  1. Pretty sure when Fitz did it the Defense got 4 picks. Tends to help as well. EDIT: Double checked, yeah 4 INT's, one for a TD and we still only won by 3 points.
  2. I know a few of you still follow this guy (I do). Joe Chenelly ‏@jchenelly 21m21 minutes ago There's a lot of confidence w/in @buffalobills org that @TyrodTaylor will sign extension before 1st preseason game. #Bills #BillsMafia 1 retweet 4 likes
  3. yeah, those 5 plus McCargo and Manny Lawson
  4. We have had 5 of the top 10 from the '06 draft 1 Mario Williams 2 Reggie Bush 3 Vince Young 8 Donte Whitner 10 Matt Leinart
  5. Yeah, Rex really threw him in the deep end during preseason
  6. IDK if Moshermw shouts, but he started a thread about a week before I was a member. As for my homerism, I told Vic Carucci Tyrod would be our starter on twitter the day he got signed and I bought a custom jersey on May 6th, well before he was announced the starter or jerseys were available. And yeah Jaur, I'm an alum who was a student while Tyrod was there.
  7. I remember conversations in the shoutbox about how he was here to compete with Tuel for a PS spot and he'd be lucky to win. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt though and assume they were just trying to agitate me
  8. Went Wilder and Ragland, but I could see the argument for any improvement at LB, S, and/or RB Honorable mention to a possible upgrade at PR/KR (Javier Arenas maybe?)
  9. You do realize that every time someone says F-Off to a cop and the cop does nothing it isn't reported, right?
  10. Shamefully, or shamelessly? Asking for a friend.
  11. God forbid fans want to look at a team that has won 43 games in the last 4 years as a model for success.
  12. I get where you're coming from, and I definitely don't think Rex is the best coach in the NFL. I do think he's good enough to warrant 4-5 years though. I'm just tired of the constant turnover. Last year this board was so sick of the offense going 3 and out, well our coaches are 2.5 and out and that's even worse imo.
  13. First, both our offensive and defensive schemes are complex, and take time for the players to settle into. The offense improved from years previous, but due to a multitude of factors the defense regressed. Fortunately, defense is what Rex is known for. Second, of the 12 playoff teams last year, the average tenure of the HC was 6.33 years and the median was 5 years. 3 second year coaches made the playoffs, but 2 of those 3 teams were in divisions that had no other teams with a winning record (HOU & WAS). If NE has taught us anything this millennium it is that consistency at HC and QB, combined with an established scheme, trumps talent. You also bring up his W/L record prior to being hired as if it has any bearing on his current tenure. Lot of factors go into W/L including Coaching, GM, Roster, QB, etc. Rex's record in his time with the Jets was 46-50 (0.479), and in his first year with the Bills their record was 8-8. Belichick's HC record prior to joining the Pats* was 36-44 (0.450) and in his first year with the Pats* their record was 5-11. Am I saying we're going to go 11-5 and win the Super Bowl behind our 6th round QB in year 2 because Rex is Belichick? No, of course not, but I also doubt you would have been looking to run Belichick out of town in his second year. Let's just see how things play out and see if the schemes continue to settle in and expand.
  14. I'd like to see him treated in a similar manner as Marvin Lewis.
  15. This made me think we signed him
  16. Apparently they polled a massive population of ~500 people. I have seen people argue the sample size.
  17. Even if all Cardale amounts to is an EJ clone he was worth the pick. EJ is not under contract after this season, and he's not worth a new contract.
  18. He says Cardale will get a test drive if we're out of contention, then predicts that he will start in week 17 (aka we're out of contention by week 16)
