Rob's House Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 I'm disappointed by the anti-Rex sentiment here. He was a bad fit for our personnel but I can't fault him for taking the gig. I wish him nothing but the best.
bobobonators Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Smart move for him. He had already admitted that Buffalo was realistically going to be his final shot to prove himself as a HC. Time to transition for him. Hope it works out.

I wish him nothing but the best. All goodwill for the fatass went out the window after his exclusive interview with Manish Mehta after the season.
Fan in Chicago Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 I'm disappointed by the anti-Rex sentiment here. He was a bad fit for our personnel but I can't fault him for taking the gig. I wish him nothing but the best. Please tell me you are being sarcastic All goodwill for the fatass went out the window after his exclusive interview with Manish Mehta after the season. Yep. That interview just confirmed what several of us believed for a while - that RR is a lazy, egotistic bum who is entirely incompetent to be an NFL head coach
LABILLBACKER Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 He'll be like John Madden ... without the intelligence. Winning response!
HappyDays Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 . I wish him nothing but the best. He didn't return the favor.
WGBillsFan Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Probably a good move for Rex as he never met a microphone he didn't like!
transient Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Yep. That interview just confirmed what several of us believed for a while - that RR is a lazy, egotistic bum who is entirely incompetent to be an NFL head coach Moreover, he outed himself with that interview as a charlatan that attempted to dupe Buffalonians into believing that he "got" the area while he continuously publicly promoted his "I'm an everyman" schtick ad nauseam. Had he actually "gotten" the area he would have realized he didn't need to fuel his self promotion machine with empty playoff promises and hyperbole because, win or lose, Buffalo historically will forgive results for honest effort. IMO, he never gave the impression of having given his all, instead he urinated on the best shot at breaking the playoff drought in years, and his classless exit made it feel personal.
K-9 Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 I thought I heard they were trying to "trim the fat" in Bristol Bristol, Tenneginia or Bristol, Virginessee?
Beef Jerky Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) I hope he gets fatter and has a massive heart attack. I hate people who ruin things you love and he is one of them. I'm disappointed by the anti-Rex sentiment here. He was a bad fit for our personnel but I can't fault him for taking the gig. I wish him nothing but the best.So he stole money and did whatever he wanted and yet you don't know why people hate him? Reports of him not showing up to meetings and not being prepared for game day... He can choke on a hotdog. Edited March 18, 2017 by Beef Jerky

I wish him nothing but the best. There was so much more to the Rex fiasco....Discipline, time management, awful use of challenges etc.....bringing his brother....Rex was a clown and a blowhard who's football schemes were inadequate to today's game....he refused to adapt and got the boot...he never should have been hired in the 1st place and I'm glad the Pegs realized their error quickly..... He will do well in TV where accountability is not necessarily needed and hot takes are welcomed... Edited March 18, 2017 by Iron Maiden
jeffismagic Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 I'm disappointed by the anti-Rex sentiment here. He was a bad fit for our personnel but I can't fault him for taking the gig. I wish him nothing but the best. Rex needed a team with 3-4 personnel and a team that drafts high IQ players. He did great when he inherited Eric Mangini's (Belichick disciple) players. Bills draft for size/speed/power. IQ is not one of the traits Bills focus on.

I wish him nothing but the best. He took a job and refused to work hard in his role, put out a ****ty product, then trashed the place on the way out. !@#$ him.

He did great when he inherited Eric Mangini's (Belichick disciple) players. Bills draft for size/speed/power. IQ is not one of the traits Bills focus on. The irony of Rex needing high IQ players! Seriously though, a great defensive mind but way out of his depth as a head coach. And his classless remarks in the Mehta piece were an unnecessary cheap shot. He literally can't stop himself.
Eric Moulds on my A** Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 I'm disappointed by the anti-Rex sentiment here. He was a bad fit for our personnel but I can't fault him for taking the gig. I wish him nothing but the best.How's the vibe at home Rob?

I wish him nothing but the best. No one looking objectively would blame Ryan for taking that sweetheart deal the Bills offered him. But some have to place the blame on someone when the team sucks. And it is generally easier for them to blame the head coach that is gone than to blame the current ownership and/or front office for not only hiring a coach like Ryan, but for giving him that embarrassing contract to boot.
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted March 18, 2017 Posted March 18, 2017 Can't wait to see his ESPN truck ...Ford is coming out with the "Bloviator" just for him...Raptor on steroids..............
