who is going to take the job where

your gm doesn't value your input
the front office tells you who to play as qb
a chunk of your team fails drug tests
dildos get thrown on the field
$6 tickets on stub hub
a really good chance your gone in 2 years, when you have no chance to compete with the pats for the division for the next few years

tyrod taylor was the bills quarterback because rex wanted him...how is that not valuing your coaches input when your coach has you bring in a player at the most important position on a football team?

Taken from twitter:

Here are Whaley's QB's:

Fitz
EJ
Thad lewis
Jeff Tuel
Orton from retirement
Tyrod
Cassel
Kolb
Cardale
Palmer
Leinart



Jesus Christ yeah why is he still here?

neither rex nor the new guy can play tyrod sunday, from higher powers

How did the GM not value his input? Lawson and Ragland scream Rex Ryan choices.

Rex wanted Taylor here.

$6 dollar tickets on Christmas eve for a team not making the playoffs really isnt a big deal.

agreed on the 2 years and out

$6 tickets before that game

neither ryan nor lynn could play tyrod this week

This one is a catch-22 for the team. Because if they allowed him to play and he gets hurt, that forces them to pay out that contract. They may very well want to keep him, but want to be able to restructure so they're being cautious. People would be female doging if they were forced into that because of injury just like they're female doging about him not getting to play this week.

Damned if you do and damned if you don't.

Why would you start a QB in a meaningless game that could be guaranteed 30 million if he gets hurt?

the direction of the bills

the direction of the front office

the direction of the 2017 coaching position

the direction of the stadium

an appreciation for the fans

an answer to where the dildo went

in so many words:

it didn't work out so we'll try again

russ is in charge of marketing, doug whaley has the football side

whaley's in charge of that

russ is in charge of that

we brought in the best coach we could and signed him long-term...it didn't work out

don't ask kim that question...I don't want to know

neither rex nor the new guy can play tyrod sunday, from higher powers
- homiedclown

and he shouldn't...

I guarantee if he played and was injured leaving the bills on the hook for his cap-hit, this and every bills forum would blow up

Yup...

Hope everyone is ready for back to back 4-12 seasons...

Won't help.

The person making the picks is also the problem.

I am no Bills fan, I just dont see how it didn't work out. This was two of their better seasons in their drought. Realistically this is their best 3 year period in the drought. It takes time to build a team with the coaches right personal and philosophy. Perfect example is Jason Garrett and his three 8-8 seasons in Dallas.

Now they are just going to bring in a new coach, with a different system and direction. The Bills regressed yesterday.

That list isn't great, but if finding a QB was easy, there would be 32 good ones in the league. People point to Dak and Russell Wilson and say we could've had them. Sure, maybe, but I'm a firm believer a player's fate isn't the same in a different situation. There's no guarantee Wilson turns into Wilson if drafted by the Bills. If Dak doesn't have one of the greatest offensive lines in football, he might not be Dak on another team. You can win with Taylor and I want him here next year to prove it. If not, then we start over. I'm not saying we don't draft a QB this year to hedge our bet, but Taylor earned another year. Get David Lee the hell away from OBD. Taylor's Completion % went down after his arrival, just like Fitz's the last go round with Lee. I swear that Taylor's throwing mechanics changed from year one to this year too. He was precise on the deep ball last year.

Won't help.

I don't agree with this. Whaley has brought in a lot a talent. This is from a 3rd party POV (me).

His really only mistake was trading up for Watkins. He didn't draft EJ. It is pretty obvious he has never trusted EJ, brought in both Kolb and Kyle Orton during EJ's rookie year.

you could be right...but fact is, rex's defense was a colossal failure and he was supposedly a defensive genius...whaley did a lot of work bringing in playmakers on offense thinking rex could take care of the d...it didn't work out

If you aren't part of the solution you're part of the problem.

Whaley's part of the problem.

The team needs an enema.

top to bottom.

I know. But this is the first time where the advanced stats support what we've been saying.

He's been a beast this year. I feel like at times last year he played on the timid side of things. This year he's just going out and killing it every night.

He seems to be a man on a mission.
- HonkFortheGoose

On top of that, this is happening after he just signed his first big deal.

That is promising.

it's going to be the pathetic jaguar team where they had MJD and nothing else

I'm sure guys aren't retiring because Rex is leaving. Eric Wood has his family here.

Gimore was gone regardless, and who wants to pay 33 year old Alexander?

- Michael Pachla

Not that I loved Rex, because honestly, he was definitely not who I thought would be a good fit, but his overall system relies heavily on having high level play from the safety position, and Whaley did nothing to help in shoring up that very important position for him. The probability that Aaron Williams would make it through this year was probably very low, yet Whaley did nothing to address it.

Rex had 28 coaches....

28!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Think the avg is in the 15 range.

I agree, goosie...but i'm pretty sure rexy would say something like they'd be fine and that he'd be able to make it work...because he was a defensive genius

- dadeadhead

Sure, and they should, but is Alexander, the career special teams player, only staying if Rex is here? I find that hard to believe
