Mikie2times Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 We will try and run Jauron out of town. It's not a prediction, it's a guarantee. When bad things happen here we blame the QB and the head coach. Justified or not, this team will not turn the corner until we get longevity in both areas. Just look at Dallas and the Patriots. If Parcells AND Belichick can't win with Drew then how could we? These are two of the all time greats, who arguably have even more to work with then the Bills did. When things went south we not only rode our QB out of town, but our coaches to. Now we need to change systems, and enter "rebuilding". Just the type of recycled strategy that's led us to one of the worst records in football the last 5 years. What exactly is Jauron up against? I'll show you. Since the year 2000, 72 teams have made the playoffs. Out of those teams 45 have posted a TD/INT ratio of 1.5 or higher, or 63%. Out of the other 37% or 27 teams that made it only 4 or 15% went onto the playoffs the following year with a TD/INT ratio of 1.5 or lower again. Those team's all had elite defenses. Among them are 2000/2001 Ravens, 2000/2001 Buccaneers, 2000/2001 Dolphins, and 2001/2002 Steelers. ZERO teams achieved this feat a 3rd time in a row. The point of all this is simple. The great coaches that sustain success also have QB's who throw a lot of TD's and a small amount of INT's. The last time Buffalo had a QB with a 1.5 TD/INT ratio or higher was 2003. Drew did it once, and never could repeat that success again. Before that, Flutie. If JP doesn't turn into who we want him to be, and we don't find someone that can, it's almost certain Jauron will be run out of town. This despite that fact that no coach in the last 6 seasons has been able to sustain a playoff team without a QB that throws for a 1.5 ratio or higher. This season Jauron not only will have to deal with that, but also has to deal with a completely new team, and system. When we win, we should be thankful, when we lose we should look to grow from it. You point the finger at Jauron when we have a QB that can get it done, and were still losing. To do it before then would make us the same recycled team we've had. Just give Dick a chance!

marauderswr80 Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 I love coach Juaron, I think he will do wonders for this team once they grasp his system and style of play. Remember he dont have his type players in their yet, give him some time! You know with a play here and there this team is 4-1......thats how I look at it!

5 Wide Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Everyone has bone head plays and off days, coaches included. What isn't disputed is that the team has a different look and belief to it this year. I've seen many more things I like as opposed to dislike thus far with Jauron so I'll put off calling for his head for a few more weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 If Parcells AND Belichick can't win with Drew then how could we? The Bills went 9-7 with Bledsoe at QB in the toughest division in football during Mularkey's rookie year. And he's a meathead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did well against a bunch of grocery baggers the last half of the season to salvage that record. To this very day he keeps proving himself as incapable of using the resources he's given.

BuffOrange Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 I still don't like the "go for it" in NE. Otherwise I have no problem with the coaching thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennesseeboy Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 nonsense. The last two coaches deserved to be run out of town for taking clear playoff caliber talent and running the team into the ground through god awful personnel decisions and bad coaching. Jauron has made some darn good decisions and we are 2-3 with a team that many considered one of the two or three worst in the league, and I suspect they will go into the bye with a 3-4 or 4-3 and that's pretty darn good. Nobody is going to run DJ out of town. Was this game against Chicago bad? yup...badly coached yup (but overshadowing bad coaching in this game was bad playing.) that happens. Get up..dust yourself off...get ready for the next game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunTheBall Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 I think the majority of fans are willing to give Jauron a fair chance, and that means years. You could tell the difference in the feel of this team from the first game of the season. That starts from the GM on down. You have to give credit to Marv for beginning to change the losing attitude of this team which have been a bunch of losers for 7 years now. Once they start winning games regularly a winning attitude will set in which will help in those tight, close games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 <hijack> To this very day he keeps proving himself as incapable of using the resources he's given. Yeah except for the fact that in 2 of his 3 years as an O-coordinator his teams finished in the Top5 of NFL offenses. But he's obviously incapable of using the resources he's given. As for his current situation, nobody on this planet could succeed with resources like Bennie Anderson, Jeno James and LJ Shelton. </hijack> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at it year to year it's unlikely your team will go to the playoffs unless your QB throws 1 1/2 TD's for every INT. We almost made it in 04 despite not reaching that level. The fall from grace the following year is pretty much the exact same thing every other team experiences. I like Jauron more then Mularkey, but Mularkey got rode out of town because he couldn't accomplish something very few head coaches have over the last 6 seasons. Who's to say JP won't continue to struggle with the TD/INT ratio, like this whole team has the last decade. I'm pulling to stick with him for consistencies sake, but the odds are still against him, which means that odds are still against Jauron surviving. Jauron will not survive if JP doesn't. That is unless Marv bucks this trend. Just wait, if Greggo gets his chance again and has a QB, I bet we will regret the day we let him go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunTheBall Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Mularkey got run out of town because he completely lost his team in only his second year and the team quit on him, period. RTB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayFinkle Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Who is calling for Juaron's head? Personally, I'm not shocked or disappointed by the loss. The Bears are head and shoulders better than any team in the league right now. I expected the Bills to get destroyed, and they did. I think they learned though, and they'll be better for it.

The last two coaches deserved to be run out of town for taking clear playoff caliber talent and running the team into the ground through god awful personnel decisions and bad coaching. 799860[/snapback] Whether or not they deserved to be run out of town remains to be seen. As the stats clearly indicate you don't experience consistent success in the NFL without good QB play. If you do, the overwhelming majority of teams have lost it the following season. The coaches we ran out of town had a QB that neither Bill Parcells or Belichick have done crap with. Both are Super Bowl winning coaches, and both have had superior talent then the Bledose led Bills teams Mularkey and Williams had. The only person that would tell you otherwise is TD before the start of each year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2020 Our Year For Sure Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 <hijack> Yeah except for the fact that in 2 of his 3 years as an O-coordinator his teams finished in the Top5 of NFL offenses. 799866[/snapback] And once upon a time, Jim Kelly went to 4 superbowls. That doesn't mean he's relevant in today's NFL. Whatever Mularkey had in Pittsburgh is long gone now. The league has passed him by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After he left and they returned to what they do best they won the Superbowl. Now in the last 3 years he has: 1) Alienated his team 2) Had in-fighting on his staff 3) Piloted some of the most dis-jointed offenses in the league 4) Completely mis-managed a QB situation 5) Under-utilized two upper echelon RB's As for his current situation, having a good RB, good defense, good tight end, and a top flight receiver not to mention a former pro-bowl QB,the offense should at least show signs of competency against bad teams. PS nothing screams "I know how to use my team" like having a rookie wide reciever with a cast on throwing a pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever Mularkey had in Pittsburgh is long gone now. The league has passed him by. 799878[/snapback] Uncoincidentally Marv Levy is considered a great HC. I defy people to come up with examples of HC's that had success for an extended period of time without a great QB. I could come up with 100's of examples of great HC's with great QB's. The relationship isn't independent for some of those names, but for many it is. Still we expected/expect Gregg, Mularkey, or Jauron to right the ship no matter what happens at QB. Not how it works folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
