Bflojohn Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Chris Mortensen just said that the "buzz" is that Marv is going to ride to the rescue in Buffalo! Brought tears to my eyes! He is the face of winning for this franchise and I'm thrilled to hear about this news. Ralph Wilson and Marv are good friends and that might be the key to all of this, Ralph probably asked for Marv' advise, and got a proposal he couldn't refuse! Truly great news!!!

UpperDeck Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Maybe RW will ask Marv his opinion for straightening things out, GM and HC prospects, etc. I don't think he'll coach again, could possibly give him the GM position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marv was blessed with exceptional talent. It's nothing he did... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puppet Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 I think Marv could be a good Mentor to Ralph Wilson and give him solid advice on the next moves that we make. I don't see how it could hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
granitestatebillsbackers Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Kind of what Reeves is doing in Houston. Although he probably will snag one of the open coaching slots. Hey! Maybe we can get Dan Reeves! Wooooooooooooo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpperDeck Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 I would prefer Marv's opinion on replacements over giving him a job but at this point anything is an improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talonz Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Why do coaches that win almost always are belittled for having great talent? It takes coaching+talent and a little luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seq004 Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 I think he'll add him as an adviser which is a great idea. He really trust Marv and I think he'll be able to evaluate talent better than TD did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuckincincy Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 Come on now we all now if Marv gets the GM he'll name Bobby Ross HC. 549546[/snapback] Why would Ross leave Army? He's done his NFL thing; hard to think he'd care to come back to a job with whining players, daffy bosses, and impatient fans. Or was that sarcasm? One never knows...

Kelly the Dog Posted January 3, 2006 Share Posted January 3, 2006 I have heard that Marv was actually brought in to help Ralph at Shuffleboard and Bridge, and in the middle of the last game, when his partner Ralph excused himself to go to the bathroom, Marv was overheard saying, "Thank God, old boy, that's the first time I'll know what's in your hand all afternoon!"
