  1. Sounds like a lack of player leadership to me.
  2. #tallwhitequarterbacks are the past, present and future!
  3. At least he's not a hyperbolic drama queen.
  4. Using total yardage to attempt to prove some sort of point is the opposite of logical. Again, I just think they're being kind to Rex. It sounds better than "This guy was incapable of adjusting his scheme to the strengths of his players and couldn't make proper adjustments."
  5. It's not too complicated. It was just wrong for these players.
  6. There are more reports that Lynn will be promoted than there are Coughlin will be hired.
  7. "Let us play" was the Dareus quote that stuck out to me. Schwartz let them play and be aggressive. That was their identity and it worked for those players. Schwartz allowed them to play to their strengths. As a result, opposing offenses had to adjust to what they did - not the other way around. I think Dareus was being kind to Rex by saying it was "too much detail". What he was really saying is it was the wrong defense for these players.
  8. Do I seriously have to explain the circumstances around those quarterbacks' respective seasons? The importance of defense? Offensive rankings? PFF ratings? DVOA? How by your logic Drew Brees is a bad quarterback?
  9. It has little to do with the length of time. I can't stomach a team that makes a very costly mistake then four years later repeats the exact same mistake.
  10. No quarterback can win games by himself. Otherwise Rivers and Brees wouldn't miss the playoffs so often and Rodgers would have more than one ring. The numbers and analytics simply don't reflect your opinion. It will be the final straw for me. I can't continue supporting a franchise that refuses to learn from past mistakes.
  11. Too punt-happy for my taste. Except for those times when he doesn't see the linebacker and throws right to him.
  12. Nice talent but he's going to throw a lot of picks for the Browns.
  13. Three categories of quarterbacks in the NFL: 1. Elite/Very Good (Top 9 or 10 QB's) 2. Average - Won't carry team, but won't lose games 3. Terrible - Will single-handedly lose games consistently and prevent a good team from winning more than they lose Tyrod is category #2 The only time you get rid of a category #2 is if he is beaten out by a guy already on the roster. Otherwise, you're begging to replace that #2 with a category #3.
  14. If Taylor is a backup then a majority of starters in the league are backups too.
  15. "The highest paid" - do you mean the highest paid quarterback on the team?
  16. Are you really that dense or are you being sarcastic?
  17. No it's not. It's making the most important position in sports significantly worse.
  18. Plenty of #tallwhitequarterbacks available that will appease the Buffalo fanbase during the preseason.
  19. Does LaCanfora still think Marrone is getting the Jets job?
  20. But that's what makes arguing with strangers on message boards so enjoyable.
  21. The fans who leave will come back when the team is winning and act like they were always on board. You can't make organizational decisions based on what the majority of fans think. Especially not Bills fans.
  22. Did they punt with 4 minutes left in overtime when a tie eliminated them? And for the record, I was relieved when the Dolphins decided to punt. That should tell you something.
  23. Pats defenses before Patricia: 2007 - #2 score percentage / #11 DVOA 2008 - #9 score percentage / #17 DVOA 2009 - #3 score percentage / #14 DVOA 2010 - #12 score percentage / #21 DVOA 2011 - #16 score percentage / #30 DVOA Under Patricia: 2012 - #8 score percentage / #15 DVOA 2013 - #7 score percentage / #20 DVOA 2014 - #13 score percentage / #12 DVOA 2015 - #6 score percentage / #12 DVOA 2016 - #1 score percentage / #16 DVOA I don't have much to add to this except I find it incredible how good the Patriots are at keeping the opposition out of the end zone. Year after year. Only once (2014) in the last ten years have the Pats' defense not overachieved with regard to score prevention. Both before and after Patricia. It's really amazing. And proof that while they won't be as consistently dominant after Brady retires, as long as Belichick is there they'll still contend for the playoffs every year.
  24. Thank you. The Bills fanbase could use some more optimism. All this doom and gloom is pathetic and not even reality.
