Coach Staley Discussion - Fired

[Riverwalk]

Daboll would have changed the offense as well.

Bills offense is still the same without Daboll. It proves players matter more than coaches….unless it’s the wrong 4th down call.

What kind of record would cool the fire staley talk?

I will "cool" my dislike for Staley as a head coach when he can lead this team to more convincing wins over opposition that is quarterbacked by backups like Davis Mills and Jacoby Brissett--instead of needing a missed field goal attempt by Cleveland following a stupid decision that I don't think even Anthony Lynn, Mike McCoy, or Norv Turner would have made.

with this crowd they still fire him after SB win coz he didnt win by 50

And you know this how? From all the Super Bowl rings that are NOT on LaDainian Tomlinson's, Antonio Gates's, and Philip Rivers' fingers?

In the end, the only thing that matters is if we make the playoffs or not. Style points, while making fans happy, don't really matter.

Things that have improved since staley’s arrival?

drafting has improved and with precise goals in mind

the offseason FA signing has also been focused, organized, and executed with clearly defined goals in mind,,,,

we haven’t lost a star player to injury in the preseason

the offensive and defensive lines have been dramatically improved

Also some dissapointing players drafted before his watch have blossomed under his tutelage…

overall, the in game time management has been better than under lynn

I'm sorry, but after wasting multiple Hall of Fame talents' careers, and with Justin Herbert as our current quarterback, simply making the playoffs is not enough. If we go 9-8 and lose badly in the first round that's not good enough. I will be encouraged if we see a trajectory similar to what the Bills accomplished in 2020 and 2021. I'll be more encouraged if we do what Cincinnati did last year. No success whatsoever in the playoffs this year will be no better than what we had with our previous head coaches.

Missed field goal attempt. Do you remember the opener in 2020 against CIN? Where the Bengals kicker tripped on the field goal attempt causing him to miss the kick, and the Chargers ending up winning it. There's was the 2019 game against the Bears, where the team escaped with the win when the Chicago kicker missed the field goal with the ball going wide left. These are just a couple, there are more besides these. This thing didn't just happen under Staley.

Did either of those happen when Anthony Lynn decided to go for it on fourth-and-2 at the 50-yard-line and the opposing team had Jacoby Brissett and no timeouts with 1:14 left?

I expect these circumstances to go better when we replace Anthony Lynn--not stay the same or get worse.

Not sure what you’re talking about or what it has to do with my post. If Daboll was our HC instead of Staley, then he would have changed the offense also.

Yeah I was gonna add his putting a low priority at LB because that is "his system" has backfired. We should have resigned Kyzir White for cheap like we could have. Imagine if we had ONE stiud LB how much better our run defense would be, but were stuck with Murray, Fox, Reeder, etc. A good coach looks at his situation and adjusts. I bet Staley goes to the same coffee shop, eats the same breakfast, believes his same system shit that worked before is foolproof, etc. Dude is in such a rut I hear the Panama Canal wants to hire him to dig their next canal.

Fox isnt a LB.
