Bill Pollian was on the other line giving them a list

Again it doesn't matter what they should have done.

This is still a winnable game.

He should have done that from the start. This structure where everyone reports to him is absurd.

I think Whaley has done a pretty good job.

He has been really good at getting production out of some very important yet value type contracts (Alexander, Brown).

Injuries and lack of WR depth has killed this team.

My guess is he gets one more year, one more draft to fix it.

The point of this is Ryan would be fired

And Doug has basically dug his own grave I mean he could have Mack, Derek carr right now

But instead we have Sammy Watkins that we wasted our future for when we didn't have a quarterback installed

Hughes has been hit or miss which is a bit weird.

Gilmore is not a top 5 corner

The Bills biggest needs right now:

WR WR
Safety
LB
CB
OL

This is of course not counting QB but I am still in the mindset that Taylor could be more than a game manager if he had some sort of weapon to use

You realize firing head coaches every 2-3 years will never work right? Because the new guy will have different systems and want different types of players. Rex finally has his defense where he wants it. Things take time. We fire him we are a poop show for at least 5 more years.

No he needs to go ..

It's his fault he never address the wide receiver position in the summer everyone was calling for that vet wide receiver he did absolutely nothing .. Wasted money on Charles Clay who does nothing just blocks Half the time .

Wasted pics on Williams and then cuts him don't give me this bullpoop well that's because he's fat but he drafted him so he should know what kind of player he got

Overall he has done a good job, but the parts where he failed have killed this team.

- Watkins trade
- Not having more qb options

I would rather have a coach that can back up what he says Rex is all (frank)ing talk
He has the defense where it is ? I remember when we had elite defense Almost

He's the GM he should know that we should have a quarterback in place first

Look with the Raiders did we did the opposite

You realize the players love the way he talks right? He does it to keep the attention on him and off of the players. And it works.

We brought in a new coach with new systems. Exactly what will happen again if we fire him.

what more proof do you need that Taylor is not a good QB ? I watched qBs come back when they're down by 15 or more sometimes four minutes left in the game do you ever see Taylor doing that

Personally I'd prefer to have a team that doesn't end up down by 15 to begin with....

That would be great...

There are some games that you need your QB need to dig you out of a hole and our QB can't do that
