fridge Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Another coaching staff that thinks the best solution on 4th and inches is to bring out your offense and try and get the defense to take an undisciplined encroachment. I'm sorry, but this is the least imaginative, most predictable thing a coach can do. Once an extra 5 seconds goes by than a normal snap, the whole stadium knows its not going to be snapped. Unless you do a total fake-out and actually hike the ball with a second remaining on the game clock, just remove this crap altogether. Serves them right that they got false start on that play, too.

ddaryl Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) After the Patriots and Giants debacles I'm convinced we are merely pretenders, yet again, and we will not be going to the playoffs for a 16th year. I have no explanation for this franchise but my Sundays are much free-er the rest of this football season. I'll watch them but I won't go out of my way if there are better things I can be doing. I lost all faith again. Hopefully the light switch comes on and the 2nd half of the season will be salvageable Edited October 5, 2015 by ddaryl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best Player Available Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Your right and Rex wont get 3 years. Not even close. If we were in rebuild then maybe, but no way, not with this roster. His press conference yesterday was grose. The team has zero focus and discipline-the hallmark of a Rex Ryan team. Im on your side. I HATED the hire have to wonder in anyone in Pegulas inner circle ever questioned giving Ryan a 5 year fully guaranteed contract. despite coming to Buffalo with a sub .500 winning record, and his bombastic persona. I'll say this apparently the bigmouth can sell his promises, unless he changes his philosophy he will fail on his " last NFL team" I hated his big trap in new jersey, because he wasn't the Bills coach. Now that he is he's starting to remind me of a closer on a car purchase at a dealership Full of crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan_34 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 They probably can only afford three more losses on the year and still expect a post season. Since the jets are looking tough, the pats, Chiefs, Dallas and bengals are are still out there, they really couldn't afford dropping one to the Giants. My take on the team is they are tracking toward 9-7 and another playoff miss.6-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pneumonic Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Rex is a fabulous salesman whose infectious personality has allowed him to sell his crap to the media, to his players, to the fans of the team he coaches and to the owner who signs his paycheck. He's been the ultimate salesman for years and his charade continues here in Buffalo. Get used to it because "he is who he is" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunday: Fire everyone and Gilmore sucks Monday: Fire everyone and Rex sucks Tuesday: Fire everyone and bash Roman Wednesday: I don't think we can beat Tenn. Thursday: This is a very winnable game Friday: I think we turn it around and go on a run Saturday: Predictions Bills 50 Titans -2 It's a long season. We're 2-1 in the AFC. We weren't going to run the table after Miami and I'll take the loss against an NFC opponent. Edited October 5, 2015 by It's in My Blood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Radley Boston Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 All show, no go. Whatever you want to call it, but that sums up Ryan so far as a head coach in the NFL. All his false bravado bull **** with the Jets, and proclaiming that the Bills would go to the playoffs earlier this season and he has yet to back any of it up on the field. The Bills are 2-2, not 0-4 so no reason to string him up just yet. And it is all new coaches, new system, blah blah blah ... you know the same excuses as every season it seems. But the facts are that they beat 2 bad teams and lost badly to a good team and a mediocre team due to bad play and worse coaching. If the Bills are to make the playoffs this season, and they certainly still could, Ryan needs to get his head out of his ass, get his team under control, and start coaching this team instead of making cute Tops and Dunn Tire commercials. Playoffs could happen. Rex teams are always on the verge of either sadness or euphoria. Rex likes the drama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dulles Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 I though this was a big opportunity for Woods today to show why he deserves more targets. Jayron Hosley Island: population Robert Woods. That's there's a good post. Strong opinion; witty commentary. I like it. Unfortunately, I don't like what it describes, but I have to agree. I didn't even know "Jayron Hosley's" name until you mentioned it. It must be a very peaceful, uneventful place to visit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maury Ballstein Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Jets fans went through the exact same BS. Rex is all hat and no cowboy. Except for the time Sanchez sent the pats home and went to the title game. Nice omission. Guess the guy whining about losing Roman can settle down now. Our all star coaches week to week rollercoaster continues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manther Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Can't disagree with you. As I mentioned in another thread I was initially all for the Rex Ryan hire but after the New England debacle I began to second guess it and after this game I'm doing the same thing. No discipline and our defense hasn't been close to the dominant defense it was last year..... people killed Marrone all offseason and even during the season last year, but at this point I'd take him over Rex. Imo take Marrone is either an exaggeration or just dumb! Coaching is the problem. 17 penalties? 