Bills Can Coach

Not that it will matter We stink and it's not necessarily the coach's fault. I'm not sure how involved he is in the personnel decisions, but our organization has assembled a pretty crummy team. Of course, this includes the assistant coaches, which I'm assuming Jauron had some input into. Then again, he may have been limited by budget constraints. Funny thing is, our assistant coaches are so bad, I can't imagine who they could possibly promote to replace Jauron that could do any better. I will say that special teams coach Bobby April has done a pretty good job and a few weeks ago, people said he would be the likely replacement...but he's 55 years old and has never been anything but a special teams coach. I would have to say his ship has sailed in regards to being an effective NFL head coach. We really need to blow the whole thing up and start over again... starting with the owner if he won't pony up for a decent GM!

Shanahan...

I'm not a huge Shanahan fan, but if we make him GM, he will clearly be better than anyone we've had since Butler left. Plus, based on the way he was dismissed in Denver, he probably has a chip on his shoulder. In fact, he may be the best candidate out there...I guess it wasn't so hard to talk myself into that...

Yup, I figured the chip on the shoulder thing was his best asset. Plus, he knows a thing or two about football...

Although after Elway retired 10 years ago, he only won 1 playoff game, and his record over the last three years he was in Denver was .500. Granted, .500 would be great for the Bills right now, but we did manage to finish 7-9 the three previous years. Denny Green anyone?

Actually, I mean Russ Grimm. Can we get Russ Grimm?

Nah, you want Denny Green. You might not win a Super Bowl, but it will be wildly interesting.

After this last gig in Arizona, I'm not sure how eager Denny would be to patrol the sidelines in Dec. in Buffalo.
