Congrats to Wade Phillips

[Mike]

Congrats to beating the Pats, having a Top D and going to SB 50

Boys this is what a Real Defense looks like
The Denver D won the game today, they beat one of the best QBs of all time while being limit on offense

I remember the 1999 Bills D with Wade and that Defense was also super dominant.

Looking forward to SB 50

[Mike]

Wade & Broncos D totally earned this
they deserve this

Congrats Wade
your one of the top defensive minds in football

[feldspar]

Yes, our old pal Wade is at the top of the list as to why the Broncos are going to the Super Bowl. No doubt. Good for him.

Carolina is going to crush denver like seattle did, unfortunately. Today's game was a statement to their opponent.

yep. Unless Carolina just straight up folds they'll destroy the broncos something terrible. BOTH NFC champ teams would have won against any team in the AFC; this year's superbowl was played in the NFC championship game. the broncos are 3.5 point dogs, put your house up for mortgage and all that money down on the Panthers. they'll win by double digits guaranteed. sucker bet of the year right now. no way that line stays at 3.5

I hate this "Best QB's of All Time" BS. How good would they be if they played when receivers paid for going over the middle, PI not called if you put just a finger on the receiver and the QB being an over protected little girl with holding allowed for the Superstars' protectors?

[YardRat]

Both Manning and Brady would have already been retired or beaten to a pulp.

[Historian]

Congrats to Wade.

The only Bills coach to never have a losing season here.

[swiper]

Phillips & DeHaven were not bad coaches. It's just how the Bills tend to use everyone wrong. Phillips was classic. He's a great DC. Proven repeatedly. But he's not a good head coach. Proven repeatedly.

And firing DeHaven over the Music City Miracle? Was stupid then, and still is.

[Cali512]

I could of sworn Phillips was forced to get rid of DeHaven and didn't want to

[justasportsfan]

Defenses - Win - Championships !!!!!!!!!

This is why we hired Rexy.
He is going to take our no. 4 ranked D and improve on it to make it no. 1. He's going to build a bully!


Oh wait!!!!
He made it 19. We got bullied by the nerd's younger nerdy sister( Jax) There's always next year. Maybe he'll make it no. 10 and if there's a 3rd year, he'll make it no. 4. Back to where we freaking started.

Screw Wade Phillips -- not having the sack to start Flutie over RoJo. Has he ever issued a public apology?

Ronny Jones, the guy who succeeded DeHaven.

I'm pretty sure that was all Ralph, and Wade had no choice.

We had the number 1 defense that year. But I have heard Wade say that the Bills would have won that game had Flutie played. I agree with him totally.

[Mike]

I recall that 1999 Bills defense so fondly

Thats was an awesome defense
King's of the 3&out
They we're a classic

Since then, we have had a few good defenses where we ranked in top 5 but those D's didn't hold a candle to that 99 defense

[Mike]

What's must interest in this that this is Wade's 2nd trip to SB as D coordinator for ....
the Denver Broncos

Last time Wade went to SB it was 25years ago when Denver faced the 49ers.

[sudzy]

Wade sure knows defense. What happened here? Joe Pendry and Ronnie Jones. Nuff said.

[Mace]

Ronny Jones, the guy who succeeded DeHaven.

Incidentally, regarding Ronnie Jones, the ST coach Wade refused to fire, he went to Ottawa for a year (KC Collegiate athletic conference, coming off a 9-0 record they went 6-4 under Jones as HC), then West Texas A&M (5-27, HC Lone Star Conference), and for the past 9 years has worked at Arlington Martin high school as DC.

Made no sense for Wade not to just fire him.

Great DC, not so good HC.

[stuckincincy]

I'm pretty sure Phillips makes it into the HOF at some point. Like Dick LeBeau, their HC record wasn't best, but what an impact they both had on defense performance...
