Pass the Pipe Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 What is the consensus out there, disaster or positive move? There must be some friction at OBD because things need to come together quickly for college scouting and building the staff and they are taking a lot of time. The interviews in the last 2 days were nothing more than fulfilling compliance matters with the league. What bothers me is this guy is 1 and 7 against Sherman head to head.
PromoTheRobot Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Wait and see...give the huy a chance, but I would prefer Sherman. PTR
Corp000085 Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 it would not be the end of the world, but i'd certainly be pissed. Sherman's obviously the #1 guy, so getting jauron is getting b-grade talent and/or cronyism with marv. both are bad things.
MartyBall4Buffalo Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 After seeing some of the people who've been hired recently Jauron would be fine with me. I'd also prefer jauron over a dom capers or jim caldwell. I could live with Sherman/Jauron or Haslett anyone else I'd guess I have no choice but to deal with it, but I wouldn't like it.
gmanbfan Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Negative response from me. Would it kill this team to get a winning coach? I also think Sherman is a good idea because of his GM experience. Marv can't last forever (can he? ) Get Jauron as you defenive co-ordinator and if the team wins under Sherman and Jauron does a good job then there can be promotions for everyone! Sherman as GM and Jauron as HC!

Regardless of the money, players want to see the organization moving in the right direction and I don't think Jauron provides that image. I believe Sherman had a good relationship with Favre who is a legend in this league. Business decisions need to be made without emotion and I believe Marv is practicing cronyism in this situation.
macaroni Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Even though I'm rooting for Sherman ....... I think it is more of a whole package kind of thing. So before I would deem hiring Jauron as an utter failure, I want to see who the assistant coaches are going to be.
Renfield Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 I know what ya mean, Macaroni. Of the two roles they might tap Jauron for, I'd be more disappointed if he was DC. He didn't impress me doing that job in the past. As a HC, the choice would be a downer, but I could still hope they compensate by hiring strong assistants to shape the identity and scheme of the O and D.
Hawerchuk10 Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Either one should be better than Mularkey
BillsGuyInMalta Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Would I be angry about it if Jauron got hired? Damn straight I would. Do I understand that I, as a fan, dont have anywhere the amount of football expertise that Marv Levy and Ralph Wilson have? Damn straight I do. So I'll reserve judgement on Jauron...I wont lie though, if he becomes our next HC I'll be a dejected Bills fan.

/dev/null Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Jauron is one of those guys that excels as a Coordinator but is in over his head as Head Coach, much like Mularkey and Capers If, and thats If, the reports are accurate and its down to Jauron and Sherman, I'd much prefer Sherman
