Well you know what I wouldn't do if I was a GM? I wouldn't hire a guy whose system I don't have the talent for, and then wipe my hands and say it's not my fault we don't have the talent.

3-4 DE, NT, ILB, S. And one could argue OLB. And RT. And RG. And WR.

Is there a chapter on radical feminism and false rape accusations? Sounds very similar.

I really really hate the marriage between our talent and the Rex scheme. I just don't think we have the personnel. Obviously, that may change in the coming months, but man oh man does this team need another DROY candidate in the worst way for us to be good.

Start heating up the oil.

You threw me here. You believe it won't be better or that it will be? Most teams in the NFL are SOL with a QB injury in regards to playoff chances, so that's much ado about nothing to me. It does affect my opinion on a long-term deal, but not the coaching job.

I was just going to point out that if you believe ISIS is a threat to Americans, wouldn't it be logical to consider the guy who calls them "JV" an enemy of Americans? Logical in the vein of gator-logic. Which we all know is a step below dolphin.

It was another part of going "all in." Hard to win a jackpot when your pocket aces turn into a 2 and 7.

Do you believe ISIS to be a real threat?

This is true, and to be fair, if the HC debacle hadn't happened, going from injured Freddy/Boobie/Brown to injured McCoy/Karlos was a huge jump that should've propelled us to the playoffs.

Rodger doesn't have to make sense. That's the point.

Weren't there a couple? http://www.thesportsbank.net/nfl/reviewgin-buffalo-bills-30-for-30-four-falls-of-buffalo/ Try looking in here.

Yes. We expected a shut out and instead we just got a good defensive performance, after losing our defensive MVP, and somehow, that means Schwartz stinks.

He's probably still a better option at RB than Boobie. Bring him back.

Not really, actually. Raiders averaged 3.9 YPC. The 2014 Bills defense allowed 4.1 YPC rushing on the year. Raiders averaged 4.9 YPP. The 2014 Bills defense allowed 4.9 YPP on the year. It wasn't even close to an implosion.

There are 11 backs who were better than him in 2015. I doubt they will all be better than him next year. Again, I don't think it's unreasonable to have high expectations for McCoy. If he places 12th again, due to the "circumstances" next year, does it really matter how talented he is on paper? I want to win football games.

Show me the facts that Schwartz' defense "imploded" vs Oakland.

I don't think that's what I said. What would you like to base success on?

The Raiders game was an above average performance.

So I'm sure you've all seen this around the internet. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-3456962/Woman-shares-father-s-racist-letter-Twitter-threatened-disown-having-black-boyfriend.html 'I’ll never forgive you.

He has the 4th biggest RB contract, so my expectations are equally high. Placing 12th in an injured season is okay, but I'm not jumping for joy about it. It's similar to Eric Wood. If you're going to get paid like a super star, you better perform like one. 5-7 with McCoy, 3-1 without him.

It's not that they underperformed. They didn't even race (or just barely did). When 2 of the top 10 backs in the NFL and 1 in the top 15 barely play, it makes McCoy placing 12th a little less impressive to me. Again, McCoy was 12th, not 8th.

Well, I was referring more to the 3 other top 10 backs who were hurt virtually all season. Combined with the fact that McCoy actually only had the 12th most rushing yards in the NFL, his 2015 campaign was far from a resounding success.

By default.

Do you honestly think RIchie Incognito is the only guy who acts like that in NFL locker rooms? Personally, I do not. Richie's other antics outside of the "bullying" notwithstanding, but I'm sure every, or most teams have a Richie type, who is abrasive, takes jokes too far, etc. etc. That's why I think saying that Incognito was railroaded by the press has some validity. I'm sure there are 50 other guys in the NFL who you can cherry pick some moments and call it systematic bullying.
