    Hackett finally getting the respect he deserves.....

    This week finally opened the flood gates on articles pointing the finger at the biggest issue on this team...offensive coordinator.

    Even Marrone started to roll Hackett this week.

    You have talent at RB and WR positions and now you have a guy with 7 million in guaranteed money asking to be traded who might not even play again this weekend.

    No way Hackett makes it past this season.

      What did Marrone say?

        it's good to be from a strong football family. usually get a longer leash and multiple tries to get it right.

          Gil has made several good points about the running game over the last couple of weeks. Hackett seems to be hot and cold on play design for the passing game (some are great, some are 'meh') but it really appears he struggles with the run.

            Remember when they designed this offense this year it was to help out EJ because of his limitations.And they compounded it by signing Orton so late in the preseason.I believe Marrone wanted to run an up tempo offense but found out that EJ wasn't ready for it.I hope that as Orton gets more comfortable and with the bye coming that you will see some changes following the bye.Thats my hope anyways.So we will see what happens.If they don't fix the O-Line it won't matter much anyhow.

              Does Colorado State have a HC opening? Maybe they can rescue us from a ****ty OC again.

                I think that this team is overly fixated on passing the ball. They haven't run nearly enough with Orton under center. It's like they're trying to prove something now that Orton is starting instead of playing to our strengths.

It's a protection mechanism.

                Of course, the criticisms are obviously from someone who has no understanding of the team concept or what it takes to excel at athletics.

                The true "realist" understands that they have no control of what happens on the field or behind the closed doors at One Bills' Drive, so they do the prudent thing for a spectator. They enjoy the games on Sunday with family and friends, cheer for their team and realize that it's just entertainment.

                "We are committed. I want you to believe me when I say that," Whaley said of building around the second-year quarterback, per The Buffalo News. "I always tell you guys that I'll never say never because I don't want to paint myself in a corner, but when I do say something, I do it and I mean it and I try to fulfill it."

                "We believe the addition of Sammy is going to be instant impact, not only to our quarterback, but to what our offensive coordinator can come up with game-plan wise and how defenses attack us," Whaley said.

                Whaley on EJ Manuel: "We think we got a gem in this guy." (2:30)

                  Are we certain he's the son of Paul Hackett? I'm thinking he better represents the loins of Buddy Hackett.

                  Honestly the guy didn't even have enough experience that justified moving from Syracuse into the big league. He ****ed up a decent offense of talent to include the franchise QB he took under his wing last season.

                    Well, I think the failure of Hackett can be placed on Marrone.

                    Marrone did a great job hiring DC's but Hackett sucks.

                    Many more qualified, better OC's were available for Marrone to hire.

                      I really liked Chan's offense. Obviously he would have been a better OC than an HC. My only concern with Chan is the selections he would make for supporting staff. History shows his judgement is way off when it counts.

                        Meh, he's part of a trifecta of problems and maybe a fearsome foursome depending on what we do Sunday.

                        Those problems are:

                        1) Two good backup QBs (EJ and Kyle) but no legitimate starter who can manage a game successfully so as not to lose or miracle his ass out a big deficit to enable his team to win.
                        2) Can't Hackett, he just can't and does not properly utilize his team
                        3) A porous OL

                        and a possible fourth: big names on D who give up if the going gets too tough. No wait, that is a real fourth so

                        edit:

                        4) big names on D who give up if the going gets too tough.

                        5) A mentality that still seeks way to quickly to give up the ghost.

                          Well.....

                          So was the team's usage of its two most explosive offensive weapons in running back C.J. Spiller and receiver Sammy Watkins. Twice during Monday's news conference, Marrone made reference to the coaching staff needing to do a better job with those two players.
                          Hey, it starts with us. I wouldn't sit here and say it's all on him. We've got to do a better job, too, as coaches of finding a way to get him the ball in space."
                          Best if you read the whole article : http://bills.buffalonews.com/2014/10...hing-blunders/

                          I think Marrone lives and dies with Hackett no matter what. He's ceded control of his defense to Schwartz, is not a hands on game management overlord, and can't give his offense away or he'll be doing nothing but twirling in his chair every day until he looks aggravated on game days.

                            all our run plays look the same... i don't have a problem with the system, but the calling has been crap. very predictable calls. At this point in the season and watching as fan, i can generally call run or pass and be way too accurate.

                              He's way too predictable and way to inexperienced to be at this level.
