I thought Rex was a clown in NJ but gave him the benefit of the doubt that he learned from his first HC stint, had some success, knew the division, and I still believe Idzik stripped him of talent with the Jets. I supported him until about halfway through this year when it appeared to me he was mailing it in and shirking accountability. I strongly dislike how he decided to go out with this interview. Classless and shrugging his shoulders.

 

My feelings on Rex pretty much followed the exact same pattern. Agree with every word of your post.

Typical rich kid spoiled brat mentality. When he's actually held accountable- its everyone else's fault and screw them.

 

Poor Rex, an unfortunate victim of wrongful employment due to nepotism. No business being an NFL head coach.

 

Without his daddy's name he'd be some sort of mid level sales manager having to work for a living instead of an independently wealthy walking talking sound byte...

Nothing is going to work. Wait until Brady retires in 5-6 years and then give it a run.

 

Ralph knew what he was doing. Pay the least amount possible for the coaching staff knowing in advance it wasn't going to work out.

$25M for two seasons of head coaching is a good deal for Pegula how?

conventional wisdom suggests you wait it out and give rr time to build it. problem was, the issues that plagued him in ny continued to plague him in year two in wny. big mouth, big promises, and a consistently incomplete package on the field. he brought his brother in to help coach and it seemed at times to go from bad to worse.

 

in that sense, I respect the Pegula's decision to eat the remaining contract and rip the band aid off. when I read this story--and seeing how rr really looks at the world, I wonder what cracks there were in the façade behind the scenes.

 

for what it's worth, had he stayed, I'd have supported him. when he left, I wished him well. when I read this, I thought "what a small-minded, petty and bitter man.".

 

now I'm going to get a g-d snack.

I like how it talks about 'if he has a chance, a real chance he'll be back'. So basically he wants a super bowl team handed to him. I liked and supported him when he was here but man, f him now.

If he hadn't destroyed a great defense with a gimmick scheme, he may have had that.

Not sure why Rex feels like he got a bad deal? He was a self-proclaimed defensive guru that took a good defense and made it bad. He made some indefensible in game decisions (punting in OT vs. Miami) and couldn't get the right packages (or even right number of guys) on the field. I'm not sure where he thinks the blame for all of that should fall?

Rex never had the locker room behind him. He probably blames them because he was so used to having them in NY. The difference was, Rex never bothered to win them over. It's still his fault, but I bet that's his delusion. That he was never fully supported as HC.

When Rex came into Buffalo, it seemed that he clearly understood the Bills fan base. We've endured 17 years without a playoff game and yet don't walk away from out team. We're behind our coach and our players no matter what, almost to a fault. He is the one that dismantled the defense. Let's fire the DC of the 2nd best defense in the NFL so that he can ultimately hand the job to his brother. Ryan turned a $95 million pass rushing defensive tackle into a run stuffing nose tackle. As for the quarterback, Orton didn't quit, he retired. Irrelevant anyway, as Taylor is better than him. I didn't care about any of these changes, until his last statement. "He'll root for the Jets". I have to wonder what he has to gain by saying thisw. That final statement is pretty much giving Bills fans the middle finger. It makes him no better than "cash out" Marrone. It's crystal clear that he never understood this team or the fans at all. Good riddance.

That, as well as injuries and not having those lost picks to use from the Watkins trade.

All happened because he didn't feel wanted :(
