Formerly Allan in MD Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 The expectations are that the Bills will have a winning organization and team. For so many years we've not had both, which is what it takes to be continually successful. We have a lot of talented players and, I believe, a good GM. But Ryan has not been a winner in 5 years. His teams, including this one, have little in the way of a game plan, ability to take advantage of strengths (such as last years defense, which was the mirror or the previous seasons exceptional one), and no discipline (don't continually shake your head Rex over the penalties; do something). Most teams, based on that record, would not hire him (no matter how tough, impressive, and being a "players coach" he appears to be during the interview). Pegula has fired Sabres coaches with more success. Hopefully, he'll figure out sooner rather than later that Ryan is incapable of winning. A lot of posters on this board defend him. But compare him to the likes of truly successful coaches, such as Belichek, who've not always had sterling personnel but still know what it takes to win. Personally, I'm totally tired of having expectations, hearing about our improvement, and being totally disillusioned. We should have won today!

Not a Schopp fan at all, but he was right on the post-game show. Whaley paid a king's ransom for Sammy and Clay, yet Roman/Ryan/TT either use them poorly or like today, not at all. We continue to carry two kickers, neither of whom can kick worth a damn, and our top paid player is out 4 games for smoking weed. I could go on, but we are a tire fire.

djp14150 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Looking at the schedule I say... Likely losses...seattle, a game with new england, and cincinati Close games that can be won...baltimore, pittsburgh, arizona, oakland I still think they can go 10-6. 4-2 division, 3-1 against nfc, 3-3 against afc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOKBILLS Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Well Tyrod most assuredly did not deliver in any way. Gonna be a loong season that hopefully ends with us getting a real NFL QB in the next draft. Amen... It may have just been week #1...But today this team looked like a legit contender for #1 overall... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloFan68 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I said during preseason that we would go 3-1 & I'm standing by it. Here comes 3 victories! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloFan68 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 4-12 would definitely get the Ryans fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
