No matter what I say you're going to disagree. It's not even worth the time. Keep fighting the good fight though. You have a lot of anger clearly.

How do you fire a coach after one year when your whole Oline gets hurt? They jumped the gun on that one.

Man just let me get out my contact list and get that for you. Get over yourself. If you want to ignore the history of the league or national hiring practices, be my guest. You think Jerry Jones isn't racist? Really?

There is no insinuation, there is an underrepresentation of black people in coaching and management. The players are 68% black, so you can see where there seems to be a problem.

Right, because you cant question one wrong before another? What kind of B.S. is this? You act like people don't routinely call out college teams for passing over more qualified minority coaches.

Did any of their Oline starters even finish the season starting?

Bills coach gets a pass for making the playoffs but a SB winning coach gets fired after one year of not making the playoffs?? On top of that you cite a contract dispute but don't blame the GM. What? Marvin Lewis had a job because those owners suck. They don't even have an indoor facility.

In the last 10 years there is a mile long list of White coaches fired after 1 season? Which is besides the point because he is asking for more representation.

Not all coaches, but if you don't think some aren't then your crazy. Read the transcripts for when they talk about black players.

IDK about Will, but Joseph is a casualty of Elway's terrible picks. Elway is wreaking that team with his "standards". Part of the reason for that is because for a long time Black men didn't get hired for head coach positions. Hell there were people who thought they couldn't play QB.

The Bengals problems go way past Lewis. They still don't even have an indoor practice field. It's like UCLA and their 50yd practice field.

Edmunds lacks the instinct and physicality for MLB. He is big and fast, but doesn't shed blocks well and gets fooled by the run a lot. I think he would be better utilized on the outside with his speed. It's like taking a college RB and telling them to play QB at the pro level. Bills need some 1st round talent on both lines. If tackles weren't a need I would say this would work, but unfortunately the whole line needs to be retooled.

What solid LT is available in FA? We go that route and you end up with Newhouse and Bodine. Bills need to get young and talented on that line, not one year stop gaps. Now is the time to sell out and improve instead of putting it off for another rebuild.

Daboll hasn't ever coached a good offense. Even for as stacked as it was, Alabama struggled for a big part of his time. Frazier didn't do well in his time in Minnesota and it looks worse with their current success.

Vontaze is more talented probably. I doubt he misses that torpedo attempt lol. Players routinely call out dirty players, so I'm not sure what you mean by NFLPA. He is entitled to the same representation, but not a weak response like Philips gave. I really question the team make up when they respond like that. Good teams don't get the mild response like the Bills do.

This defense is a mirage. They are horrible in the red zone and the terrible job in the field position battle has limited the yards they give up. There were a few games, but they had more bad to mediocre games than good. While that's great about 4th downs, how often do they make conservative 3rd down calls. I feel like they constantly run plays short of the sticks on third. I just don't think we will agree on this lol.

I can't forgive trying long field goals with a hurt kicker. Outside of that, I'd be interested in if it's him or Daboll making these changes.

Until his kicker was hurt that is. The end of the first half in Detroit was bad. That should be a quick out or throw it away. It was still in range for a healthy Hauschka and instead ended up being a bomb short of the end zone. He almost always punts. Last game to end a bad season and he finally starts gambling. I think your forgetting the rest of his conservative 2 years here. It's like watching Jauron 2.0 sometimes.

He doesn't know how to utilize time outs or the challenge? It's not play calls as much as clock management and personnel issues. There is still a very real discipline problem that has cost them but should have cleared up with all those process guys.

It's basically wondering if they got #9 on purpose or through incompetence. I'm leaning towards the latter. His FA pickups and trades have been awful so far. I think the OL pickings are slim for FA. The list I saw wasn't great. Probably end up adding the previous worst at their positions again. OL needs to be a draft priority.

I actually don't think the Bills were worse than the Cards. Similar struggles at RB, Cards Oline was much worse somehow, and Larry Fitz was hobbled a lot. Neither situation is great for a rookie QB. With Zay and Foster finally showing up and the relatively weak schedule after the halfway point, I think the Bills had an easier time. The schedule actually worries me a bit and I'm hoping team improvement wasn't just a mirage because the Patriots were the only decent team they played after week 9.

I'd like to see a ranking of the offensive lines for these teams. Browns looked ok, Baltimore was solid, Bills were awful, Cards were god awful, and I think maybe the Jets were just ok. Seems to be about how the stats broke down for the QBs. Mayfield looks much better than the rest as far as consistency, but after that it gets harder to separate them with overall team play.

You might be building your team wrong if your QB gets sacked 40-50 times. These rookies came into some ***** situations. The completion percentage for Jackson is actually the most shocking to me. His ball placement was god awful in college. He basically feasted on terrible defenses and garbage time against good teams.

I think that's what everyone is looking for. Unlike college, can he make performances like today a regular havit or not.

no tackle? Easier said than done. Teams don't let their stud Olinemen walk. Most of the successful teams have built their line through the draft, and that means they are going to have to spend 1s and 2s not 5s on linemen. I'm not sold on Teller or Dawkins and they still need depth.
