This keeps being said and while I agree the D was frickin' horrible last night and couldn't get off the field, the O (much like last year) can't pick up first downs and stay on the field. It's not a "one or the other" type thing. The D can't do their job if the O can't give them a rest and some field position. It's a combination of the D and O that caused the huge ToP disparity last night, not just the D. That being said, firing your OC 5 days into the season if about as stupid as stupid gets. Of course it's a panic move, if it wasn't you would have replaced him in the offseason. What we've seen thus far this year isn't a whole lot different than what we saw last season. We knew what we were getting with a Roman led offense.

Obviously, Dennis Thurman, the DC. Duh!

Even with no pass rush they couldn't stop those WRs. At least early in the game they were getting pressure and causing mistakes. There were 2 fumbles on the opening drive and an incomplete pass that was almost a fumble as well.

It means Rex doesn't have the backbone of Wade.

I'm guessing he doesn't do it. That way he can separate himself from the offense as much as possible so it's "those guys" that aren't playing well.

Yeah, this was my first thought as well. This is much like the Turk firing, just two weeks later. I'm not sure which is worse.

Yep, this reeks of the firing of Turk Schonert after the final pre-season game in 2009. If they had such an issue with the coordiantor then make the change in the offseason. What did you see in 2 games that you were unaware of after an entire year?

Should fire Dennis Thurman too, it's obviously his fault the D hasn't performed up to expectations.

Firing the OC after the D lays the biggest egg in recent memory is an interesting idea...

We saw him tonight. When needed to win a game with his arm he isn't capable of doing it. Without a stout running game the Bills lose.

Wait, is this the first, "wait till next year" post of the season? I think it might be!

I don't follow hockey and my teams are the Bills and Phillies.

What trimester is the D in? Can we legally abort?

And Goodwin got hurt for good measure.

Fair catch with 10 seconds left and 15 yards between the returner and the nearest defender.

Much more important to try and draw them offsides with a hard count!

I'm not even sure I've ever seen him kick a successful onside kick.

In true Bills fashion they'll get the onside kick, score a TD...and miss the extra point, then lose in overtime.

Just f'in horrible. WTF. Can't even run a 2 minute offense

Unfortunately 4th place schedules aren't what they used to be.

What Shady needs to do is run backwards more. He doesn't do it enough.

They're not coming, this is now the de facto bad D thread.

I don't just blame Rex. I blame Dareus who quite on his team so he could get high. Good job D, hope you had a good time.

0-4 here we come.

FG is the kill.
