Thank you. A very small handful of people have been pointing this out since the consecutive blowouts to New England and San Francisco.
There are many motivating factors: money, professionalism, pride, and BELIEF IN THEIR LEADER.
When you have incompetent managers who squander your effort due to their ineptitude, you soon destroy the spirit and belief within the team.
Bottom line, if the Bills believed in Wanny, they would play hard because they'd know their efforts were likely to be rewarded.
However they know that every Sunday, they are being put in a position of failure due to their leader being outcoached by their opponent's leader.
The players know that even if they were to give the utmost effort, that their efforts would be wasted.
At some point the group becomes demoralized because they have zero belief in their leader.
When a team quits on a coach, they are saying "I'm not playing for this guy anymore. You can fire all of us or you can fire him."
