Transcript

00:00What were your initial thoughts when you heard Sala got fired?

00:03I was shocked.

00:04I didn't see this coming.

00:05I don't think anybody saw this coming.

00:06I don't think Robert Sala saw this coming from all reports that he showed

00:09up after the loss against the Vikings Monday, did his normal job, talked to

00:13the team, reviewed the tape, came in Tuesday and was ready to go to work

00:17and prepare for the Bills and he got the knock on the door.

00:19So I think I'm shocked.

00:22You know, listen, even Adam Gates made it through the season.

00:24I thought he was a dumpster fire.

00:26So to see, to see Robert Sala, who I think, you know, if you split

00:31them in half, the person, the human being is a great man.

00:33I've had multiple conversations with him.

00:35Great guy.

00:36From the coaching standpoint.

00:39Listen, defensively, they're up to par.

00:41I mean, they're a top five, top 10 defense.

00:43On the offensive side, they're just, they're just, they're, they're not

00:46good and they look stagnant and this is with Aaron Rodgers and this is

00:50with Aaron Rosen and this is with two stud running backs and a revamped

00:54offensive line.

00:54So the question is, all right, what does fire fire Robert salad due to

00:59this office?

00:59How does this spark?

01:00How does it get this in the right direction?

01:01And I don't think anybody has an answer that to that right now.

01:05I think if you, if anybody I thought was to be fired, wasn't the thing

01:08you hack it.

01:09And so the fact that hack has a job and solid doesn't is a wild moment.

01:14I don't, I don't know what to take about take of it.
