Dick Jauron

Melted Faces and Freezing Lakes

Melted Faces and Freezing Lakes

by Ryan

On Tuesday afternoon Western New York let out a brief cry of jubilation: Dick Jauron was no longer head coach of the Buffalo Bills. I, however, was a little less enthused. In fact, my exact words were something to the effect of “Why bother?”
Now I’m not one of those guys that blows this Bills off after [...]

Unexpected Holiday

By Chris

So Dick Jauron is finally out.
Bills fans can celebrate that. The castration has been a long time coming.
Let’s face it, this season is lost. Firing Jauron gives the franchise the opportunity to start over yet again.
Perry Fewell will step in as interim head coach. If Ralph Wilson doesn’t want to pony up the big bucks for an [...]

And now, for something more uplifting…

And now, for something more uplifting…

By Jon

This beauty of an illustration comes from the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle and WGRZ, which have teamed up on an in-depth look at the Bills’ “Decade of Dissapointment.”
Seriously, you need to check this out. They have a special section on the D and C site set up, complete with audio, video and an interactive audience (You [...]

Troubled Trent

By Chris
Maybe we should have been more concerned about this:

Then again, maybe not. I mean there have been plenty of bad ceremonial first pitches, right?
But this isn’t the mayor of Cincinnati. Trent Edwards is an NFL quarterback.
If we really want to go back to where we started worrying about Edwards, I think we go back to this moment.

That was a [...]

My Heart Skipped A Beat

By Chris

I saw this headline on BuffaloBills.com and I literally jumped out of my chair at work.
“Jauron on Twitter”
Dick Jauron…on Twitter? Holy crap! Yes!
Is there any doubt that Jauron would have one of the blandest Twitter pages in the history of Twitterdom?
Maybe we’d actually get an explanation as to what the hell happened at the end of that Dallas game. [...]

Final Thoughts on Wild Card Weekend

by Ryan
- I like the elongated moments of silence on the Fox broadcast, but not because they are useful. I just like that I don’t have to listen to Joe Buck talk. Does he think he’s being a good announcer by not describing anything that’s happening, or does he realize that the majority of people tuning [...]

The Company Line

By Jon

The word of the day: continuity. Ralph Wilson wants continuity. Chris Kelsay wants continuity. Duke Preston wants continuity. What do the fans want? Definitely not continuity.
In other news, Lindy Ruff says the Sabres need to stick to the system.
Hey… at least we get another year’s use of the “We got Dick for less…” tag.
UPDATE: Try reading a few [...]

Sort of Says it All

I feel like we are in a holding pattern of some sort until news of Dick Jauron’s future is disclosed. Already we’ve seen some coaches get the axe today, so maybe it’s not that far away. You could argue that some coaches better than him have been let go, including Eric Mangini. Say what you [...]

One Last Time

by Ryan
Your Dick Jauron Losing Face for the last time this season. It’s been fun watching it progress from… actually, it’s always the same.

I would hope this would be the last time we ever have to post something like this, but I’m not taking anything for granted. If Ralph Wilson is satisfied with another three 7-9 [...]

Jauron Officially Extended

From the Worldwide Leader:
Updated: December 15, 2008, 1:32 AM ET
Despite going on a 1-7 slide that left the Buffalo Bills out of the playoffs, coach Dick Jauron signed an extension on Sunday, sources told ESPN.
The deal runs through the 2011 season. ESPN and the NFL Network reported on Oct. 26 that the coach had agreed to the deal. [...]

Threepeat

by Ryan
One season.
Dick Jauron has made a career out of one football season in which his team went 13-3 and lost its first playoff game at home.
That’s actually pretty impressive. Getting a few million dollars and employment with two football teams for a few months of incredible luck is about as good as it gets in [...]

We Got Dick for Less…

by Ryan
Time is short today, but I really think you need to see this. I’ll be honest, I never listen to what Dick Jauron has to say because he is one of the most boring people on the planet, but this was especially incriminating.

Dick Jauron makes John Madden sound like Rousseau. More on this later, but [...]
