The Bills have no time to let the defeat linger. They’ll barely have enough time to let their bodies recover before they’re on the field again Thursday night in Miami.

The challenge at the outset of the new week is on the coaching staff. Doug Marrone and his staff after finishing up the game against the Chiefs Sunday, walked across the parking lot and began reviewing that game on tape. After drawing up coaching points and corrections they moved on to Miami not long after the footage from the Dolphins’ Sunday game in Detroit arrived.

From that along with a host of scouting reports and statistical analyses the coaching staff then put together a game plan through the overnight hours of Sunday into Monday.

“We just slept here,” said Marrone of his staff. “In order to get the work done and get the film in from the Detroit game and get everything, all the reports done and get the game plan set and meeting with the doctors on the injuries to see who is available and who is not. So it’s pretty much standard around the league for us as coaches.”

“I think playing a division team is good because you’ve seen them,” said Kyle Williams. “You do have some tendencies on them. They’re playing good right now. There’s always going to be new wrinkles week in and week out especially on a quick turnaround, having played them a lot helps for sure.”

The players’ on the field work Monday consisted of a walk through practice just over 24 hours removed from Sunday’s game.

“How you practice is difficult and challenging because obviously (Monday) is just a walk through,” said Marrone. “We just played a game (Sunday). Tuesday is more like a (shorter) Friday, Saturday type practice. You try to make sure that they’re prepared and ready to go and seeing things at a speed that they’re going to see in four short days. I think those are all the challenges. We all have them. Obviously the team we’re playing has it so it’s at least equal from that sense.”
As for the game plan Marrone maintains that the volume of the plan will not change from what it normally is in a typical game week. Where the issues arise is if the coaching staff wants to make a few changes to their approach beyond what is required for that particular opponent. With less time to rep such changes in a shortened week there is no proving ground to ensure that the changes are going to change their performance for the better.

“I think it all depends upon what type of team you have,” Marrone said. “I think for us if we go out there, will we make some changes? Yes we will. Will they be dramatic changes? Probably not. We don’t have enough time to know or feel comfortable about whether it’s going to work or not. You’ve just got to put your players in the best position to execute and play.”

Coaches that work too hard = stupid. They aren't smart enugh to figure out what to do. They are just in there "churning." Tony Sparano was the master of that. There is a limit to your productivity. It's asinine.
 
My immediate reaction was also Tony Sparano working 17 hours+ per day, 7 days per week. Just putting in big hours, probably means that they are not working smart.
 
TBH, I wouldn't doubt if our coaches did the same thing. Or any coaching staff playing on a Thursday night after playing the previous Sunday.
 
I don't think it's going to matter what their coaches do. If we can block their front four, we probably win. If not, we don't. Simple as that.
 
If they're sleeping they're wasting time. How much actual time are they saving by sleeping at their facility?
 
They were probably having wet dreams about facing our oline.
 
Yet they found a sound night's sleep after seeing Dallas Thomas going to RT.
 
John Grueden did this, he also painted his office jet black and only had a desk lamp in there. He claimed it was so he never knew the difference because he got to work at 4:30am and left at 11:30pm.
 
**** them and their dumbass coaches.

Right? Real hard decision on who to line up on that side...
 
Battle in the trenches and turnovers decide who wins Thur. Can our patched up line slow down buffalo defense?
 
I was under the impression they slept there every night; homeless bums.

Bills Suck.
 
It's tough. But consider some of the things regular" folks have to do to feed there families?
