HurlyBurly51 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I would dispute this based on what they did in Denver with Peyton Manning. Disagree. But, good thing he's coming into a great QB situation here then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddogblitz Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) @buffalobills Five quarterbacks with connections to #Bills offensive coordinator Rick Dennison. @JaySkurski at [bN] Blitz: http://bit.ly/2iVklc6 A couple of things. I thought he had experience with Hotrod yet he is not listed on the article. Please don't bring in Case Keenum.

TheFunPolice Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 The early "favorite" in a Bills head coaching search never turns out to be the guy. Just ask coach Hue Jackson. I think he still thinks he's going to be the Bills HC. He's just waiting for the call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 What does that have to do with anything? It has to do with you and a few other clowns that think the local media impacts the scoreboard. Wawrow just said he could have gotten the info. That's a white glove to your face......now kiss the ring. thanks for the updates, john, you remain the press room beacon. Atta boy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) Thanks Mr Wawrow. I have concerns that Sean might be the new shiny object that melted their proverbial hearts. But i do not expect to find that to be true. Experience really is a great Teacher, and Pegulas hopefully are the wiser for the Rex hire. And i hope they are remaining thorough in getting the business sorted.Feeling okay to think so myself.The New Head Coach has put up an intriguing staff at least.Love the Offseason ! I honestly mean that. The last 2-4 years have been fairly dramatic in player and Coaching moves.I mean it s not like the Wannstadt years but hell, keeps me interested.Looking forward to how it all shakes out !!G0 Bills Edited January 24, 2017 by 3rdand12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HurlyBurly51 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Not all. Is that really so hard for you to believe? Kinda, it's right here, but in retrospect it does make sense. I want to be optimistic, but these are not exactly positive observations. Here's some more interesting takes on our new OC: "Q: What can you tell us about Dennison's offensive style? Buffalo led the NFL in rushing the past two years, should we assume we'll see more of that? It is your classic Mike Shanahan / Gary Kubiak zone blocking scheme. If memory serves me correctly, the Buffalo Bills ran more of a power run scheme the last few seasons. This worries me as the Broncos also were more of a power run team before Kubiak and Dennison came to town. As is evident over the last two seasons, the Broncos running game completely collapsed." "Q: Over the past two years, Dennison worked with Peyton, Osweiler, Siemian, and Lynch. Did he adjust things for each? The short answer is not really. Peyton Manning forced Rico and Gary Kubiak to adjust, but every other quarterbacks needed to fit into their scheme. One of Broncos fans biggest complaints in the last two years was a complete lack of creativity and adjustments on offense." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Rex , who wowed them with his shiny teeth and glistening tongue, yes shiny glittering impulse buy. because I agree that Rex might have been a shiny object.

I can't remember if Marrone was front runner or not though. I seem to recall Ken Whisenhunt being reported as an early favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But did they hire with emotion, or a reactionary thinking from the Rex hire turning sour for them. Have no doubt i feel quite positive about the new guy so far !

Punching Bag Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 It doesn't help when reporters claim that the head coaching search was a sham because it already settled on Anthony Lynn. So they're going to get criticism. There is a difference between reporters and gossip columnists; JW is a reporter. http://www.thedailynewsonline.com/bdn02/bills-qampa-break-down-of-bills-offensive-coordinator-rick-dennison-from-denver-20170123 Doesn't call plays as an OC and prefers to fit players into his scheme, rather than scheming to fit the talent on the roster. Full props for making Osweiler look like an NFL QB though. He also did not seem to closely examine staff under contract before replacing some which I see as a bad sign. Wasted resources; no the Pegulas are not made of money and there were some good coaches on staff released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatdrinks Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 This sounds like this will end well: "Dennison prefers to fit players into his scheme, rather than scheming to fit the talent on the roster." Truth is many Coaches and teams do that , including the Patriots. Acquiring the likes of Wes Welker, Julian Edelman , Amendola, Hogan et al. Sound like they are fitting players into their scheme? It's not all bad. You have to know the ingredients in order to make the stew. Fans don't like it because it means an adjustment period. Just keep one scheme in place for awhile and you will A . Get good at it, and B. always know what type of player you need to acquire in FA and the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said I have a problem with the way jw reported on the Bills, much less during the HC search. But would you call Vic Carucci a "gossip columnist"?

He also did not seem to closely examine staff under contract before replacing some which I see as a bad sign. Wasted resources; no the Pegulas are not made of money and there were some good coaches on staff released. I might suggest he had already been looking at the Team structure, and or he had a solid grasp on his plan when he got his shot. It looks fairly organized to me. Is Lal still on the staff? David Lee? One thing that stands out to me , and i will keep this in mind, was retaining Crossman. That will be my barometer. Truth is many Coaches and teams do that , including the Patriots.

When you are developing a Team you certainly need time to get your guys in place. But the good ones make hay on a cloudy day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2003Contenders Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Hmmm , remember when Marvin Lewis was the front runner back in 2001? I can't remember if Marrone was front runner or not though. I seem to recall Ken Whisenhunt being reported as an early favorite. Back in 2004 the favorite was Charlie Weiss. However, the word was that Donahoe did not want to wait those extra few weeks (until after the Super Bowl) to officially hire him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
