Hoss Posted January 12, 2015 Report Posted January 12, 2015 Why is the ladder so unlikely? Would a staircase be more likely? Perhaps an elevator? Because Dungy and Shanahan are old. They generally use lifts or elevators. (Or I was typing quite and picked the wrong form of latter haha) Quote
Doohicksie Posted January 12, 2015 Report Posted January 12, 2015 John Fox out as Broncos HC I'm shocked. Shocked, I say. <_< Quote
Hoss Posted January 12, 2015 Report Posted January 12, 2015 Agree completely with Graham on Schwartz. This just can't work. Two loud-mouthed guys running two completely different schemes. Jim lost out to Rex on the HC job and is now likely to lose many of his assistants while Rex brings in his guys. He's likely to have little control over his defense. It's probably better for everybody involved if Schwartz leaves. If he doesn't I'd be nervous about things blowing up when problems arise. Quote
inkman Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 I think the injury news would be the opposite of an indication that he comes back. He's only going to get hurt more. Ath-a-letes don't think this way Quote
WildCard Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 Ath-a-letes don't think this way I meant it not in that he'd be worried about his health, but it will affect his performance Quote
wjag Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 I would imagine Manning will soldier on. Although a new HC and OC ought to send him to the broadcast booth. Just think, only a few more years of Brady too... Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 Yes...that is the point. Fitz went 30 years off of feel, and that entire preseason and early on, he went on instruction. It was easy to tell he was f'ing himself up in the head. Lee was probably the biggest reason Gailey/Nix/Fitz got sh!tcanned. Dude, his stats in Buffalo before and after Lee are identical. And Lee is the reason that group got canned? I'm glad this subject came up, our agreement yesterday was disturbing me. I would imagine Manning will soldier on. Although a new HC and OC ought to send him to the broadcast booth. Just think, only a few more years of Brady too... I actually think the firing makes it more likely Manning returns. I think he made it pretty clear to Elway that if he comes back, he wants a better (maybe just more progressive) head coach. I just can't picture Elway making this move without consulting Manning...I just don't think he's ready to turn over the keys to the franchise to Brock Osweiler. Quote
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 I just remember thinking it while watching that season. I looooooved me some Ryan Fitz, too. He and I are soul brothers with the same birthday. For the record, I like the idea of Fats as our coach, and it's a shame that he's not as Fats anymore. I almost want a fatty DC to come in so we have the perfect Buffalo coaching staff. What a promotion.....raise parking prices in the stadium lots to $35, but have the coaching staff come around at 10:30 in a golf cart, sampling tailgate selections with fans. Quote

JJFIVEOH Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) https://twitter.com/...800676707266561 Vic CarucciVerified account@viccarucci Seems unlikely DC Jim Schwartz will remain w #Bills, despite Rex Ryan offering him chance to stay. Schwartz probably gone by tomorrow. Edited January 13, 2015 by JJFIVEOH Quote
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 I'm with Ghost. A pretty stunning Pegula hire. My money was on Frank Reich. AdultCoachFinder.com Quote

JJFIVEOH Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 Bummer if Schwartz wants to go. But understandable. Schwartz was my 2nd choice for head coach. He was probably hoping to get the job, probably why he wants to move on. Yeah, understandable. Quote
darksabre Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 National guys have it as well. Schwartz out by his choice, Dennis Thurman in with Rex calling D. Truffle Shufflin off to Buffalo. Quote
Hoss Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 Maybe I missed it but has it been announced what we got out of Stevie? And what are we giving for Brown? Quote
Hoss Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 Have to imagine Schwartz goes to the top of every DC list. Pittsburgh, NYG and Washington all available right now. Arizona and Carolina will potentially have openings if they lose their coaches. Arizona would be his best option in my opinion. Quote
Brawndo Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 Maybe I missed it but has it been announced what we got out of Stevie? And what are we giving for Brown? A 4th from SF and it went to the Eagles. So essentially we traded Stevie for Brown Have to imagine Schwartz goes to the top of every DC list. Pittsburgh, NYG and Washington all available right now. Arizona and Carolina will potentially have openings if they lose their coaches. Arizona would be his best option in my opinion. His family lives in Maryland, Washington might be a good fit Quote

So essentially we traded Stevie for Brown His family lives in Maryland, Washington might be a good fit That's what I assumed since I didn't think either made their performance qualifications. And good point. Quote
nobody Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 National guys have it as well. Schwartz out by his choice, Dennis Thurman in with Rex calling D. So back to the 6-10 season defense. Quote
Hoss Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 So back to the 6-10 season defense. Yeap. Didn't the offense go like 14-2 that year or something? :P Quote
Johnny DangerFace Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 Not to take anything away from our recent DCs, but let's give some credit to our front office who put this D together. It has a vast amount of pure talent at every position Quote
Hoss Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 One of the main reasons I'm not worried about the defense: Mario Williams. I believe he could play 4-3 DE or DT or 3-4 DE, OLB AND take a few snaps as a bull-rushing NT in the 3-4. In the 3-4 we will likely need to add another DE. Marcell at one, Kyle in the middle and xxx at the other DE. Williams and Hughes rushing with Brown and Kiko in the middle. I'm sure Rex has a relationship with somebody that he could bring in to play the other DE spot. Quote
