Buffalo is 28th in the NFL in offense and 14th in defense and the only reason that defensive rating looks that decent is because nobody bothers passing and just runs it down their throats and shortening up games by grinding the clock. They are dead last against the run. I'm not going to argue that he isn't the type of guy I would expect Peterson to hire but he sure as hell isn't a guy I would want. Buffalo's struggles might not have anything to do with his coaching ability but I want a guy coming in who has been recently exposed to winning and success as the odds are much greater they can come in and duplicate it.

Exactly and I sure wouldn't want to further compound those mistakes with another.

I want new blood and new system also I just don't see anything in this guys resume to date that says he is worth the risk of being saddled with another 3 or 4 year mistake. That is the problem when you making a coaching change, nobody is willing to admit mistake and make a quick change even when it is obvious so one hiring mistake punishes the fans and team for 3 plus years usually. As for being a player...that honestly doesn't matter to me. They use to think that was a big deal and a non-player was unheard of but now they are learning that the only thing that really matters is intelligence, football knowledge and leadership skills. Charlie Weis is a good example. Not sure exactly as to who I want at this point but I don't want to take a risk on a guy who is a DC that is the worst in the NFL at stopping the run. We have had enough of people running over us at will in the last few years to last me a lifetime...don't need any more of that.
