Bills fans already seem about 50/50 right now between realizing Rex just hired his entire Jets staff and "OMG SEXY REXY LOVES SNOW N SUPERBOWL"...should be fun to watch how this plays out.

And that's one of his biggest downfalls as a coach. Loyalty to shitty, over the hill players. Loyalty to shitty offensive coaches that he constantly surrounds himself with. The guy is a fucking idiot. You can like his personality and charisma all you want. Still doesn't change the fact that he's essentially a glorified DC. And it's not like a good DC is what Buffalo needed to take the next step. They had the 10th ranked defense under Pettine in 2013 and the 4th ranked defense in 2014 under Schwartz. Hey as a coach I agree with you 100%. The loyalty was one of many shortcomings. I'm happy as anyone and he's gone ,but I was separating the person from the coach, rex definitely seems the type once you're on his side you're on his side if you act like a drunken asshole and start a fight at a bar he'll have your back. Loyalty or true loyalty is a hard commodity to come by nowadays. Maybe he reminds me too much of some of my knuckleheaded friends that are loud and obnoxious but when you peel the layers off have a really good heart. I'm sure some you have people you work with that aren't great at their jobs and frustrate you,but still good people,That you could grab a beer after work with. As people have said before id have a beer with Rex. I agree 100% that he's a likable guy who you want to root for. But what it all boils down to is this...he's an incompetent jackass who enables every player and coach on his team. Oh God, how I would fucking LOVE a coach who tells it like it is and isn't going to pat a player on the back and compare him to an all-time great every time that he fucks up. There's a big reason why Parcells was as successful as he was and there's a reason why Homeless Hoodie is as successful as he is... Accountability Players actually FEARED Parcells. Fuck up and I'm not going to pat you on the back...I'm going to put you through the fucking ringer about how you better square shit up before your ass is waiting in the unemployment line. That's one of the biggest things that always disgusted me about Rex, even when I was still a huge fan of his. You aren't coaching 10 year old kids...you're coaching grown men who get paid millions to play a kids game for a living. Either they step the fuck up or they get to stepping. Rex could never grasp that, for some reason.

And people honestly thought that Rex was going to turn some kind of corner, realize his mistakes, and become a better coach? David Lee, Tony Sparano Jr. and Sanjay Lal... Good Lord we'll see what they do next season. They're roster is heavens above us right now, they have maybe the 2nd best in the division. Bills will improve roster even more. And its not the coaches fault if a player shits himself on the field.If you are a beast (watkins) there's no regression, no matter the coach because YOU are taking your own skills and talents on the field and the tools you've already learned .

He just hired Aaron Kromer, the former Bears OC who told a reporter that the Bears were having buyers remorse on Cutler anonymously. Woulda thought he would have learned after Pettine.

LOL No it isn't They have a better CB lineup at the moment...what else is better? On offense, Kyle Orton is retired...C.J. Spiller is as good as gone (probably coming here) and Fred Jackson will be 34 years old next month. What real building blocks do they have on offense besides Watkins, who they forfeited their 1st round pick this year in order to obtain? That whole fucking team is up Shit Creek without a paddle. They hired Rex as a walking, talking sound bite to make them somewhat relevant again. Period

Is their roster really that much better? You could easily argue our offensive talent is better. They have a better defense, mainly because of the secondary. Also, how much better is that roster going to get? They will lose Orton and Spiller. They don't have a first round pick and are in a middle of the road cap situation.

LOL Greg Roman is officially a fucking puppet. Rex and the rest of the dumbfuck failures of the Jets past are going to be running that offense. Good luck, Buffalo. But hey, at least you'll have those weekly press conferences to keep you entertained. Lolz That really is nuts. I'm pretty supportive of Rex but this was an opportunity to start anew, to reboot how he might handle Offense and to eliminate anything that may or may not have been "forced" on him by the Jets FO or guys that MM wanted, etc. Unless we're totally missing something he basically just brought in a new OC in Greg Roman and is handing him David Lee and Sanjay Lal as key assistants? I'll reserve judgement until we get into the season and see some results but on paper these decisions are face-palm city!

I'm glad I don't have to worry about that idiot coming back as a coach. I have no idea what Rex is thinking but bringing over Lal and Lee shows how off base he is as a coach. Those two guys are completely worthless. The more telling thing is what this says about Greg Roman. I don't know if Roman has a previous relationship with either Lal or David Lee, but if he doesn't then he's totally going off Rex's recommendation. And that recommendation seems to be that two key assistants from one of the NFL's worst passing attacks over the past 3 years should be working under you as the OC.

Sammy Watkins career should go directly to the toilet now. Just when it couldn't get any funnier.... Rex has learned NOTHING from his firing

What's funny is the Bills fans saying not to judge Rex and his staff off of their previous 3 years of work, rather the start of his career. Completely ass backwards - sounds like many of us the last few years.

Greg Roman is a puppet and always has been. Until he joined Harbaugh with the 49ers in 2011, his only past OC work was with...Holy Spirit High School in Absecon, New Jersey. He was an assistant OL coach with the Panthers, Texans and Ravens before that. 49ers fans fucking HATE the guy and put the brunt of Kaepernick's regression solely on him. But hey, the guy has experience running the option and wildcat...so you know Rex is totally head over fucking heels for him.

Rexis definitely not cut out to be a HC. And Buffalo won't be able to bring themselves to fire him any time soon. Just like us. This guy is just stubborn as can be. The Bills will continue our downfall. They have no idea either. Rex has some fuckin Jedi mind control powers or something. LOL
