Fire everyone.

Remember last week when I kept harping about the ****ing depth on D? Where is it? Our DL is hot garbage right now, too many injuries and nothing on the bench. Our LBs? AJ Tarpley....lol, no depth. Time for a house cleaning, sick of watching this ****.

If I'm running this team, I fire Rex Ryan at the end of the season and do everything I can to lure Mark D'Antonio from Michigan State. Then I draft Connor Cook- I move up if I have to- and have him compete with Tyrod in training camp.

It didn't.
Injuries, penalties, poor QB, no pass rush, has killed this team.Poor QB??? The offense did more then enough to win this game.......the defense **** the bed!

The hire sold tickets.

That's about it.

Let's not bash Tyrod, this game is a perfect example of stats. lying. This thread is about Rex.

The team reflects its head coach.
Rex isn't too smart.
He certainly isn't a defensive genius.

The problem is the team is really stupid.
Jerry Hughes is world class stupid.
I'd be pleased if parted ways with Rex at the end, because stupid is really hard to fix.

KC had two OL out and we got no pressure at all, half our DL was out of the game anyway, but man, just awful.

Hes making it easier to draft a top QB

That makes some sense.

WRT Ryan, as I said when we hired him. Rex has only been an elite D coach when he had a Hall of Fame talent in the secondary to cover for his wild playcalling. You can get away with running your linebackers all over the place and out of position when you have a Revis or Reed picking up the scraps behind them. But as good as Darby and Gilmore have played, they aren't nearly to that level. Under Schwartz, we dropped a ton of guys, which gave our players some freedom to jump underneath routes and get turnovers. With rex, they are out on islands so they have to stay deep, so unless the pass rush gets there, the defense looks really, really bad.

The fact that his team plays like a pack of undisciplined idiots only turns the refs against us more, compounding the problem.

Rex has ruined a great defense. Rex's lack of discipline has us losing almost 1000 yards because of penalties....equal to one third of our offense. Rex has ruined our special teams who suck in their irrelevance. Rex has wasted the talent if Sammy Watkins (the first half of today's game withstanding). Rex has turned underachieving while having a big ****ing mouth to an art form.

Rex has ensured we miss the playoffs for the 16th year with no prospects of ever being competitive.

The least he could do is **** up things correctly, and lose enough games that we can draft a real franchise QB.

Pegula should have taken my advice last year and fired the whole front office and hired a real football guy to be GM and build the team from scratch. Now all we have is a mumble jumbo of ****....a big stinking pile of ****!!!

Rex needs to be fired. Now. We don't need the rest of the season to see that its not going to work out. Why waste another 2 years of crappy coaching when we have a roster built to win.

Any coach that can take a top 5 D, add a better player to it and make it average doesn't deserve to ever coach in this league again

We are stuck with him one more season at the very least. Talk about depressing.

When a color commentator says "That's just bad coaching," in the fraternity of coaches and media of the NFL world, you pretty much have an idea of how good your guy is.

Better press conference entertainment.

If you mean on the field though, I got nada.

Can we get Rex to jump out of a plane again but not give him a parachute this time?

The truth is that many from the Buffalo area are just happy for Buffalo to be relevant again.

Odd thing is I thought we became pretty relevant again with a Schwartz defense climbing all over QB's without blitzing.

Buffalo is not relevant. People are so deprived any sniff of relevance gets them excited. Sad. Rex is not a good coach.

I thought of him as a foot-fondling ass-clown when he was coach of the Jets. I thought his hiring was a dumb mistake. The team, particularly the defense, took a step back from where Marrone had built them.

But the Bills ALWAYS stick with their mistakes, whether players or management, for at least 3 years. Dunno if it's cheapness, stubbornness, or a combination thereof, but it seems to be the established pattern. So I predict we'll see him on the sidelines at least 2 more years. I wished it were otherwise.

Pegula needs to suck it up and take a huge step away from Ralph Wilson with swiftness and immediacy. Have to respect his effort to make the transition to this point. Time to make it permanent.

We were, but promoting Schwartz to the HC would not have sold an additional 10,000 season tickets like hiring Rex did.

Mace

Winning would have took care of that with Schwartz (under contract) and an offensive guy to do the remodeling on the weak side of the ball. Kind of funny we remodeled the weakness adequately and mucked up the strength. Figure the available Roman as OC, Schwartz as DC, and an actually proficient manager head guy as HC.

Mace

He's an idiot. It didn't really add anything to the team but I thought I'd mention it, because atm I'm thinking he's an idiot and it talks about Rex Ryan.

Why? He put this talented roster together and Rex took a big **** on it.

Rex and his coaching staff are stupid when it comes to game management. Might as well have a camel on the sidelines, including Roman, the 2nd dumbest one.

Pegula needs to suck it up and take a huge step away from Ralph Wilson with swiftness and immediacy.

Unfortunately I doubt we'll see that because as with the Sabres, Pegula has left too much of the senior management, and culture, intact at One Bills Drive. The same senior management and culture that has set records for missing the playoffs in the era of salary parity.

Rex is a loser of a coach whose big mouth made him a rich man. I don't think I've had less respect for a Bills coach, and that's saying something.

I'm wondering now if Brandon didn't have a big influence in the hire of Rex. Look at ticket sales. Brandons smart when it comes to fooling people. gonna have to give Rex another year oe at least start next year before letting Roman taking over.

It would not surprise me if Brandon had quite a bit of input in the old foot-fondler's hire. The guy's fingerprints are all over the Bills failures of the last 7 or 8 years, and yet he is held as blameless as a newborn babe ("but he's just a marketer").

Pegula made a big mistake retaining Darcy Regier. He made another similar mistake by retaining Russ Brandon.

Sorry, I don't like roman as head coach or OC. His game plans suck. Who else would ignore Watkins for entire halves of football. I think he's using Hackett's playbook. God, him and Ryan are terrible coaches.

No... Well maybe... His higher pedigree may have pushed the org to spend more and get better talent than they would have with a no-namer.

The best outcome was that his pedigree and experience in the post season would lead the team to be a consistent, high producing squad that believes they are a playoff team and that shows it each and every week.

Instead we got the Rex Ryan teams that have no discipline, a poor scheme, and an inability to fix it.

The best outcome (since Rex is here to stay) is to **** can Dennis Thurman and get a guy that can utilize the pass rushers we have and probably to can Roman as well and get a guy who will actually utilize our stud WR and TE.

I'm floored at how mismatched our schemes are for our roster and how undisciplined we play. This years results are probably 85% on the coaches.

I told you from day 1. The issue with Rex Ryan is that he is Buddy Ryan's son. You fools wanted him. Now sleep in the bed you've made.

He was a bumbling fool as the Jets coach. Even when Sanchez was winning him games.
