Playoffs? Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I have zero faith and hope in anything that Rex says. This guy is a salesman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodeMonkey Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Rex says... "We’re going to do things much differently next year, and we’re going to be better because of it. In a way, I tried to merge a couple of things, you know, two systems and things like that. And quite honestly, it didn’t work, so we’re going to be all in, we’re going to play Buffalo Bill defense, and we’re not going to be fun to play." What does Rex exactly mean and what are the ramifications? It means he hasn't learned to stop running his mouth. Winner winner chicken dinner!

Gray Beard Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 You all have this wrong. The big changewas hiring his brother as the Asst. HC/defense., i.e. uber-DC. Hip hip hurray. Bills have now officially jumped the shark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 It means that Rex isn't going to try to make guys like Bradham and Mario work in his scheme. It means we'll see a lot of 30 front and some type of investment at safety. Why do you say that? I don't have a reason to believe one way or the other........seemed he was playing more 4 man DL late and had talked about wanting to use more 4-3 but couldn't because of the loss of Kyle Williams.

Don't want to speak for los bandito, but I think he was referring to Rex saying yesterday on the radio that he was going back to his own defense rather than the hybrid he tried to play this year. Which brings me to a question I'd like to ask you. If we were to sign, say, Harrison of the Jets to play nose, do you think Marcel and Kyle could play 3-4 DEs in Rex's system well?

BuffaloBill Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Stop bitching, people. We're in the news in January. That never happens. Except when our fans set themselves on fire after consuming copious quantities of alcohol... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok thanks I missed him saying that. I know Dareus can play DE....he was a great 3-4 DE at Alabama........but not Kyle Williams. KW is a stubby penetrator.......when he's looked bad in his career it's when he is being asked to play with two gap responsibility. If Rex is going to play "his" D then he will have to compromise again to make it work with KW as a 3 down DE. Harrison is a very good player but he's going to get a long term contract. I am interested to see what is happening with Haloti Ngata. He can play both NT and DE in Rex D. Ngata would bring championship experience/leadership and he may be a reasonably priced vet who could come in on a short contract and not be a scheme specific cut in 2017 if Rex gets himself fired next year. I think Kyle is still a very good player but as bad of a fit as anyone on this D for Rex scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Kyle is still a very good player but as bad of a fit as anyone on this D for Rex scheme. Agreed that Kyle has no place in a true 30 front. Bad fit for a great player I'm fine with a guy like Knighton or Mebane at nose as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dayman Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 To the extent it means anything it means he's going to fire some people pretty soon and bring in guys he can brainwash (for better or worse) to play Rex ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Big Cat Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I have zero faith and hope in anything that Rex says. This guy is a salesman. Spin it however you like, but your premise is sound. If Rex says it into a microphone, there's even probability he's lying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
