Hardy Pyle Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 For such a hard position to fill, he was a gamer.

Stl Bills Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 If you go to Takeo's website and go to the Q/A forum with Takeo..someone asks him what one player he wants lining up on his side on Sundays. His answer....Pat Williams. I thought for sure he'd say Fletch; just shows me the amount of respect everyone on our defense had for Pat. Pat was always one of my favorite Bills but I never really fully appreciated him untill last year when he wasn't here.

Thailog80 Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 I bet if you went to Tom Donahoe's website- he wouldwish the same. 631175[/snapback] No he'd say Eddie Robinson.
Buftex Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 For such a hard position to fill, he was a gamer. 631159[/snapback] I am still trying to get over the Bills letting Joe Cribbs go to the USFL! And now this!
Chalkie Gerzowski Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 No he'd say Eddie Robinson. 631178[/snapback] I remember when he stopped the elusive one, Chad Pennington.
JDG Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 For such a hard position to fill, he was a gamer. 631159[/snapback] What's coming up next week - and I can't believe we didn't sign Will Wolford post? What I'm saying is - ain't this kind of old news?
IDBillzFan Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 I remember when he stopped the elusive one, Chad Pennington. 631460[/snapback] That's an awfully crappy memory. But I discovered that when a Jets fan brings up that topic, it's the ideal time to bring up the time Dan Marino pulled the fake spike at the two or three yard line. He goes to the line, points to the ground repeatedly like he's going to spike the ball, and everyone on the field wearing Jet green that moment stopped playing, waiting for the ball to hit the ground and stop the clock. Chad may have juked Eddie, but Marino juked the entire Jets defense.
Wiz Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 I am still trying to get over the Bills letting Joe Cribbs go to the USFL! And now this! 631458[/snapback] Ha!! I still remember the espn telecast after Cribbs left, with Berman projecting bad things for the Bills in the near future. Just reminiscing.
jarthur31 Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 For such a hard position to fill, he was a gamer. 631159[/snapback] That proved to be a disasterous mistake. Letting Ted go when TD first got here was also a mistake.
socalfan Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 You folks must be all women, dragging up crap from more than a year a go is just too much.
Buffalo_Stampede Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 What hurts the most about Pat is 4 years 13 million. That is crazy. Marv doesnt like to let players of that importance go, Moulds is finding that out the hard way.
Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 For such a hard position to fill, he was a gamer. 631159[/snapback] Well that shows what happens when you have a bad HC and very bad GM in an organization like the Bills.
kasper13 Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Just another spectacular HOF move by TD. With the cap going up to over $100+ million, 4 years/$13 mil for Pat was a freaking bargain. That's why the Bills are in the position they are in now. Thanks again TD.
Nanker Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Chad may have juked Eddie, but Marino juked the entire Jets defense. 631509[/snapback] Yeah, and Hardy juked all of TBD with the news of Pat Williams resigning. I thought he was still playing somewhere. My bad.
Marv's Neighbor Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 You folks must be all women, dragging up crap from more than a year a go is just too much. 631590[/snapback]
DPR4444 Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 I bet if you went to Tom Donahoe's website- he wouldwish the same. 631175[/snapback] I'm TD would blame the local media for running Pat out of town.
2003Contenders Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 I will have to say that of ALL of the mistakes that TD made, this is the one that I will have the hardest time forgiving, mainly because it was the one descision that I ABSOLUTELY could never justify. You can still argue that the Bledsoe trade was a good one, and it certainly looked pretty good at the time (and for the first half year). Who would have guessed that Mike Williams would have been such a bust? Even with both coach hires, some of us thought that TD was bringing in up and comers. But letting Big Pat walk -- especially when the Vikings did not out and out overpay for him -- was just asinine.
