JohnC Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 I agree that Newsome is the best in the business but please list the mistakes Brandon has made so far. CBiscuit97, No one is blaming Brandon for the ineptitude of the organization. The issue BillsVet and I are referring to is the structure of the organization. The front office under John Guy and Tom Modrak have done a poor job. They have been the primary scouts for almost a decade, which includes the Tom Donahoe era. Why are they still employed? Where is the accountability. Is Brandon's acting as a true GM who has the ability to hire and fire? I doubt it. Major decisions regarding staffing are brought to the aged owner. It was Ralph Wilson who hired Marv Levy to take over for Donahoe. That was a disasterous decision. Marv Levy said that his role was to act as a facilitator. He said that he wanted to create a collaborative environment. He was more successful in continuing on with the losing environment. The structure of the organization was instituted by the old school owner. It is a failure. It has been a failure for a long time. When you are rich, old and stubborn you do what you want to do, not what others tell you to do. Al Davis and Ralph Wilson are a quarter century behind the times. Until the ownership changes with each quixotic organization nothing will change.
