Whether it's tomorrow or at the end of the season, the Buffalo Bills should fire Rex Ryan. Here's why: http://trib.al/2SMnhbI

 

@RyanTalbotBills

A lot for Bills fans to be angry about following loss, so Mike Gillislee only getting two carries (on meaningless drive) may fly under radar

 

Gillislee should have had the bulk of the carries today the field conditions made his style the better choice over shady's

Here's my column on #Bills loss to Steelers. I know I'm alone, but I still say Rex shouldn't be fired, even...

CBS Sports NFL Week 14 grades: Le'Veon Bell, Steelers run all over Bills for 'B'

It's almost fitting that it was snowing in Buffalo on Sunday because Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell looked like he was sledding downhill during a record-setting performance in Pittsburgh's 27-20 win over the Bills.

With the Steelers passing game on ice, Pittsburgh was able to survive in Buffalo thanks to Bell, who rushed for a franchise-record 236 yards and three touchdowns. Bell became the first player this year not named Jay Ajayi to hit the 200-yard mark. Bell's total broke Willie Parker's Steelers' record of 223 yards, which had stood since December 2006.

 

 

Pittsburgh 27-20 over Buffalo

 

PIT.png Steelers: B

Although we gave Le'Veon Bell all the credit above, we should also give some credit for this win to a Steelers defense that seems to be peaking at the right time. Pittsburgh's defense seemed to harness the power of the Steel Curtain as they sacked Tyrod Taylor five times and held the Bills' top-ranked run game to just 67 yards.

BUF.pngBills: C-

If the Bills are trying to get Rex Ryan fired, then they did a good job of that against the Steelers. Just hours after CBS Sports NFL Insider Jason La Canfora reported that Ryan could be canned as soon as this week, the Bills came out and laid an egg. If Ryan's specialty is defense, then he might want to think about picking up a new specialty after watching the Bills get trampled for 240 yards on the ground. On offense, the Bills had less than zero yards (-1) after the first quarter. The only reason this game wasn't a blowout is because the Bills scored two touchdowns in the final 7:30 of the game.

@TBNSports

Rex's 'D' gets its butt kicked; Tyrod should not see field again for #Bills. @JaySkurski's Hot Read at [bN] Blitz: http://bit.ly/2gPiOiz

From Skurski's article: " Playing Taylor the rest of the way exposes him to the risk of injury. If that happens, his contract option for next year is guaranteed."

 

Wow - did not realize that. That is very interesting indeed.

Yeah, this is quite interesting. Need more info on this option and what level of injury or amount of games missed triggers it.
