ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. - Who'll replace Chan Gailey as head coach of the Buffalo Bills?

Cynics might believe there's a better chance of beach weather coming here in January than the Bills shelling out either for a hot prospect out of the U.S. college ranks, or one of the big-name ex-NFL head coaches purportedly available.

And those cynics probably are right. Retreads and not-quite-readies are the Bills' usual suspects. But who knows. No one thought the club would dump $100 million in Mario Williams' lap either.
