SoulMan Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 And the 8 ball answer is......"It is decidedly so." !!
Dirtbag Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 i think rex wanted to be a football coach with a sense of humor. and i think he genuinely cared about his players. he may have even valued them as people more than as players. i think he liked to have fun and he didn't take himself too seriously. and none of those things are necessarily conducive to a long career if you are not winning superbowls. eh, i thought he was just lazy and dumb.
CodeMonkey Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 (edited) But but, he was going to take the Bills to the playoffs, I packed my bags and everything! The Pegulas obviously thought that too or they would have not guaranteed him all 5 years of money! How could he turn out to be a douche if the Bills owners and fans liked him so much?

swnybillsfan Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 eh, i thought he was just lazy and dumb. i don't really think he was either of those. i just don't think he was an eat, sleep, breathe football kinda guy. i think he was a bit of a coaching diva, and i think he was really set in his ways. but i think he is also a guy i would love to close a bar with.

ndirish1978 Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Not even close. December 17th, 1989: Houston at Cinci. The Bengals are a long shot for the playoffs, Houston a win away from winning the division. Side note: Bengals coach Sam Wyche and Oilers coach Jerry Glanville hate each other. How much? Bengals are up 45-0 in the fourth quarter. Sam Wyche calls for an onside kick, recovers. Bengals end up scoring on a midfield pass on 4th down. Next Bengals series, Wyche calls a fake reverse/halfback option pass and scores. And finally, at the end of the game and Bengals with the ball, Wyche calls a time out to kick a last-second field goal. Bengals win, 61-7, just because Wyche wanted to run up the score on Glanville. Hard to get much douchebaggier than that. That's not a douche move, that's legendary

transient Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 In order to play this game please define your interpretation of douche bag.... "Biggest" - literal or figurative?
Mr. WEO Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Ha! I was going to say Glanville. Wyche is a good choice though. Remember his "you're not from Clevelend" stunt? Exactly--he did it because Glanville was a big douche.
LI_Bills Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Carol giggling on the sidelines as the NE coach stands out to me as HOF douche material. He's gotten a little better, but not much. And how about the choke gesture when he was coaching the Jets and Miami missed an extra point?
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 In all seriousness, could much of Rex's issues be attributed to his dyslexia? He's admitted that he suffers from it, maybe it effected him in ways he didn't realize, would cause him to spout off at the mouth much more than a normal person in that position would.

Hard to get much douchebaggier than that. Oh man..is this true?? If so, can we fire McDermott and hire Wyche tomorrow? Seriously, that's one of the best football anecdotes I've ever heard.
BillsFan130 Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 (edited) I would say so ya. At least Pete carroll and belichick can back it up. Rex's claim to fame was going to the afc championship game 7 years ago. He still brags about that.. Edited February 3, 2017 by billsfan11
bmur66 Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Nah. He is just a .500 coach that doesn't like getting F&%@ed and can't keep his big mouth shut when he is still getting paid 16.5 million dollars by the team that fired him for poor performance. That's all.
Manther Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 that catch phrase is No Manther....its not piss off.... ITS B word! Or as Chappelle sang....I am going to pee on you, like you want me to.
Niagara Bill Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 That's not a douche move, that's legendary Glanville was the Rex R before Rex was. I would love to see the same thing done to Rex....
baskingridgebillsfan Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 I understand Rex was far from perfect. Getting personal on the field was a huge issue . However firing a coach with a 15-16 record after two years is rare. I can understand his point of view. I am not saying Rex should have stayed. I am just saying his dismissal isn't the norm

I am just saying his dismissal isn't the norm Hiring a below .500 career coach who has been in your own division for 6 years without winning it and who your team put the beatdown on twice the previous season isn't the norm either.
