  1. If the Bills could actually be a team on the field this talk would never exist. GreenBay has not got a new modern stadium but they are relevant to the league.

    The Bills are nothing more than potential money to visiting teams...we have no national appeal for TV because our executives and coaches have been so bad in the last 20 years.

    ​If we had a record like the Packers, Patriots or even the Giants no one would ever make these type of statements.

     

    Win on the field and all this type of talk stops.

  2. Ryan also said he wanted Harvin back . This guy is not a players coach, he is a flippin' phycologist...he never saw a stray ( down and out loser) he couldn't waste his time on when he should spend his time actually coaching.

    If he wants to solve the head issues of some of these guys he should get out of coaching and get a job as the team shrink.

  3. This guy will be helpful opps I mean loyal to our head coach to contribute to his legacy of being a players coach.

    His career has been so impressive the news article quoted his college stats from 5 years ago rather than say he had no positive effect on Cleveland Browns and was cut.

  4. John Blake = Rob Ryan

    Dunbar likely indicated RR was not welcome.

    Once again our head coach, (players coach of the highest order) demonstrates his skills at handling people. In the end they all love him because they owe him,

     

    This is another item to add to the list of signs we are in as much trouble as we were with Dick Jauron. The difference appears to be that Jauron was at least a gentleman.

  5. So a player....who did not play well in the scheme his HC employed....left and talked doo doo about it

     

    and you....who already had a pre conceived opinion about said HC now says that you had worst fears and this confirmed it.....because of course said player who was not resigned by the bills said so

     

    ok?

    What did you watch this year on the field. We didn't need a player to tell us what happened, this is just confirmation.

    What did show is this " great players coach" is what we thought he was...a fraud.

  6. According to WGR Sal Carpaccio the Bills are considering resigning Percy Harvin in an effort to support Sammy.

    WHAT? Harvin has disappointed every team he has ever played on. I am not knowledgeable enough to determine why Seattle cut his a?? in mid season, or why he failed to complete his Jets Season 2 years ago, or why the best special teams player in the NFC was sent packing but my guess would be more mental illness than physical. He has a history of failing teammates and teams at the most sensitive of times. That may be uncontrollable by PH, but when he is on your team it is always the shoe you are waiting to drop.

    IMHO his history speaks loudly and we should not be considering keeping this problem. We are not in the business of healing lost souls. If he had injured his leg and was not capable of making cuts to the left we would not be having this conversation.

    What say you?

  7. I detest Sullivan, hate is a little too strong, but in this column he makes real points for the first time in months.

    Rex mouth is far better than his coaching, history shows that. and as for his twin...never was never will be. They both live on Daddys rep

    He destroyed a highly motivated aggressive D last year, one that had few holes. Now we have to fill 2 or 3 spots (DE, 2 LB) and possible DT and SS (not his fault)

    Now we have players who no longer believe in what they are doing on D, perhaps the biggest challenge to overcome.

    I hope he enjoys his mai tai because I would not trust him to make draft selections

    the only problem is now he can blame Whaley is they miss on a pick. Rex is good at that.

  8. Stop the game and stop naming players as pro bowlers and that will fix it. The players association and agents will go crazy because they use it for bargaining and the players love to have their big egos with probowler written beside their name. (Like Brady...4 time SB champion and 14 times probowler.)

     

    It is a dumb game and was started to award the players with a vacation and money. They no longer value that so stop it.

    We all know that players named to the probowl has nothing to do with talent

  9. I don't know where Jerry gets this from that the team is going to regress next year. Who knows at this stage what will happen next year. Sully sadly has made a living off of being the negative guy.

    I know where...look at the Jets team he coached. We went into the season with a great Special Teams group and came out of it with nothing except penalties and a kicker who lost his confidence.

    We went into the season with a D that had a great pass rush and young LB like Brown with a huge future. We end up with almost no pass rush and Brown is lost and likely to be replaced.. On August 1st none of this would have been seen by you... or most people on this board.

