    Re: Bills fire entire coaching staff

    We should bring the Bills ST coach, Bobby April, back for a second go-around in the Burgh after the inevitable Ligashesky & Amos Jones exodus.
    Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

    Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

    We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

    We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

      OT: Bobby April Fired

      According to PFT, the Bills fired their entire coaching staff, including Bobby April. I'm not sure if it will happen, but I'd love to see him replace Ligashesky.

          I'd love to get Bobby in the Burgh. IMO, ST's were the biggest reasons why we aren't playing next weekend.

            Honestly, I think our fourth defense (most notibly the secondary) gets that honor. That being said, April did call for the suprise onsides that coach cowher tries getting all the credit for, and I always liked bobby april, so I'm all for it.

              - OK April called for them, but how many others did Cowher say no to?
              Maybe April called the 5 successful ones, but did he call for 100 and Cowher said no 95 times.
              I'm not a Cowher over-supporter, but I think this is too big of a pat on the back for April.

                    I've got my votes in for Bobby April as Special Teams Coach and Chan Gailey as O-Coordinator.

                    Damn, Christmas is over
                    As many on this site think ... The Rooney's suck, Colbert sucks, Tomlin sucks, the coaches suck, and the players suck.

                    but Go Steelers!!!
