Welcome to a loaded edition of the Rockpile Report, featuring guests Erik Turner of Cover1.net & former SD Chargers blogger Jeff Siniard! We were supposed to go bi-weekly but this week carried too much news to pass up, with the hire of Sean McDermott. We talk about the press conference, and about why Jerry Sullivan and most of the TBN crew can bite the fattest part of Drew's ass. Then, with Erik Turner we talk about the changes coming between the newly hired staff and the defensive scheme. and how our current personnel fits them.  And finally, Drew editorializes on the situation in San Diego with the help of former BoltsFromTheBlue.com blogger Jeff Siniard. It's something that not only infuriates Drew, but is also a story line that Bills fans need to realize can play out for anyone considering the NFL's business model.

This week, we talk about the future of Kyle Williams, we recap the New Years Day game in New Jersey against the NYJ with guest Gary Smith, and talk about how Russ Brandon's exclusion from the coaching staff might be a sign of growth for our organization.  Then, Drew drinks a bunch of beers and goes off about the Whaley press conf. from Monday. If you're sensitive to the term "hacks", prep yourself.  Steve Tasker was right - we Bills fans are 90% scar tissue. That's why I know we're all tough enough to see this rebuild through, and when we get there it'll be sweeter than the 269 beers we polished off while recording this season. Thanks for listening & Let's Go Buffalo!
