May Day 10 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 (edited) The GM nerfed that roster and ate a ton of dead money in the last 2 year's of Rex's tenure there. It was needed since that team was old, and overpaid, and not very talented. He got fired, but he totally set up the new coach/GM for success when you have a ton of money to use to fill some of the holes. 2015 offseason saw them bring in Marshall via trade, Revis, Cro, skrine, gilchrist, and carpenter. Thats a massive secondary upgrade, as well as bringing in a solid guard, and a #1 receiver (who's not without his issues, but he's still solid). The Bills were an "up and coming" team who just won 9 games and added a lot of "talent". They are going backwards. I am all for continuity, but the house is rotted and the foundation is cracked. It doesnt mean we need to live there hoping it magically gets better. I do not want to see Rex fired and swapped with a new coach. I would like to see more structural fixes. Maybe they turn it around and look good getting close to .500. Then I could see giving it another shot. As of now though it is a tire fire.

flutie5 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Frank Reich as the HC and Jim Schwartz as the DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Frank Reich as the HC and Jim Schwartz as the DC Can't interview Schwartz for a lateral move when he's under contract. You can only interview both for HC spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Frank Reich as the HC and Jim Schwartz as the DC Two questions: What has Reich shown to indicate he's ready to take on an NFL HC job? Why do people believe that Schwartz would leave the Eagles for Buffalo in a lateral move? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGun12TD Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 I would love Josh McDaniel or Wade Phillips! I think this time around they will both be better as an HC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 i didn't even click on the "worst team in the league" thread because I was watching the Jags try to play football at the time so I knew it wasn't true I haven't put on a browns game. But Cody Kessler and Charlie Whitehurst... sounds pretty exciting to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herb62 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 I wonder what would have happened if Marone had stayed on with Schwartz? Couldn't have been much worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r00tabaga Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Frank Reich. Not only is he a former Bill but his offense looked impressive last night. He also is apparently really good at bringing along young QBs which it appears we might have next year. I'm not sure if he interviewed for the job two years ago but he has the eagles offense looking really good...oh yeah and guess who the eagles DC is, Schwartz. Thoughts? There are already two threads on this. Many have already mentioned him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCbillsfan Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Rex is likely to get fired sometime this year. Even non Bills fans are talking about it. So, it's not too early to talk about possible candidates. Reich is a possibility but the Bills need someone with more experience imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWATeam Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 I wonder if Tasker would be interested? He seems pretty sharp on the broadcasts. Maybe we could make him HC/GM like Belichick to sweeten the deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what would have happened if they just kept Gailey and let Fitzpatrick play out his contract. But yes, to your point, it definitely would have been better.
