What would these rich ass owners be doing if they weren't all born into luxury...holy shit talk about incompetence The Sporting News' Alex Marvez reports the Bills' front office forced coach Rex Ryan to fire OC Greg Roman as a "sacrificial lamb" following Thursday night's embarrassing home loss to the Jets. Per Marvez, the front office "leaned on" Rex to make a "significant change" in hopes of "appeasing a disgruntled fan base." Ryan couldn't fire himself -- and certainly wouldn't fire his brother Rob -- so he fired Roman, who took the Bills' offense from No. 26 in offensive DVOA in 2014 to No. 9 in 2015, and scored 24 points Thursday night against a tough Jets defense. Meanwhile, Rex's defense finished No. 24 in DVOA in 2015 after ranking No. 2 under Jim Schwartz in 2014, and coughed up 37 points at home to the Jets. Marvez also confirms Rex himself "is feeling the heat" following an 0-2 start. The Bills are set up to start 0-4 with the Cardinals and Patriots next on the schedule. this is pretty strange. if rex's jet offense could score 24 per game in 2014 he'd still be coaching here. roman has got nothing to work with except for sammy and he was injured.

I think I know what's goin on here. Rex not only wants a goat for his failure, but a pushover for an OC.
I would imagine Roman is a headstrong OC who believes in his ability as a coach and would battle Rex when he felt his offensive game plan philosophy was wrong.
Lynn will just be a body in a headset for Rex to bully his run first offense down his throat.

From Vic Carucci in yesterday's Buffalo News: bills.buffalonews.com/2016/09/16/ryan-pushes-everything-middle-table-firing-roman/It sounds like the Pegulas have been very dissatisfied with Roman's offense since last year, including the Bills' low third down conversion rate, slow communication from sidelines to huddle, not using Sammy enough and tyrod's diffidence. So the firing isn't a reaction to just the one game performance

Greg Roman was not the problem in Buffalo. He actually got good production out of Bum ass Tyrod, Shady, Sammy and Co when healthy....
But Rex won't fire himself soooo..........

I honestly don't get all the Rex hatred and Roman was scapegoated that's going on here. To me it's real simple. Fair or not the Bills front office and coaching staff knows if Tyrod doesn't get straightened out they are all gone. Whaley already had his first round QB pick and missed. He will not get another. And Rex will not survive another GM change like he did here. So it's either Tyrod succeeds or everyone is gone. And through 2 games Tyrod has looked terrible. Hence Roman was sacked.
Just my 2 cents

I heard on the radio 'Bills are firing..... " and was sure it was Rex! Was this loss Roman's fault? My back was turned towards the media an a slow chill came over me as I realized how relaxed Rex was...HE'S DOING IT AGAIN....poor Roman
