that would make everyone happy. Fist round draft pick trades might just grease the ways and seal the deal. Oh, but to be a fly on the wall.

Now they will have to learn a new system and the next coach will probably get fired since they're impatient in Buffalo and their playoff drought will continue.

They should fire their GM. Only 30% of their roster are draft picks the team made one of the lowest rates in the NFL.

Since Belichick showed up in New England (2000), the other three teams in that division have had 23(!) head coaches.

That's an average tenure of just over 2.2 years. That may be part of the problem!

"The Buffalo Bills fired head coach Rex Ryan yesterday, and the camera was rolling as he slowly rolled away in his ostentatious pickup truck, painted in Bills colors, from the facilities."

Rex Ryan is a good defensive coordinator, except for the fact that his defenses lack discipline (see their defensive collapse against the Patriots the year they cheated into almost going undefeated). He's a lousy head coach.
