    I put the Bills failures mostly on the QB. As I said originally, I think that going no huddle puts the spotlight on your QB. In the Bills case, that was not good.

    I knew that eventually this thread would turn into complaining about other Bills fans who criticize the team. They all do.

    I don't think the no huddle requires any more pass protection than a huddling offense. In fact, the idea is that you go so fast and put so much pressure on the defense that they have to limit their calls and go more "vanilla". This would actually help the pass protection and allow the QBs to make simpler reads, therefore getting the ball out quicker.

    I agree. The only downside is that if they give him a tryout they will be getting every weekend jock who thinks that they might have a shot stalking them for the next two years.

    It's mostly on the QB. If he's good then the no huddle can be a powerful weapon. If not then it only amplifies his ineptitude, IMO. So, we'll see how good Bortles is I guess.

    Wow. Sounds terrible. Good thing that link didn't have pictures.

    This is revisionist history. Wade fell on his sword to protect an utterly inept assistant. Ralph wanted to retain him.

    This concern was discussed by the media and fans at the time. However, the prevailing opinion seemed to be that, as a defensive genius, Rex would adjust to his personnel and they wouldn't miss a beat. Unfortunately, it didn't turn out that way.

    Whenever OJ got the ball on a handoff the entire crowd would stand up to get a better view, like they didn't want to miss the next epic run. I've never seen anything like that since.

    I can see and support not "cutting him out". He is their father and a human being. Yes, he made mistakes but you don't give up on a person because of them. On the other hand, I don't think they should be defending his actions or attacking his accusers. That's not helping anybody.

    So many great memories. My personal favorite is the loss to San Diego in the 1981 playoffs when Fouts hit some stupid receiver with a 50 yard pass for the winning TD late in the 4th quarter... On the exact same route that had been picked off on the previous drive. Fun times.

    That's because he's a 3-4 guy and his schemes are designed to maximize the effectiveness of his LBs, not his DL.

    There's balance you have to maintain. At the NFL level, no team is so much better than their opponents that they can just line up in a vanilla scheme and win. On the other hand, it's usually a lot easier to confuse bad teams with scheme than good ones. At some point you have to beat the guy in front of you if you are going to win the big games. Bills need to find the right mix.

    I think a WR like Benjamin would have had a major impact in the Super Bowl. Also, their defense was #6 last season and looked pretty good in the playoffs against the best offenses in the NFC, so it's not as bad as you seem to think.

    They get Kelvin Benjamin back this season which should be very useful. So it's not all losing.

    Dalton is so overrated, IMO. I honestly think he is marginally better than Fitz. He has just played on a great team his entire career so his stats look better.
  17. vincec
    In fact, I think people nationally probably rate him higher than is warranted by what he's shown on the field so far.
  18. vincec
    Exactly. But the funny part is that he's not going to court to claim his innocence. He's claiming that the league exceeded it's authority in suspending him. His case for claiming that he is innocent is laughable (I still joke with my friends about "The Deflator"). He clearly did it.

    Well played.
  20. vincec
    Thank you.

    Definitely not well handled by the team at all. Can somebody give me a good news story about the Bils medical staff? I could sure use one right now.
  22. vincec
    Unfortunately, that may be true. The one thing he has going for him is that he's young and the Bills have no other good long term prospects at RT, so he may get another season to see if he can recover.
  23. vincec
    I agree. Give the guy a chance.
  24. vincec
    Problem is, Fitz is not a backup and he knows it. He's better than at least 1/3 of the starters in the league.
  25. vincec
    That was a painful one. The Bills had totally taken control of that game and should have won it. They were on the upswing and beating the Steelers would have been huge. Then Stevie drops the ball and goes all apoplectic on everyone... The joys.
