  1. No schitt. Rex hires a guy our two best D linemen love and it is viewed negatively. This board never ceases to amaze.

    I wonder how many posters actually knew of John Blake before today. It's kinda like "I've heard of him! Sign him!" but in reverse.

  2. That's funny...I thought the team quit on him (refer to: "he's too strict!! waaaaaa", the Raiders game, infighting between Russ and Doug during the pre-Pegula power struggle, etc.). You think a guy with Marrone's credentials is just going to sit back and wait for everyone to take blame themselves for failures clearly attributable to management or the players themselves. He was kicked out the door basically by the "piss poor" attitudes of the players (Orton was comatose half the season) and the front office (Russ was figuring out what the unit cost of white towels made in Ethiopia vs Bangladesh was for the annual "White Out" game). Marrone had no support and to say he "quit" on his team is similar to a coyote walking away from a stripped deer carcass...there was nothing left on the bone.

    Spin it how you want. Was he fired by the Pegulas? No. Therefore, he did indeed quit.

  3. I always liked Marrone and what he brought to this team. As Schefter said, Marrone is a highly coveted head coaching candidate and I can see a few teams putting him at the top of their list if their current head coach starts off with a few losses. He brings discipline, intelligence and experience as a head coach with great successes in his past. Not sure why you guys beat him up so bad all the time. Schefter is usually spot on in his analysis of front office sentiment and, in this case, the majority of GM's around the league would jump at the chance to bring Marrone into the fold.

    Because he quit on his team....

  4. Wonder if this Hot Take makes me an expert.

    An expert? Probably not, but Cam Newton will be the face of the NFL for the next five years or so.

    An expert? Probably not, but Cam Newton will be the face of the NFL for the next five years or so. He is "elite".

    Pegula did not buy the Bills to make money. That's nonsense. He overpaid by $400m for no reason just to get it over with.

    While I do believe there was a bit of philanthropy involved with the purchase, it's foolish to think he made a 1.4b investment just to simply please the masses.

     

    The Pegulas saved the Bills. For me, they get a very long long pass for any incompetence that may arise.
