Expand Yes, but no need to throw turds at him, in my opinion. Everything that happened before is a sunk cost and we’re in good shape now. I love the Pegulas and also appreciate Ralph for keeping them here as long as he did. 4
BillsPride12 Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 He's definitely having more luck with his football team than his hockey team 1
Rico Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 It took Pegs 2 years to wake up, thank God he finally did. 1
Rigotz Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 (edited) Is this meant to be a slight to the Pegulas? We made the playoffs 2 out of the last 3 years with the current coaching staff. Cheer up emo kid. Not sure if you remember, but we missed the 20 years before that. Edited January 8, 2020 by Rigotz 1

Expand Really, can we just pretend the "pompous one" wasn't really here. The bottom line is Terry and Kim realized their mistake going for the splash (bellyflop) HC hire. Now they've selected Sean and Brandon who have returned hope to Buffalo. And even if you don't agree with everything Ralph did (benching Flutie), he made sure the future of this team and new ownership stay in Buffalo. For that I will be eternally grateful. 1

reddogblitz Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 Could have been 3 if Orton and Coach Marrone had been able to beat the 2-14 Raiders. That's one of the things I really like about McDermott. He doesn't lose to the duh-huh teams like Buffalo teams in the past have done frequently. Now if he can just learn to beat good teams ...

Expand Yeah but bottom line... he was a terrible owner and much good as he did keeping the Bills in Buffalo, he tarnished the franchise badly after firing Tom Donahoe. Some of the decisions and hiring that Ralph made were really bad. On 1/8/2020 at 12:41 AM, reddogblitz said: Could have been 3 if Orton and Coach Marrone had been able to beat the 2-14 Raiders.

Expand As much as everyone says the Bills “backed into the playoffs” in 2017, they did so by winning enough and beating the teams they should have beaten. There’s numerous times in every coaches tenure where teams lost important games. About beating good teams - they’ll only go so far as their QB Edited January 8, 2020 by Phil The Thrill

Expand You can be grateful for some of the philanthropic contributions to WNY but still acknowledge that he truly made some terrible decisions as owner that resulted in One Bills Drive being disfunctional and the laughing stock of the NFL.
