Mr. Pantiesinabunch Graham has a story this morning that Bills coaches would like to move on from Bud Carpenter and his "old school" training staff because their methodologies are "behind the times". I say the proof is in the pudding and get on with it. However the story suggests the front office is not behind the potential move. Who wins out?

'Marrone and Whaley also are said to be highly interested in changing the Bills' this-is-the-way-we've-always-done-it culture.' Well if this is really Brandons team and he said its a 'New Era' Then he needs to listen to Marrone and Whaley and start with the Training staff. I am sure there is much more that needs to be changed as well. What is the definition of insanity?

 

Well who in the front office dont want this change?

I would say Brandon aka he still answers to Ralph although he says he doesn't, Jeffery Littman the money man for Ralph Wilson etal.

I am also willing to bet Whaley wants to handle Contracts now. That would put our long time capologist out of work. That would REALLY upset the apple cart

Ralph insists the team use those Jack Lalane workout videos. He paid good money to have a Betamax installed in the workout room, dagnabbit.

Of course the Betamax aren't worth much since they took the tvs out.

Nice!

 

I thought they we much less injury prone this year if that means anything.

 

 

Was Carrington the biggest name to IR?

I do feel there has been a high number of injuries on our team in recent years as well as a decline in performance in the 4th quarter. In training, it's important to switch it up and try new things. Let's get some new guys in there to shake things up

Im all for it. Teams need to be on the cutting edge when it comes to technology/methods of helping the players prepare for the season as well as preventing and treating injuries.....

I've often wondered why NFL clubs are so behind the times with training and physical therapy/exercise. There are many, many new and better programs to exercise an athlete beyond just straight muscle training and running. Even if it is some hybrid Pilates, Yoga, Crossfit, plyometric, meditating mumbo jumbo I do not think it could be that hard to work on this. Beyond that, the diet and intake need to be adjusted with these players.

It's disturbing to me that a source was willing to speak on the record about this coach-FO rift to TG. If there's a staff purge this week, we'll either know who the leak was or who won the power struggle.

Screw that!

 

Just squat, deadlift, bench, overhead press, and do weighted pull-ups!

 

Heck that's all I do and I'm strong as a bull...

 

...oh wait, I can't play football for shizz...never mind

There was a WSJ article on this earlier this week--in particular what Brent Celek of the Eagles does in the offseason under Chip Kelly's new regime. Interesting stuff....
