YoloinOhio Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) Marrone coached bush for a few years with Sean Payton.... I think he saw a few ideas on how to use him. Guess not then Well maybe he can help Hackett. Edited January 27, 2014 by YoloinOhio
NickelCity Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Skov is a very good player--just not the style I'm looking for as he's very similar to Kiko. I'd like a bigger run-stuffing LB as a compliment to Kiko...we could do far worse than Skov as a LB prospect though... Hmm. I wouldn't compare Skov to Kiko. In fact, I'd describe him as a run-stuffing LB who would nicely compliment Kiko. I don't think Skov will be able to regularly drop into coverage in the NFL...
GunnerBill Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 I agree with what others have said about a "change" from a 3-4 to a 4-3..... it's not really a change at all. We did play some 3 man fronts in 2013 but it was still a lot of 4 man fronts... I'd expect Schwartz to lobby hard for a big run stuffing MLB in the draft.
GunnerBill Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Marrone coached bush for a few years with Sean Payton.... I think he saw a few ideas on how to use him. Did the Saints ever really utilise Bush properly? I think Miami and Detroit both did better jobs with him to be honest.

Goldilocks is 6'2" and 238 lbs. and some around here think he's light. He's got a big butt and great wheels to motor around on. Most of the top MLBs in this year's draft class are smaller than he is. CJ Mosley 6'2" 232 (likely our pick because we need more guys with the middle initial of "J". Shayne Skove 6'3" 242 Alabama Yawin Smallwood 6'2" 235 Connecticut Chris Borland 5'11" 242 Wisconsin Andrew Jackson 6'1" 262 W Kentucky Max Bullough 6'2" 252 Michigan State Preston Brown 6'2" 255 Louisville
Beerball Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 And their 1960 Bills uniforms too. Name was a hell of a good player. If i remember correctly the pronunciation was "Nam aye."
NoSaint Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Did the Saints ever really utilise Bush properly? I think Miami and Detroit both did better jobs with him to be honest. On a week in and week out basis they both used him as a feature back which worked, but as far as play design and a lot of the game plans that did center on bush I can't say the saints were clueless either as he had some great days and did a lot of the things people are calling for spiller to do
34-78-83 Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 So let me get this straight, we lined up Mario, Kyle, Dareus and Branch on run downs, and replaced Branch with Jerry Hughes on passing downs where 99% of the time he lined up on the LOS and rushed the passer at the snap like a bat outta hell. We started and played three LBs almost every play, except when we played two with an extra DB, including Kiko in the middle, usually Lawson and either Moats or Bradham on the other OLB positions, but we're a 3-4 and OMG we're screwed with a 4-3 guy coming in? Yep. I mentioned it early on in this thread too And I can't recall a down where there were less than 2 DT's on the field. Well explained!
Canadian Bills Fan Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 I can't believe people are glossing over this. I am a huge fan of hiring ex hc for coordinator positions. Add in the fact that his record of success as a do is so convincing I don't know why people aren't happier. It could easily be argues that his track record is better than pettines as a dc. The bills had a plan in place and executed it quickly. They also hired a guy with a successful background instead of taking a chance on an inexperienced guy like they have so many times before. I'm very happy this is the guy they got and don't understand how anyone is upset by this move. Couldnt have said it better myself CBF
The Big Cat Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 I see. Do as you say, not as you do? Are you calling my wife pretty?
GG Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 So twice in seven years. I'd say we're safe. The two are Tomlin & Mangini. All others were coordinators for several years before they got the HC gig.
26CornerBlitz Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 @WGR550 Did you miss Aaron Williams on WGR? Listen here http://audio.wgr550.com/a/86560850/aaron-williams-1-27.htm …
mattsox Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Not sure how I feel about this He is a defensive coach that was never able to build a good defense in Detroit Agreed. Scary as hell IMO...
GG Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 @WGR550 Did you miss Aaron Williams on WGR? Listen here http://audio.wgr550....27.htm … I'm surprised that he doesn't have a regular show on WGR.
Nanker Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Name was a hell of a good player. If i remember correctly the pronunciation was "Nam aye." Yes. He was everywhere, played both sides of the ball too!. He's eclipsed by the NHL greatest goal scorer of all time though - H. Shutzie. Nearly every game you watch you will hear... He Shutzie scores!!!
Canadian Bills Fan Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Is there anyone who would have preferred Henderson or O'Neil over Schwartz? CBF
26CornerBlitz Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 @JoeBuscaglia New #Bills DC Jim Schwartz and HC Doug Marrone will meet the media at 3:30.
sodbuster Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 @JoeBuscaglia New #Bills DC Jim Schwartz and HC Doug Marrone will meet the media at 3:30. ...right when my first class of the semester starts. Decisions decisions.

26CornerBlitz Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 ...right when my first class of the semester starts. Decisions decisions. I'm sure the Bills will post a link to the interview and there will also most likely be a Chris Brown one-on-one interview of Schwarz. that they put up too.
