Bills fire DL coach Karl Dunbar

[BarleyNY]

Lotta speculation that seems to fit a lot of preconceived notions. It'll be interesting to hear the story of it comes out. I don't think Rex has done a good job overall, but this could have been anything. Weird timing, yes, but that could be for a lot of reasons.

Top QBs for next yr?

 

 

not sure yet

 

Probably Chad Kelly for now

DeShaun Watson will be the top pick IMO.

Bills defensive line coach Karl Dunbar relieved of his duties

The Bills announced today that Bills defensive line coach Karl Dunbar has been relieved of his duties.

Thurman just now on Twitter: "Pepper......"

Don't tease me Thurman.

That would be amazing

Got to be more too it. Could have been something Rex was trying to get Dunbar to buy into and he just wasn't. Finally Rex had enough.

Could be as simple as thinking he was part of the issue and the tweet calling out Mario could have carried issues into next year if Mario was well liked in the DL room

Second-year Bills defensive end Cedric Reed reacted to the news of Dunbar's firing Sunday evening, calling him a "great coach."

In other news, this is the first time I have heard the name Karl Dunbar.

He probably wishes he had remained anonymous.

I hope they don't go with Dunbar's assiatant, Jeff Weeks. In "Collision Low Crossers", Weeks was described as being one of Rex's buddies, almost a comic figure that wasn't well respected due to his suspect work ethic.

Could be, but who knows what a year will bring, after all Cardale was supposed to be the top guy

Bills make it official. Karl Dunbar is out.

 

 

 

What a classless jerk that Ryan is! Dooooomed!

 

The TBD reaction is pretty par for the course though...

Rex is the "king" of Nepotism and Cronyism

i don't get this. at all.

I would have thought whichever coach was calling in plays late and substitutions would be let go.

[Nihilarian]

He would need to fire himself...

Maybe they started the process, but the word hasn't made it to the news yet. Wonder if they know the deadline is in just a few more seconds!?

[John from Riverside]

We have absolutely no idea what is going on behind the scenes

 

For people to make judgements based on the complete lack of information they have on the situation is.....well....I guess typical for TBD.

[Steve Billieve]

Why shouldn't we wildly speculate?

[Marty McFly]

We were told that he was good. He did a bad job. His unit regressed. I'm more than fine with it.

I agree. Get him the !@#$ outta here and bring in someone better the DL failed last year, question is tho, was Dunbar the DL coach durring the Pettine and Shwartz years?

This makes me feel better

 

I remember how categorically wrong you were about Sammy Watkins and Tyrod Taylor, so I now have more confidence in the Ryan brothers

Awesome. Love it when the Tyrod doubters eat crow. Wasnt a fan of the 2nd Ryan on the coaching staff but Ill reserve judgement till week 4 of the season
