Thought this was an interesting and telling quote from Chan in the post game press conference. It isn't in the Bills or nfl.com highlights, but is in WGR's recording.
The question (comment) was: "You seemed to really stick with the run today. You really stayed with it against a pretty talented front 7".
Chan said: "The longer we played, the tighter their safeties played. That's why in the second half we ended up throwing a little bit more in the second half. I would have liked to have run it even more but they wouldn't let us do it."
Yes, the offense wasn't great today, and Fitz played terribly. But this comment (and, given, when the Bills tried to run it at the end of the game, they couldn't get anything), makes me think Chan is the right guy to run the O.
The Wildcat call was stupid. Going conservative and punting was extremely questionable. But I also thought Chan did a good job on playcalling up until 3:00 left in the game.
Given that we've had Mularkey, Schonert, Van Pelt, this is a nice change. Yes, I know Chan sucked today, but he called a decent O game up until the end. That I appreciate. If he can continue doing that, get his head out of his ass as a HC, and Wannstedt continues to blitz, we may have a fighting chance at a season.
