The GM who went on to pick Jerkron. Not sure what happened but he is still my favorite coach since Wade and I figured some crazy , Old Man Wilson BS went on behind the scenes to cause that to happen. Ralph fired Donahoe, who had hired both Williams and Mularkey when they were on no one else’s radar. I always felt Donahoe did so because he lost a power struggle with Cower in Pittsburgh. He hired them as HC so they owed him. When Marv was named GM he told Mularkey he would be retained, Mularkey then quit. Why? Was Marv so inferior to Donahoe? Which one os in the HOF?

There was speculation that he will be canned if he did not make the playoffs...he did There was speculation earlier today that he will be let go if he did not win a road playoff game @ KC.....he did Now, will he get another ultimatum to beat the Patriots or Steelers else...get your pink slip? 4 minutes ago, chris heff said: Ralph fired Donahoe, who had hired both Williams and Mularkey when they were on no one else’s radar.

Mularkey quit because he was told that Bledsoe would not be the QB moving forward....and Mularkey had no reason to wait and see Losman explode...He knew what he was getting in Losman

Bleadsoe then demanded his release. Try using Google to check facts.

BillsVet Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 Mularkey was 18-14 in 2 seasons and he's on the chopping block unless he wins a playoff game? The NFL is churning through HCs so quickly teams may as well treat them like auto insurance: having 6 month agreement terms. 1

ProcessTheTrust Posted January 7, 2018 Posted January 7, 2018 Why? Why even try convince yourself this is even close to being a reasonable scenario? Why reach like this? Deep down you must know how ridiculous this is. Right?

Say what you want but Donahoe miles better as a GM. As he's done good things in Pittsburgh and Philly. I think he's biggest mistake he was rolling the dice on Magahee or maybe Mike Williams instead McKinnie. Yet Marv's list is a lot longer.

Tom Donahoe is a HOF jerk. I would have fired him when he blamed the fans for his mistake in hiring Gregg Williams resulting in having to fire him. History has demonstrated what a bad hire that was. You forgot Lee Evans and trading up for Losman. You’re right Marv was not a good GM. Ralph panicked and went to his comfort zone. The one constant for fifty plus years was Ralph Wilson. Mularkey new that when he took the job, as did Lou Saban, twice, Chuck Knox and Marv Levy, the only Bills coaches that accomplished anything. Mularkey left because he knew Losman was not an NFL QB.
