They still had a shot at the playoffs/ You're starting to sound like people speak in Raleigh! All you were truly missing was the "all", as in " ya all" (well more like Roberson county) (from the guy who now lives in Wilmington)

Glenn wants to get paid again, so he would care! Better option may be to trade one of them. Could you get a #1 for him? Likely easily could for Glenn, not so sure based on the limited time teams have seen Kujo, but maybe a 2nd? How much would you eat by treading Glenn, is it worth it?

Why because he's the only GM who hasn't found a franchise QB? Saw a stat the other day for Miami as to how many QB's have started for them since Marino left, believe it was double digits. I recall a few years back the Giants had a ton between Simms and Eli

Or that the Bills haven't committed strongly either way. He knows his biggest fan was Rex who's gone, the fact that he's being sat this week tells him the Bills aren't committed to him for certain. Add to that every media troll around has pretty much stated that he sucks, isn't worth the money, nor is he the answer and should be cut. So why should he even the slightest bit go out of his way and talk to them. About the only person in the media I've seen who hasn't totally given up on him is Graham, though not certain if that position by him has been consistent or has he gone back and forth on it in different articles and days?

So if he's a that good, unless his contract is up this year, why would Denver let him go to another team in a lateral move?

So effectively the Bills took out a life insurance policy on him.

I do agree not likely, but someone needs to say enough about many things getting out of hand. Even if the PFWA boycotted the Bills, with as many outlets these days trying to make a name for themselves, there'd still be plenty of news about them. And I do think the media needs the league more than the other way around in these days of the internet. Well it just takes one to start a trend. You watch now that Trump is president things like this will change!

With regards to #2, Media Did Sully really call the Pegulas bozo's in the article or was that just someone here's comments? If so, if I were the Pegulas, I'd consider taking a page out of the Richard Sherman playbook and revoke their credentials for the entire BN. In today's internet world, the BN needs the Bills more than the Bills need the news With regards to #10 Brandon As to qualifications, his background is in marketing, specifically sports marketing I thought?? having said that in the 10 plus years he's been in Buffalo, he certainly knows more about running a football team than anyone around here does on this board and media, and more importantly, likely knows much more than the Pegulas do at this point, so if they want to have him be their representative for daily interactions, then so be it. You call it "meddling and giving unqualified advice" well if the Pegulas, have given him that authority, then he is speaking for them, as they feel he is qualified or more qualified than themselves. If instead he gave his "meddling and giving unqualified advice" directly to the Pegulas and then they came out and did as he suggested tothem, everyone would be more OK as it's coming from the owner, well if he's representing the owner, then it is coming from them.

While I don't dis-agree with this happening. I really don't think TT has much trade value as everyone knows, if the Bills are even talking to others, then they are ready to move on, so can wait them out until he's cut. However is still some value in a trade as that team now has TT locked up. Or could be the Bills plan to keep TT for one more season as don't think Cardale is quite ready but announce to other teams we would trade him for a #1. If some team is willing to pay that much they move on, else they bring him back at least for one more season. Even if EJ were to pull a Rb Johnson season farewell out, he's a FA, considering everything he's gone through in past 4 seasons, can't imagine him coming back. There's really not many better experienced options out there, so will be surprised if TT isn't brought back along with Cardale and maybe draft someone else for future development if Jones doesn't work out. Pettine thing could happening as I'd assume they have history together from the Jets. He was away for a year, so gave him time to recoup and want to get back into game before he becomes a forgotten man.

Or maybe in the year he was here, while the defense played great, he was an organizational mess?? Maybe why they didn't hire as HC last time. They still sensed some of the same issues as were in Detroit, great coordinator, bad HC??

Could be, but the timing does indicate more to it than that.

All these threads about bringing in this guy as coordinator for this HC are really pretty much all pointless. Unless you know of some connection between Lynn and Shanahan or Bradley, not likely to happen. Coaches will bring in guys they are familiar with or coach their own philosophy. It was like all those threads last year complaining that Rex didn't keep Schwartz, they have different beliefs so it wasn't going to happen.

I was listening this morning on the radio and they were talking how Rex would be a great collage coach as players and parents would love him which I'd tend to agree with. He'd be great with recruiting, etc. But if NFL players had trouble understanding his defense with as many hours they put in, how would college players ever figure it out. He'd really likely have to dumb it down. Admittedly if they could figure it out, no offense could probably stop them either.

Marrone didn't turn down he walked away. Considering the situation, someone maybe his wife had convinced he was this hot name and would easily get a new job, so he took $4 mil, walked away, figured he'd get a better job, paying even more once the bidding started. Problem was he didn't realize how much quitting on a team tarnished his name. He'd have been much better off if the Pegulas had come in and said we're cleaning house and bringing in our own people, so you're fired. Then being out of his control, likely he'd have been hired right away. Mularkey too recall there was something going on, think it was Levy being hired as GM, he was afraid he's be let go in a year as not one of Levy's guys. Little did he realize at the time Levy wasn't going to fire anyone unless everyone agreed he needed to be fired as he called himself the consensus builder. And that was 10 years prior to Pegula's being here so not in any way related to them.

Exactly every year people make a big deal out of this and by this time next year everything will be different. Coaches are also smart and with big egos, and have heard all the rubbish coming out of Rex so not likely any of them are surprised he was fired and they all figure they'd never have these same issues themselves. Likely everything you list as reasons are identical with every other team too, but you're not following them so don't hear about it.

I think they said, sit TT He said no So both got fired

He still owned a house down there, at least a few years back anyway. I hadn't heard, is Doug being interviewed?

Well at least it doesn't screw up fantasy teams as most leagues are over.

Geez.... You've been getting very mellow lately. What's wrong with you? Been drinking alot over the holidays?

The way the league is heading really prefer an offensive minded guy. I'd even take a person with ST background before a defensive guy. So IMO, cross out all names from the defensive side.

You're right teams aren't stupid, so they also realize that by trading for him they have him locked up. Once he become a FA a team could offer the most money, but he may still decide to go elsewhere as feels it's a better fit or the team is better. they no longer control things. Admittedly it does reduce his trade value as asking too much teams will say, I'll wait it out. But if team really wanted him, they may over pay a little, but doubt it would ever be as high as a 1st or 2nd.

Wow!!. It's rare to find someone who thinks so highly of himself. Your arm must hurt from patting yourself on the back. No reason to start a Gofund me campaign as I'm sure the other 31 teams would love to hire someone as smart as you. Well unless the GoFund me campaign is to get rid of you again, then they'd likely be many people contributing.

They are highly regarded by people in the media who really don't know, let's see if actual NFL teams agree.. But you're right all you need is two teams and every year there's a number of teams that way over pay for someone.

If Denver wants a better QB option than the currently have I think they'd take a shot on Romo way before TT as with TT he may be a small upgrade, or maybe a downgrade over Lynch and Trevor.

If he succeeded, the extension was cheap by today's standard woiuld have been a cheap deal for a good NFL starting QB. If he failed, then you cut him and no money lost. I can't see how that would work as teams would know the Bills likely need to make a decision by the end of the NFL season, else they could be on the hook for the contract, plus isn't part of it a bonus so as long as he's with the Bills on that first day, they'd be on the hook for the entire bonus paid.. It would leave both the Bills and other interested teams in a game of chicken, who blinks first. Likely outcome could be they may be able to get something for him, if another team would want him at that contract, but at much less than what the Eagles got for Bradford. Plus would be surprised based on what he's shown this year that another team would want to take on that contact. I think it still may be they'd like to keep him, but sign him to a lower contract. Would he accept that, probably not likely without first tasting the FA market.
