Jason La Canfora: Bills have been granted permission to interview Jags coordinator

[Skooby]

Seems stupid until you realize the Jags had the #4 defense in 2011.

Isn't that Mel Tucker? I'm not sure but he is a big time name and is big time highly thought of in the NFL.

...And, in 2012, the Jags defense gave up 27.8 points per game... The Bills gave up 27.2 PPG.

Stats can usually be manipulated to say what the person presenting them wants them to say...

When's the last time the Bills were out of the bottom 5 on defense in the NFL ?

I'm not really going to hate on him for that issue. Blaine Gabbert and Chad Henne were QBing the offense and Rashard Jennings was the TB with no WR play early in the year so his defense had to of been on the field a ton. The difference between the two is at least Buffalo moved the ball some and took time off the clock.

Well when ur O sucks so bad that they are only on the field about 10 minutes a game that leaves the D on the field 50 minutes a D will get tired and let up points which will effect how a D is ranked

[RedEyE]

Tucker ran a 3-4 in Cleveland but runs 4-3 in Jacksonville.

That could give us an idea of what the Bills plan on doing on D.
