Sure, but I suspect he will get the Denver job.

To yell and curse at them when they're off? That would help me in my job too.

Chip Kelly😜

Lynn said that they can't work on the issues Tyrod has during the season, because they're trying to win. So they cater the offense to what the players do well and don't do the other things much. However, he seemed optimistic about the possibility of Tyrod developing into a more complete and consistent passer in the offseason.

Phil Simms implied this during the Steelers game, basically saying that the Bills passing offense was too simplistic and not practiced enough to perform at a high level. It does make sense. You can only practice so much during the week and they have a very complex running game to work on. OTOH, the goal is winning and SF did come within a few plays of winning the Super Bowl running it so the jury is still out IMO.

So you think that the team should make the QB decision without any input from the new head coach? And that is a sign of competence. Nice. Good luck finding a non-clown to take the position if that's the case.

So what was different here from his other 13 years in the league? He became stupid when he got off the plane at the Buffalo airport? Players maybe?

Then they are a joke. Which would explain a lot of things, but I'm holding out hope that they have a modicum of competence. If they are competent*, what they are doing now is making preparations IN CASE they decide to move on. The game is meaningless so why not.

Unless the Bills organization is a complete joke (which is possible) the decision on Tyrod CAN'T have been made yet. The new head coach MUST have input on his quarterback situation, since it is the most important single position in determining if he succeeds or fails. No coach worth hiring would take the job without this input and the team would be crazy not to give it to him.

I don't know about their respective leaderships, but I agree with the first part of your statement completely.

Coughlin didn't seem to get along too well with management. Just look at how his tenure ended and at his final press conference.

The players seem to be calling for a hard ass control freak. But how do you think a hard ass control freak will work with Whaley and Brandon? It didn't go so well with Marrone. They need someone who will be a hard ass with the players but a kiss ass to the GM, President, and of course, Owners. Good luck.

I doubt that a guy who has been a successful defensive coordinator in the NFL for 15+ years only had one scheme or was incapable of adjusting to offenses. Rex is just the latest scapegoat for what is a much wider problem.

I heard him say the exact opposite in an interview with John Murphy a couple of years ago. He said that he'd be interested but understands that his chance may have passed him by. However, that was before Denver's defense won them a Super Bowl.

IF Fisher is even interested in returning to a DC role at this stage of his career, I wonder what the dynamic would be like between Lynn, who has never been a HC at any level (and an OC for only part of one season) and Fisher who has been a HC for an eternity.

I find it interesting that Marrone, who was an offensive guru, had a good defense and a crappy offense and Ryan, who was a defensive guru, had a good offense and crappy defense. Both with similar players. What do you make of this? Strange.

I'd be on board with Wade- as long as me kept Lynn or brought back Roman as OC.

The OL play is a tribute to the Roman/Lynn system, IMO. I would try to keep everyone and I wouldn't be surprised if these players regress under a new system and/or with a new team.

So, is Shady wrong? The players have been unaccountable. Like Dareus. They don't pay attention to the details and then blame the coach for their slackness. It's on them. Or will the Bills apologists now attack Shady? This the least accountable franchise I can remember. They are a team of scapegoats. Rex scapegoats Roman. Whaley scapegoats Rex. Now the defensive players scapegoat Rex. How about a few more people saying that they screwed up and need to be way better?

I just posted this in another thread. I agree 100%.

https://www.sportingnews.com/amp/nfl/news/marcell-dareus-buffalo-bills-bart-scott-cbs-radio/1djmsawuasgu91g1p22m81nqjx Lol. My take as well.

Sammy wants Doug Marrone back? The last control freak disciplinarian didn't jive too well with the GM and club president.

Sign him quick before he gets away! lol.

Except that he hasn't found a coach or a QB- the two most important things. Otherwise he's doing fine.

The Bills are going to be right behind them on Sunday. May be close by default.
