Adversity arrives early for Mularkey's Bills

[The_Philster]

Two games into a rookie coach’s tenure is too early to say if he’s got what it takes or not, but Sunday’s visit to Oakland provides the first huge test for Buffalo’s Mike Mularkey.

In his debut against Jacksonville, the Bills played hard, if not always smart, for their novice commander for nearly the entire afternoon.

Yep author is right. Rankings like 2nd best defense often mean very little.

It's very stupid to read here and elsewhere that somehow Gray was to be blamed for the loss!

LOL! :funny:

His unit only gave up 13 points and if it continues to do that, we will definately make the playoffs. The players on defense gave away that win. They played for only 48 minutes and sat out the rest. What a choke!

Players gotta play.

Ranking mean crap really. All that matters is points scored, points allowed and +/- turnover ratio. That's it. Alot of people are already writing us off. Why? The things that cost us this game are all correctable. You have to believe that this team will continue to improve and it all starts this week at Oakland.
