Buckeye Eric Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Yes fans, it is that time to take a look at the coaches that TD overlooked when hiring GW. Below are the head coaching prospects which fans wanted TD to hire and have used to bolster their arguments that TD is a failure as a GM. John Fox - Panthers (1-6) (22-21 career). One year wonder? Marvin Lewis - Bengals (2-5) (10-13 career). How did they beat Denver anyway? Mike Tice (5-2) (20-20 career) The 5 teams they have beat are a combined 15-21 while the 2 teams that beat them are 12-2. Has never made the playoffs. The next 3 weeks (at Indy, at GB, Det) will tell the tale. Contender or pretender? In the end, TD was really in a no win situation. No matter whom he hired he would have been critisized for making the wrong choice. COMING SOON: Draft Choices: Are SB Winners Built by the Draft?

We can not give JF a pass because the team has had injuries and then not give MM/TD the same regarding injuries to the Bills OL in traning camp/early season that have slowed OL development.
