Doug is reaping the fruits of being part of the Bill Parcells tree. I hope he goes on to be as good as a Sean Peyton or a John Fox, who always seemed to have their teams prepared for the full 60 minutes, something that Jauron, Gailey have not been able to do.

And I think that might be one of the problems. All these pre-game shows mostly have recently retired NFL players and coaches. These are not real journalists or TV folks. They tend to talk too rubbish, yet the networks continue to hire them...Emmit Smith, Tiki Barber, Sapp, Irvin, Keyshawn Johnson, Carter all suck and yet they continue to get these contracts...Now there will be Ray Lewis in your living rooms next season.

Sapp is a marginal HOF player I don't think he gets in this year. I don't think Brown gets ahead of Reed. Remember, Reed beat out both Carter and Brown last year in the voting and made to the Top 10.

We can't keep drafting DBs in the 1st and 2nd rounds and letting them walk. If we let McKelvin and Byrd walk, that would be 5 DBs that we have allowed to walk after drafting them at the top (Winfield, Clements, Whitner, McKelvin and Byrd). We have to lock up our best young talent, otherwise, you have to now fill another hole. Aaron williams is not a NFL DB.

That is eliminated now and the damn Patriots will host another AFC Conference Championship game.....

Is Whitner playing Free Safety ? He is 20 yards from the LOS The difference in the game is that GB has ZERO Running game.

GB defense looks so small!

What a throw by Rodgers...We haven't seen these kinds of throws at Orchard Park in a long time.

That is very surprising. The Pouncey brothers have been really good.

That is Chan Gailey for you. As I posted on another thread, Gailey lost his job, because he failed to make his adjustments , in spite of it all being very obvious. He failed to make any half-time game day adjustments, failed to go to another QB when his starter was failing miserably. Even the out-in-the flat throw cost us a TD against Miami at their one-yard line, because the play was so predictable.

Sentiment Analytics !!!

This week was not about Player Personnel. It was more about building the coaching side of the team. We still have a lot of work on that side having to hire the position coaches. Only after that, the coaching staff can truly evaluate the current personnel of the team and identify what needs to be done in FA and then the draft.

Last year Tannehill as picked at #8 by the Dolphins. I sure Ryan was not slated anywhere in the top 20 of most of the draft boards. However, if you think he is your guy and is unlikely to be there in the next round or don't have a viable trading partner, then you make the pick. If the Bills have wasted picks on Whitner @ #8, how bad it can be to get a QB there.

I don't think the 2.8M counts against the guaranteed money. Doesn't he have two 3M roster bonus and may be that is what counts against the guaranteed money.,

Other Young HC or Coordinators include, Jeff Fisher, Greg Williams, Kyle Shanhan, Josh McDaniesl, O'Brien, Perry Fewell

When your offense cannot stay on the field and give good field positions to the opponents, you cannot expect your defense to bail you out all the time (The same story applies to the Bills too).

Actually that is not true. In the NFL, if you find a successful play, teams will repeatedly use it until the opponent(s) can stop it. That is what good teams do. Look at NE. Their bread and butter throws are the quick slants to Welker and Gronowski. They will run those plays until someone can stop that. Football is football at any level. You line them up and play man-on-man and if your man can consistently beat his assignment, teams will continue to make the same play. Even Gailey ran the screen so many times because it was successful with Spiller as the Catcher.

Why? He went 9-7 in his 1st year as a HC. His 2nd year Bills and 1st year Jags are teams short-on-talent. You can only do so much with those teams especially when there is such a big question mark at the QB position.

Hopes: There were glowing quotes from Jerry Jones and Bill Cowher Gailey had got a lot out of Thigpen in KC. People were confident that Gailey would be able to do the same with Trent Edwards or Fitzpatrick Gailey would be the right person to turn Marshawn Lynch around. Question Marks: There were a lot of questions as to why Gailey was fired before the 1st game of the season by Todd Haley in KC There were question marks as to how he won nothing with the Yellow Jackets as HC There were HUGE question marks about his coaching staff as not many of them had any NFL Experience. There was a big Question mark about Edwards being able to run a 3-4 after being a linebackers coach

Can they stop the Run ?

Why so much vitriol for our former HC. Murlarkey never has given a reason in public as to why he left Buffalo. He even said so in the calls prior to the game against the Bills. When Levy took over this team, he already had Jauron in his radar and he probably forced Mularkey to make changes to his staff that he was not comfortable with (May be he wanted Jauron to be his DC and Mularkey refused). No one reallly knows what happened during that time in OBD. It would be just easy to let it go and move on with life.

There has been absolutely no indication from this coaching staff that this is going to be a "rebuilding year". What makes you think that hiring Lovie would not do a "rebuild". Every NFL HC is going to look at his stable of players and decide what needs to be done. This staff is yet to make a single Personnel move and you are already claiming that it will be a "rebuilding year".

This :thumbdown: Spiller is one of the most dynamic players in the league. Why would you want to trade him if we ourselves can have better coaches to make use of his talent.
