I really don't get how someone with so little experience at upper level coaching gets so much interest. But I think the DC and OC are more important than the HC. There is only one exception to that, and he has Brady to back him up.

If this happened, how would it affect the cap?

Isn't that the definition of a Tsunami?

I agree with you, revisionist is the perfect word to describe it. It was Marrones' dream job. I guess Bill's fans didn't know the Syracuse job was also his dream job. It seems we are forgetting the pitiful offense and the vanilla play calling, although calling it vanilla is actually a complement in this case. He left because after two years he knew he only had what he had because of the defense.

The statement about how fast someone can process information, IMO, is dead on. Einstein was a genius but how fast did he process information. I doubt it was fast, his field of expertise didn't require fast. I believe that may be the biggest non-physical attribute a QB needs. Posts keep referring to Kelly's score. Didn't he call most of the plays when he was in the game? It looked like he did a pretty good job at it.

TT had first rate receivers. Woods and Sammy are first rate. For two years Woods was talked down here. It wasn't his fault the QB couldn't get him the ball. If the ball was thrown his way, more often than not it was off target. Not until Sammy was out this year and TT started targeting Woods, could you see just how good Woods is. Most here think Woods is a 3rd receiver. I think he is a 1B. He should sign with the Pats. If Brady can do that with Hogan, I can only imagine what he can do with Woods. This is Clays problem also. I'd like to see a stat on how often Clay is open and doesn't get looked at.

Football is a brutal contact sport. In order to get the most out of your players they have to have a coach that can convince them to go out be physical. So I would hire Ted Nolan. He always gets the most out of his players. I don't think it matters in the least whether he knows football or not. Then I would go out and hire two ex-head coach's as the OC and DC. Guys that were great as coordinators but didn't make it as head coaches. A guy like Wade Philips for the D, and at the moment no one in particular for the Offense but I am sure others can come up with some good names. Then I would invert the pay scale by not paying the head coach the most. No offense to Ted but successful coordinators should be payed the most. You don't put water in your beer, so why would you dilute the ability of a good coordinator by filling him with the duties of a head coach.

Sadly, when only looking at the positions, it looks like it is from 2013, give or take a year.

In short series Smith really has a chance but in a long series Bayless would be untouchable.

Not sure where your signal is from but the Bills are playing an NFC team at home, which means Fox does the game. In Syracuse, the Giants own the Fox station, so I think you are out of luck on that.

Does that mean you also think it was odd that so many successful distance runner came from Kenya? Hayes was unique in the land of sprinters, in that he could actually catch the ball.

Nice call. He was one of the first two names that came to mind. But I think I would go with the other one, Robert James, Put him on the oppositions best receiver and forget about him, Totally changes the way you could approach defense, Rex would have loved him.

Where is the punter. He is the sure winner in this.

This was tried before. Remember Tom Donahoe.

I never said anything about officiating. I just wanted to see the plays, as they normally do. They just didn't show them in those cases. If tackling continues the way it was today. They are likely to have troubles on defense.

If the Bills tackled as well as the Ravens, I think they win the game. On several plays the Ravens brought down the ball carrier with just one guy hitting him. There were some decent plays with blocking in the front of the carrier that gained nothing. On the other hand it seems the Bills needed several of them to bring down the Raven ball carriers. Many times the Raven carrier picked up 5 to 7 yards after first contact. I realize it depends on the position of the tackler, but just seemed to happen all to often. Not that it would have affected the game, but I thought Duke Williams should have brought down the receiver on the touchdown pass. How close does the guy behind have to be in order to bring down the guy in front of him? He certainly seemed close enough to me/ The camera coverage sure left something to be desired. Where was the end line camera on the touchdown that wasn't, that was appealed? And on the roughing the passer?

To be fair to EJ, if he was given the same leeway as TT, the Jax description would be more like this. "Despite the worse 5 minutes a QB could have ever had, he came back and led the Bills into the lead. He really is a baller. Kept his confidence throughout and did not fold. If the defense held, he would have had the win." Of course, he is not TT. So it reads more like, "EJ sucks and cost the Bills the entire season." Perception is reality.

He was very truthful in this. But it is a little more accurate if he said "taking what I saw."

I looked at this and said what does this have to do with anything. Then I got it. Thanks for the laugh.

What I really can't understand, is how Skip Bayless even has a job, Is there anyone who actually likes listening to him. I really doubt it.

Thanks for doing this. It adds a lot to the season. Picking the teams is really the second challenge. First challenge is remembering to do it.

He was the perfect replacement host for Dick Schaap on the Sports Reporters. IMO it takes someone special to host that show when there are so many reporters on that show that seem to be LAMP's (or is it LAMR's) instead of real reporters. He was one of the few that made that show watchable. RIP.

I am suprised I have not seen one quote from the movie this comes from as there are so many great lines in it. Although most are more than one line. "Dyin' ain't much of a living'"

Today I learned there are some interesting topics on "Off the Wall." This would be one of them.

Dam that was a fast response.
