Hapless Bills Fan Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Mine is I'm appalled by the number of injuries we have had. I hope the Bills put together a off-season team to really drill deep into it and determine a cause. Our training staff? Our conditioning program? Our turf? What?
BillnutinHouston Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 I agree. Very disappointing and disturbing. On the surface, injuries appear to be largely random but it just happens too much to this team, seemingly year in and year out. Maybe something a consultant could look at.
BuffaloHokie13 Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Young talent on offense with Tyrod, Sammy, Karlos, and Gillislee. Our future at the offensive skill positions seems very bright. We need to replace our turf.
WotAGuy Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Offense a pleasant surprise. Really enjoy watching Tyrod - hope he continues to develop. Hope Karlos can stay healthy. Hope we can find a decent #2 WR. Sign Cordy and Richie and find a couple more OLs and we are going to be tough to stop on O.
Rico Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 For the first time since the late 1990's, the Bills end a season where I feel good about the starting QB. Keep hope alive.
The Jokeman Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 This team is close, closer than it's been before. Yet we still have some things we need to improve on. Including TE depth, the O-line and WR depth. I have to think the defense is going to improve next year whether because Whaley will bring in the players that better fit Rex's scheme or maybe the players we keep buy into it. As I think today's performance by the D as good as we've seen all year considering who was playing. If we are going to go more 3-4 then we need a NT and anyone who thinks Kyle Williams can fill that role is sadly mistaken.
billsfan714 Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 It was the opposite of what most expected, offense took a step foward and defense took 2 steps backwards.

We need to replace our turf. Is that what it is? Personally I don't understand how turf doesn't shorten guys playing careers. Wouldn't grass be healthier on the body?
ganesh Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Another disappointing season with the expectations set so high at the beginning of the season, especially after that early dismantling of the Colts
BADOLBILZ Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Mine is I'm appalled by the number of injuries we have had. I hope the Bills put together a off-season team to really drill deep into it and determine a cause. Our training staff? Our conditioning program? Our turf? What? Mine was that it was nice to have a playmaking QB who also didn't kill you with mistakes. I'd like to say it hasn't been 20 years since we had one of those........but the closest exception to 1995 Jim Kellly was the 1998 Doug Flutie......who finished off the season by turning the ball over 5 times in the wildcard game in Miami. It really has been a LONG time. That actually trumps Rex destroying this season by ineffectively forcing his system on the personnel at the expense of a playoff trip.
1st Ammendment NoMas Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 My take is that we were in the best position this team has been in years and Rex blew it. With the talent on this team we should have been 11-5 and headed to the post season. It's going to take some roster magic to help this team get over the hump. Next year we have a tougher schedule. I am pleased with Tyrod's development. He truly surprised me with his ability. If he and Sammy can develop better chemistry, we may have the explosive offense we were hoping for. Clay disappointed. The defense disappointed with Darby being the lone surprise. I think Graham regressed. Gilmore needs to stay healthy and McLovin made some bad mistakes. The linebackers were bad. Brown and Bradham showed so much promise in 2014 but were poorly positioned in Rex's scheme and it cost us. The entire D-Line was woeful with the exception of a few good Hughes and Dareus plays. Mario was a no-show and we had no depth. Take #2 is that we need a better medical and conditioning staff. Ever since Rusty Jones said goodbye, the Bills have had way too many injuries. We need to get some good people in here and get healthy for 2016. If Rex learns from his mistakes and Whaley makes a few good moves, we may get 10-11 wins and the playoffs. If Rex continues the bad coaching and sticks with Thurman as DC we are looking at 6-7 wins.
PlayoffsPlease Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) 0-5 record against teams with 10+ wins 1-5 record against playoff teams. Bills are very far from winning a playoff game let alone a championship. After 6 years of Whaley's input at a senior level its pretty clear he can't build an average playofff team. Edited January 4, 2016 by PlayoffsPlease
IronyAbounds Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Disappointment. Rex sux. My thoughts exactly, although you're a bit easy on the Asshat head coach.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Glad we played so hard AFTER we were eliminated, if we lost out we could be picking 12th instead of 19th, good job guys way to pull it together at the end .
KOKBILLS Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 Massively let down by Rex's Defense...And to be honest by Rex himself...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted January 4, 2016 Author Posted January 4, 2016 The bully was never built. Um. Well. In my experience, a bully is a guy who swaggers around and beats up on anyone who is smaller, weaker, or shows fear, but who backs down and disappears if you kick him hard and first or lead him to think you're bigger and tougher. Some might say the Bills kind of fit that description this season.
