I never thought that. CW is not stupid.
According to the Peter Principle, he reached his level of incompetence as a head coach in big-time college. Stands to reason he would take a step back down to where he did have success.
For the record, I would be ecstatic to have him as an OC. It would be interesting to see what he could do with Brohm, at the very least.
I didnt think he would get a HC job, but his name has been mentioned as a HC candidate, even for Buffalo. So, I was thinking he would think he had a shot at a HC spot somewhere and would wait and see what happens with that before considering a OC job...
I dont want him as a HC either, but at OC he is interesting...
-
Would it be possible for all of us to agree that we never again will refer to him as Fitzy in any public forum?
It just doesn't sound the same as Jimbo or Boomer or The Snake.
Fitzy sounds kinda...well, kinda prissy.
hahahahaha...agreed...although, he looks so goofy, like a Fitzy...
-
You're right, that's the only positive thing you can say about "The Dick".
Hopefully, we can get a consistent pass-rush next season and we'll have double the INT's.
No kidding...could you imagine the impact a consistent pass rush would have on this secondary that already has 21 INTS?
I would love to see someone just finally move Maybin to LB and see what he can do...he is still young, and we dont get to see what he doesn in practice, so not ready to say he is a bust at DE, but what you see on the field looks like he would be better suited at LB and lord knows we need help there too...
-
Good point. Kelly would also take a few sacks here and there, but could still deliver on the next play. Fitz seems to have that type of mentality to not let a sack or a pick ruin his outing. A very good quality.
And one any QB of this team needs right now considering how decimated our line is...
-
I'm not even paying much attention to what you are saying because its the same bs attack ever time, OMG, dog flip flopped again , its the end of the world for poor little Alphaprick.
Let me give you a piece of advice, grow a brain. I told you before, Its a what have you done for me lately world and I could care less what you think about me and so could anyone else.
Play good and win and folks tend to say good things about you, lose and its just the opposite so shut the F%$K up dweeb.
...."dweeb"...hey, 1988 just called and they want their word back...LMAO Like I said though...flip flop all you want, but my friendly advice was to stop calling everyone morons, retards, idiots, etc if you are just going to flip flop to their side of the argument literally the next week, same week, same day, same thread, and even on occassion same post. To make it worse, once you flip flop you insult the other side...then you flip flop again and go back to insulting the side you just flip flopped from...and you repeat this process every week...
-
You really need help, trying to fabricate whole threads or how I signed up as someone else, don't you think the mods have a way of looking at the IP addresses, nawww, bet your warped brain never thought of that did it.
lol...and what exactly would I accomplish by making up this thead? Whats my motive? Really, you are desperate man...
On a side note, to those that not named you who actually read the thread...there was something else Fargas said that I forgot to put in the original post. Fargas said something that almost made me do a double take to make sure it wasnt DJ sitting next to me. In the seat across from him, there was a pilot flying back with us. He was chatting with us as well and he said this to him...
"Whats going on up there in Oakland, not getting too many wins" (Which I thought was a little blunt considering this what like the first thing he said to Fargas)...then Fargas said, "Yeah, its hard to get a win in a team game"...lmao, sounded like a Juaronism if I ever heard one...Fargas was really cool about it though...
-
As bad as the 3 years of DJ were, there was one positive mark he left on the team...our secondary. LOL, he got flamed all the time for acquiring DB's but we lead the NFL in INT's and those INT's have been big reasons we have won a couple games or been competitive in some losses.
Thats about the only positive mark he left, but at least its something...lmao
Still, in a division with Brady, thats a good thing to have going forward with a new staff. Now move Maybin to LB, start Harris at LB, and draft an LT and DE this year and we will be on our way...assuming Brohm or Fitzy can handle the starting QB duties next year (or a vet QB). I am not sold on Fitzy yet, he is easily better than Trent, but need to see some consistency out of him. Still like the potential of Brohm better, but who knows, maybe Fitzy can keep improving too into a solid starter next year, just not sold yet.
-
Or maybe your thread is all BS like you are, you mean to tell me you are just posting along and all of the sudden you remember you sat next to an NFL football player, give me a break.
lol...man you are desperate...

