Get ready for some scorching 2016 NFL week two hot takes from every game. Rest assured there will be some surprises and controversial topics.

Fittingly it starts with the suddenly mess thing have become down in Buffalo.

Greg Roman firing feels like a message from owners to Rex Ryan

Rex Ryan said that the firing of offensive coordinator Greg Roman was his decision and it was made in the best interests of the Buffalo Bills organization. This after Romo helped the team lead the league in rushing the year before and made Tyrod Taylor a Pro Bowl quarterback. However word out of Buffalo says team ownership actually met with the players to get their thoughts on the coaching staff situation. The belief being they the Roman decision came off pressure from above.

If the Pegulas’ are beginning to flex their muscles with the team, there can be no doubt that this latest move was a clear statement. It is still Rex Ryan’s team but he’s been put on notice. If they aren’t afraid to dismiss a credible assistant two games into the season, then how much longer before the head coach is next? Ryan will be under immense pressure to win moving forward or he may kiss his last chance at a head coaching job goodbye.
