    Re: Forked Thread: Will Dick be a good HC?

    Uninspired.

    Unprepared.

    Undisciplined.

    That's what the team was today and has been for three weeks.

    I started the season with a blank slate on judging him, but as far as I'm concerned, Dick is way in the hole.

      I still have a much bigger problem with the execution of the players on the field than I do the front office or the coaching staff.

      I'm willing to give Marv and Dick the rest of this year and 2007 to see how/if the team progresses.

        But the execution is a direct result of preparation, discipline and motivation. All of those things fall on the coaches' shoulders.

          Yup.

              Belichek was 5-11 his first year and then went 11-4 with T. Brady starting game 3 on!

              You give D. Jauron T. Brady and we are 6-1 and he is a genius, QB is that important!

                It appears that you left off talent and maturity.

                Some people are just not talented or mature enough to be diciplined executers.

                This team lacks talent. Hopefully Marv will fix that. Hopefully Dick won't screw it up when he does.


                FWIW our team has played stupidly for the 6-10 years. It has never gotten better.

                Sometimes I just think we have stupid, immature players.

                  Even the less talented players in the NFL are able to play with discipline and motivation. In fact, I would argue that they have to be or they wouldn't be able to compete with the more talented players.

                  I agree somewhat on the maturity angle but it still comes down to how the HC runs the team. If the HC is not able to "handle the kids", he shouldn't be an HC.

                  Yep, we have been playing "stupidly" for a long time, but the primary reason is the front office. We've had bottom of the barrel HCs for all that time...Man Boobs, Moo-Moo and now Dick. It's not surprising the Bills have been so crappy for so long.

                    I stayed off this topic when originally posted.

                    STill not sold one way or the other on Jauron as of now.. but when a team plays STUPID I will always blame it on the head coach.

                            You can keep standing but the ground is getting a bit shaky around your feet.

                            But seriously - you have to admit that if we go sub-.500 again this year that Dick is on extremely thin ice no matter how you look at it. He'll have a 47-67 (or so) career record and one winning season out of 7. That's a bit too much evidence to look past.

                                Well that's true. Just make sure to tie a rope around your waist and tie it to a tree cause when we hit week 8 and we still haven't won a game, the quicksand is gonna get pretty nasty.