Just heard on ESPN that Weiss has already been contacted by 6 NFL teams to be their OC, not HC next season and Weiss said he would have a hard time arguing with being an OC next year if he is officially canned as HC at ND.
One of the things I was thinking about Weiss is that he wouldnt be open to an OC position after being a HC...but sounds like he is on board with it...I wonder if we are one of the 6 teams thats contacted him.
-
Good grief, TE's sitting on the bench so get over it. ( I actually seen him trying to get involved helping Fitz)
You guys can't enjoy a win without running a current player into the ground?
You cant enjoy a win without flip flopping to the popular belief...one week, you say Trent needs to be benched, and then literally in the same thread an hour later you say Trent is the man and Fitz is no good. Then you go back to riding Fitz when he gets a couple wins in a row...then when he loses you go back to Fitz sucks and Trent is the real starter of this team...now Fitz has a good game and you are back on Fitz. In fact, in a post to me, you actually called Trent a glove wearing Mary just the other day...come on man, you just got on someone for in this thread for getting down on Trent, yet you are referring to Trent as a glove wearing Mary while trying to insult me in a thread the other day...
I get people change their minds, but you do it every week man and sometimes several times in the same week. No one does it at the frequency you do...and many people besides me point this out...
Let me help you with your highly predictable reply to this...you will bring up how I used to support Trent, but that was in 2008 when we almost all that he showed promise...problem is he never improved...ever...and began to see him for what he was and realized it was all smoke and mirrors and he doesnt have what we thought he had. And I based that on a season of his play...what you do is change your mind after each game, each play, each post, each thread.
Here is a piece of friendly advice...if you are going to literally change your mind every week, several times during the week, and even several times in single thread, then fine...but maybe you should lose words like moron, idiot, retard, etc etc from your posts about other peoples opinnions considering you frequently flip flop to their opinnion anyway...

Keyshawn played under Dungy for 2 seasons. Keyshawn was accquired in 2000 and Dungy started in Indy in 2002. Dungy had Keyshawn for the 2000 and 2001 seasons.
Your are right...my bad, I was thinking of Keenan McCardell, who was the WR Gruden brought in...still though, Dungy had Brad one year and the TB offense which needed WR help and McCardell was a significant acquisition. Still though, all the other points still apply, and dont under estimate how good McCardell was...
-
Your attempt to marginalize every poster on this board is low. Everyone on here is entitled to their opinion, even though most have never coached in the NFL, or probably college. There are still a few intelligent posters who are right far more often than wrong.
Tony Dungy could not win in TB with a stellar defense, which won not long after he left for Indianapolis. He is an outstanding man who has endured tragedy and triumphed mightily. That said, offensively his teams weren't stellar until he inherited Peyton Manning.
I feel Dungy benefitted from the same thing Marv Levy did in Buffalo: Bill Polian. BP is one of the finest football minds the NFL has ever seen, and his collection of talent is nothing less than spectacular. Dungy was a good coach regardless.
BTW, it's stratosphere.
Lets take a closer look at the Dungy resume before we make any rash decisions on him...not trying to be argumentative, but the way Dungy gets credit taken away on here is astonishing...
Before we disregard Dungy's influence on the Indy offense, keep in mind before Dungy got there Payton was the A Rod of the NFL. He choked, and so did the Indy offense every year in the playoffs and couldnt get over the hump. Many people said he was going to be more like Dan Marino than Montanna...a guy who can compile stats in regular season but wasnt going to win the SB...
Another side note...TB did win the SB the year Gruden took over Dungys team, however, the one area of the team that had different perosonnel was the offense. Gruden had a few more pieces added, one of which was Keenan McCardell at WR which everyone knew was the position they desperately needed help at on offense.
Most importantly though, and its always over looked, Gruden had something Dungy didnt have the majority of the time he was in TB...a good QB. Brad Johnson had only been there one year under Dungy, and in that one year the TB offense had no real playmakers on it and very little at WR. That offseason, TB acquired McCardell, and that gave the offense and Brad a major boost as well...
So whos to say Dungy wouldnt have also reached the SB and won that year with the extra offensive weapons TB acquired once he was fired...
Add in the fact that TB also lucked out and faced Oakland in the SB where several TB players have publicly stated that it was a massacre because of the incredible advantage TB had knowing the offense inside and out and that Oak arrogantly didnt change their offense despite facing the guy who coached it for several years. They said they knew what they were doing before they even hiked the ball.
And finally, TB went down the tubes in Grudens second year and missed the playoffs. TB would never be relevant again. No Dungy team, in TB or Indy, has severly digressed like that...
So maybe, before people take all the credit away from him we should take a closer look at the before, after, and current state of the teams he coached and built and give him the credit he earned.
-
He's a RB, how could he face Shanahan's offense? Maybe he just meant the best offensive coach his team had to face.
Well considering he sits on the sidelines and watches Shannahan disect Oaklands D on a regular basis may have something to do with it...lol
Sorry Steely, I didnt start challenging his opinnions on a plane while he was graciously talking freely with me...lmao
Like I said, take it for what its worth...just a casual conversation where he said he has heard that Shannahan's interest is real and that from what he knows of him he seriously doubts its some kind of leverage ploy.
-
Consider these facts:
1)Shanahan, Homlgren, Martz and Trestman (all names being thrown around) have one thing in common - they were OCs for the SF 49ers. They are West Coast Offense guys - CALIFORNIA - Odds are great that if any of them comes to Buffalo he immediately names Edwards the starting QB
2) The "Experts" leading the "Oust Edwards move" are Fewell (0 years head coaching experience who knows squat about offense), TO (the ultimate "throw me the ball quarterback killer") and Jim Kelly (Buffalo's egomaniac voice whose is afraid of anyone succeeding at the QB position in Buffalo)
And people think Tebow is the answer??
Bottom line is that the Bills have a great nucleus of young skill players in Edwards, Jackson, Lynch, Evans, Hardy and Nelson. They have great depth at wide receiver, play solid defense and solid special teams. They have had 12 players go on the IR, changed OCs 1 week before the season, changed HC mid way through the season and have played with what might be the youngest OL in NFL history and certainly has to be the most banged up OL. Jim Kelly has the answer - throw Edwards under the bus and blame him for the entire 2009 debacle and draft Tim Tebow. Kelly wants to fuel the Buffalo mentality - "What might have been - What could be". How about if we deal with "What IS!"
hmmm...this is your second post (and both posts were in reply and support of a dog14787 post and full of as much gibberish as his)...weird, someone who just joined the board suddenly jumps on the dog14787 band wagon...lmao...pretty clear its you dog14787 supporting yourself and pretty lame you would have to do so...
Beside the point...please explain to the board how Edwards can be labeled a young skill player when he has shown very little skill to this point...the only coach that has said anything positive about Trent is Martz, and Martz also thought he could make a good QB out of Harrington in Det...how did that work out?