15 yarder, backed up with another 15 yarder, with Rex on the field being hauled off by an assistant? This **** is top down. Our head coach is a top 5 defensive co-ordinator. He's a bottom 10 head coach. Agree on the top down for discipline and penalties.I couldn't agree more! Rex thinks that he has to reinvent the wheel! Just line up and play football, we got the better athletes than most teams. Man, this guy sure is full of himself!Agreed. Don't over coach. An example, would be Seattle giving away the Championship to the Pats ** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All_Pro_Bills Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 I'm not ready to throw in the towel on Ryan just yet, its only 4 games, but there are a lot of red flags and we all get the look and feel of something familiar. We've been here before. The fundamental problem I see in the two losses is that Belichik and Coughlin did nothing unusual or unexpected on either offense or defense. And yet this Bills team seemed totally unprepared. How is this possible? And what coach tolerates all this undisciplined play? And then more or less praises them in the post game press conference. It's almost like Ryan lives in some alternative reality completely different that what everyone else is experiencing. I see a defense playing completely out of control, undisciplined, stupid football giving up way too many yards and points to be considered 'great' and he sees a lot of heart and determination. On the defensive side of the ball this team is an overhyped mess. A top defense in the mind of their head coach and some of the players. Some of the players know this, some might deny it, others might believe their own BS still. But there's a major problem here. The talent is there, the smarts are lacking and it seems to start with the head coach and trickle down from there. The vets on the field, Kyle and Mario Williams, and maybe Corey Graham need to step up and settle the hot-heads down. Against both New England and New York the offense scored in the 4th to make it a one score game and both times the defense immediately just rolled over on the next drive and gave up an easy score in just a few plays. Great defenses make those stops even against great offenses. Ryan needs to spend less time shooting his mouth off and instead do some critical evaluation of himself and his team then make the necessary changes to get things right. Looking to next week against the Titans you'd expect a 'W' but who knows which team will show up. The one totally prepared to defeat a lesser opponent or the one playing like a bunch of idiots led by a buffoon head coach who can't keep his mouth shut?

Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 (edited) Looks like another year of pretending vs. contending with this group. Offensively, I don't understand how Roman can go from the play designs of a week ago to seemingly having little clue this afternoon. I'm sure the tape review will show how much we missed Sammy and Shady in the passing game and I can cut him some slack for that, but that two minute offense to end the first half was beyond comprehension. NOBODY on the field or sideline had any idea of what they wanted to do and that worries me greatly moving forward. What were they doing on the sideline while the defense was on the field before getting the ball back? No excuse for that display of two minute offense. None. Defensively, we once again lost our composure at critical times and it worries me that Rex seemed unperturbed with it in his presser. I can only hope he supported them publicly but will rip them all a new one in the film room. Brady did indeed provide a blue print and good QBs like Manning can execute the kind of offense that neutralizes our pass rush and forces our LBs to cover. I won't say anything about the atrocious tackling all day, other than when your team scores a momentum changing TD to get within six, your defense needs to come up big with a stop if it wants to call itself a good defense. Bradham's miss will keep him in my doghouse for a long time. Embarrassing to say the least. We are NOT a great defense and somebody on that unit needs to stand up and scream that at the top of his lungs in that lockerroom. I think they've been reading their clippings and enjoy being coddled by Ryan. Well Rex, this defense has HUGE problems when facing anything other than a poor team with average QBing. Good teams with average QBs can beat us when we play like today. Good teams with good QBs will embarrass us if we can't fix these problems. Bottom line is, I don't think the Giants beat us as much as we beat ourselves. 99% of the time, that's a coaching issue and our staff schit the bed big time today. Amateur hour indeed. GO BILLS!!! I agree with you that we beat ourselves. Doesn't Coughlin also agree with you "the Bills will beat themselves with penalties?" I also agree that so far, Rex's D has not lived up to expectations. Didn't he come into the year saying something like "#4 in the league is kind of disappointing, really?" (#4 was on points against) We're number 16 so far, Rex, so that's beyond disappointing to me. I, too, thought the tackling was soft. Maybe Rex needs to bring Incognito into his office for a "how did you do it?" chat. Incognito successfully went from Martz screaming on the sideline "What the F*@# is wrong with that F*@#?" to a guy who could have his helmet ripped off and walk away from it with the Dolphins. He must know something about how to change to play tough and play physical, but step back from the line of drawing a personal foul. As I mentioned in another thread I was initially all for the Rex Ryan hire but after the New England debacle I began to second guess it and after this game I'm doing the same thing. No discipline and our defense hasn't been close to the dominant defense it was last year..... people killed Marrone all offseason and even during the season last year, but at this point I'd take him over Rex. You got the wrong coach, IMO, Law-man. Schwartz was the guy responsible for what we had last year, which was a tough, physical, run-stingy D that brought consistent pressure with limited blitzes. Roman is an upgrade on Marrone on the offensive side, and bringing back Marrone without an all-star DC would not be making us smile. Unless I'm in space, though, we have the same ST coach so WTF's up with the lack of discipline there? Edited October 6, 2015 by Hopeful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
