    Didn't he coach the Jets to consecutive AFC championship games?

    Yep, but with no offence. I don't yet know if Rex Ryan just can't build a good offence or if he just had bad luck with horrible players in NY. I guess we'll find out, although Buffalo isn't a great place to go either. That team does stupid things, like drafting EJ Manual, trading the farm away for Sammy Watkins when they could have waited to get a guy like Evans or OBJ, or even wait until a later round and grab a guy like Adams, Latimer, Moncrief, etc.

    No offense?
    Mark Sanchez
    Braylon Edwards
    Shonn Greene
    Alan Faneca
    Nick Mangold
    Danny Woodhead
    Jericho Cotchery
    Looks pretty good to me.

    It looks horrible. Sanchez is a terrible QB, Cotchery is a decent WR3, Woodhead is a change of pace guy, Greene was always a terrible RB who had decent numbers because of the number of carries he got (similar to Mendenhall), and Edwards had 1 good year in his career. The Oline may have good good, but they had no playmakers

    Yeah, I'm a little surprised he took this job, maybe he was afraid he wouldn't get any other offers but he's basically walking into the same situation he had with the Jets. Unless, he's attracted to their defense, which very well may be the case. And I guess Orton is better than what he's had to work with in NY. No first rd pick though this draft, ouch.

    I thought Orton retired when the season was over, and the Bills QB ( cant remember his name) and Geno QB rateing and #'s are almost the same..... So it must be the thing that atracts him the most.. I think the B ills hired mainly to get more media atention really, + there was not a whole lot of coaches willing to coach there.. JMO

    E.J. Manuel is the qb they drafted to be the future. He's not looking like it though.

    I've always sorta liked the Bills and I hate they now have this loser for a coach. Better them than us though and whatever keeps him away from here is fine with me. It is beyond me how the most losing coach in football could be on so many radars.
