Yeah basically when a whole staff makes a decision on a player , and their combined experience in the field surpasses 140 years, I would tend to think that they made the right decision over the opinion of one guy who doesn't see the difference between the Jets OL and ours. I am not sold at all on Tucker or Smith at RG, so kill the staff there if you want, but ultimately , bringing in a player that won't be a fit long-term and paying him a high salary as a 1 year bandaid isn't a good idea either....

Nice example smart guy. Makes a lot of sense btw. I edited the last sentence of my post that you just quoted. I think that may be the real issue here

Again I'm not so sure he would have helped as much as you think. Some lineman are good in any scheme , and Kendall is not one of those linemen. He is a lightweight with poor upper body strength and would be suited for a "denver-esque" (or Jets for that matter) offense that uses alot of pulling guards, traps, etc. and not the hat on hat, mostly straight ahead style that the Bills implemented. Signing a guy like that could end up hurting a team (and their scheme) more than helping it. Square peg, round hole. The guy WAS evaluated as an option, and dismissed. None of that is spin. If you don't understand the x's and o's behind certain decisions (which you don't in this case), I can see where it would be easy to simply blame the man at the top.

Thankyou

You should be embarassed Bluenews. What a crock of sh--.

Don't worry, regardless of OC Herm will still be there to make boneheaded game time decisions like feeling comfortable kicking a 45+ yard FG when he had plenty of time to move an additional 10-15 yards

It was not TD's "excuse". It was verified by MM and he mentioned that the "coaches" evaluated the situation. Muyst be nice in your nifty world where every thing that happens filters uphill.

Oh I see, I'm making excuses based on facts reported from the Bills organization AND I should know that you are more knowledgeable than McNally, Mularkey, Clements, TD, etc. when it comes to evaluating our scheme. Not one ounce of what I posted was an excuse, it's what actually happened. Go ahead and make a fool of yourself if you wish. ... btw it is already obvious that we need to better the RG position, within our scheme. Atleast you got that right.

No sheep here, just a fan that was trying to help this thread along by reporting the FACTS (as stated at the time by the team) about why they did not sign the man. What about my statement was "sheep" to you? Just because Kendall played well for the Jets doesn't mean he would have in our scheme.... And Yes I agree we need the guard (left) position upgraded...

Pete Kendall was evaluated by our staff (namely McNally, not ony TD) and was determined to be too small and for our system/scheme. He was suggested and, in effect, denied as a prospect. The issue was not $

exactly...

Yep, the clones refer to him now as Willis McShakespeare...

He'll be going when Drew Accepts the paycut request.

Phat Pat is willing to give Buffalo the "discount" when it comes to a new contract. He stated this himself. I don't see him going anywhere... (I hope )

Bobby received no double coverage last year. Was that a cover 2 zone you saw him running underneath?

Are you sure?

If it were truly about what happens on the field you would have acknowledged my post last week re: this differently. Contrary to your belief, teams do not double cover WR's simply because they get thrown to a lot. IMO it was a feeble attempt to blindly defend your point which had been blown to shreds by multiple posters and knowledgeable fans here. But carry on.....

I think he is saying that he is glad they don't.....

Couldn't have said it better myself. And he is every bit as good as you say here, despite what some stat obsessed fans feel.

I think he'll take the pay cut and stay aboard...

The travesty here is you using the Doors and Nirvana in the same conversation.

Oh yeah! That too

I agree with this. And you can say the same for all of the dome teams that have had good records hitorically. That was always one of the coolest things about the K-gun. We played in the worst of conditions and could execute it anywhere in the league (well except for at KC for some reason )
