Winner winner chicken dinner!

Not only did he talk his way into a 27 mil contract, but a guaranteed 27 mil contract! He certainly got the best of who is supposed to be a good businessman on that one. But just because a person is rich, doesn't mean they are not a buffoon. Just look at Donald Trump.

Or just accept it for what it is, and move on.

16 consecutive seasons with no playoffs. Should be impossible with how the NFL is structured for parity. And a waiting list for season tickets. Hard to disagree with you.

Come on. It is nothing and you know it. Rex came in boasting about "we're going" then fails to even achieve the lofty record of his predecessor with a team that was more talented. This season was a huge failure on almost every level. No amount of excuse making changes that. It's not the end of the world, and TT showing he can play in this league was a very big plus. But please stop with the 8-8 is a good thing.

He actually is doing this. He just doesn't buy what Rex is selling is all. That's what Rex is best at, talking around his failures and making ownership and the fan base forgive/ignore said failures for at least a few seasons.

Not in Buffalo. They are sold on the fans expectations of tailgating and the fact that the team is still in Buffalo,

Father/son is different than brothers. Fathers were trying to get their sons experience and a leg-up in the business.

Maybe Rex figured that he got his retirement fund from Pegula, so why not get his brother one from the same source. if they fail, it's almost certainly the end of the line for the both of them.

The Donald on the NFL, as only he can... http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2606687-donald-trump-comments-on-officiating-in-the-nfl

8-8 so irrelevant. They sucked enough over the regular season to insure that they could not possibly win today. "Bills would have won today" is !@#$ing horseshit.

Manther, I believe you far underestimate the "don't care how they do, I'm buying seasons so long as they are the Buffalo Bills" crowd.

I have never been a fan of the Rex hiring to say the least. But firing a HC after one season, and by proxy most if not all of the coaches under him, is insane. But the pool of coaches does have some potential talent. Petine for example. Plus some coordinators worth considering. Several, in my opinion, almost certainly better than Ryan.

Well, if they were, they were set by Ryan and the Bills organization, so ...

Everyone who is saying bring in Pettine as DC doesn't understand either man. Rex is far too much of an egomaniac to let someone else run the defense, and Pettine is not about to become a puppet with Rex's arm up his ass far enough to make him speak. Also, Rex keeping his mouth shut? Really? I can't think of a realistic offseason move that would get me excited for next season. If Rex can manage to keep his head out of his ass, and the team manages to get and stay healthy, the team should be better overall. But then again the schedule is harder next season. At this point I expect another mediocre season, and if the stars align right the Bills could back into the playoffs. But excited, hardly.

10 ... you are indeed the man. I salute you

He has forgotten more about football than most "experienced football executives" will ever know. I have no idea if he wants to go that way or not, but the idea is nowhere near as ridiculous as you make it sound IMO. Fans tend to think that football is this incredibly complex thing, when in reality it is not. And the higher up you go, the simpler it becomes.

Honestly do not care. Doubt I'll watch at all until Superbowl, and only then if I'm at a party. Except for the Bills, I really don't give a rats ass about football anymore.

What makes you say that 26CB? Gillislee, though not as explosive as Shady, did impress this season. Is McCoy's cap hit worth twice the average of the top 10 RBs? If I'm Whaley and someone approaches me with a good offer and willing to assume the Shady contract, I'm all ears.

The only way this makes any sense at all is if Rex decided to keep his nose out of the defense and be just a HC. Anyone who thinks Rex is even capable of that hasn't been watching. One day into the off season and here we go

Very lucky, terrible coverage in that situation. The Bills were loose all game, you could tell. It's much easier to play, and coach, with no pressure on you. On to next season, and time to concentrate on the Sabres

Added most of ESPN.

I have never believed the Sabres started off the season tanking on purpose. But instead were smart enough at some point in the season to realize how horrifically bad they were already, and held the fire sale. Maybe you tank for one season in professional sports, maybe. But not for as long as the Sabres have been bad. To do so for that long, on purpose, would be a criminal fleecing of everyone who purchased tickets to games. Particularly season ticket holders. But regardless, hopefully enough of the draft picks of recent years become quality players and the Sabres can become relevant again within a couple more years.

Maybe this Marios plan was all along. Get the Bills to release him so he can land somewhere that doesn't have Rex as a coach. I guess we will have a better idea when we see where he lands.,
