thebandit27 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 How'd that turn out (sips beer) They didn't make the playoffs That doesn't change the fact that being 5-5 with a relatively weak slate of games on deck, and one game out of the last playoff spot doesn't amount to failure at that point I worry about folks that don't understand the difference (Sips aged rum) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
What a Tuel Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 (edited) Rex, but really the PEGS for a bad hire............had a top four D, but HE (rex) was smarter....oh yeh.....so the Pegs give him another year to save face.....but, I am not expecting much, other than hot air from Rex. Mario was miss used in Rex 3x4. but he has Made $76 mil in the last four years, and has the stones to call out REX.....he will be gone, and get his double digit sacks elsewhere in the NFL next season. Teams will be jumping over each other to sign Mario. Maybe he was misused, but stones to call Rex out are one thing, not trying after the midpoint in the season while we are in playoff contention is quite another. Mario will perform well on another team sure, but it isn't like he was performing on this team anyway.

K-9 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Stones to call out Rex? LMAO. That took no stones at all. What would have taken stones was for Mario to have played balls out the entire season in spite of being unhappy about the scheme and what he was asked to do in it. If for no other reason than he owed it to his teammates. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Crossman this year, and Thurmon next year. Then Rex in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Slightly off-topic, but it does seem like lots of folks are eager to pile on these days. But you can't hold a candle to the Hoodie. Look what he did to poor Ian Rapoport! The Pats*** beat him 2009 to 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I'm going to say Terry Pegula. Because he let Kim Pegula pick the coach (I believe), and picking a coach who everyone knew would completely change a highly successful defense was irresponsible. Rex Ryan ruined this team. He wouldn't have been able to do that, had he not been hired in the first place. I hear it's what you believe, but why do you believe it? I think Rex charmed everyone, especially Russ Brandon who eventually sold the Pegulas. I even think he turned Whaley, who ought to have known better.

I think the guy is going to be a fantastic GM and he's done a lot of great things. I'm not sure if we'll ever really know how it went down, but I have a difficult time believing that Whaley was on board with Rex coming in. Whaley built that defense and he's smart enough to know that bringing in Rex would very likely destroy what he built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 (edited) 2015- Danny Crossman 2016- Dennis Thurman 2017- Rex Ryan Imo Leroi, you may be right here, but when did you turn from "reborn" to this prediction? Or, more clearly, what were the events after the hire of Rex that turned you? Perhaps I'm blinded by my adoration for Whaley. I think the guy is going to be a fantastic GM and he's done a lot of great things.

Whaley built that defense and he's smart enough to know that bringing in Rex would very likely destroy what he built. You're correct, Whaley should have seen that, but I think it very likely that Rex laid on the "I'm a football guy, not a scheme guy" plausibly and thick with examples and possibly with empathy for any quandries Whaley faced trying to stock the cupboard for Marrone, and Whaley was persuaded. I think everybody is guilty of falling for Rex. Why blame the woman? "fool me once....:" Edited January 2, 2016 by Hopeful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not turned on anything, it seems as if your grasping for support. Imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
