Did we overlook these comments by Dareus?
KOKBILLS replied to Buffalo_Stampede's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agreed...I was right there too...As completely naive as it may have been I honestly thought Rex would sell Schwartz on coming back when he was hired... I have to say though that the minute I heard Schwartz would not return i was a bit concerned...But even then, like you, I thought there was no way Rex could screw it up as bad as he did...The thought never crossed my mind...Until week #2 that is...Then the thought hit me like a sledgehammer to the temple... -
The Doug Whaley positives are taking huge hits.
KOKBILLS replied to FireChan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well...While I don't disagree that Brown had a really disappointing year, he may very well have been the most effected Bills Defender by Ryan coming to town... The move from WLB in Schwartz 4-3 where PB thrived, to MLB in Ryan's...whatever it is...just killed his progression...Brown was playing out of position and asked to be the field leader for a Defense he was struggling to learn...I don't think there is a snowballs chance in hell that Preston is back at MLB for this Defense next year... IMHO Preston Brown did not forget how to play football...The same way Mario, Dareus, and the rest did not forget...Rex came in, blew up a good thing, and what's left in the wake is an absolute ton of questions going forward... -

So...I'm guessing I'm not the only one who is well beyond concerned that keeping Rex means this may get a lot worse before it gets better... Again... -
Yes... Needs another year for sure...But that Ole Miss team probably won't be as good next year either...It's an interesting decision he has to make...It's not cut and dry... I'd take him...I'm assuming he's matured a bit...I doubt very much he'll be a 1st round pick even if he comes back...Maybe mid-late 1st with a great 2016...I really don't think there's much doubt he has potential...I like his game...He's a competitive kid...

Marrone/Schwartz to Miami? Nope. Gase it is.
KOKBILLS replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Maybe not... But he sure as hell has not been the solution either... -

You have to admit...Rex is a funny, funny dude... -
As a 1st Round QB prospect Cook does nothing for me... And before anyone comes out guns-a-blazing I realize there are many, many different ways to evaluate a College QB...None of which are foolproof... That being said...If I'm a GM...I'm not putting a 1st Rd grade on any College QB with a completion percentage below 60% in their final College season...I'm just not doing it... I see Cook as a 2nd-3rd Round developmental type...That's not to say he won't develop into a fine NFL QB in time...But like Cousins I think it's going to take a few years...And that's why I would not touch him in the 1st round...Because in today's NFL if you take a QB in the 1st he's not going to get much time to develop...Maybe a year...But chances are the team that needs him is going to need him fast...And I think if Cook gets rushed in he'll crumble...Like he did last night...

While this debate is going on about Rex I think it's important to look at Rex's Defenses over the past couple years rather than fall back on the success he had overall in the past because the league is always changing...And if you're not getting better...well... The truth is Rex's Defenses have been in the bottom third of the league for two consecutive years in the key...I mean key...category of 3rd down conversion percentage...That's not good for a guy that prides himself on his ability to confuse opposing QB's...The Bills are 16th in scoring Defense this year...The Jets were in the bottom 3rd of the league in scoring Defense in 2013 and 2014... Honestly...I get that Rex has had some great Defenses in the past...But the last 3 years I think there is at least a bit of evidence that the NFL has caught up to him...And if that trend continues, the next couple years could get really messy...

I would take a flyer on Jones any day...But I'm sure you know more than I do about he kid Yolo...He just seems to have everything physically...

Tyrod Taylor had a quietly spectacular day
KOKBILLS replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Exactly... No matter what they better get insurance and a young QB to develop...If for no other reason than the impending contract situation...But certainly there are a bunch of other reasons as well... All good points... The lack of urgency and efficiency in clock management was well beyond frustrating at times...What happened at the end of the half yesterday should never, ever happen...Ever...That was a joke...And it's been going on all year... -

KOKBILLS replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think year one for TT was certainly good enough... But he's going to need to take another big step in year two... The third down efficiency was simply not good enough (20th in the league at around 37%)...And IMHO that was a lot of what you pointed out...One read, scramble and run...And when coupled with the fact that the Bills Defense is 23rd in stopping opponents on 3rd down...It was a real bad mix this season... On a side note Rex's Jets D was 30th...30th in the league in stopping opponents on 3rd down in 2014!!! And you guessed it...The Bills D under Schwartz was 1st in the league in that category...So... -

KOKBILLS replied to Beerball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
After the way this team has struggled mightily with clock management this season that last minute just proved they have done nothing to improve on it... I like Tyrod...But there is no excuse for that garbage...Just terrible... -

Honest to God I can't believe that last play... You let that much time run off the clock and don't even throw the freaking ball in the end-zone? Good grief... -

Must-read for anyone who wants to draft a QB
KOKBILLS replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
TT will be the obvious choice to start in 2016...I don't think many Bills fans doubt that... But that certainly does not mean you can't keep trying to do better... I mean...Technically almost all good QB's got Drafted at one point or another...Draft and try to develop...It can't hurt... -
