Well here we are 15 years after the Bills last play off appearance & after all that time one person from those play off Bills is still relevant . All the rest have moved on or retired & he's still relevant . Wade Phillips has the best D in the league & is part of a 7&0 Broncos team . If there is any way to get a little revenge for being fired from the Bills i think this could be it. Ralph undoubtedly is looking down watching his beloved Bills & still doesn't have a clue that Wade is one of the best coaches in the game ! Maybe not a HC but still one of the best . I wonder if Wade coaches with a chip on his shoulder to show Ralph, Jerry, & others what they gave up on ? I for one at the time couldn't figure out why a coach with a winning record that got our team to the play offs was fired, same as i did when Fox was let go by the now 7 & 0 Broncos . Just goes to show you what i know while we all know why a coach BAILS with a winning record ! Because he was a money grubbing WIMP ! But i digress ! As i am only a fan & only know football from the fans perspective i know why i am not in the business because i would suck at it as most fans would !! But i still wonder about those calls back then. Was it Ralph or Wade that made the QB call ? Was Ralph P.O'd at Wade after the game because he lost in Nashville or was it because Wade stood up & voiced his displeasure at the QB call ? Or was he fired because he (Wade) made the QB call & Ralph wasn't for the change ? One may never know unless we ask Wade's wife --- YAH that's it !! But one thing you can't deny --- The Guy Knows Defense ! Where ever he goes the D is better for him being there ! And today he has the Best D in the league & is still relevant in the NFL !! Blitz on Wade !!

And this comes as a surprise ?? As Bob Segar said on the Live Bullet album when he stated that Rolling Stone mag said detroit audiences were the best Rock & roll audiences in the world ! His reply - "**** i've known that for 10 years" Party on B/lo !!

Yah if he does as good as he did in his last couple of stops as a HC he'll be a non factor !! I just hope he doesn't do to Mariotta what he did to Losman !! I think he ruined what could have been a decent NFL QB with the proper coaching !! In 7 games ??

He did enough in the off season this year to carry him, the only thing is getting all of the players healthy & them all being on the field long enough to get a feel for the scheme . But being Bills fans we all want miracles right off the bat !! Instant gratification !!

I hate to see any player get hurt & i hope it's note to serious because that can be a terrible injury but i'm glad it's happening now because the Bills need all the help they can get !!

Where's EJ ???

I would rather they just have the red helmets back instead !! Call me a traditionalist ... Leave it to the NFL !!

Man i hope this is a joke !! All red uni's would look like S*#T !!

Personal opinion I have been a fan since about 1968 & you sir are way off & dead wrong !! Whaley is one of the best things to happen to the Bills in a long time ! He's brought more talent to this team than it has seen since the 90's & before the past 2 years he was hamstrung by Russ Brandon & Buddy Nix . He has been a leader in bringing the excitement back to the Buffalo Bills & your post shows how much of a rookie you still are when it comes to Bills football !! If the injury bug hadn't hit as hard as it has this year you would be the guy holding the banner at every game & the one partying so much because of the way the team would be playing at full strength you would be the guy every one would be passing on the way to their cars in the parking lot of the Ralph puking your guts out for over indulging in Bills fandom . So before you go saying one of the best thing GM's to come along in a long time needs to go at least let the team get back to full health & full strength before you cut the guy lose. Oh & while your at it let the guys learn the schemes & throw away your Doug Marrone posters !! Go Bills !!

If the Bills don't draft a QB they will be in the same place years from now . Tyrod "could be" a good QB but this should be EJ's last season as a Bill !! Be like other good teams & get other options. We have let some really good prospects pass (no pun intended) right through our draft . IMHO there are other QB's in the back up positions around the league that could be really good starters in the NFL !! I wish that the Bills would try to get the guy in Cinci that is the back up there. He won a couple of national championships while at Bama & the Bengals have been raving about his progress. But what do i know ???

Could it be the Bills curse ??

I disagree i think he is a good coach he like most other coaches have to look at the big picture & leave their ego's outside !! If he would have really looked at what the D did last year & had a open mind he would have saw just how good they were & brought either Schwartz on or kept a lot of his scheme in place . But like all new coaches on new teams they have this ego & have to think that they can do better & completely change every thing instead of playing to the strength of the players & use what has been proven to work !!! Then you here the excuses like we have heard . Oh we just haven't gotten the scheme down yet or we have to learn what each other is doing & learn how to play off of each other --- B S !!!

If Rex doesn't play to his players strengths & get figured out where he is going wrong within his scheme i think Mario will want to walk . Dennis Thurmon is not a DC at least not a good one ! He need sot put more faith in his players ability instead of his scheme & leave his ego at the door. Plus admit when it's just not working . This unit for the last 2 years have been one of the most feared defensive units in football & this year they look all of middle of the road . The players are the same, the thing that has changed is the coaches . So what does that tell us ??

