Didn't rex try to hire him last year, but he chose Buffalo?

Maybe we can move him to Tight End.

I'm thinking Russ Brandon, even if in the back of his mind, thought that this hire would help sell tickets in Syracuse as part of his regionalization plan. I'm hoping that isn't true, but would be a pretty obvious thing to happen if the marketing side of his job played any influence. And that would suck if it did.

Yes, I'll root for him. I think he is suited to be a great offensive coordinator. Head coach and OC at the same time? No. But he really had to go. He didn't adjust, and got stubbor with certain things that he shouldn't have, and also had some influence in bad personnel decisions (Ruvel martin, anyone?). Good guy, though. Straight shooter in press conferences. Owned his mistakes. I like to root for the good guys.

Because a marketing guy shouldn't run football operations. Decisions are made to sell tickets, not build a team. For example - Tyrell Owens.

We know what happened last time Russ Brandon tried to get in the football decision business. It was just as bad (or worse) that what we have now. Remember when he went "scouting"? Yeah, that was awesome, wasn't it? I'm concerned again that we have a marketing guy making football decisions again, and we're going to spin our wheels again.

With a restructured contract, Fitz would be a great backup. He could get you through a few games if the main guy gets injured, and would be great in the locker room and film room.

I understand what you mean, however I think Chan & Fitz's body of work will speak for itself, and a decision has likely been made already. Winning the last two games won't change anything, unless they look like a totally new team, and if they do that will be a good thing.

I'd rather pray that a light comes on for the entire team, and it will be seen as a turning point for the future. Sorry, hoping to lose is for losers.

+1 for knowing the proper use of "hear hear"

!@#$ patience. I've been a supportive, patient fan for my entire life. !@#$ it. Patience is part of what got us in this shithole in the first place. So !@#$ patience. I'd rather win.

Or shown to be more overrated?

I had the same injury a few years ago. My Dr. said they don't generally do surgery on an MCL. I was better in a few weeks, and 100% after a month - and I was 42 at the time and old guys like me heal slower. Wood will be fine.

Do this: Google "Rob Ryan Idiot", then google "Rob Ryan Idiot", then google "Rob Ryan Loudmouth" and you'll get your answer. You could also watch his stupid act on the sideline for a game or two.

You're kidding, right?

No. We don't need an obnoxious, blowhard buffoon of a coach to comete with the same thing in NY. Rex Ryan is making a mess of his team, and his brother is of the same ilk. Not a great idea, bro. Sometimes I think people like coaches just because they are obnoxious and get lots of face time on TV for being obnoxious.

Se we would go from one inaccurate passer to an even more inaccurate passer? Sounds brilliant.

Marcel looks slow and overweight. I'm sure his heart is heavy, along with his body. Add to that a sophomore slump, and you get crappy play.

I can think of many better ways to spend my Sundays. This team is a waste of time.

Could not possibly be more inaccurate than Fitz.

Oh, so now it is because he hasn't gelled with his WRs? I thought it was playcalling? Here's the truth: Fitz is inaccurate. He misses wide open targets nearly as much as he hits them. He has a horrible, horrible deep ball. These are facts. We should deal honestly with them. I think you are avoiding the accuracy issue. He misses open targets with plenty of time to throw. Yesterday he missed Stevie twice, DJ once, Chandler once and Freddie once - all on short to medium routes. He overthrew two deep balls. How would allowing him to call his own plays improve his ability to hit open targets?

I like the Wildcat if we don't pass from it. Think of it this way - when we use the wildcat, Fitz isn't throwing inaccurate passes. Addition by subtraction.

I hear you, but Fitz is very inaccurate and can't be relied on to win a game for the Bills. Two horrible passes to SJ, one to DJ, one to Chandler, and another a *rookie* missed. You expect that out of a rookie. You don't expect horrible passes from your starting QB. I think our standards have been lowered if we're defending a bad QB because he can make calls at the line. If Fitz connected on just two of those passes the game would have been completely different.
