Yeah, son, I realize there are open seats in front of us, but EJ's starting for the Bills so we're safer back here.

Uhh, sure. I know when I'm drunk I totally forget what my house looks like... and that it has doors...

Now there's a coach I could see the Bills in bed with...

Can you effin believe those mf'ers are gonna stick me with EJ?! EEEEJAAAY!! Sure hope Elway has my number. So, what're your plans when they cut you? You like skiing in the Rockies?

Do you ever take that effin helmet off?

Sure hope that "business decision" was draft pick related. Ugh.

Instead of crucifying Dareus based on a out of context snippet, Scott, as someone in the media, should have read the whole piece with Dareus before offering a hot-take. Dareus indicated (I'm paraphrasing) there's a lot of communication that takes place, that they were playing faster in year 2, but that it fell apart when AW got injured. He basically said you can't expect street free agents to make the calls and have it look the same. I'm sure Scott wouldn't have loved the system as much without Ed Reed in Baltimore or Jim Leanord in NY, who was with Rex in Baltimore the year before, making the defensive adjustments.

...and you'll end up bringing me in as a completely unqualified GM?

Bless your heart. Did our recent presidential election teach you nothing? Facts are so 2012...

Too bland. No clicks. More like "Bozos at OBD, too stupid to know how to clean a toilet, look to Les Miles for expertise in flushing talent."

The terms of the contract you offer would be of no consequence. The cost for such actions is always the same; pledge you soul for eternity to his dark master and sign the deal in blood and you too can have a minion to coach your team.

I'm ok with him as the next coach in the setting of an actual search. If they bring in a couple other qualified candidates and deem that he's their man, fine. I'd also be okay with them letting him test the market to see how legitimate the interest in him as a head coach truly is, and if the hype is overblown, trying to hold on to him as a coordinator candidate for a defensive or ST minded head coach, as those areas clearly need some help.

That would certainly explain how he's able to turn around a defense in a season or less, which he has seemingly done with every team he's coached.

Urban slang definition: The Twitter version of welp signifies the speakers reluctance or lack of enthusiasm for something that is finished or unchangeable; it is, roughly speaking, a linguistic shrug, which you might imagine as a combination of well and a gulp. To your earlier question, when Dunne's writing becomes petty, personally insulting, and seemingly vindictive instead of merely being critical then you'll know he's "gone hack," until then you're just being obtuse.

Sweet, another participation trophy!! I rule!!

I didn't catch all of thabdint, mushmouth. http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/fatalbert/images/b/bc/Mushmouth.jpg/revision/20120223020147

Look at it from the player's perspective. Your agent negotiates a significant raise for the current season, but at a considerably reduced rate for most starting QBs, and gives the team an option on the remaining contract as a bridge or "prove it" contract. That's essentially a "one year plus" deal. If he's not also protecting you against serious injury that would prevent you from making a roster the following season while giving your current team another chance to evaluate you, then your agent's stupid and you fire him.

Questioning the conspiracy only serves to prove you're part of it. EVERYONE, YOLO'S A WITCH!!

Would create quite the conundrum; how do the Bills limit their access to themselves? Also, while it's probably no problem for Sullivan, how do Schoop and BD the reporters develop enough self loathing to generate the requisite negativity for Schoop and BD the coaches.

I actually lol'd believing this was PH's meaning.

If they're intent on giving Lynn a one game tryout, which I suspect they are, this would be one of the stupidest things they could do; force a rookie on him who's not even been running his own team's plays in practice for the year, as though he won't have enough on his plate.

Showing his age, then. It's like my dad thinking new cars cost $6K or that you can find a nice house for around $75K.

Not reworking their roster to fit an inflexible scheme would help, too. It's harder to be critical of Whaley when the plan was to fix the offense and tweak a dominating defense, and yet they were blowing draft picks left and right to bring in players to fit Ryan's scheme. If I'm a GM, I'm not real thrilled with the prospect of doing that yet again when the defense is clearly poorly coached.

I think it's more likely with all of Rob's bombast that he said if you're firing my brother you're firing me too than they did it to be petty. Do you really think one was going to stay on without the other?
