This is BS. Spiller is a star running back and our coaches don't have a clue how to use him. That counter tray running play they kept running every single running play suites Freddy's game not Spillers. Freddy is a find the hole running back and Spiller needs open field. That was the most ridiculous play to keep calling constantly. C'mon that's all we have in the playbook for Spiller?

Pettine must want to knock Marrone out. Man he coached a terrible game, start to finish. Pettine gave us a shot yet Marrone was no better than Gailey. Hope this young team is able to man up going forward...

Who are we going to cut from the WR group?

My biggest takeaway so far is the coaching. Handled EJ well, ST's speaks for itself and D is aggressive. Nice start with the tools in all phases.

AW!!!!!! Boy can thump!

But what do we really know about Whaley?

Marrone has had some success everywhere he's been. Given all the inexperienced and lesser known assistants that he's brought along, I like the experience of the DC hire. Hopefully the Hackett's of the bunch will bring youthful enthusiasm, creativity and take full advantage of their opportunity. After all, even Bellicheat was a wide-eyed newby once upon a time.
We have far more talent in the players than we did 3 years ago and a good draft and a few FA pickups in addition to all the new coaching energy could help us to push for a playoff spot IF WE GET A QB...
A Few Thoughts About The Game, in no particular order.....

A game like this is so important to a young team's psyche. I believe a few different calls by Marrone would have been the difference, particularly with time management. Up tempo is great to wear down a defense ( including ours unfortunately) but not for a team with no established chemistry, yet. The offense truly never had any consistency minus a small handful of drives, far too many 3 and outs. Marrone has to get a handle on the mistakes, they killed us, clearly. I am still pissed and depressed we lost this game. After 14 years you just hope and expect more. Finally, with what he had to work with, Pettine did a really great job IMO. I say that even knowing we didnt stop them when it counted most. But Marrone should have never had to put his DC in that position. In my mind, Marrone did not manage this game appropriately in many instances. But like the rest of you, I'll be pulling for Buffalo again next week! Go Bills!
