Strange that a list of 15+ Interviews/interview requests does not include a single college coach....

Seriously...Is there anyone we ARENT considerimg?

I think the Fans should take out a full page ad in the Buffalo News and thank him for changing the culture of the Bills. If well-done, it can be a classy goodbye from the fans that reeks of "you should be thanking US and saying goodbye to US" and also reads as a big "F-You" to Marrone. Someone more creative than I could do it justice... "Thank you Doug Marrone for changing the culture of the Buffalo Bills leading our beloved team to a 15-17 record over the past 2 years. The Fans of the Buffalo greatly appreciate your unwavering dedication to the Buffalo Bills and the Buffalo Community. We look forward to welcoming you back to Orchard Park in 2015!"

More likely than Mort getting played is that Mort is helping Polian out knowing that Polian needs people to think he is staying at ESPN.

The interesting thing is that HOF voting is 31 January. Polian CANT take a job before then or he is ineligible. I wonder if this report is just out there just so that it doesnt impact the HOF vote in 4 weeks....then Polian joins the Bills. Just a random thought...

Well this is getting fun. Matt Millen anyone??? (j/k)

This is very similar to the way Bill O'Brien left Penn State. Many said the same things "new players wont find him credible, etc.". Players are (rightfully) miffed, but at the end of the day its business, and people will move on. I think its crappy that both O'Brien and Marrone left without even telling their current players that they were leaving, but I guess that is what you should expect since they are both best of friends, and decendents from the Belichick tree.

The other thing with Schwartz is that you keep the Defensive coaches (who are under contract). That would prevent Marrone from taking them all to the Jets. Thats a big slap in the face to Marrone (although this is not a REASON to hire Schwartz...but it is a benefit).

At least It's obvious that playing him doesn't give us the best chance to win anymore!

Wow. Didnt see that one coming!

No. Pit would need to beat CIN to knock CIN out. We get in basically one of 2 ways (All starts with Bills winning out) 1) Pit wins out or, 2) Baltimore loses out. Its pretty close to that simple.

Guys...as long as we dont overlook Oakland, there is a chance we can be playing New England for a playoff spot. 10-6 doesnt guarentee us a playoff slot, but I was fooling around with ESPN's Playoff Machine. If everyone who is higher in the power rankings wins out...and we go 10-6, we miss the playoffs. But to show you how close it is, if only ONE game changes (SF beats San Diego, or Houston beats Baltimore, or Cleveland beats Baltimore, or Kansas City beats San Diego) we are IN. Gotta be happy we are in this position! 10-6 gets in almost evey other year.

Time of Posession: Buffalo: 13:59 Denver: 5:20 Keep that up!!!

AHhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I do like Peyton and Eli. I think they are good ambasadors for the game...but I hope Peyton gets pounded into the pavement today. Seriously, I dont care how much you hate them...the truth is that without them, Tom Brady would likely have 3 more super bowl rings (XLI, XLII and XLVI). For that reason alone you gotta love 'em! But not today.!!!

You're up Lebron.

Mike Williams for Doug Martin?

Strength of Victory

And then...in true Buffalo fashion, we lose to Denver and Green Bay...We lay an egg in Oakland...and then all we need to do is beat the Patriots 3rd string...and we finish 9-7. The script is written...

Because the division tiebreaker is first. Baltimore wins over Pittsburgh. We win over Baltimore. Need to go 10-6 to get in, IMO.

Hackenberg is probably on everyone's list of QBs. The kid has #1 overall talent, and looks the part too. If he can learn to eliminate some of his decision making mistakes...I think he is a sure-fire first rounder. I wouldnt say he suffers from a lack of weapons. That WR corp is pretty good. Young (bunch of true Freshman and a Sophomre), but they are good. Good TE's too (James especially - guy will be in the NFL, probably a late round pick though). RB is a weak spot, but that is mostly due (again) to the line. Lynch and Belton were good last year, but are getting tore up behind that abysmal line. If MIles Diffenbach comes back (SR Guard who has been injured all year, but may play tonight), that should help a TON. The left side of the line should be "average" at that point.

I guess this is our first chance to find out how cheap Pegula is...

I never supported Trump, except as maybe as a better option over JBJ, or anyone with overt designs to taking the team to LA, Toronto, or elsewhere. But the guy is a blow-hard. The one thing I'll say about him is that he wants to "win" at whatever he does...so he would have given it a good shot, and spent the money so he doesnt look like a failure...but then again, he has a long list of "failures" on his resume these days. But I agree...can this guy just go away?
