Jdorn Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Like I said, hell freezes over. But thanks fo the vid. Love Mora. "Playoffs!? Don't talk about playoffs! You kiddin me? Playoffs!? I just hope we can win a game." Classic. Yeah I think I'm already at the acceptance stage and its getting old being frustrated so might as well laugh. My only real hopes for the rest of the year are to see the young players perform well and see the O line jell enough that they have a desire to come in to camp in better shape. Anything else for me at the moment would be icing on the cake. However my favorite icing would be a real GM and Head Coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I think the O-Line has played really well the last three games. Peters is coming on (finally). I don't mind the GM-by-committee thing. Brandon is doing a good job and Guy and Modrak are alright. But Jauron and Co. need to go. Bring on Steve Spagnuolo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 For his sake, it is a good thing that he ended up signing it rather than let it sit in the drawer of his desk after the way the team has played the past several weeks. Oh wait a minute. Did the Bills just take their first time out for the upcoming Dolphins game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keepthefaith Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 PLAYOFFS This sums up how I feel about the Bills right about now. That never gets old. Thanks for posting. Just once I'd like to hear Jauron express some angst or enthusiasm. If that happened, we'd be playing Jauron's clip into eternity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keepthefaith Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I don't think anyone doubts that this has been signed...the question is if it had peramiters..... Could be. Hope so. It would have made sense to do a deal that early if there were performance requirements to make it effective. That would have been shrewd on the part of the Bills.

If that happened, we'd be playing Jauron's clip into eternity. That was really my point in posting this clip what a contrast from stone faced Jauron vs Mora. Not saying Mora was a great coach or anything but he did certainly have passion. I think alot of Bills fans could be feeling like this as well. I love at the end of that clip the reporter is like K.

A beating in Toronto will kill their confidence and any chemistry they are developing. The future is bleak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marauderswr80 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I would doubt the validity of this, but Adam Schefter is rarely if ever wrong. Actually he has been a few times. Many times he has reported players were not going to play, so in return I would sit them on my fantasy teams, well come game time players are in uniform and play the entire game. It's happen with Portis & Brandon Jacobs. The Jacobs one, said he was going to play and start, well Jacobs never seen the field and had street clothes on for the game. Chris Brown is also known for doing this as well...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cody Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Ofcourse Jauron was given an extention. He achieved Ralph's primary objective for this year, win 5 games, ensuring the Bills will not have to pay a top 5 pick. Once his primary objective for the year was achieved, Jauron went on to ensure Ralph's other goal was met, ensuring Ralph doesn't have to fork over playoff checks & bonuses to the players and coaches. Jauron is the perfect coach for Ralph. He's cheap, he hires cheap assistants. He's good enough to prevent the Bills from getting a top 5 pick and bad enough to keep them out of the playoffs.

RShirley Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I don't think anyone doubts that this has been signed...the question is if it had peramiters..... I highly doubt that there were any parameters in place. I would equate this to asking your girlfriend to sign a pre-nup before you put the ring on her figure.....yes you would love to protect yourself, but still is a slap in the face that I don't trust you. I don't think that they would insult Jauron with any kind of parameters, not to say that I don't think there should have been. I imagine the Bills saw an opportunity to secure a 5-1 coach at the time with a contract that was probably "on the cheap". They probably were jumping for joy that they got such a bargain. His contract could have waited until the end of the season, as I don't think there would have been a long line of suitors for his coaching services, but I truly believe the way the season was going at 5-1, that Jauron's price would have gone up considerably from the point in the season in which they signed him. That is what I think the thought process was with the early signing of Jauron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
