F*UCK REX RYAN. HATED THE HIRE and proven to be a disaster

I give up. Rooting for this team is sheer torture year after year. !@#$ Rex Ryan. The defense sucks.

Flawed? What? This year doesn't count? Gimme a break. Roman's team's offensive numbers over his four years in SF say he was coaching an average to slightly above (not this year) average offense. It's okay dude. You aren't going to convince me otherwise. The numbers are the numbers. I looked them up. They're pretty average. I'll look at the numbers rather than listen to your personal opinion. But it's cool. Don't sweat it.

Ok, fact: San Fran ranked 25th in points scored this year. Never said Roman sucks . . . just said he's just average.

Elway is looking at bringing back his buddy Kubiak to coach Denver. I live in Denver and it's all over the news here. It could happen. Kubiak said he wouldn't leave Baltimore. But if he gets offered the gig in Denver, you think he's going to turn it down? It's the one job he might go back on his words for. Yep, we all know it's been the offense in San Fran and not the defense that has carried them the last few years . . . come on man.

Did I say anything about Norv Turner? I said Shannahan and Kubiak. Baltimore's running game was bottom 5 in 2013 without Kubiak and once he gets there, Justin freakin' Forsett averages 5 and a half per carry. If we wanted to fix the running game Kubiak was the answer. Remember when Denver would plug in any RB and they'd just keep on leading the league in rushing? San Francisco made it to all of those big games based on their defense, not their offense. They have no rings lately because the offense wasn't good enough. In our case, when the defense is good as it is, I think they should have brought in an offensive minded coach and left the defense alone. Who says bringing in a coach on the side of the ball that is weaker is a ridiculous concept? You?? What makes you an expert? The converse of this is that if you have a bad offense you need to bring in a defensive minded guy. . . What kind of logic is that??

I agree completely with the OP. Bringing in Rex, and going back to the defensive scheme of 2013, and letting Schwartz walk is a step-backwards. Period. The proof is that our defense was much better in 2014 than 2013. Moving Dareus to DE or NT is not his strength. The 4-3 fits our personnel better. Mario now will have to basically play OLB, which he is on record as saying he doesn't like. I'm stunned at the overwhelming percentage of posters who like this hire. Logic says it is backwards. We took our strength (defense) and changed it, and didn't address our offensive weakness nearly enough. Those who think Roman is a savior must not have watched SF games much. Mike Shannahan or Gary Kubiak would have supplied instant ground game improvement, along with keeping Schwartz and the defense the same, would have made more logical sense. A "flashy" hire that doesn't address your biggest weakness, just because a guy makes for an entertaining interview, is ridiculous.

Just say no to Quinn. I could have coached the Seattle defense and they'd have been good. He would remove Schwartz, and who knows? The defense could take a step backwards. Not to mention we'd be at the mercy of who he'd be able to convince to come in and run the offense. I doubt a high-caliber coach would take the Buffalo OC job under a first-time rookie HC.

The people thinking this was a bad move really don't know football. They must be the casual fan-types. Stevie had good short area quickness and okay hands and was tough. But, he had key drops, lacked any speed, had no downfield game, had absolutely no RAC ability (run after catch, for you casual fan-types). SJ was no threat so him being out there would allow other teams to feel real good about stacking the box. His loss is addition by subtraction. Him playing would simply have been wasting valuable playing time for young speedster/playmakers.

Gee, didn't we just pick up the 5th year option? Unbelievable

Is it not true? Not having Cam is a blessing. He's overrated. Carolina will always be teased.

I don't care if you believe me, but I HATED the Dareus pick. Wanted AJ Green. Everybody was all poo-pooing taking a WR. But you tell me, would you trade Dareus for AJ? Of course you would. AJ is a difference-maker. Dareus is just pretty good.

I just read that the Pats have now agreed to terms with former Seahawk CB Brandon Browner . . . the rich get richer and sign good players . . . and we sign "depth". The more things change . . .

CBS sportsline's NFL Draft Scout.com said Da'Rick Rogers could be the best WR in this draft class!!! And a Pro-Bowler if he keeps his head on straight! We just added a UDFA that is the most talented WR on this roster. A "virtual Julio Jones clone".

We have tremendously upgraded our WR core. I can't ever remember a draft when the Bills added so much potential at one position as at WR in the last couple of days. I'm so glad we don't have to watch Fitz throw a 7 yarder to Stevie, and watch Stevie slide down . . . on 3rd and 9!
