    Agree 100%.  Bean & McD completely screwed up the plans for Allen in 2018.  To their credit they shook the cobwebs off and fired those two horrible WR's (Bengiman & Holmes) and brought in veteran help for Allen.  But the credit for Allen not busting goes to DaBoll and Allen himself. 

    I couldn't agree more. We were in a tough spot with the salary cap, but there was no help for Allen at the start of the season.

    I disagree.  Looking at how McD & Bean handled Allen his rookie year is an insight into how the Bills have handled him and the offense over the last 6 seasons.  My and other peoples arguments about why we need to move on from McD have been twofold:

     

    *  As a defensive coach McD will commit more resources to the defense then to the offense. And he will always be more comfortable with defensive players and schemes then offensive players and schemes starting with the QB.

     

    *  Both Bean & McD are much less effective at judging offensive talent then they are defensive talent.

     

    I truly hope I'm wrong and McD/Bean can find a resolution to this quandary.  But until we make a Super Bowl with the current coaching/management group I remain skeptical.  The idea that teams with elite caliber QB's should have offense minded coaching is compelling to me.

     

     

     

     

    Who thought it was a good idea to bring in Harty & Sherfield?

  2. Huge mistake by McDermott & Beane. If they didn't sign Derek Anderson & Matt Barkley mid-season, we wouldn't have had any fire McDermott threats in 2023 because he would have been long gone & Allen would have busted.

    There really is no hope for this season. Medically and logically, it's WAY too soon and McDermott has said time and again, it doesn't look good.

     

    Holding out hope because he's said that instead of saying "no" is the very definition of Garth from Dumb and Dumber - "so you're saying there's a chance...."

    Garth was from Waynes World. Thats a Lloyd Christmas quote from D&D

    I loved Steve Tasker as a player, but Steve Tasker the announcer could barely put together a coherent thought.

     

    Mind you the Tiffany network has Greg Gumbel announcing games at 77, had Verne Lundquist until he was 81, and had Dick Enberg announcing until he was nearly 80.

    Dick Enberg called Padre games until the end. Also Tasker was a sideline reporter, a job once reserved for former players now only filled by attractive women (not complaining, would rather look at Pam Oliver than Steve)
