Fadingpain Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Whaley will attack draft as he did last year; three lines of players; guys who they will go up to get if available, guys they will not move away from if they are available, and a line of guys they will move back to and still be happy.

Fadingpain Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Marrone: we have good players on D. Went through 2 coordinators, 2 schemes, and still got better production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackInDaDay Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 My prediction of Russ Brandon's opening comments (assuming he is there and talking): "Going forward we will hold a series of robust discussions empowering us to proactively effect productive change and reach out to the fans of the Buffalo Bills, streamline our operations, and develop a synergistic relationship creating a system of winning sustainability. We're all very excited about the future." classic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Joe B. from WGR: Can EJ lead this team to the playoffs and if so, why? Marrone: accuracy is better, decision making is better based on performance in practice against our own D. Marrone: But you have to be able to do that in a real game against opposition. Whaley: This was a beneficial step in EJ's career; he can decompress and see how another guy does it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Kyle came up to Marrone this morning and informed him of retirement; Marrone asked if Orton was sure about this. Marrone told him he should take some time and think about it. Orton said "I am ready to retire" and you gotta respect his decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtbag Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 marrone offers up a blast from the past, "it's hard to win in this league." (regarding players being happy about beating new england.) somewhere, dick jauron rolls over in his grave, cracks a smile and gives a thumbs-up.

Fadingpain Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 (edited) Whaley: Hughes is a productive player; we will do everything we can to keep him. Same for CJ; he can bring something to offense and be nice weapon. Was EJ pick a failure? Whaley: No, his career is not over.

Fadingpain Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Was your concern about protecting QB limiting your offensive scheme? Marrone: Don't want to run team with 3 separate entities; team knew what had to be done in 3 phases. Kyle's numbers, receiver numbers...we need to do better job situationally from red zone and 3rd down standpoint. Need to get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 was there a decision to be more conservative on offense? Marrone: sometimes you speed up, sometimes you want to slow down. Look at first drive yesterday; we were calling same plays but were efficient and went down field and could score. 2nd half didn't make many adjustments; doing same things; didn't get same results. A team needs to be "EFFICIENT" Whaley will go to Mike Lyons (?) and ask if he can crunch some numbers regarding analytics; will get ramped up more this off season concerning FA and draft board. Analytics is new to Whaley. We are scratching the surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
