May Day 10 Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 So the new bill of goods is "year one"... of the bills gm actually picking a coach for realz this time
MAJBobby Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 The dysfunction stays for another year and nothing really changes. This was the same guy who didn't see the talent in Derek Carr or Odell Beckham Jr! Traded two first round picks for a guy who is injured more often than not. Gave OG Chris Williams 5 mill guaranteed to play four games. Traded a fourth for RB Bryce Brown, traded away WR Stevie Johnson and traded for WR Mike Williams. It was Rex Ryan who vouched for the only pro bowl player on the O-line to be brought in and wanted Tyrod Taylor as QB. It goes on and on. Get ready for 18 years of not making the playoffs. Love how you tag the Bad signings as him good for rex Leave out Incognito Hughes Trade EJ trade down Shady Trade Lorax signing Brown Signing Letting Byrd walk Gettinf Orton for a HC who demanded it CK pick Darby pick So what your saying he is like alot of GMs (majority of GMs). Hits some misses some. Nice rant though
Saint Doug Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 True . . . except that it is consistent with everything that has happened. Consistent with what? As of now, we have scant facts but plenty of speculation.
Peter Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 Give me Doug Marrone over Rex Ryan yesterday, today and tomorrow. You can have that quitter every day of the week and twice on Sundays.
PromoTheRobot Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 What does it say about the quality of your QB when other teams PUBLICLY state that their strategy was to force him to be a QB? Says he's still learning the job. Once he had Watkins, Wood and Clay, he did a pretty good job.
Peter Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 Consistent with what? As of now, we have scant facts but plenty of speculation. Follow the money or in this case who kept their job and who is leading the HC search.
YoloinOhio Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 In the other two organizations that have fired their HC, both GMs are staying on and leading the search for replacement. If the GM has some seasoning, and credence with ownership as Whaley now does, that's the norm I think.
GunnerBill Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 You can have that quitter every day of the week and twice on Sundays. Ass of a man but a better Head Coach than Rex Ryan and I am no Marrone fan. We can do better.... but we could also do worse. And we did.
MAJBobby Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 Says he's still learning the job. Once he had Watkins, Wood and Clay, he did a pretty good job. Clay missed on game Woods missed a couple the defenses daid that when All three played WR open all year 6 years in the league Nope nothing wronf with him In the other two organizations that have fired their HC, both GMs are staying on and leading the search for replacement. If the GM has some seasoning, and credence with ownership as Whaley now does, that's the norm I think. No its Obvious disfunction in Buffalo
Peter Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 Ass of a man but a better Head Coach than Rex Ryan and I am no Marrone fan. We can do better.... but we could also do worse. And we did. I could not disagree more and I defended that piece of you know what. He was a charlatan who quit on Syracuse, quit on the Bills, collected millions for doing nothing, and has a great agent who acts as the puppet master to get LaCanfora and others to claim that he is such a hot candidate etc. You can have him. Ugh. Says he's still learning the job. Once he had Watkins, Wood and Clay, he did a pretty good job. it kind of helps when you have a full compliment of players at your disposal . . . and would have if we had them available throughout these past two seasons.

vincec Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 Whaley will truly own it now. I like the move. He should be owning it already, IMO.

MAJBobby Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 He should be owning it already, IMO. Of course cause you want Whaley gone. Nevermind he still hasnt picked his coach in 4 years
Peter Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 Of course cause you want Whaley gone. Nevermind he still hasnt picked his coach in 4 years He ran or pushed two out the door. I also do not buy that he was not all in on Rex.
dezertbill Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 The Bills have employed 2 of the 5 longest tenured head coaches to go the longest without a winning record. Dick Jauron went seven years and Rex went six. Unfortunately their tenure with Buffalo was toward the end of their streaks Not the beginning. SMH
MAJBobby Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 Interesting thoughts from Michael Silver in the NFL.com article. Some very wide assumptions and i dont like Tyrod as you all know but this is all about preserving flexibility and letting the new HC decide instead of making him have a forced marriage.
MRW Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 He ran or pushed two out the door. I also do not buy that he was not all in on Rex. I think the Pegulas know the extent of his involvement with the prior coaching search, and they've elected to publicly make him the face of this next process.
MAJBobby Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 (edited) He ran or pushed two out the door. I also do not buy that he was not all in on Rex. Of course tou dont you hate Whaley. But think about this logically. New Ownwrs Guy they trust helped em buy the team said Rex Whaley one year on contract asked (knowing Russ pushed it) What would you say NO TERRY THATS WRONG Duh. And if you think Whaley pushed Rex you think pegulas would keep him and lead a HC search. Logic Edited December 28, 2016 by MAJBobby
vincec Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 (edited) Of course cause you want Whaley gone. Nevermind he still hasnt picked his coach in 4 years Lol. Right. He can't work with Marrone... Marrone is gone. He throws Ryan under the bus saying that Ryan hasn't produce with the "elite talent" he has provided... Ryan gone. Now he leads the search again with no responsibility for how the the previous two situations ended? You are in a dream world if you don't think he is a major factor in the disfunction. But carry on with your spin. Edited December 28, 2016 by vincec
