you are 100 percent right. The national media break almost every story because the locals have no relationships, even with the players. If TT gets a bruised toe some national guy mentions it and never credits a local reporter. The locals debate rumours they create, never facts. By the way, do you think that Rex and Pegula discussed Whaley's future since they have the same reporting structure. I hope not, so why is it so hard to think Whaley was in on the Rex decision. It was not a hi-bred structure, it was a pure structure.

Quit blaming everyone except the guy who created this. Consider It was reported 3 weeks ago that Rex told Lynn he would be the next head coach Rex has weekly meeting with Pegula, private if he wants without Whaley He may have had one with Pegula 3 weeks ago and may have been advised that missing the playoffs would bring on a serious review of his status Pegula may have said less than 50/50 chance to survive before Jets game he by all reports had a private call with Pegula where he likely gave Pegula an ultimatum and Pegula bit and said you are gone, and with that attitude you may as well leave now. Or perhaps they told him of the TT decision and that brought on a power play by Rex and Pegula pushed the button. easy to see that Whaley was not part of this Easy to see that the organization is not strong and united Rex walks with lots of money, once again burning a bridge in an uncompleted job. Pegula still has lots of money. Whaley has grief but likely more power...that is OK with me, no owner should have a head coach work for him. If you want a team organization to have cohesion the coach has to work for the GM, ask Polian

The most incredible day a fan could have. Sat in what was then section D, south corner , scoreboard end. My brother in law left at half time to drink beer in the parking lot. .....hahaha, Two huge memories 1) how the players on the sidelines were into the game as a TEAM 2) Darryl Talley

Seriously, the only winner he is involved in is his girl friend. He is a wash out

This game was over on the first play when EJ had to stand and stare at the sidelines looking for the play....the first fuuggin play....6 days of preparation, and Lynn and his boys cannot give the QB a play to run without out thinking the other defence because they JETS are so smart????? The first step in playing football is to do what you do best until the other team stops you on a regular basis. A QB on a winning team NEVER stands starring at the sidelines trying to hear a play call

Why is it that nobody loves Sam Bradford???? there must be a reason as he moves from team to team I for one would prefer TT to Bradford

There is not a better QB available in the NFL so TT has to stay and the drafting or development of Jones is the only way to proceed. Impossible to get a QB in a trade who would be better than TT (think Bledsoe) Sign him and coach the team to 10 wins like so many other teams do. Denver, is an example.

Nice....

EJ sitting alone onn the bench. real leaders, real QBs stand on the sidelines, helmet in hand ready to take revenge and lead the O back. he is DONE ....finally

Rex has always been a players coach which translates into real life as 1) he plays favorites always 2) he makes excuses for some and punishes others who don't follow him like a disciple 3)he keeps his favs way to long ( such as Spikes) who do not earn their keep, and gives his special friends more chances (Harvin types) 4) he uses his favs to spy on the team and pass messages to the team and thus splits the team. You can have players who lead and teach on the field but the message cannot be created by the head coach so they become just a pipeline. 5) cuts players who he should keep likely because he gets info from his spys (Hogan comes quicklt to mind) Rex had the same issues at the Jets, his father had the same issues and split the team eventually I have no direct proof of this but we have all seen it and if it smells like a dead fish it likely is a dead fish. Good Bye Rex, you may know football but you aren't a leader and never will be.

TT is a serviceable and perhaps a decent QB. He survived the dreaded 2nd season and came out better than last year in my opinion. The issue is does his skill match the money his agent believes he deserves. IMHO, everyone would support him as a keeper if he was paid $10M per. until we found the young QB who may be better. Maybe Jones, unlikely EJ but Sunday will show us something of EJ. EJ has a real issue with the short pass, not sure he can be fixed.

I am not knowledgeable enough to comment, but do we know anyone that can describe the complexity of Rex's D with that of the Patsy's. I hear players talk about on field communication being too complex, but how does that relate to Belicheats who has been through numerous D coordinators and have not lost much. They seem to plug and play.

hold it, he might be a real asset, since we all know Rex is a players coach and can rehab any player with love. We also need to keep a rooster spot for Spikes again. Spikes, Harvin, Bush, maybe Fitzpatrick could come to the party, and Aaron Williams could join in...wow this Rex is a genius.

cannot even get a play in .....fire them at half time for the effect for the fans and players who may care

Dareus is the biggest waste of money on this team

how come Rex's best bud Spikes can't be in there to stop the run....oh yeh, forgot he is a players coach and doesn't put people in position to fail

There is something to be said for consistency. It is like watching re runs of your favorite movie. You always know what is going to happen,

There is a part of me that would like to see the Bills lose this game so that Dareus and Rex have to pay the price for the country club they have become known for. Dareus is a con artist, Go Bills my love of the Bills stops me from actually wanting this to occur. To bad Dareus doesn't feel the same

Why should Thurman carry the can for Rex...it is his team, his D that he bragged about, His D that he brought his brother in to support, Rex will blame the injury of a draft choice, he will blame the LBs he has as not being the prototypical for his D and will want to cut them all. He will blame Hughes for not buying in and cut him first for his disagreement with Rob making someone look bad. He will blame our CBs who last year were the only saving grace. He will NOT blame Rob, or his choice to have Spikes on this team ( who is a cancer sitting on the bench), nor will he blame his gutless handling of Dareus. Thurman is way down the list of responsible people.

Some days I agree with this and some days I do not, but on average I have decided not to care...

looking closely at the video the guy looks a great deal like Rob Ryan in disguise ( he usually is seen on Sundays imitating a D genius).. ....that gives Rex an explanation for the bad D performance.

I vote for anyone who is not a players coach. This is not pop warner. I want a COACH WHO HAS THE BALLS to openly put guys like Darius on the bench in mid game and make it obvious that he has been benched, Following the game any player who complains that the coach embarrassed Darius should get cut or benched (money/ contracts have to be considered). That would include Sammy, Shady, Wood, or who ever. It would only take once. At that point the coach is now running the team. Football is only participatory when you begin to win, and players and coaches are on the same page...and to start it must be the coaches page. Every player knows that guys like Hogan could have helped this team. Any player who actually thought that Harvin and Spikes should be on this team have no desire to win. Belicheat knows how to handle malcontents...what real players want is to win not to have a party atmosphere everyday or to be treated fairly because they do not like to be embarrassed. Embarrassment was Sunday. The embarrassment was self created. Don't give me the party line that we are reviewing film etc etc etc. Fans do not need to watch film to know these players are not doing their part...if the wrong D is called and you lose fire the coach. If the players cannot even get on the field when they are suppose to be (Game 12) the player has to go. For General Manager, anyone other than Doug W. If he actually has the power to control a rooster that allowed Spikes and Harvin to be part of this then he has to go. If he disagreed and Rex made the call then I may reconsider.

All you have to do is mention to Kim that they paid Harvin enough to get his migraine meds for the rest of his life and Hogan could be a pro bowl receiver. Enough said about the judgements of Rex and Doug.

It has been said before. Rex is a players coach, they love him and would run thru a brick wall for him. They just don't care to play and focus on football. They would rather focus on the brick wall.

players don't quit on Rex, he is a players coach, they love him and would run thru brick walls for him. they just won't man up and play football.
