Guest BackInDaDay Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 having been part of that famous Holmgren staff which included Gruden, Marriucci, Reid and others. This was a goal oriented group which set it's sights on accomplishing the individual tasks necessary for the success of the entire team. I don't want someone with experience, I want someone with the 'right' experience. Someone who is organized enough to implement their systems and flexible enough to manage them. Someone who is mature enough to work with his superiors without being intimidated by them. Someone who has evaluated talent, assited in securing it, and helped develope it. Out of all the names I see in the current hat, Mike Sherman is by far the best fit. He may not be the most passionate coaching candidate available, but passion only lasts so long... just ask some of the long-married posters on this board.

bobinaz Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Reading the latest on interviews, it does look more and more like Sherman has the edge. OBD has him scheduled for an interview, but only informal talks with Haslett so far. Hmmmmm???? Bet if they can get Sherman for the right price, he'll be the man. I'm not overly impressed the Jauron being a candidate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he compete at the recent Westminster Kennel Club National Championships? But I see nothing wrong with picking a coach out of a hat! Presto Change-O!

BuckeyeBill Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I don't think that Wilson can be stingy now. If he doesnt' get a good coach and RIGHT NOW... his legacy will be tarnished. He better pull out the money for his next coach and for key free agents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 The 'right price'... yep, that's always been a factor with Ralph and coaches. 570672[/snapback] I think you're right, historically speaking (i.e., pre-Donahoe). Unless Ralph was really telling us a bold-faced lie last week, however, he apparently placed no restrictions upon TD with respect to salaries paid to the Bills' coaching staff over the past five years. I truly believe that Ralph now wants to win -- badly -- and will not let $$ get in the way of that. At least, that's what I keep repeating to myself over and over, trying to put a positive spin on the future of the franchise I love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billieve. Billieve. On the count of three you will awake and adore your owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ganesh Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 And he can bring Jim Bates with him to be his Defensive Coordinator... That guy can coach in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beat the Pats with a useless bunch of Dolphins, and bolstered the Pack's D last season. Might also help us get a hook into Grady Jackson, who could step into Fat Pat's old role next to Adams. Jackson dropped Rosenhaus for Angelo Wright. Now, this might have been a problem for TD (Wright is Fat Pat's agent), but Marv should have a clean slate with him.
