  1. I didn't see anything about Shaq not being a fit for Rex's scheme. Until he failed in Rex's scheme and looked horrible. His comments above appear to me like he's blaming the lack of "fit" for his performance.
  2. Why did 2014 have more "influence" than 2013? Does that mean we should give less credit to Roman in 2015 because it was only his first year and he didn't have much "influence?" These posts are just super inaccurate. Taylor wasn't available, neither was McCoy, how was he supposed to acquire them? Incognito, I agree with, I wanted him brought in back in 2014. Here you are sitting talking about how he drafted WR's and QB's (both very good investments in the modern NFL) but then talk about run specialist WR's brought in. Who was the best run blocking WR on the Bills in the last 4 years? It was Woods. The guy, you know, drafted when Marrone was the HC? We also traded in essence Stevie for Bryce Brown. Marshawn Lynch wasn't on the block, you know. And Whaley loved him some Spiller. Harvin played 7 games, most of them hobbled, in two years for the Bills, and he's the one you give credit to for the running game? That's certainly a first. And Tate barely saw the field as a WR. He was on the field for 14% of our total offensive snaps. Not to mention the inaccuracy in the bolded below... You become a good rushing team when you have a good scheme and good players. When Marrone was here, we didn't have the latter. It's hard to say he wouldn't have been successful on the ground with McCoy, Taylor and Incognito. I'd say he probably would've been pretty good.
  3. They were the #2 rushing team in 2013. Yes we did get a new OC (who was fired a year into his tenure) but we also acquired Shady, Karlos, and Incognito. Who replaced the bad 2014 crew of Freddy, Boobie and Bryce Brown. All out of the leaguers.
  4. Did we only lose to playoff teams last year?
  5. Holy smokes dude. The point was when we lost to the Pats and they didn't care, you probably thought it was because Marrone sucked. Then we beat them when they didn't care, and you STILL weren't happy. A child could follow better.
  6. But the defense allowed way less points (and yards) than Oakland. Isn't that what matters? Points scored versus points allowed? That's how we judge things, right?
  7. Right. That's why Jack Del Rio went from a .500 coach in his later tenure in Jax to a good coach in Oakland. Because he "took people from nowhere and turned them into stars." Or, you know, got a good QB. Oh and Mike Mularkey. Another "good" coach who took the #2 overall pick in Mariota from nowhere. Oh, don't forget about Jim Haurbaugh! He found Kaep from nowhere, turned him into a star, then Kaep turned back into a pumpkin and he got fired. Except for the HoFers, the QB has always made the coach. And in some of the HoFers, even they got a little lucky with QB's. What was our excuse when we played the Pats while they didn't care and still lost? Good coaching?
  8. Remember when he won the most games in a Bills season since Hurrican Katrina?
  9. Clearly the coaches believe this. So, there you go.
  10. Yes, because EJM, Thad Lewis, Jeff Tuel and Kyle Orton all had great success elsewhere. They proved Marrone was holding them back from greatness. Oh no! One bad call. Did you know Bill Belichick made a bad call once too?
  11. Yeah, Marrone really should've put the game in EJ Manuel and Boobie Dixon's hands rather than the #4 defense.
  12. We need to trade back for Cardale or Kirby is never gonna stop. Maybe if we get JT Barrett, this topic will fizzle.
  13. I thought we all agreed TT was an above average bad QB pages ago?
  14. Is 14 games of an accumulator better than 8 of a game changer?
