  1. It was a nice try, but not going to happen. He will continue to post the same opinion over and over in every thread opened, just in case you missed it.
  2. Well, actually, many of those long passes Fitz completed were very well covered and were in perfect places for the receivers to make plays and they did. I am not trying to say the D overall could not have been better, but that was a lightening in a bottle game for Fitz.
  3. O'Brien is Doug Marrone 2.0. He has badly underperformed on offense with great defense, failing repeatedly with QB decisions. Not that he builds the roster, but he decides who will play and certainly has input. Their personalities are virtually identical. No thanks.
  4. I don't have a source but I remember from the last search that McDaniels turned down an interview request from the Bills. Probably did not sit well. Some may remember that when coach of Denver he was an arrogant douche. Not a surprise coming out of the Pats. Also, by the way, Shanahan did interview with the Bills last time. I suspect if that experience was positive they would be interviewing him again, but apparently not.
  5. I kind of thought they might interview Wade. That would be interesting. Maybe they tried. Shanahan interviewed in the last search. Reports are that it did not go well. I suspect it is mutual disinterest at this point and I am ok with that. Personally, I would not be in favor of McDaniels. I do not think he will be able to stand up on his own, just like last time. Patricia is intriguing, but in general the track record of ex Pats coaches is not good.
  6. gregg Williams? Now that's funny. I know funny, and that's funny.
  7. Exactly. No identity at all. Sometimes they were aggressive, sometimes passive. More often than not, especially down the stretch, the scheme was so conservative you felt like they were just afraid. The steelers game comes to mind, especially in the second half, but there were plenty of examples. You were really afraid Matt Moore was going to beat you so you played max coverage and rushed 3? Really? Rediculous. I would be extremely pissed if I were a member of that defense.
  8. That seems obvious in retrospect. What a disaster.
  9. Not definitive at all. Pure speculation.
  10. The Skins press release states that four assistants have been fired, including Barry, the D.C., and Perry Fewell. It was a LaConfora tweet that suggest the entire staff would be fired. Wrong again. They may eventually be when they select a new D.C. But not so far.
  11. Maybe because he is following up his comments based on unsourced garbage with more unsourced comments that take a 180. Might this make someone question his credibility? He is not a reporter anymore, just another twitter whore.
  12. I agree - no coincidence. He would not have trashed the Bills QB on national media unless that was some sort of directed messaging. Sounds like they are preparing to move on.
  13. Many Skins fans here in the DC area have soured on Cousins. He can definitely sling the ball and throws for lots of yards. He also has a tendency to make big mistakes at critical times and he is criticized here for not being able to win in the clutch. (Sound familiar). I am not a fan of his either, both for cost and his limitations. Watson does not look like an NFL QB to me, although admittedly I am no expert. He looks to me like a good college system QB who does not demonstrate the accuracy or decision making for the next level. Perhaps he can learn, but he is a project with a high bust potential. People seem to be high on Trubisky, and if the Bills were, and they decided to go all in on moving up far enough to get him, I would be OK with that, especially if they move on from Tyrod.
  14. I certainly did not see any reason to give up on him. I think the best hope for him all along would be that he is ready to assume a primary back up role by training camp next year. Should be possible if they get him some decent coaching in the offseason. I am also of the opinion that the Bills should stick with Tyrod one more year while continuing (starting ?) to evaluate other alternatives, including the draft. It is really beginning to look to me though that they are preparing to cut Tyrod loose. Given Jim Kelly's role with the team, I would not be surprised if his comments on Tyrod were a directed trial balloon.
  15. Anyone who believes the owner of a billion dollar business would not be involved in selection of one the most important positions in the organization is seriously delusional.
  16. I do not put much stock in anything Carucci has to say anymore. He has reverted to innuendo, retweets and rumors as his sources. In other words, standard TBN. Pretty clear he and the others there have their panties in a wad over denied access and are crusading. Clear to me anyway.
  17. Good breakdown and clear evidence as to why he should not be kicked to the curb unless a clearly better alternative is available. None is apparent at this time for sure. Despite fans desire for more from this position, and we all share that desire, it would be foolish to cut him for any of the free agent garbage available, including Cutler if he in fact is. They are not likely to strike immediate gold in the draft either. Keep Taylor, keep developing Cardale, sign a competent back up, and keep looking.
  18. I am really not sure why people find this hard to understand, but they sure seem to.
  19. I would not want this guy within 100 miles of my team. Loser.
  20. Unfortunately, I think we can conclude that there is really no good plan to replace Tyrod, based in past history. Personally, I hope all the speculation that the decision to cut Tyrod loose is incorrect as I believe he is the best team option in the near term for this team.
  21. You realize don't you that no one missed you?
  22. I would have thought that would be pretty obvious when they gave him an extension mid season, but hey, I am not a big time ESPN reporter like Rodak.
  23. Tyrod was not even close to the biggest problem with this team as you have pointed out. Did the offense struggle at times? Yes. Did Tyrod struggle at times? Of course. This is true with all teams and all quarterbacks. However, the failure of this season overall is all about the defense. Failing to hold leads, failing to keep games close. Failing in the clutch time and again, especially in the second half of the season, and especially the last three games. Taylor will never be a pure passer and will never be any taller. He is good enough in enough aspects for this team to win. He is, at least to me, the best option in the near term while the search for a better long term option continues. Clearly they want to keep their options open and getting him hurt in a meaningless game, taking away their options, would not be smart. Clearly the new coach will have a say in this, but wishing and hoping a better option will suddenly appear from the free agent dreck available or the draft would be poor strategy.
  24. He has no real point as usual.
