Corp000085 Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 so far, the bills are 0-5. if they get to 0-6, then all bets are off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please someone tell me Well, we were 4-2 in our division last year. Also, the fact is, two of our division losses were due to the sheer ineptitude of Losman, and the other two due to turnovers. I'm not saying that Jauron should necessarily be retained, nor that he didn't play a part in these losses. But the fact is that a bounce here, a turnover there, and we could easily be 4-1 in our division this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
extrahammer Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Well if he starts out 5-1 in an organization that hasn't seen 5-1 in 16 years, mix in a little alcohol and anything's possible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills_fan Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Before this season started, I figured we would be 6-2 vs. the West, 1-1 against CLE/Jax, and 3-3 in our division, getting us to 10-6. The 0-6 division record is truly disturbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet the Bills coaching staff failed to put the players in a position to win. A good coach would never give Losman a chance to lose a game at the end like Dick did with that fumble play.

I'm trying to think of the QB's name during that divisional three-game stretch at the end of October/beginning of November where the team went 0-3 (on to a 1-5 spiral from 1st to last) and pretty much costing them the division and ultimately the playoffs. What was his name? You'd think I'd be able to remember a guy who threw 5 INTs and fumbled the ball three times in that three-game stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightcrawler Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Yeah the one where they blame it on his concussion. Whether it's going to be 1-5 or 0-6, it doesn't matter. The most important games are always against divisional opponents. The only reason I can think of keeping Jauron would be for some type of "consistency" (whatever that word really means for a non playoff football team) or that there is really not an upgrade in a head coach available to Buffalo. Jauron should go...but unless Marty S., or Cowher are available and interested, I don't know. Singletary? I wish. Does Buffalo have any good connections with any top notch coordinators on some of the better teams in the NFL? As much as I would prefer Cowher or Marty S, let's expect Buffalo to get an unproven coach or keep Jauron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the fact is that a bounce here, a turnover there, and we could easily be 4-1 in our division this year. Sssssh. That makes way too much sense. Didn't you know it's a coach's fault when your second year QB extends his arms to get a first down on a QB sneak thus fumbling away the game/season? It's an excuse to blame the players. It's a fact when you blame the coaches. Where have you been? Dont give me that crap. Everyone here knew what to expect from Losman. Yet the Bills coaching staff failed to put the players in a position to win. A good coach would never give Losman a chance to lose a game at the end like Dick did with that fumble play. That's a crap argument. It truly, truly is. He's a professional QB, has been for five years now. Asking him to not fumble the ball and have it returned for a TD isn't too much. I'll bet Jauron played not-to-lose against Cleveland, didn't he? Whether it's going to be 1-5 or 0-6, it doesn't matter. The most important games are always against divisional opponents.

While you're at it, why don't you hold out hope that we'll sign Haynesworth, Peppers, and Warner while retaining Greer and Jackson during FA . Turner Gill Is not available.

They shouldn't have even let him play. He is a turnover machine in a system that cannot handle turnovers. I would have preferred Fred Jackson running the widlcat to Losman. At least that would have given us a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
