Congrats to the New Orleans Saints

It's always nice to see the little guy win the big one. A hearty congratulations to the New Orleans Saints, and their outstanding fans over at Canal Street Chronicles, for their Super Bowl XLIV victory over the Indianapolis Colts.
It's hard not to be happy for former Bills cornerback Jabari Greer this morning. He's a good player and a good guy, and now he's a champion. Same goes for former Bills safety Pierson Prioleau. Heck, I've even got a soft spot for Anthony Hargrove, who misbehaved his way out of Buffalo but found a pretty excellent way to redeem himself last night.
Gregg Williams? Eh... congrats, I guess. Now please stop talking about teams you used to work for.
I don't necessarily ache for former Bills GM Bill Polian, because the dude's got a ring. But it's gotta sting to be known, at this point, as the guy that's 1-5 in Super Bowls, with a win over - wait for it - Rex Grossman's Chicago Bears the only highlight. The same goes for Peyton Manning, easily this generation's best player, but without the hardware to cement that status - and now he's got a loss to a (slightly) inferior quarterback that thoroughly outplayed him, too.
The off-season is officially upon us, even though it's been invading Buffalo for well over a month now. We'll get to that this afternoon. For now, do what you're doing at your office this morning and get your final thoughts out on Super Bowl XLIV and the 2009 NFL season.

The only two things that kept me from rooting full-blown for the Saints was Gregg Williams and ol’ “Douchebag” Shockey.
Good to see a team get off that ever-shortening list of “teams to never win it all” though.

I agree on Williams and it is kind of strange that Polian and Peyton have the records they do in the big one.
Someone else that should have been a Bill—Drew Brees—what a truly wonderful man and one of the few role models left in sports. I agree with him—it was destiny yesterday.

Saints as role models
From the 2nd pick in the draft to Super Bowl champions…what a difference having Aaron Brooks and Drew Brees as your quarterback makes. Take note, Buddy Nix. Stop-gap quarterbacks won’t do and regardless of how difficult it is to find one, it’s your job to land a franchise quarterback capable of winning a Super Bowl in Buffalo.
Aaron Maybin is DeMarcus Ware 2.0.

Here! Here!
Forget Pennington, Thigpen, et al. Let’s get our own Brees (or Manning). If we’re going to do it, let’s do it once (finally) and do it right.

Patience might be needed. It took Brees an underwhelming few years in San Diego and then 3 years of building up in NO to finally hit this plateau.

I would say that Brees is still on the rise. His work ethic and increased play over the last few seasons leads to believe he is only going to get better. Not a plateau but still on the climb in my mind.

I really don’t want this franchise to bring in a guy who’s had maginal success throughout the league. Thigpen may have been Gailey’s “guy,” but he didn’t exactly produce wins. I’d rather see them roll the dice on someone fresh, even if that freshness comes from a raw Brohm tryout in camp.

So...
What exactly did Gregg Williams say? I really don’t like him, but I can respect his ability as a coordinator. Changing schemes every quarter was brilliant.

Changing schemes every quarter was brilliant.
Yes it was, I have no doubt, Parcells influence on Payton came into play on this.
That was the problem with the Bills glory years, the opposition knew what was coming and planned to stop it, the Bills felt they did it so well, they dared the opposition to stop it, and unfortunately they did, while Parcells took the view we are going to show you something we have never done before and do it effectively.
You can see the same thing with the Colts, they went to their best play on the blitz (went to well one too many times) and Porter cashed it for a pick six, Bill Polian=GREAT evaluator of talent. Not so good on coaches. That is why he is 1/6 on superbowls.
There's not a wide receiver who is fast enough, that J.P. Losman can't overthrow him on a fly pattern.

And I have no doubt.
He would be 0/6 in the Super Bowl, if they faced someone off the Parcells tree instead of Lovie.

Good For Gregg & Bite Me, Mr. Bill
Although a life-long rooter of AFC teams in the SB, I am happy Gregg Wiliams has his moment and happy Bill Polian loses again.
Yes, Willaims deserved to be canned after three yeas as head coach of the Bills but he and his family did not deserve the brutal personal attacks he got from local immature “fans” and “sportswriters.” It was way over-the-top. Williams handled all of them with class and dignity – more than anyone of us could have – so I’m glad things have worked out for him.
Polian – as the Indy fans know, too – is without a doubt, the opposite: an arrogant, I- know-everything-and-you-fans-know-nothing little prick who treats everyone beneath him like crap. Yes, he’s a proven winner as GM but as a human being, he’s rotten. Also. this is the guy who sabotaged the Colts excellent chances of being the first 19-0 team, by tanking the game with the Jets and then told everyone to “shut up” if they disagreed with his decision. Bill lost his fifth Super in six starts? Gosh, it couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy!
I’m sorry the AFC didn’t win, but there was some justice done last night.
If the Colts went into the SB undefeated, they’d most likely still be 18-1 today. Why give an opponent even more of a reason to knock the snot out of you in the big game? I have no problem with the organizations’ decision to play it smart.

