keepthefaith Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Hire someone to lead that knows football not some marketing guy... That looks like an improvement over what we have now.
Heels20X6 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Hire someone to lead that knows football not some marketing guy... Schottenhiemer has rumoured to already sign with the Cleveland Browns. You snooze, Bills fans lose.
cale Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Petersen did a great job with the Chiefs - but lately the game has passed him by. I'm for finding the rising star GM. I think that guy is none other than Chris Polian in IND. Whether he would come is another question. Greg Gabriel in Chicago would be good. Charlie Casserly did a good job in choosing the talent for the Texans. Phil Savage is a great talent evaluator and is from the Ozzie Newsome tree. Someone from the Giants front office would be good as well. I'd also take AJ Smith - he's a true and true football guy. Or Buddy Nix. Also Floyd Reese has a good track record. He is fiery though - so expect him to be gone in about 3 years. While we're at it, can we fire Littman and Overdorf? C
RayFinkle Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Hire someone to lead that knows football not some marketing guy... You do know that Peterson fired Marty right?
Alphadawg7 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Hire someone to lead that knows football not some marketing guy... Peterson didnt build a real good team in KC... Marty wants to be a GM in Cle, not coach.
GhostsOfTheRockpile Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Peterson?!? Seriously?!?! Is he an improvement over Brandon? Probably. But that's about as far as I'll go. In the guy's 20 years on the job, KC has won three playoff games, none since 1993. Their drafts are pretty bad, if you go back and look at them. Don't get me wrong, just getting to the playoffs would be a relief at this point. But we could do better (if Ralph really wanted to... which he doesn't).
Picnic Table F'er Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Yay! It's crazy suggestion season again on TBD.
RJ (not THAT RJ) Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 You do know that Peterson fired Marty right? I am sure he does not know that.
thewildrabbit Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Hire someone to lead that knows football not some marketing guy... I could think of a dozen guys I'd rather see as the next Bills GM OTHER then Peterson! There is a reason he was just fired,he took a decent team coached by Dick Vermeil and handed it to Herm Edwards who then began rebuilding a team that was just rebuilt. No freaking thanks! I'd rather see Charlie Casserly as GM or better yet Bill Cowher as GM and head coach but Ralph won't pay more then 2 mil so we are stuck with Jauron.
KnightRider Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 There's a guy I went to school with, named Dennis Abraham. He played center in high school, I played nose. If you are looking for an up and comer, he started with the Bills in the mid 90s, and followed John Butler to San Diego. He's Director of Pro Scouting for them according to their website. Given his rise in the Charger organization, he is going to be some team's GM soon.
Bill from NYC Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Marty wants to be a GM in Cle, not coach. Sounds good to me. Just get him here, please.
Preston Ridlehuber Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Marty has said he wouldn't mind being GM, VP for his old student Bill Cowher. Now there is a tandem that might get me to renew my club seat package.
Coach55 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 The team doesn't need a new GM. They just need a competant coach. I would take a garbage can with a hat over Jauron.
IndyJay1234 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 How about Jim Kelly for OC!! I mean the guy called his own plays... Kidding... Sorry I could not resist..

You're only half right. They need a competent coach AND a GM... period. Not a new GM, A GM. This team needs someone with some football intelligence picking the players and someone with some football intelligence leading said players.
jms62 Posted December 16, 2008 Author Posted December 16, 2008 I am sure he does not know that. No I don't know that and obviously you don't know what happened either. He was not fired, he resigned. He continues to have a very good relationship with Carl Peterson.. http://www.kansascity.com/sports/story/938735.html
