Good post. Was thinking the same thing. It started off great withe Pettine little shaky with Hackett to me but we'll see. Then the "no stone unturned" thing kind of fell be the wayside. Cronies are one thing. Populating the staff with people who will "be on the same page" doesn't mean jack if they suck as coaches. Crossman?....really?!? I know Marrone says he will oversee all facets of coaching but it will be overwhelming when your coaches blow.

thats ten times funnier than the T.O one

We could do worse than Milliner. coupled with Gilmore it give Pettine two talented CB's he can rely on like he had in New York allowing him to send some blitzes. I would not be upset with that pick.

Well we are certainly not stealin that from the yets.

I admit I am known as an overall doom and gloomer here. I will say that for the first time in a while I am genuinely excited about this teams direction. I will temper my enthusiasm with a wait and see attitude but I am optimistic with the young blood and direction being infused in running this ball club,

Sean Landetta ( with one bar facemask) Martin Grammatica.

Ok I'll temper my feeling of more support from the players for the coaches if you guys say so.

Ok I know its a week in and they just left probably most are still decompressing afte locker clean out day. Just wondering why there hasn't been much out of the roster good or bad. Was kind of hoping to see a "ok this is the new guy lets let him know we're on board" kind of attitude. Maybe I'm reading too much into it. Anyone else wanna chime in?

now this hire I am sure about. Pettine is a young aggressive coach and his defenses with the jets have been stout and aggressive even with the rest of their circus going on. This is a great move.

Ok My Two cents. I can't help but feel Marrone's credibility is going out the window with this hire. He said and i quote " I want to bring in coordinators with NFL experience" ummmm......??????

I just have the sneaking suspicion Russ will want the Pub. If it happens we will know the strength of the Power Brandon does have because if it happens it will be all him.

Now that Russ is running the show and being the marketing guru,anyone care to wager that we end up on Hard Knocks this season?

I have one thing to say lets look up how many times Fitz targeted a receiver over 15 yards down the field and give me the completion percentage. I don't have that stat handy (sure someone will) but I bet its abysmal. An Nfl QB cannot miss that many throws down field and some really badly and expect to keep defenses honest period.

Marrone was just made. The AFC East sleeps with the fishes

I support this 100% Pettine is a savy young coach and say what you want about the jets, their defense has been pretty stout under Ryan/Pettine. Great move if we get it done go get him Doug!

Seriously It kind of makes sense Reportedly Russ and Chuckie are friends so Maybe thats what He was doin in Buffalo " alledgedly". Awfully neighborly of Gruden to help us out if true.

With Gruden's endorsement of Marrone maybe the Gruden in Buffalo rumor was for the New Bills Brain trust to get Chuckie's input???? Thoughts?

Greg Williams is a complete and utter scumbag and I want no part of him.

Agree. Marrone may not of been open to being just our OC with Lovie being the HC which made much more sense considering our Defense is the bigger problem. Guess we will see. If Lovie really liked it here he would be a tremendous choice for DC.

As little as he is more like Rivendale

+100

Lovie might be too butthurt after the HC snub but Lovie Smith for DC and gimme Hue Jackson for OC.

This team needs Lovie for this underachieving defense as long ad we get a good OC I approve so did you hear that Bills I give my blessing so thats all you need

First off Billsfan4evr doesn't need to apologize to you and what right do you have to criticize or ask a mod to remove his opinion? He's a Bills fan like the rest of us and each and every one of us have earned the right to have ANY opinion of this pile of crap of a football team we want. The fact that we are still here after all this time is a miracle in itself. The man has every right to his opinion as do you and as do I.

Thats good news. I was beginning to worry they were going to be closed minded and just go with whisenhunt. Glad to see them commiting to being thorough. LV
