Exactly. IMO, who cares if the guy is a hard azz, he gets results. The 49ers were very stupid to let him go as Harbaugh was the first coach in years to make the 49ers a successful team again.
I agree. I know many people were worried about Schwartz taking over, especially since he is known for not being as aggressive with blitzing as Pettine was, but the Bills had almost the same amount of sacks as last season, and improved in many areas on defense.
Schopp was comparing the Bills win today as a preseason game, meaning it was meaningless, then went on to say he wished the Bills would have been annihilated today.
After hearing Schopp say he wishes the Bills would have been annihilated today, I can't take that guy seriously anymore. How can any hometown sports announcer wish that their team gets beaten badly? The guy is an embarrassment to radio and to Bills fans.
Since there's a lot of negativity either on here or listening to some of the cry baby announcers on WGR550 (such as Mike Schopp), I think it would be nice to point out some of the positives from this Bills season (in no particular order):
The Bills finished with a winning record for the first time in 10 years
Did not have a losing record at any point in the season
Went 4-0 against the NFC North
Finished 2nd in the AFC East (compared to their usual finish of 4th)
Had a 4-2 record within the division
Defense ranks 3rd in the league (up seven spots from last season)
Led the league in sacks with 54
In the past two seasons, the Bills have 111 sacks (league lead)
Defeated three current playoff teams
Look Mike Schopp, it's bad enough you're on the air and people have to listen to you b*tch and moan about the Bills, but enough is enough already! The Bills won today, regardless if it was against backups or not, so enjoy it!
I'm expecting everyone to be positive all the time, just not expecting a commentator to be as negative as Schopp was especially since the Bills won the game today.
Expect Marrone to be gone at the end of the season. Pegula will want his own people running things. The only way Marrone was staying was if the Bills made a deep playoff push. He's hoping if the Bills win on Sunday, that he'll still have a job, that's why he's playing Orton instead of Manuel.
