Captain Hindsight Posted December 7, 2014 Posted December 7, 2014 Totally agree with this ^^^. Changing coaches every other year has not worked for us. The only thing a new coach brings.....is different. Not necessarily better...and often worse, but different. I really cant throw any big stones at Marrone. Over all we are a better team under his leadership. We need stability at the coaching level. I absolutely believe he will get us into the playoffs next year. No reason whatsoever to fire the man at this point in time. IMHO. Keep up the good work, Doug. Those of us who are patient believe in you. Buffalo wins in blow-out fashion today: Buffalo 37 Denver 6 GO BILLS!! Yeah but Marrone activated his KO specialist today. He should be fired just for that
26CornerBlitz Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Jay Gruden: Jobs on line in final games Nearly a year to the day of Mike Shanahan's infamous press conference announcing Robert Griffin III's first benching, coach Jay Gruden took the podium Monday and acknowledged that jobs are on the line in the final three games of the Washington Redskins' 2014 season. In less than a year with Griffin III and the Redskins' sinkhole of dysfunction, a haggard and hangdog Gruden was painted by reporters in a fashion commonly reserved for exiting Presidents. It's no wonder. One of the jobs Gruden was referring to is his own.
C.Biscuit97 Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 He should be fired. Fat Jon Gruden has been terrible. You didn't get hired to develop Colt freaking McCoy.
Homey D. Clown Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 As PFT just reported, if there is a power struggle between III and Gruden, Jay may lose. Possible Bills OC? If anyone is sitting on a hot seat, it's Hackett. Pure speculation, but he did help Andy Dalton look like an NFL QB for a while there. May help EJ.more than the nobody QBC we have now. Thoughts? I guess he could teach EJ the proper clip board holding techniques...
Fan in Chicago Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 He should be fired. Fat Jon Gruden has been terrible. You didn't get hired to develop Colt freaking McCoy. I have no idea what your post means. Besides the fact that he is Jay and not Jon Gruden, what does developing McCoy have anything to do with this ? By most reports, RG III has not put in the effort this year to play the position. Cousins turned out to be a turnover machine. I have no idea how Jay Gruden is doing in other aspects of coaching but as for QB, what exactly has he done wrong ?

The problem is the dysfunction at the top of the organization with Snyder and Allen as the primary culprits.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 Jon Gruden: My brother’s in the middle of a mess in Washington: http://profootballta...-in-washington/ Washington coach Jay Gruden isn’t saying so publicly, but privately he has, according to multiple reports, decided that he simply can’t work with quarterback Robert Griffin III anymore. Now former coach and current ESPN analyst Jon Gruden is hinting that his brother has told him that as well. Gruden said on Mike & Mike that his brother is in a bad situation.

I think the Slurs wanted Jon but they got his fatter brother. Fat Jon Gruden. Anyways, You don't give up what they gave up to get RG3 to bench him for Colt McCoy. There are a million Colt McCoys. Gruden's #1 goal was to get the most out of RG3. And Synder is a joke. But Gruden knew the situation before hand.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 Gruden: I don't need to see any more of RGIII It's going to be an ugly off-season in Washington.
boyst Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 Gruden: I don't need to see any more of RGIII It's going to be an ugly off-season in Washington. I am likely in denial, but has our ugliness been any worse or better then whats in Washington?
26CornerBlitz Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 I am likely in denial, but has our ugliness been any worse or better then whats in Washington? Better, but that doesn't say much.
Captain Hindsight Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 I am likely in denial, but has our ugliness been any worse or better then whats in Washington? The record suggests it has been better
boyst Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 Better, but that doesn't say much. The record suggests it has been better Over the last decade or maybe longer, though? It really sucks when you're talking football with a group and you go to speak and then promptly reminded as a Bills fan there really isn't much we can say or speak about.
zow2 Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 I am likely in denial, but has our ugliness been any worse or better then whats in Washington? You serious? The Bills overall situation right now is much better than Washington's. We have a good competitive team here with new ownership ready to do some exciting things (build new stadium?).. Washington has nothing. They have some of the least talent in the league team-wide.
mannc Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 Gruden: I don't need to see any more of RGIII It's going to be an ugly off-season in Washington. He is trying to get himself fired, just like Shanahan did. That way, he gets paid for however many years are left on his deal.

Thats why I only talk Bills football here

But Gruden knew the situation before hand. Okie dokie. Now your post makes sense. My opinion is that the main culprit is Shanahan. That idiot continued to let RGIII play when it was clear the dude was hobbling. I wonder what that did to the rook's psyche. Maybe his steep decline this season is in part to being spooked. By and large, RGIII appeared last year to be a balanced player mentally. I don't care about the negative press surrounding him especially the picture that Jay Gruden is painting. If RGIII were to become available in the offseason, I hope we take a long and hard look at him, his skills, physical and mental health.

I won't might kicking the tires on RG3 for the right price. At the same time, I'm not giving up on EJ. I hate to keep saying it but I don't trust our offensive coaches' evaluation on players. Too many guys have regressed. Getting RG3 is pointless if we have the same guys running the show. Jmo.

I hate to keep saying it but I don't trust our offensive coaches' evaluation on players. Too many guys have regressed. Getting RG3 is pointless if we have the same guys running the show. Jmo. First of all, if by chance we acquire RGIII, it will certainly say that EJ is done in Buffalo. But given RGIII's quals, his draft status and his rookie year performance, a healthy (mentally and physically) would be far better than EJ. Your second point is well taken but I really don't see how Hackett survives this off-season. IMO, he is gone for sure and Marrone by association. Or by defiance of Whaley.
