  1. I don't doubt that was the plan--with or without Rex. I expect the Pegulas to go "shock and awe" as their first act(s) as owners. Might not win them many friends among their 31 other 'partners' but I get the sense they're going to spend/trade for a name QB somehow, someway (probably Cutler, possibly Bradford)...
  2. Must have something to do with the common core...
  3. Gives a whole new meaning to "It's on like a MOFO...."
  4. Well, he took over a 3-11 team and they won the division (11-5) three years later. Not too shabby...
  5. BS call. The Gunner was the guy who hit him...
  6. http://www.pro-football-reference.com/coaches/KnoxCh0.htm Not at all...
  7. Yeah, that's a better descriptor.
  8. IMO, Carroll's enthusiastic, not a prick. It's a nuance, to be sure, but I don't get the sense of ego / swing'n dick that sexy Rexy gives off...
  9. Swagger is as swagger does. I'm trying to think of a sucessful HC that fits that mold, as opposed to the stoic, in control types...
  10. Agreed. NFL coaches sometimes think they can 'fix' things, when they'd be better off adjusting schemes and making guys comfortable...
  11. Gregg-o worked out well with that, IIRC...
  12. Yes, you could see the wheels grinding in Fitz's head that year.
  13. How does that translate into W's again?
  14. http://espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/story/_/id/12150566/nfl-rex-ryan-took-wrong-job-head-coach-buffalo-bills This guy (never heard of him or his awards) comes off as a major league douche playing to the NYC 'drunks on the barstool' croud...
  15. Or did his big personality cause them to be star struck? I guess we'll agree to disagree KTD...but it should be a fun few months, either way!
  16. Great game. Would have loved to have had a 'Jerry Jones shot' at the end. But I can see some big changes to the reply rule (and reffing in general) next season...
  17. Yeah, that's about how I see it. Especially worried about the undisciplined part. If a team reflects it's HC's personality, you can expect a lot of emotion but but also plenty of WTF...
  18. He worked wonders with Geno, so why not...
  19. Agreed. Soap operas are only good for selling soap...
  20. I'll live with the hire because I'm a Bills fan first. But all of these comments seem to reflect "Rex Ryan, the Personality" rather than "Rex Ryan, the HC." Personally, on game day, I'd rather have a 'Hoodie-type' than a 'Guy in the Hood'...
  21. Loving your coach is nice, but not essential, IMO. Being focused, methodical and in control...now there are characteristics I'd like players to get from the HC...
  22. True. But Norv Turner could almost say the same thing.
