26CornerBlitz Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) Rodgers has rare poor outing as Bills stun Packers Rapid Reaction: Buffalo Bills Mike Rodak | ESPN.com A few thoughts on the Buffalo Bills' 21-13 win over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday at Ralph Wilson Stadium: What it means: The Bills (8-6) took down the NFL's hottest team in the Packers (10-4), who fell to 0-6 all-time in Buffalo. While Buffalo's offense -- especially quarterback Kyle Orton, who finished with a 54.2 quarterback rating -- was inconsistent Sunday, the Bills' defense and special teams won the day. The Bills have won eight games for the first time since 2004. With the strength of the AFC, they'll still need to win their final two games to have a chance at the playoffs. Rapid Reaction: Green Bay Packers Rob Demovsky | ESPN.com A few thoughts on the Green Bay Packers' 21-13 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday at Ralph Wilson Stadium: What it means: Maybe this is why home-field advantage is so important to the Packers. Their struggles on the road against a mediocre team don't bode well if they have to leave Lambeau Field in the playoffs. In fact, at 10-4, they’re not even in the playoffs yet and if the Detroit Lions beat the Minnesota Vikings later on Sunday, the Packers would lose their lead in the NFC North with just two games remaining. Week 15: Green Bay Packers vs. Buffalo Bills highlights (3:35) The Buffalo Bills used their dominant defense and some timely passes by quarterback Kyle Orton to upset the Green Bay Packers 21-13 in Week 15.

Augie Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Can't decide it I'm offended by "mediocre". Offense drags us into thast territory I'm afraid, but I love this D! And we won on ST so how does Whaley just pluck a guy like that who can change a game so quickly? He's no "punt catcher", though there was at least one that would have saved a lot of territory if he had caught it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Beard Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Did the Bills defense knock anybody out of this game and possibly next game? That is a string that the Bills have going this year. Not sure if that is something to brag about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Lightning Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I just want to say that while I disagree with 26 CB often, I really do appreciate his work on these post game threads. Just want to say thanks! and I am using my 3,000th post to do so! As far as being offended by the media reflection on this game - nope. When we consistently win and make the playoffs, that will change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 Week 15: Packers vs. Bills highlights Bills players praise Doug Marrone after win over Packers Observed and heard in the locker room after the Buffalo Bills' 21-13 win over the Green Bay Packers: Marrone not thinking about future: With the Bills improving to eight wins for the first time since 2004, the case is growing stronger for Doug Marrone to remain as the head coach next season. Marrone, as one might expect, wasn't willing to talk about his job security. "I never even think like that," he said. "I just try to win each game. It's my job. It's an opportunity and I really don't do it for me. ... The coaches, the fans, the region: When we win, I'm happy for them and when we lose I feel like I let them down. That's just the bottom line."

Kelly the Dog Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Week 15: Packers vs. Bills highlights Bills players praise Doug Marrone after win over Packers That's one thing that Marrone does well. The team plays for him. It's inarguable at this point. That's a huge part of a HC job. A HC has to do about 4-5 things well to be successful. 1. He has to win. With this overall talent, IMO, 8-6 at this point is decent. it's not good, it's not bad. I think it probably should be 9-5 with this roster, even considering the QB. If they end up 10-6, that will be a good record. 9-7 about what it should be. 2. He has to pick good coordinators and assemble a good staff. He gets an A or A+ for Pettine and Schwartz, he gets a C or D in my opinion for Hackett. That's a wash. This is regardless of talent. Some coaches cannot get good talent to perform. Some coaches get inferior talent to overachieve. 3. He has to get the players ready to play, be a good motivator. I think he is pretty good if not very good at this. 4. HC has to make good in game adjustments, decisions, challenges, punt versus go for it, efficient use of time and timeouts, etc. I think he is very average at best in this. 5. He has to succeed at what he does well or is in charge of. For Marrone it's the Offense and the OL. He has been under average at this. Very bad, IMO. And I'm talking regardless of talent. This offense just needs to be mediocre and they are not even mediocre. So for me, he gets a C+ in wins, a B in coordinators, an A as a motivator, a C as an in game manager and a D as doing what he does well. That's not good enough. If we beat the Raiders and Pats, he gets another year for sure. The wins would become a B and the in game decisions and maybe the offense goes up in grades.
