In case the playoff drought continues through 2015, I imagine there will be a sacrificial goat to be had. At this point in the year, I've heard and seen people calling for Rex, Taylor, Roman and even Thurman to be axed. So if the failure continues, who will bare the load and in doing so, lose their position. Or will staff and roster remain in tact?

 

 

I say Sanjay Lal will be the fall guy. Given the lack of production at the WR position, and the need to shake something up on offense, he is my goat.

 

(All entries hypothetical since we know we are SB 50 bound!)

Danny Crossman. Holdover from the last staff, fumbles and penalties have plagued the return and coverage units.

There shouldn't be a "fall guy". This was an expected 8-8, 9-7 (barring serious injuries) team heading into the 2015 season.

Don't you want to see another whole year of two yard punt returns?

As a fan, are you content with the coaching staff as is?

The injuries this team has gone through you can't possibly judge this coaching staff other than to say we have 6 weeks to go and they have kept them in the middle of it.

Scape goat ? This is a good staff your not going to walk out of the injury situation unmarked.

Wait..."should the failure continue"?

 

They're 5-5 and currently hold the 6th playoff spot.

 

They play a bunch of mediocre-to-lousy teams down the stretch, and need to go 4-2 to make the postseason.

 

Sounds like failure to me!

I thought it was going to be Whaley, although drafting Darby and Williams in the most recent draft may save him.

 

The problem is that there are no easy fixes this offseason. We will have a number of free agents (Glenn, Incognito and Bradham) and unlike past offseasons, we will not have much cap flexibility. Combine this with more than a few needs, and I think we will have a hard time addressing all of our holes.

we play teams in second place in their divisions currently with 2 who easily could be in first by the time we play them- Who are the good teams / Who are the bad teams ?

 

Mario is gone plenty of cap room

In all fairness, I read the "failure" to be the playoff drought, not the current state of the team.

The timing of this thread given the scenario in front of the team is a head scratcher for me. dunno.gif

Well, this is the time of year when the Bills have come up small 15 years in a row. Their motto could be "Expect Failure". So, feeling like they are going to seize the day doesn't necessarily come easy.

So in other words......BBFS.

I don't know if anyone will be a "fall guy." They don't need to cut or fire anyone. I don't get the Sanjay Lal part. They should continue to improve and start building some stability, not shake things up, again.

Agreed AND think Crossman should be fired too!

Was it expected when Rex was signed that they'd be average? When McCoy, Clay, and Hughes were acquired/re-signed did fans think that they'd be average? Did 60k ST's get sold thinking the team was average? Most likely not.

No playoffs = failure.

 

And they don't have the 6th spot. KC holds the tiebreaker.

 

Per ESPN, Kansas City "Wins tie break over Buffalo and Houston based on best win percentage in conference games."

Ok, they control their own fate for the 6th spot.

 

Beat KC and they're squarely in the driver's seat, needing only win 3 of their last 5 with a home game against Houston and match ups against Phi, Wash, and Dallas (all losing teams) on the docket.

 

And I still am totally confused as to why the current administration, in place since 2013, shoulders the blame for everything that's happened since 2000
