Can't say i'm surprised to see this. In a way, I'm happy. This guy totally lost control of the team. No one had any confidence in him. Losing to frickin Miami was the big one! Blowing that lead to New England....sweet effing jesus!

    I really liked him, but many things have changed since 2000 and they have yet to have a decent, consistent offensive team, well maybe in 06. What has remained constant is Billick. Defense has always carried the team especially the year they won the super bowl. It's interesting considering they hired Billick for being an offensive genius from Minnesota. It never really worked out.

    The sad part is they will get a new head coach, and then get another washed up QB. McNair out McNabb in.

    Just keep him out of Miami...I was so glad to see they started swinging the axes down there today as well, with Randy Mueller being fired as the Fins GM.

    Other than gaffing that time out call w/ the Pat's, you guys WOULD have won. I'm NOT trying to rub it in, on the contrary, the Pat's really owe the 'Perfect' record to that 1 call.

    p.s.: THANK YOU!
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    I'm a bit sorry Billick is gone but the team needs a new direction like the Orioles do. I know! Maybe they will get a *real* quarterback! Now there's a novel concept. What am I thinking? It like expecting the Orioles to get *real* pitchers. Ah, yeah, sure...
    Be gentle, I'm new to all this...

    The time out was called by Defensive Coordinator Rex Ryan. He called it before the play went off due to the right players not being on the field (so he says).

    What killed us and handed you the game were penalties. Billick lost control of the team. I think this was one our worst seasons, if not the worst, for penalties. No discipline at all!

    It's time for change. As far as QB, give this guy Troy Smith a chance. The team just seems to like this guy and have confidence in him. He did pretty good yesterday. Give him the starting spot next season and let him run with it. McNair is done. Boller...christ...lets not go there.

    What we REALLY need is an offensive line. If we had Tom Brady or Payton Manning, they'd suck **** big time. No blocking at all.
    No excuses!
