Yesterday, Rex Ryan became the third head coach to be handed a pink slip after just two seasons as the Buffalo head coach. Although I wasn't in love with the hire when it happened I think Buffalo had a pretty quick hook for Ryan especially in the division led by Tom Brady and Bill Belichick. The Buffalo Bills organization is about as unstable as it can get they will be on the 10th head coach in 17 years. It looks like can be a long road back to contention for the bills as they have more questions than answers especially at the quarterback position.
Ryan has done something we would have never thought possible at the beginign of the season; He has made the Bills' defense worse. Ryan has finally gotten a consitent offensive game, and now his defense is thing that is holding him back. He is supposed to be a defensive guru, but he has been far from that this season. As a team the Bills have a total of 20 sacks this season. Numerous defensive players have made their frusterations clear via the media.
In 2009, arguably one of the best Super Bowl was played in Tampa, Florida. This game featured the AFC champions Steelers and the NFC champions Cardinals, in which the Steelers prevailed 27-23. As any football fan could tell you the score of this game was not a low one at all. For the cardinals to put up 23 against the Steelers number one defense was shocking. Even more stunning, was to see the Steelers offense generate enough offense to put up 27 point. The Steelers offensive game had been struggling throughout the season, but their hard hitting, alert defense made up for it. Yet, this game is no joke a tam cannot win if any part of their game is slacking. Knowing this the Steelers came out ready to play. This game wasn’t just a high scoring
NFL players representing all 32 teams along with several team owners held an American flag burning event outside Heinz Field, home to the Pittsburgh Steelers football team, on Monday morning.

The Buffalo Bills are the professional football team from the Buffalo-Niagara Falls metropolitan area.

Hot Seat - Todd Bowles took over as head coach after Rex Ryan was let go after the 2014 season for the Jets. In his first year, as we talked about earlier, he went 10-5 and missed the playoffs by 1 game. 2016 wasn’t great and people called for his firing. We won’t talk about the 90s since the Jets had Pete Carroll, Bill Parcells and Bill Belichick, even if just for 1 day, as their head coach at some point during that time. Since the 2000 season, the Jets have had 5 head coaches in 17 years. Personally, I think that’s about an average number. No team is going to have 1 during that time frame unless you are the Pats. Oh, or Cincy, who, let’s face facts, nobody knows how Marvin Lewis has that job still. I am a firm believer that in the NFL coaches really get the short end of the stick, mainly the ones who have 1 or 2 good years, then 1 bad year. If they have 1 bad year, odds are they are fired. Unless the
On the political cartoon “ little perspective” by Michael Kemirez illustrates an American soldier’s coffin on the sideline of a football field next to an NFL athlete kneeling with a jersey labeled misguided.The commotion that the nfl has gotten in the past few weeks has negatively affected the company. Is it ok for an NFL athlete to protest during a game? No, because it's ineffective, causes diversity, and has brought sales for the NFL down.
1.) The most loyal fan base in the NFL belongs to the Buffalo Bills. 2.) Bills fans have had to endure losing the Super Bowl, not once, but four times. 3.)

The next two plays cause every Bills fan to cringe: “Wide Right” and “The Music City Miracle.” 5.) Both plays are two prime examples of the rotten luck that most Bills fans have to endure. 6.) Not to mention, current Bills fans have to suffer through the NFL's longest active playoff drought. 7.) Any Bills fan born after the year 1999 has no clue what watching your favorite team play in January feels like. 8.) In conclusion, Buffalo

The fifties proved to be a difficult time for baseball. As America was busy changing baseball remained the same. The middle class began to move out of the city to the suburbs, away from the major league ball fields. Therefore, leaving behind low-income mostly black families, which did not bring much profit to the ballfields. The fields and parking lots were too small to bring any real profit to the teams as well, and many whites were too scared to venture into these neighborhoods to even watch a game.

In the 1960’s not only did almost every high schools have cheer squads but most colleges had squads too. NFL teams began making cheer teams in 1960’s too.The first NFL cheer team was in Texas and known as The Dallas Cowboys.
