Like A Mofo Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Remember 1986: The fan-fare surrounding Jim Kelly's arrival. I still remember that 86 opener agains the Jets very well, sold out Rich, I remember seeing a sign in the crowd "Kelly is God" in the stands...even though it was a 28-24 loss (I think that was the score) you could sense that was just the beginning of something good. Now there was a lot of pressure on Jim to perform, but will there be just as much if not more on Losman? We all know about the 1st round pick that Dallas will receive, it will probably be a Top 10 pick at the worst, what if that pick is a franchise player? Then what if Losman is another RJ?? How far will this set back the Buffalo Bills as a franchise?? Plus the GM's reputation is totally on the line with Losman, if he fails, sayora to TD. Am I losing my mind, or am I reaching for anything because we are 1-5?? Thoughts?
Lori Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Kelly didn't have Internet message boards to deal with in 1986, either...

daquixers Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Hate to break it to you - but - Ralph Wilson LOVES Tom Donahoe. Donahoe has brought in more money and players than any other GM the Bills have ever had. Ralph keeps saying WE HAVE THE PLAYERS - he keeps blaming the coaches - not the signings ... TD is here to stay. Sorry.
gantrules Posted October 25, 2004 Posted October 25, 2004 Losman will be under MORE pressure than Kelly not matter what the Bills do from here on.

I can just imagine some of the nasty nicknames people would've come up with for Harmon.....