I agree if your going to use it , use it all the time on every thing ! And especially on a call like the call that went against Robey ! When a bad call determine the outcome of a game that is not good for the game or the team !! Another thing that has been talked about is making the Refs full time NFL employees, which IMHO with what the players get paid , plus the fact that everyone of the players are full time basically why shouldn't the Refs focus be on the game all year round ! it just doesn't make sense to have part time help when it comes to these guys & the calls they are screwing up & because of those calls the out come of the games changing they should be full time & if not just like when the players make a bad hit & get fined, then when a ref makes a bad call he should be fined too !!

There are a few players that have shown exactly what they are & i for one don't think it will get any better for them. Because given the chance something always goes wrong for them .. The first is EJ . I will be the first to say he is a great person, has a really good work ethic but also think all the things that were wrong with his game coming out of college are still there & after last weeks game can't see them getting any better so get rid of him ! The other is Goodwin . Another GREAT PERSON !! But we need his skill on the field & he is like another Bill from the past Roscoe Parrish . I really like both of them but neither can stay healthy so they need to get rid of Goodwin like they did Roscoe . I am truly hoping that this year & last as far as Sammy is concerned are a fluke, if he continues the way he has been going they made need to do the same with him . He is a GREAT WR but he seems to always be hurt, but as Whaley said in his interview from jolly ole England he was never hurt in college. So as i said i hope this is just a run of bad luck for him !! OR could this be the Buffalo curse in action ? HMMMMM Oh & DT the D Coordinator might be a consideration for this too !! Just saying ...

I was wondering the same thing . When most of the RB's were injured & deemed out i thought use Felton & just use him like they use to use Sam Gash & keep battering the other team . Because after all that is what Rex & G Ro said they wanted to be a "Power Run Team" Well there was the perfect chance & the dude was basically no where to be found on the field

I'm not sure how i feel about this ? With all the mistakes being made & the D coordinator saying the players just aren't getting the scheme yet i think a little practice couldn't hurt . But when you do get frustrated sometimes the best thing is to just walk away for a bit to clear your head & then come back to what ever it is you were doing & things seem to work a bit better . So maybe that is Rex theory ???

I think the Jets will be the only team to this point to give the Pats a tussle because their D is playing tough & Chan has a O doing Okay !! If Rex would ever let the D line play or take the D coordinator job away from DT we may have had a chance to beat the Pats but DT doesn't let the D play to it's strengths ! So Mario & company will be a lot more frustrated before the season is over I'm betting !!

Harvin i'd say yes let him go , Goodwin is on IR & as much as he is a good guy he is hurt way to much so let him go too . Woods i totally disagree with though ! He is a really good WR it's just the QB's that we have can't see the field worth a flip ! When you do go his way he usually catches the ball . I think he will want to be traded when his rookie contract is up & i feel what ever team gets him (as long as they have a good QB) will find just how valuable he is . I think he is a legit #2 !! Bobbie is fun to listen to but besides ST he really brings nothing to the team that is extra ordinary !! So By By Boobie !!

Yep it's gonna happen for sure & it will be as great a move as putting MNF on ESPN !! What was once the most anticipated game of the week is now a mere after thought . SNF with Al & Chris is now the best game of the week . Good ole Roger & owners like J.J. will continue until this sport is as screwed up as baseball !!

Every one including myself were taken back a bit in believing that T Pegula & Whaley got a coach like Rex Ryan . We all thought that were on the way to the top & to this point we have seen the vaulted Bills D that has led the league the past 2 years in sacks & QB pressures do little to dominate like they did in the recent past . Why is it so hard for new coaches to their new teams to put their collective ego's aside, look at (what is on tape) & do what WAS working, like they say IF IT AINT BROKE DON'T FIX IT !! Is it really that hard to see ? The Bills DB's are playing pretty much lights out (for the most part) but the front 4 is where the change in scheme is stifling them by making them drop instead of getting at the QB !! Just go back & include some of the type of things that Schwartz was doing, include them with a little twist to your D & then you can (if needed) stroke your ego & say it's my idea . But if it ain't working with what the new coaching staff is doing CHANGE IT !! Before it's to late !! I truly believe that if our D was playing & getting the pressure that they were last year the Bills could be at least 4-2 if not 5-1 !! Go Bills !

According to Brandon Marshal !!

Dennis Thurmon has a disconnect with the scheme & the players & they are not playing to the players strength's !! Which all's they need to do is WATCH LAST YEARS TAPE & they will see what they need to do !! Wake up Rex ! Look at the obvious !!

If nothing else he should have been a HUGE consideration as the Bills HC especially given what he did with the D ! And when Rex was hired TP & DW should have told Rex we want Schwartz as our D coordinator given again what he did with them prior to his hire. The reason being that since Pettine left & Thurmon was put in his place as DC Ryans D hasn't been nearly as potent ! And if you look at what DT did last year with that group & their change with the new coaching staff then to see our Bills D go from what they were to what they are Thurmon needs to go as a D coordinator !!

Here's a game i will have to watch on NFL network high lights cause it's not worthy to be on TV ! Thanks for this & putting MNF on cable, i appreciate it NFL !!
