Go-Bills Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 young and agressive! every hire has been a quality individual.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 Curious... Did anyone but McDermott a HUGE pizza with Bills designs on it? That didn't look very appetizing... not at all That said - it's a change. A big one. To an outsider, stitching together patterns and varying comments, I think Peg decided to start running the organizations his way with his choice of people- Probably opting to leverage what got him where he is instead of capitulating to all the voices advising how 'different' football is from his other businesses. Maybe it'll work, maybe not.... but at least it's different
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 ...look from the post Polian era through the Wrecks/Whaley era.......now compare any point in that era to what you see so far "on paper (have to)" with the Beane/McD era?.....good, bad or indifferent?....
Formerly Allan in MD Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 We'll see. Remember when geniuses such as Donahoe and Jauron were going to fix things? And of course there's the other "genius" Ryan.
Cripple Creek Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 identity within the Bills universe that will lead to success or is it more the same old same old? I say things are on the up and up as McDermott himself gives this team an intense identity that hasn't been seen within the Bills in a long, long time. What do you think? I think so. Add accountability into the mix as well.
Bronc24 Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 Honestly the most excited I've been in an offseason in decades...please let it equate to wins and playoffs....
Bill_with_it Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 I think its structured, following a certain vision, cohesive, and wont be as much confrontational drama. If that leads to success well we just have to watch to find out, it certainly is a fresh breath of febreeze.
Augie Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 Honestly the most excited I've been in an offseason in decades...please let it equate to wins and playoffs.... Give it time.... Nothing this hard happens over night. I'm encouraged.
Success Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 Yeah - this feels different. Look - we had years of bargain basement. I give Ralph all of the credit and honor I can for building the only contender we had and keeping the Bills in Buffalo. But he was very frugal. The Pegulas will spend whatever it takes. They got fooled by Rex, but they deserve a mulligan. I think McD and Beane are the real deal. They both live for this game, and they have a track record. This is the turning point. For reals.
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 (edited) Give it time.... Nothing this hard happens over night. I'm encouraged. ....Pegulas rightfully were blinded by the lights of buying TWO sports franchises...think there is a learning curve?...how about Jones (1989 minus the JJ years where he pushed him out of the way) or Boy Danny Snyder (1999)?.....TP did not write checks for nearly $1.7 BILLION to field losing clubs......initially the path as been bumpy and of course with all of the TBD pundits and their barbs (none had enough in their checking account to buy TP out but the 'ol keyboard cowardice inflated their yippy gonads) chimed in 24/7.....but the prognosis is looking good for both clubs....stay tuned..............
