Agreed. People should be careful what they wish for.Get rid of Orton,Manuel,Whaley, Hackett, Brandon etc...on and on. Things can get worse. I want my team to make smart decisions, not rash decisions. Brandon is great at his job.
He is similar to his father Buddy. The defense is placed so far above the offense that the team is left terribly unbalanced. This style will allow you to go only so far. Just like Marty Schottenheimer playing not to lose.
The media has played a huge role. He is the exact opposite of Marrone. AKA a good interview! Don't be surprised if he doesn't get a lot of jobs offers.
The Bills salary cap model calls for building a strong defense/special teams first. This means that this is the type of QB who works in that model. I think this is a reasonable guy to kick the tires on.
Doug Marrone genius? I don't know. He has done a good job building the team and will be retained. Taking a perennial 6-10 team to 9-7 after 2 yrs earns you that. I believe the team needs to and will be patient. Some small tweaks are likely needed to be playoff team. This ship is headed in the right direction due to Coach Marrone's leadership.
I am so sick and tired of some of the posters and media around this team. The negativism is just out of control. Ive been away for a few days and watched the Bills win today with others. They don't follow the team like most of us do and I was telling them about the stuff on this board with Marrone et al. They were bursting a gut laughing at the idiocracy of wanting a 9-7 coach fired. Patience and tweaking is what is needed not a !@#$ing blow it up and start over.
