TDRupp Posted October 16, 2014 Posted October 16, 2014 this is our time No, no, no. That is not fair. They only meant March through August.
CardinalScotts Posted October 16, 2014 Posted October 16, 2014 Ah, so it was 'worrying and not having fun' that made him stiff and immobile? Pro bowl! you sir haven't played sports your entire life, not just haven't played football but any sport at any time
Bill from NYC Posted October 16, 2014 Posted October 16, 2014 Pears needs to be cut. Not demoted, not moved back to tackle, he needs to be cut. I would have done it after the second game when he didn't help his QB up after getting him flattened. Every time he cashes a game check, he's committing felony grand theft. The man is a menace and must be stopped. Pears is NOT a guard. He is a brute strength RT (and not the worst). He simply doesn't have the agility to play LT nor the burst to play OG. It ain't happening. Kujo was the 4th best blocker on the Tide. The line was stacked with stars. He is not exceptionally strong. He's fairly agile, but there seems to be an injury problem. Either way, he was a stupid selection considering that we have Glenn at LT. And I strongly sense that he lacks the strength to be a good guard, let alone RT. So who do we blame for this mess? Marrone for not starting Urbik? Whaley for wasting a pick on a damaged Kujo? No and No. Imo Brandon should be loaded into a cannon and fired into Lake Erie. He is a sophisticated, modern day circus barker. It was HE who brought in his Syracuse cronies and a literal nobody to be GM. If Brandon is fired (fingers crossed) and a team picks him up, they will make a profit and lose football games. Brandon is a cancer and a disaster.

DC Tom Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 Trade KWAN-joe for .... With that size and that name, his nickname better be "Castle."
bobobonators Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 With that size and that name, his nickname better be "Castle." LMAO. That's a BIG BOY. Tiny brain.
CSBill Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 @JaySkurski #Bills coach Doug Marrone says the team has started working out Cyrus Kouandjio at guard. Kouandjio getting work at guard so the questions is: why did it take this long?
Dragonborn10 Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 I agree but we did draft Kouandijo in the 2nd round last year. That's fairly high and fairly serious for a Guard. The Williams signing was an absolute waste. He was always bad prior to getting here, and despite his injury, how much did we expect from the guy? the bills have been unable to develop late round draft picks on the OL like some other teams do: Asper, Richardson (still early), Sanders, Hairston, Wang etc. We kinda hit a homer with glenn but that's about it (though he wasn't a late round pick). the rest have been a failure. Falls on GM(s). Kouandjio was drafted to compete and hopefully take Pears spot at RT. He was a disaster at RT in training camp and preseason. He is only getting a shot at RG because Pears is the worst RG in football.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 I must admit, I have never seen him play. I dont know how throwing in another rookie will make things better. How low is Hairston on Marrone's totem pole? If you have never seen koundjo play, you are in for a treat. Just picture eric pears at guard, only weaker, slower, and more confused.
Coach Tuesday Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 I cannot believe the state of the Bills' guard play. How could they possibly have allowed this to happen?

Solomon Grundy Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 so the questions is: why did it take this long? I don't know, I've been clamoring for this move since training camp!
NoSaint Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 If you have never seen koundjo play, you are in for a treat. Just picture eric pears at guard, only weaker, slower, and more confused. Unpossible
Deranged Rhino Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 If you have never seen koundjo play, you are in for a treat. Just picture eric pears at guard, only weaker, slower, and more confused. If I picture that, I will never know joy again.
DC Tom Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 Not for nothing, but I once saw Pears push a nun for no reason. Lucky for her, he whiffed. In Pears' defense, it was EJ's fault the nun got by him. Pears can't hold his block all day...
Deranged Rhino Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 In Pears' defense, it was EJ's fault the nun got by him. Pears can't hold his block all day... :lol:
DC Tom Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 :lol: It's what we do...blame everything on the QB. The line can't block...we need to draft a new QB in the first. The receivers can't get open...bench the QB. The defense can't stop the run...what QBs are available next year in free agency? The coach freaks out and fires his offensive coordinator three days before Week 1...it's because he didn't have a good QB.
atlbillsfan1975 Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) I am glad Marrone is willing to admit he was wrong. Unfortunately Marrone's stubbornness will cause us to see another losing season. Marrone is not a NFL head coach right now...if we give him 3 more years of doing things wrong he may be ready.

klos63 Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 I don't know, I've been clamoring for this move since training camp! probably because he was drafted as a tackle, and not having him practice at tackle pretty much gets rid of any reasonable chance that he could succeed there in the near future.
