KOKBILLS

Thank you, thank you, thank you Vikes secondary!!! This REALLY helped me win my FF Championship!!! Love those guys!!!

Amazing...

Well...If it's a prospect-type were talking about think of Darron Lee... I know Zach was athletic enough when he came into the league...Now I seriously doubt it...I think both Brown's are better fits at the Sam in the 4-3...Not that they can't play the Will in a pinch...But preferably you want a guy that can fly around...

Exactly...Monday is the day to celebrate...

On offense sure...But what makes you think he would keep the Defensive coaches? I'm guessing if Lynn was to get the job it will be under the understanding that anyone remotely related to Rex Ryan's schemes on Defense will not be welcome...There is no way they replace Rex and keep parts of his Defensive staff around...If they do I'll go on record right now to say how completely moronic that idea is... No question if Lynn (or any other HC prospect) was to keep any remnants of Ryan's defensive coaching staff, defensive philosophy, defensive anything, I'm dead set against that hire...I just don't think it's even remotely possible...

Exactly right...

Safety is the early leader for #1 need...For sure...But we'll see how the off season shakes out...

Nothing against anyone here of course...But I don't see how any Bills fans could think we will win any game until well after the clock has expired...I always give myself 5-10 minutes after a win thinking there's still a chance they could call us back out to the field for some made up crap...

I thought the issues with Kujo's knee was why they prefer him on the Left Side? I swear I heard/read that somewhere...Maybe Sal said it...

Yep...Well said...

I think Fangio is a good Defensive coach...Better than Rex...But I would argue bringing a 3-4 guy in is a BIG mistake based on the Bills current front 7 personnel...I think Rex has pretty much proven that... Dareus and KW are far better suited inside in a 4 man front...Shaq Lawson IS NOT an OLB, but should fit nicely at 4-3 DE...Hughes is much better as a down DE...I'm guessing they would pencil in Ragland at the Mike, and they would need to get an athletic Will...But otherwise they are set on the front 7 if they want to run a traditional 4 man front... I strongly believe a ton of the Bills problems on Defense was Rex's scheme and the personnel never matching it... My preference for Bills DC is Gus Bradley...

Exactly...

Wow...That was definitely PI...But that delay...Ugh...

What a joke...

Glad Dareus is back...Rex was quick to hint that was a lot of the problem last time vs Miami...Not seeing it make much difference so far...

The Bills are 22nd in 3rd Down Defense...To be honest I thought it was WAY worse than that...

Would LOVE to know who Lynn would consider for DC... To be honest at this point if it's anyone who runs a base 4-3 I'm all ears...I feel our personnel is more ready to run a base 4-3 than a 3-4 still...Even after 2 years of Rex...

Big time!

Well...The whole point here is it's not you or me making the decision right? Then we would be in serious trouble!!! Purely JMO...But I'd take Coughlin over Rex in a heartbeat because I think Coughlin is a better Head Football Coach...That does not mean he's going to end the streak...I would not make that prediction because there are way too many variables...I just think he's better than Rex...And I think it's fair to assume the Pegs believe the same... I just can't get over Rex's inability to right the ship on Defense...I promise if the Offense was our only problem I would be behind Rex because I genuinely like the guy...I love the way he embraced Buffalo...But when you're a self-proclaimed defensive genius, and this is the best you can do, I just can't... On a side note hope you have a Happy Holiday Season 26!!!

I just get the feeling the Pegs interest in Coughlin is real and legit...And to a point I think it's logical because a Coughlin hire is obviously not a re-build move...It's a move that says ownership believes that Rex did not get the most of the talent he was given...And probably indicates they were not happy with the game plans and game day coaching, especially against the better teams they faced, since he got here... But...Whether or not they can pull it off to the satisfaction of everyone concerned is the main issue...Plus, I'm sure Coughlin will want to talk to others as well... I think the Pegs will move on this only if they are 100% convinced they can do better than Rex...I also think many of the reports have to do with folks inside OBD knowing their interest in Coughlin...But if they can't convince Coughlin to come, as much as I'm not a Rex fan, I do admit they could do worse...So I think that's why it seems like a lot of BS just flying around...There are a ton of puzzle pieces being moved around right now, and a few different potential outcomes and quite a few jobs possibly on the line...So it seems like chaos...

Agreed... And if I was Whaley I would take Trubisky if I had the chance...No matter how high they are on Cardale... I have not seen enough film on Trubisky to determine if he worthy of a top 5 pick...I have seen enough to feel he's worthy of a mid 1st...I like what I see so far...

Honestly...Everyone who follows the Draft and Scouting seemed to know this...Except Rex and Whaley...I do think Rex was pushing hard saying Shaq would fit that spot...Rex is the HC running this incredible Defense...So obviously he knows best... And for the record I think Shaq will be a very good 4-3 DE in the NFL... I think I watched just about every snap from Shaq's Sr year...Twice...The off the ball thing was real...It was the single biggest negative on Shaq... But I came away loving the kid...Not because I thought he was the next Bruce Smith...I loved him because he clearly showed he was disciplined in his approach to the game, and he never gives up on a play...His game is not the flashy speed rush game you get with a true edge guy...It's more of a traditional 4-3 DE who knows his responsibilities, follows them to the letter, and he'll give you some decent pass rush as a bonus...A lot of his sacks came from pure hustle and determination...But I would not sell him short as an athlete either...He's not slow...I think this may be a product of no training camp, or just a misconception...I think when you understand what the kid brings it's almost impossible not to like him... So...That's my mini Scouting report on Shaq...I think he'll be fine...

5-2 career vs Belichick...Came within a last play of the game FG in 2015 of being 6-1...

I hear what you're saying... But seriously? The Browns? The biggest outlier of a open coaching situation...maybe ever? There is absolutely no comparing the cluster*** of that situation to the current Bills...It's not even close to being the same... The Bills job may not be a glamour job...I think we agree on that much...But it's a solid organization with excellent ownership...Are their problems? You bet...But I think plenty of HC candidates will see the positives outweigh the negatives by far...

Well...You can break it down anyway you want...One of those 4 wins came against a NE team starting their injured 3rd string QB...If you want to over-complicate it there's any number of ways to do it... I think it's pretty simple... Teams that have a winning record so far this year, or finished with one last year...IE...The teams that end up as Playoff teams...The better teams in the NFL... But you can break it down anyway you want to make Rex look better...That's your prerogative...