So I was flying home from Portland back to LA from visiting the folks for Thanksgiving and I had to change planes in Oakland. When we boarded the plane from Oakland to LA I wound up sitting next to Justin Fargas who had the weekend off after his turkey day game and was going to LA to see family.
Let me say, real nice guy. So we were chatting candidly about football and I wont discuss the things he shared about his time with Oakland, but we did get to chatting about the Bills and the rest of the NFL too. I asked him what he thought about Shannahan and he said a couple things I thought I would share...one, he said dont count Shannahan out, he was one of the best offensive minds he's had to face in the league and still is. Then he also said, everything he has heard (and from what he knows about Shannahan as a person and coach) is that his interest is real in the Bills and not just some smoke screen or ploy to get leverage on other teams.
Take it for what its worth, none of that is ground breaking news, but I found it worth sharing. Like I said, he was real nice and I enjoyed talking pro and college ball with him.

You keep starting this same dumbass BS over and over, if you can't reply to my post without starting crap about TE then don't post, I don't give a F$#k what you think, get it, so get over yourself and no , I don't believe you played football, I asked you before to offer up proof, but to no avail and no, flag football doesn't count, its all BS just like you are...
LOL...you are insane...and like I told you before, I dont air my personal info on a message board and dont really care if you believe I played or not and I am not about to get into this with you again...
But you never answered my question...whats your deal with making up make believe concussions for JP and Trent?
-
You try to convince folks that you played football and yet think its impossible for a player to get a concussion and not go on record with it, do you just make things up. Did you watch the game yesterday and see the hit or are you just that dense. JP took a hit hard enough that if it was you, you would be saying, "wheres my mommy" good grief man what in the hells wrong with you.
Its hilarious that you can't post a reply without going back to the same old same old, did I mention TE, no, so why bring him up.
Maybe its because you still haven't gotten over your love for Mary, you know the same Mary you compared to Tom Brady and Montana(posted below) and then threw a hissy fit when I compared him to Jim kelly.
I tried to treat you like a normal poster, but your not, you have a one track mind buddy.
Dude, you are hilarious...the last thing anyone would ever accuse me of is loving Trent...but thats beside the point.
And yes, I did play football and you clearly did not and you clearly have not had a concussion and I have. Let me tell you something a player with a concussion is serious and they arent going to be able to hide it well. You just called me a idiot because I questioned your concussion yet you 100% invented it...there was no report of a concussion during the game or after the game...you have ZERO evidence of any concussion, yet this is the second time you made one up, but some how I am the moron.
And lets get something straight about that comparison...One it was from 2008 for crying out loud when we all thought he showed poise in response to someone elses post. And yes, its no secret the traits of Brady and Montanna were poise and intelligence and back in TWO THOUSAND EIGHT those were Trents ONLY promising traits. In the exact same quote you have there I even said he is no where near their caliber and the jury is still out on whether he will be any good. I NEVER SAID HE WAS AS GOOD OR BETTER THAN THEM LIKE YOU SAID ABOUT HIM WITH KELLY...
-
Even if it changes a possible HC candidate's mind like Mike Shanahan, Brilliant.
Dude, you are so sensitive...a incoming head coach is isnt going to care 2 craps about a former player saying what everyone already knows...Kelly isnt even part of the organization for one...a future HC cares exactly ZERO percent about what you are whining about here...
-
Our starting QB has a QB rating in the 50's, no I'm not joking, are you?
Losman's stats today 21-35 for 193 yards , zero int and a win in the UFC Championship game.
(While probably playing through a concussion plus JP makes a shoe string tackle that saved a TD going the other way)
LMAO...where did you get the "concussion" from when you say probably playing through a concusssion? Is this the same made up concussion you already admitted giving Trent last year when you said you have no proof or anything but you feel Trent suffered a second concussion last year that he nor the team told anyone about as justification for his terrible second half of the season
Whats with you and making up make believe concussions to validate outlandish claims of greatness of bad quarterbacks?

