    Harbaugh was absolutely in the wrong when it came to that altercation.

    Was thinking the same thing. He thought he would be the hottest
    commodity on the market. Complete douche bag. Way to demote yourself!

    Winners
    1. Buffalo Bills: The Bills didn't figure to be in the hunt for a coach following a 9-7 campaign, but Marrone surprised them by opting out of his contract three days after the season. Landing Rex Ryan as a replacement was a major move for the franchise. Already revered for his work building up defenses, Ryan inherits a top-five unit in Buffalo, and the offense could benefit from his hiring of former 49ers offensive coordinator Greg Roman. Now, the organization needs to find this new staff the right quarterback in order to succeed.


    Losers
    2. Doug Marrone, hot assistant coaches: Marrone's gamble fell short as he went from head coach of a Buffalo team that appeared on the rise to an assistant/offensive line coach in Jacksonville. How he could decide to take the $4 million buyout of his contract despite not having another head-coaching job lined up is incredible.

    The idiotic Bills just couldn't help themselves, could they (I'm from Buffalo and have lots of family there so I support them)? They are by far the worst franchise in existence including chess and checkers.

    Josh McCown, are you kidding me?!?

    Didn't we trade our first rounder?

    Trading into the top of the draft from the number 50 pick would cost 1st rounders for a decade

    I didn't know they traded their first round pick this year.

    I like it a lot. Hopefully we can move the ball more effectively and utilize his talent. Does this mean Spiller is out? Not sure what his contract situation is.

    Yeah. Probably go with freddy mccoy and dixon. Unsure about bryce brown.

    It would be nice if Brown could get his fumbling under control. Didn't we trade a draft pick for the guy?

    Why not use McCoy and spiller and get rid of the other two bums? I know spiller is getting paid a lot, but it makes sense to keep them both and use them both.

    Spiller is a ufa
