Bangarang Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) Love the hire. For the people saying we're going back to the 3-4, don't you realize we already ran Rex's defense 2 years ago with Pettine? We're just getting the master of it now. To top it off, we're getting the offensive mind in Roman to fix the offense. Edited January 12, 2015 by Bangarang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDBillzFan Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 After a day of reflection on the hire, it dawned on me that I am old enough to remember when Jerry Sullivan wrote an article screaming how the Pegula's were in over their head and OBD was a three-ring circus. It seems like only last week, no? What? Oh. Nevermind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Yup. But the defense they ran this year, with Schwartz was even better. It could also be a matter of our players maturing and getting better. We added Spikes, Preston Brown and guys like Bradham and Searcy seemed to have emerged as solid players.

scotty0424 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 This is what the Bills have been missing - a clown act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what the Bills have been missing - a clown act. Apparently, according to most here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 One thing about Rex, he went to those two Championship games with Mark Sanchez who was TERRIBLE. It wasn't like Sanchez was good and then he regressed a huge amount. He was never really good, he could just throw a really nice ball every few throws so he was a tease, and would have a couple good stat games, the same way he is on Philly. Or Geno is. He was always careless with the ball, and he was never good. But Rex's teams advanced with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papazoid Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 how many of Rex's former players are saying nice things about him ? how many of Marrone's former players are saying nice things about him ?? upgrade !!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taterthegator Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Highest quality coach since Marv Levy. We are getting a guy who knows the AFC East, has competed in it, and perhaps Marrone was the guy who was holding the place for the guy. I like the choice, I am excited about next fall and cannot wait to see Rex drawing up schemes for the Patriots game with the superior D he inherits. For all of the naysayers, it seems like bellyaching is part of what it means to be a Bills fan for some of you and it sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProcessAccepted Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Yea. A future where Rex does really good again for two years after inheriting a stacked team (defensively at least), and then finishes out the last three years of his contract with losing records. Can you tell me who wins the Superbowl this year as I could use the extra cash? Seriously though, he's our coach now, lets get behind him and give the guy a chance. I'd take 2 AFC Championship years right now, it would make for a nice change. The new ownership is demonstrating one thing, the Bills are finally willing to spend money. If they can go get us a QB and help on the line Rex will have a real opportunity. This group has been together for less than 4 months. Give them a chance, they are making real moves.

Canadian Bills Fan Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 What I love about Rex is looking at the 2009 and 2010 roster when they made the AFC Championship, besides LT in 2010, they really didn’t have any big name running back. He made it work without any star RB’s. CBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Because they had the #1 run game and #1 defense. Name all of the other teams with top run games and #1 defense that got to two straight Championship games with terrible QBing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
