They need time to do promos. When the **** are they going to implement that?

Just because. Compose yourself. We can go 0-2 with or without some crap hurry up if we have a good hardcount.

I remember when I was a Bills fan a few hours ago. When I was a fan, I never understood how the offense is so ****ing inept. Then I realized, our coaches are lazy ****s and just collecting paychecks.

Because this team has sucked for 17 years.

17 years?
Take out the Kelly Era and it's closer to 50 years.

Not to mention the dumbest ****ing name Bills. Should be Western NY Buffalos. But hey **** common sense. Let's be fictional.

How about the Buffalo Falls to regionalize the team, oh wait that's already the case.

Not only are we the only team in the league with a kickoff specialist, we now have a QB sneak specialist.

What in the actual funk is going on here?

I have never seen a team do such a bad job at clock management since I started watching football. Who the **** calls a play that 20+ seconds just to set up correctly with multiple shifts with under 2 minutes left in a half and the clock running? A play to get us 1 total yard literally cost us 45 seconds.

Not to mention the timeout we burned in the process....

I have to say, I really don't understand the EJ package. It's actually embarrassing as a Bills fan to watch that series of plays.

Roman is the first guy that should be let go. His offense is crap and he has no idea how to devise a passing game.

add in the 4 yard challenge to which the team responded with giving up 3rd and 9. if you can't stop 3rd and long with any consistency, you aren't a defensive genius.

and my point about the ej package is if your backup was TT and your starter was a pocket passer, the TT package of plays can highlight a mismatch. the LBs may not be "spying". so you may catch them flat footed. Aside from EJ being terrible, he is the same type of QB as TT. Mobile, not fairly accurate and not good with middle of the field. so having the package doesn't highlight any defensive mismatches. you are being gimmicky for the sake of being gimmicky.

Rex's time management is absolutely ridiculous and no one should be subjected to that level of ineptitude at the NFL level.

I asked this before the season began with Roman. How can you run an NFL offense and have no hurry 2 minute drill package.

And as for the defense, just wait till they go no huddle against us. We're looking at scores of 45-10.

or even a competent offensive team. Baltimore and the Jets are middling teams. they will be in the hunt until the end, but probably not getting in because they make bone head mistakes against the bills. the next two weeks, we are going to get a dose of the teams we should be aspiring to be. but the team's mentality is not about fielding a good team, its about getting 60k season tickets and if we need to sign reggie bush to get that, they'll do it.

Maybe Marrone knew what he was doing when he left.

He and Mularkey are both looking pretty smart right now.

Perhaps Rex is channeling former NYJ HC Herm Edwards...

Sure did. He read the tea leaves about how they successfully got Mularkey to bolt (folks persist in thinking that he quit - well he did because they stripped his entire staff - time-honored way to get a fellow to leave in any business endeavor).

I'm glad that Marrone knew what was what, and insisted on that multi-million dollar walkaway window.

Seems that is what it would take. The way they churn them over doesn't attract the better bunch:
