, He should own it. Then we will know who to fire next time around
Manther Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Doug Whaley should have been fired already. Firing Rex to let this moron make the hire is pointless. Another fan base not known for being stupid drunks wouldn't put up with this.You base your opinion on what?If he was able to do this two years ago, we'd be a playoff team already.I agree
jester43 Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 now EJ starts and tyrod will be shown the door? 4-12 next year. whaley = franchise killer freaking amateur hour.
Bill from NYC Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 (edited) Marrone was a Major League Richard and a simpleton...How anyone with even the slightest bit of understanding in human nature could not figure that out after hearing the guy talk for 5 minutes is completely beyond my understanding... If you're looking for dirt on Whaley, and no question there likely is dirt, the Marrone situation is definitely not where I would start...I could care less what Marrone's side was...He was awful... And why was Marrone hired? Who brought this nobody to Buffalo? Look, there is no way I can prove it but I said from day 1 it was Brandon. They were paisans on some committee up in Syracuse. Brandon and Whaley are proven losers. Brandon will make you money for a while, then it will all come tumbling down. We are not even a laughing stock any more. We are an afterthought and we just committed to these two jackasses. This is bad........ Edited December 27, 2016 by Bill from NYC
Manther Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Whaley and Brandon have used their additional access to the Pegulas to protect their jobs and cast blame at the rest of the staff, including but not limited to time spent sitting with the Pegulas at games. All of it due to a difference in philosophy between Whaley and Rex about how to win football games. Well, we know Rex can't win football games!Coach #3 that Whaley is going to have power struggles with.1st one he is going to pick. It is fairly commonly known. Marrone was a Major League Richard and a simpleton...How anyone with even the slightest bit of understanding in human nature could not figure that out after hearing the guy talk for 5 minutes is completely beyond my understanding... If you're looking for dirt on Whaley, and no question there likely is dirt, the Marrone situation is definitely not where I would start...I could care less what Marrone's side was...He was awful... Agreed
KOKBILLS Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 And why was Marrone hired? Who brought this nobody to Buffalo? Look, there is no way I can prove it but I said from day 1 it was Brandon.

We are not even a laughing stock any more. We are an afterthought and just committed to these jackasses. This is bad........ Oh I think it was Brandon too...I'm not trying to defend Whaley...he likes to trade Draft picks and that drives me literally insane...But I could care less what happened between Whaley and Marrone because in the end Marrone left and that's all I cared about... I think Whaley is average...Not great, not terrible...He should put more value in acquiring picks than trading them...He could be better no question... Russ I'm just kinda meh on... And yes we are stuck with them...And I agree it's not good...I was in favor of blowing the whole thing up...
Rico Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 I'd keep 'em up. Just my two cents! +1. Excellent find, and spot-on. And why was Marrone hired? Who brought this nobody to Buffalo? Look, there is no way I can prove it but I said from day 1 it was Brandon. They were paisans on some committee up in Syracuse. Brandon and Whaley are proven losers.

Helpmenow Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 I still say that Whaley is the best GM this team has had since the 90's. He truly has upgraded the talent level of this team. Now he will get to bring in his guy at HC. He will also get to bring in his QB this year or next. This will make or break his career. Within the next couple of years he will either make it as a competent GM in this league or he will be headed back to someone's scouting dept. I would take John butler
Best Player Available Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 now EJ starts and tyrod will be shown the door? 4-12 next year. whaley = franchise killer freaking amateur hour. If for some reason that happened. The entire team will lie down. 4-12 would be about right. Watkins will flat out quit on the field. Who could blame any receiver? Whaley remeaining is scary. This drought goes 20 years with him as GM.
Saxum Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Between most fans being fed up with Whaley (I am personally not yet) and solid evidence that Whaley wasn't a huge fan of Rex/ St. Doug, why not give him the reigns so he goes down if this next HC doesn't work? I think this is the best route to go. There is no evidence of "most fans" - maybe more vocal fans but not most fans.
