Coryell had a decent NFL coaching

His first NFL head coaching job was with the St. Louis Cardinals in 1973. The franchise hadn't been to the playoffs since it was in Chicago in 1948, but Coryell guided the Cardinals to NFC East division titles in 1974 and 1975. His five-season record with St. Louis was 42-29-1, including 0-2 in the playoffs.

He then coached the "Air Coryell" San Diego Chargers from 1978 through midseason 1986. His record was 76-60, including 3-4 in the playoffs. When the NFL adopted rules to encourage passing, no coach took more advantage than Coryell. His stars included quarterback Dan Fouts and receivers John Jefferson, Charlie Joiner, Wes Chandler and Kellen Winslow. Fouts, Joiner and Winslow are Hall of Famers, and their coach should be, too.

Coryell had a decent NFL coaching record (114-89-1) but his greatest contribution to the sport was his genius in the passing game. The high-flying Chargers were the most entertaining show in the league and helped make the NFL America's new favorite sport.

Stock We Already Thought Was Bankrupted: Chan Gailey

Bonus points if you even knew that Buffalo's coach was Gailey. Once the offensive coordinator for the Pittsburgh Steelers, we were convinced that Gailey's career was over as a head coach after his brief stint with the Dallas Cowboys.

It's not like this is a man that has succeeded wherever he has gone. He wasn't a smashing success with the Miami Dolphins as the offensive coordinator there for two years. The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets had at least some modest success, but ultimately, the team fired him in 2007. The Kansas City Chiefs held on to Gailey for a year as an offensively coordinator before canning him before the start of the '09 season.

So why did the Bills jerseys bring him in to coach their team? We may never really find out.

First round NFL draft selection C.J. Spiller is the only player to get excited about on this team aside from Byrd and perhaps WR Lee Evans. We know that Spiller's speed in second to none for running backs on this team, and if Gailey doesn't make sure that he touches the ball at least 20 times per game this year, he should be fired on the spot.

There just isn't enough talent anywhere on the field for Buffalo to make a huge impact, particularly in a division in which the Jets and Patriots are the kings of the castle.