Specifics
This board is into specifics. Not generalities.
Ask anyone on this board about decisions that Jauron made that were horrible and you’ll get specific examples.
If you can’t do that with Gailey, then no one’s sold and your argument is hollow.
I could make a list a mile long..................
but I already told Brian I would drop it for now…………plus it doesnt matter what my objections to the guy are…..he’s the coach for the next few years atleast.

I agree, and it's too early to start bashing on a coach with a 0-0 record in Buffalo.

If that onsides kick fails, the game completely changes and people are probably talking about how much of a mistake Sean Peyton made. I love the call, but it was no different than what Bellichick did on that 4th-down call, where he got lambasted by everyone.

If we end up with Vick, T.O., Richie I., and Porter….that is really pushing the dbag density limit for one team.
Gailey also took over a team that was loaded with Talent......
Payton had to take over a team that was decimated by all sorts of bad juju, plus a city that was recovering from one of the worst natural/man-made combined disasters EVER…..
Payton also has WON in the Playoffs……..while Gailey did not.

Your argument for Payton is karma based? Laughable. The team his first year coaching had just added Drew Brees, Colston, Bush, Jahri Evans etc. Saying he turned around that 3-13 team that had played a 16 game road schedule with Aaron Brooks as QB is giving Payton far too much credit. A sock monkey could have coached that team to a winning record.

Yeah he added a Drew Brees who was unknown because of his shoulder injury..

Reggie Bush (who many said wouldnt do squat in the NFL)
And who had even heard of Jahri Evans before the last couple of years?
I guess its impossible to say that Payton made the team better…..because apparently (according to your amazing wisdom…..a sock puppet could have coached that team)
I get it….you cant stand the fact that Im not enthralled with Gailey……but your constant sarcastic and weak attempts at taking shots at me are pathetic………
But please carry on……because Im not laying off Gailey anytime soon.

Nor-Cal
Points well taken about Gailey but it is what it is, he is the Bills HC. After being teased with the names of Cowher, Shanahan, Shotty and even Frazier (my preference) the hiring of Gailey was a major disappointment. They tangled a juicy rib-eye steak in front of us then let us eat meat-loaf!!!
That being said, I believe the Bills overall are moving in the right direction with the coaches that are being hired and of course the front office changes. If the changes at the top turn out to be the right moves then the team will improve. Just remember the undertaking isn’t going to turn the Bills around in 1 year it will take at least 2-3 years to be consistently competitive with the top teams.
'To get something you never had,
you have to do something you never did.'
exactly.......he is what he is.......
I know its gonna take some time for this train wreck to get fixed…….im not expecting him to turn it around……….obviously Im not expecting him to do much period…….I would kill for Gailey to prove me wrong…….probably is, I doubt he will.

Polian
Yes he’s 1-6 in the Big Game. But with his massive success building teams that make the playoffs on a consistent basis, I’m sure any team in the league wouldn’t mind having him calling the shots.
No motivation....
Didn’t really have any motivation to watch the playoffs this year… 10 years of ineptitude kinda made me a little bitter this year… Great to see the Saints win though… The storyline was cool and it was great to see the “French Quarter” lookin’ like Mardi Gras !!!

Those Saints did it
And true to form, they returned a pick for a TD. Ballgame. Nice to see Jabari Greer get a ring, Brees too.
Note to Galiford: Polian was fired before the Bills’ last Superbowl appearance, so he’s actually 1-4 in the big one.
Get the Bills back to the big game!
im just a lil sad
that the saints have more super bowl wins than the bills….and thats depressing.
Buffalo, that's where it's at baby. - Adam 'Pacman' Jones
Entertaining
It was a hard hitting game from start to finish. Many of us thought it was going to be a wide open shoot-out but it ended up being a Dink & Dunk passing attack from both teams. Both teams were content on hitting the short passes and moving the chains. I can only remember a handful of plays over 15 yards.
The Saints got into a flow while the Colts receivers dropped a few key 3rd down passes that stopped drives. I’m not sticking up for Manning but his receivers deserve some of the blame. The Saints deserved to win because they made the plays and were the better team…
'To get something you never had,
you have to do something you never did.'
I think Collie alone killed 2 or 3 drives later in the game. Manning did just about all he could, the Defense broke in the second half and his receivers all turned into Braylon Edwards at the worst time.

Closest two score game I've ever watched...
Especially since up until that pick-six, everyone was thinking, not will Peyton tie it up but how long will he leave on the clock… and one does not plan on picking Peyton off, of course.
And that onside … I saw that, I decided the Saints have to win after that, because anyone with the brass ones to call that play deserves to be rewarded for it. (Though I thought it was odd how ESPN considered ‘challenging successfully’ for the 2-point try a key play. I mean, three coaches out of four would risk a timeout in that situation, at least as far as I know coaches.)
Congrats to Saints
Unfortunately I was at hospital on Sunday. I’ve just watch it. Great game!
I like when a crazy coach like Payton win. Congrats to Saints, specially for Greer, who is a great guy.
