New Bills HC (1 Viewer)

[Preacher 1]

Just to add a small bright side, at least you can say that the Lions played better under Jauron than they did Mooch this year.

Hmmmm, 1-4 is better than 4-7, who knew?

 

[Preds]

If this is indeed true I will be so pissed off at the Bills organization. I live in Buffalo and it is now clear that we are nothing more than a joke to the rest of the NFL. I stinkin' hate this darn team. (maybe I should have waited to calm down before I posted)

No, hate is the right emotion. It's where I'm at.

why juaron over sherman?

 

[sho nuff]

because he actually wanted to draft JP Losman with the Packers, and the Bills moved up ahead of them to get him. If anyone could have made something of JP, it would have been Sherman.

Ummm....huh?Sherman wanting a guy is certainly no ringing endorsement given how he drafted for the Packers.And what in his career would make you think he could make something of the young QB? How he handled Favre during his time there?

**** Jauron is a players coach who knows the game of football as well as any head coach in the league. If you give him the talent, he will win. Time will tell if the Bills have the players, but they will be in every game and the players will know their role and perform to the best of their abilities. I believe Buffalo fans will be singing a different tune in three years, assuming of course, that Marv Levy can evaluate talent.

This just seems so fitting

Why was Jauron's 13-3 season a fluke? And when does a coach get credit for a team outperforming expectations?

An abberation from the norm is considered a fluke, therfore, a season of 13-3 is a fluke season. Even with that ONE season of 10 games over .500, you can see his career is 13 games UNDER .500. And that is a bad record...

An abberation from the norm is considered a fluke?Interesting definition there. Regardless, even if you consider the Bears 2001 season as a fluke, that doesn't mean Jauron's work was a fluke.

YOu are correct, it takes a special kind of suck to go from 13-3 to 4-12 in one year.

Hmmm...a player's coach? Sounds to me like "a guy who can't keep the inmates from running the asylum." I know you probably didn't mean to convey that, but what exactly do you mean by "player's coach?"As to knowing football as well as any head coach in the league, that's far FAR too complimentary given his record in Chicago. Color it with any brush you want but four of five seasons were losing records, with three of the four generating six or fewer wins. And for a guy known as a defensive mind, Jauron's Bears finished 1st one year [they were 13-3 that season] but were 20th or worse in points allowed every other year.

And to those who blame Shoop, let's not forget Jauron had two OCs while in Chicago...Shoop and Gary Crowton.

 

[Imedos]

I'm sure Jauron can bring out the best in Losman.

 

[3nOut]

As a Bears fan and a McGahee owner I don't like this move. If I recall correctly however, Jauron's teams have always been run first which might bode well for McGahee. Too lazy/busy to look up stats, anyone got numbers?

 

[BlueDredSo]

I want to hear who would've been the better choice, seriously. I really don't think Mike Sherman is that great of a coach. He always had Bret Favre who could keep the team in the game most of the time, except this past year because of all the injuries. I was just glad to see Mularkey out of there, he's so dull and boring. The play calling was horrific this year. He had no idea what he was doing. I honestly can't believe a team would hire him as OC, but I'm glad it was the Phins...dumbasses. I think the Bills' defense will return to their top 10 (atleast) form, and the offense can only get better. Fix up the O-line a little and get a decent DT, they might not make the playoffs next year, but I'll put $ on it that they'll be better.

 

[Cannon Fodder]

It's very simple. Wilson liked Sherman and wanted to hire him. Marv is buddies with Jauron and wanted him. Marv was afraid that Sherman was going to eventually replace him as the GM and was threatened by him so he pushed even more for Jauron. Marv Levy, the man that I actually believed was going to turn this team around is the icing on the cake when it comes to this team being a complete F'ing joke in the NFL. I hate this move so much that still at this point I get aggravated just thinking about it.

No silver lining?