    I began to comment on this happening when he decided to change the leadership on the team when Fredex was cut and Rex played dumb like he had nothing to do with it. that was gutless ​

    This was bad coaching to kill the D and STeams.

    Sullivan (whom I dislike) may have a good point.

  10. First ,while yes we lead the league in rushing and tyrod set a record for ya da ya da ...he did that to the detriment of about 100 passing plays that went for qb rushes instead. What good is leading the league in rushing if you are often behind, trying to pass, and scrambling instead? I dont get "amazed" anymore by all his running around. Its highly frustrating and annoying. A good rushing team needs to run with its running backs to hold a lead and play out the clock. Not lose to the giants, chiefs, eagles, pats, and skins while your qb dorks around throwing bombs on third and 3 or worse-3 yard flares on third and 10! Or worse yet -scrambling for 14 yards on 3rd and 15 that get called back for holding anyways.

     

    Lets be honest, with his slow release and inability to read the middle of the field, we are stuck with a qb who plays it safe and does everything ( i mean everything ) outside the hash marks. Will tightwad throw a 10 yarder to a tight end crossing? Nope. Will he hit anyone crossing the middle, ever? nope. How many slants were thrown this year? I think about zero. How are the rac yards for receivers on this team? Crap. The only middle type pass he throws is to a rb that hooks for 2 yards. But the player has to be stopped. He hit watkins and hogan for 2 nice stop routes last sunday. Both stopped, and on the sideline. His tds a few weeks ago, a fade to watkins, a hook out to woods, both on the outside. see the pattern yet? his other tds, almost all deep sideline passes. He tried exactly 2 deep posts down the middle this year. missed bad on one and connected on the other in double coverage. His sideline deep ball last week was in double coverage too, he still throws em, doesnt read it (or care?). watkins had to fight off the cb enough to get offensive PI. Ill admit he has great touch so its safe and watkins may catch it. He started the year doing this to harvin with some success. But this is all he has. When hes not going deep sideline hes throwing annoying little flares to the tight end or back. Always diagonal and outside the hash and for 3-4 yards. Usually results in a quick tackle on third and long. No first down. He doesnt care, its safe and maybe the receiver will break it. Do they? Nope.

     

    His other lame asset, running, has given us a ton of garbage time points, and yes a few game winners. But the problem is even his scrambles, almost every single one, are to the outside. He wont just shoot through the middle. With the middle WIDE OPEN, he stops, deeks backwards then runs sideways often losing ground and barely getting it back at the sideline. When he has a choice to cut back these outside runs, he doesnt. He just fakes in, but always goes outside, always and often short of the marker. And should we talk about all the holding penalties we got when he did this weird stop-go backwards and run outside move? They looked nice and all, til the flag got thrown. I think we had about 10 like that.

     

    Maybe its Roman. I tried to just focus on the middle of the field last week to see if any receivers crossed at all. Sme plays didnt have anyone, so maybe its not all the qbs fault. But this doesnt excuse his lame style of jumping backwards and trying to run around the Defensive End everytime he gets nervous in the pocket. Its decision making. Like his decisions to throw deep balls on third and short. Or the plays he SHOULD and COULD have scrambled on since he cant seem to throw an easy 5 yarder to someone. All year he would to go deep on 3rd and short, short on third and long, and run on third and very long.

     

    Bottom line is hes playing it safe, and his pretty deep ball passes cover up a huge hole in his game. His unwillingness to even try running up the middle bothers me and makes me question his courage. I watched itty bitty Kellen Moore hang in there and hang in there and deliver all kinds of passes all over the field. Especially third down passes. He was a better qb last week in his first start that tightwad was in week 16. Id take him straight up for "t mobile" ( where all calls must be either long distance or you can hand walk a letter) Time to switch carriers, we need a new QB next year.

     

     

    And this from a guy who loved Doug Flutie