The more I read your posts, the more I think we have all been takin' hook, line and sinker, by Crayonz.
I used to think the same thing until I came to the startling conclusion this dude is for real...lmao

Players that should see snaps/plays designed for them simply to evaluate them.
S.Johnson
Hardy
Nelson
Meredith
Maybin
Harris
Ellis
These are all guys you mentioned. The first three dont need a lot of PT (I assume they wont get it with Lee and TO) but just 3-4 throws a game designed for them may be enough over the next feew weeks. Harris/Maybin cant be any worse than what we have, and Ellis cant be much a down grade either. Tha problem is those are the coaches decisions, Fewell is coaching for a HC job, or a DC job somewhere else - not likely to happen.
Yeah good points on Fewell and I forgot Chris Ellis on my orignal list, but San Jose Bills Fan pointed him out. I didnt even consider the Fewell factor you just mentioned...that definitely diminishes any hopes of this to any relevant degree. Like you said, getting any relevant reps for Hardy and Johnson would be tough, so a few a game is about the best we can hope for. However, we really should be getting Nelson some significant playing time and at least the majority of the snaps on passing downs.

Outstanding movie. I am gonna follow this kids career as long as he has one. I recommend everyone go see it. PS, it further pisses me off that we didn't draft Oher
I just saw this movie today and I have to agree 100%...an astonishing story and I too will be following this guy.

This is your spin Magox, and it is obvious to anyone who takes the time to read your posts. To say that the Packers offensive line isn't even almost as bad as the Bills, is flat out wrong. I have watched the majority of Green Bay's games this year. Just like Alpha I go and watch the games every week at the same bar, that has the ticket. You have no idea what Aaron Rodgers has to do, just to survive behind that line. It's nothing short of amazing.
Your dilemma is how do you convince others that most of those sacks are his fault. The problem is that anyone who watches the games sees right through your crap. The truth is Buffalo has a piss poor line much like Green Bay's, but probably slightly better. Aaron Rodgers would make alot of plays behind this line. Sorry to burst your bubble. TE certainly didn't get helped behind this line but his play speaks for itself.
The line seems to hold up much better for Fitzpatrick. Why do you think that is?
Edwards 181 attempts 21 sacks
Fitzpatrick 108 attempts 6 sacks
Kind of makes you wonder how bad it would look if Fitzy had been handeling the starting duties all year.
Here is a nice read on the packer line. If you don't trust me or the other posters who watch these games, just research it for yourself and you will find alot more articles just like it.
Like I said Magox, you do this with regularity on this board and I am not the only one who sees it.
One more note on what Pushthepile just said, Fitz has been playing behind a line more injury plagued than what Trent stood behind while taking far less sacks...
-
Let me answer it like this
I said:
Simple, that there is a misconception of GreenBays line being as bad as what some people claim it to be based on the sack totals.
then you said:
Are you saying Green Bay has a good O-line despite the sacks, or that the sacks are Rodgers fault & not the lines?
How can we can continue in a rational manner when you just make **** up?
For a full explanation http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/index.php?...t&p=1649836
Huh? He asked you a very precise question and yet you respond with gibberish rather than just answer the question...
His question is: Are you saying Green Bay has a good O-line despite the sacks, or that the sacks are Rodgers fault & not the lines?
What is so hard about answering direct questions for you? I dont see anything wrong with his question...
Tony Dungy said it...

More accurate? Have you seen Youngs accuracy and TD to INT ratio? I dont know that "accurate" is a word many would use to describe Young...
His resurgence is a nice story, but he still has a long way to go as a QB...lets not forget how incredible Chris Johnson has been in a lot of these wins Young gets all the credit for...I hope he does become a good QB, be a nice story, but I wouldnt say he is there yet.
