jrfife22 Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Jauron....As head coach, Jauron compiled a career coaching record of 35-46 (.432). Sherman...During that time he posted a 57-39 regualar season record with four playoff appearances.
silvermike Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Playing devil's advocate: Brett Favre vs. Shane Matthews, Cade McNown, Jim Miller, Kordell Stewart, Chris Chandler, Henry Burris and Rex Grossman.

Hardy Pyle Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Jauron. I like what I hear about him and that he is a defensive minded coach.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Playing devil's advocate: Brett Favre vs. Shane Matthews, Cade McNown, Jim Miller, Kordell Stewart, Chris Chandler, Henry Burris and Rex Grossman. 573986[/snapback] Doens't that also prove that although Sherman DID have the luxury of one of the best QBs ever to play the game, on the flip side Jauron had SERIOUS offensive issues? Look at how many QBs he ran through...I'd have serious doubts about this defensive guru's ability to help our crappy offense. To me, Sherman gives us the best chance to return to decent play the quickest. Didnt Marv say his goals were to win the Superbowl as fast as he could? Definitely wouldnt get there by bringing in a guy who has failed twice now at putting together a decent offense in Jauron. That may be a bit harsh considering he only had 6 weeks as Lions HC, but still...doesnt give me much confidence in him.
Maguire's Beer Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 I wish Art Shell was in this mix as well. Then we'd be selecting from three well-regarded candidates with past HC experience, all of whom had won divisions.
jpizzy01 Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Has anyone seen the way Jauron looks....seriously....wow. I dont want him to get the job just so I dont have to look at him. Seriously, tho, my vote is for Sherman!
34-78-83 Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Comparing guys by records alone is an extremely dangerous method for picking a coach. Just like with players, a guy does NOT win or lose any games, he is merely a part of the whole, and it's the team ONLY that carries the win/loss record. If I like Sherman (and I do) I'm gonna point to his game day coaching adjustments, his ability in close games, his team's discipline and his ability to work with his staff along with "his" record.
jrfife22 Posted January 19, 2006 Author Posted January 19, 2006 yea jpizzy is right u cant go ugly lol

34-78-83 Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 then why do coaches get fired on there record..... that plays a HUGE part of it 574029[/snapback] They don't. They usually get fired for multiple reasons including the record. Certainly never just due to record alone.
Jukester Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Sherman. It's a no-brainer, imo. Now whether the Bills will make the obvious choice......depends on the musings of a couple of old guys. Also salary might be factor here as Sherman was making over $3 mil at GB. Ralph's history says he won't pony up that much for a head coach.
PromoTheRobot Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 This is a pickle. Sherman is the obvious choice with his won-loss record. The question about Jauron is can we trust Marv Levy's judgement if he selects his buddy? If you assume Marv knows what he's doing, then there is something about Jauron that makes him qualified besides his W-L record. I really hope it's not a $$$ issue. I would be terribly disappointed if Jauron was hired just because he's cheaper. I'd also be unhappy if Sherman was passed over because Levy feels threatened by Sherman asking for more say in personnel issues. The Bills have to pick a winner, and right now, I'm leaning toward Sherman. There are more plusses than minuses with him. PTR
jrfife22 Posted January 19, 2006 Author Posted January 19, 2006 i just think sherman is hard to pass up he just had one bad year..... and that was because he lost his top 3 running backs and 1 wr so i just think u cant pass that up
