Rico Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 ... one of two things: 1. Either Ralph is senile and/or close to being broke, and can't afford to swallow Jauron's contract -- never mind he could recoup that loss in a turbo second by selling the naming rights to the stadium. 2. Ralph is a genius and wants the product to tank so badly as to lessen its value on the open market, making it easier for a local investor(s) to buy the team and keep it in Buffalo. Losing to Cleveland twice like the Bills have in the last 10 or so games cannot possbily go unpunished. 3. Ralph once again has no viable contingency plan ready in the (predictable) event that something like this season would happen (see: cluster!@#$ following TD's dismissal)
Red Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 A legitimate reason he might not fire him is because he doesn't have an appropriate replacement ready. A month ago, we'd have said Bobby April, but his unit has been a big part of the failures this year. It may not be all his fault, but the message that would go with promoting him would be a bit off. Good point. Although I truly think promoting April would just extend the same mentality on the team that already exists. Coaching and GM'ing on the cheap has got to be over with. until then, this will continue.
