They tried to push him being frustrated but his body language didn't really show it. Since we are running off of assumption I thought maybe mcd was asking diggs to go pump up josh and help him get his head right. Allen took off right after that and I would have liked to have seen more of what happened when diggs went over near allen.

What happened when the chargers fired schottenheimer? They haven't won 14 games since that year, they made it to 1 afc championship game the next year, and then lost the divisional round (same as marty) the next 2 years. Since then? They made the playoffs twice in 13 years. Firing marty was dumb just like firing mcd would be.

Pete carroll 3-4 since 2015 John harbaugh 2-4 since 2014 Tomlin 0-3 since 2017 or if you prefer 3-7 since 2011. Its hard to win in the playoffs

Do you want to talk about how 3 of those 5 super bowl winning coaches have had less playoff sucess since mcdermott joined the Bills or would that not help your point?

I disagree with almost all being offense. It's pretty evenly split 15 total coaches 8 offense 6 defense 1 special teams 22 total super bowls 8 offense 12 defense 1 special teams

You can call me Mrs. McDermott lol. Did you read the OP? Did you see how hard it is to win 1 super bowl? Who is the best coach in the NFL right now today? Is it Belichick? snuck into the playoffs and got waxed by the Bills? Is it Andy Reid? Who has won 1 super bowl in over 20 years of coaching and for the last 5 has at a minimum top 3 qb in the league? Is it John Harbaugh? He missed the playoffs and the last time he was in the playoffs got beat by the Bills Is it Sean McVay? He has a 3-6 record Is it Mike Tomlin? He hasn't sniffed a superbowl in forever He doesn't have the confidence we are going to win if we play our way? That's crazy talk to me. People are complaining about his sticking with the nickel even when teams are gashing us. Isn't that confidence in the way we play? He went for it on 4th and 2 when many wanted a fg (myself included) isn't that confidence in his team? Name a coach, any coach, and I will show you a key situation where the call they made didn't work out. That is football. The hail Murray hurt but Hopkins was literally triple covered. How in the world is that on coaching? I'm not his agent but I recognize that he is a great coach and one the Bills would be very hard pressed to improve upon. So I go back to my previous challenges. Who do you want? Pick any coach you want and I will show you a gaffe they made or an incorrect call that they made. Don't let perfect be the enemy of very good.

Seeing Payton's name is exactly what prompted me to make this thread, thank you for typing out the record he had. You are spot on with this entire post. Football is fluky. All you can do is consistently make it to the playoffs by having your teams competitive and ready. Each year McD has done that. A great example that comes to mind was firing Marty Schottenheimer by the Chargers and then they wasted a ton of Rivers career trying to get even close to his level of success. Here is some more food for thought for those on the ledge and complaining: Since 2017 when McD took over a team that had gone through a 17 year drought: the Bills have the 9th best record in the entire NFL. https://www.statmuse.com/nfl/ask/best-nfl-record-since-2017 the Bills have the 7th most playoff wins in the NFL https://www.statmuse.com/nfl/ask/best-nfl-playoff-record-since-2017 Since 2020 when allen came into his own: the Bills have the 2nd best record in the entire NFL. https://www.statmuse.com/nfl/ask/best-nfl-record-since-2020 the Bills have the 4th most playoff wins: https://www.statmuse.com/nfl/ask/best-nfl-playoff-record-since-2020 It really is mind boggling the lack of respect he gets for being a top 10 coach at a bare minimum immediately upon his arrival. I won't lie I had to look that up as I thought it was John Fox.

Every coach makes calls that can be correct because they worked or gaffes because they don't imo. Every game calls get made that can be headscratchers or genius by every coach in the nfl. As i mentioned in the op, the defender was in position so the play call was good. Do we really think he hasn't been taught to knock it down there if even us at home know that's the right play? The fumble for td was a fumbled snap. One of the easiest and routine plays in football do we really think they need better coaching on that? If either of those plays are made, the Bills win and are 7-2. That's how close each game is and why people shouldn't overreact. I agree with you on trusting the coaching staff. It hurts losing especially the way they find to do so but this is still a damn good team with damn good coaches. Let's start with one. Then we will all probably get greedy lol

This post made me look. This topic was post 5500 for me in 13 years lol. Congrats to your milestone!

I really think the Patriots in general messed up all fans not just Bills fans idea of how easy it is to win. What they did is outrageous and such an outlier. Of course it required a bit of rule manipulation but there is no denying how impressive it was.

My how quick we turn on everyone associated with the Bills. This thread is a simple reminder as some think it is super bowl or bust for McD. As if winning the super bowl is some easy feat that coaches do all the time. If McD gets fired who is he replaced with? Here is the list of current Head Coaches that have won a super bowl and how many they have won: Bill B. 6 Andy Reid 1 in over 20 years as a HC Sean McVay 1, shining star in LA, currently 3-6 and in last place in the division Doug Pederson 1, already fired from that job, Eagles haven't been past the wild card round since Pete Carrol 1, in his 13th year with Seattle John Harbaugh 1, in 13 years Mike McCarthy 1, in 14 years, fired from that job, Packers haven't been to the super bowl since Mike Tomlin 1, in 14 years, has been to 1 AFC Championship game since 2010 Maybe you prefer a recently unemployed coach? Sean Payton 1, in 15 seasons, been to 1 NFC championship game since winning it all in 09 Bruce Arians 1, retired, great coach, not coming back, won it with Brady Jon Gruden 1, retired, mediocre coach, not coming back, won because his replacement didn't change signals. Or maybe you prefer a long since retired guy? (none of these guys are coming back) Tom Coughlin 2 Gary Kubiak 1 Tony Dungy 1 Bill Cowher 1 That is the last 21 super bowls. 13 guys have won it 1 time. 2 guys more than once. 1 guy more than twice. Winning a super bowl requires not only a tremendous amount of skill but also luck. McD has the best winning percentage for any coach in Bills history. They have lost 3 games to teams with a combined record of 21-7. 2 of them were divisional games on the road. All 3 combined were by 8 points. BBFS says they always find a way to lose, polyanna says it takes herculean efforts from other teams to beat the Bills. The truth is the Bills are a good team and a well coached team. McD didn't give up a long completion on 4th and 18. The player was even in position to make the play so you can't blame playcalling. Hyde and Poyer have missed how many games and yet the d continues to be effective save for last game. Milano, Oliver, Edmunds, and Rousseau have all missed games. Come back from the ledge.

He is paying them 4 million dollars is that not big rights fees? Lol

Since exploding as a rookie with 12 sacks Chubb has played in 33 games in 4 years including this year. In those 4 years he has 14 sacks. I get that he has name recognition but I think a 1st for a half year is a wild overpay. If they work an extension out things change but I'm not terrified of this move.

According to pff Alexander didn't play a single coverage snap against diggs lol

If anyone isn't using their code for a ps4 or ps5 I would use it.... lol

This moreso reminds me of when the bills traded away watkins and darby. Toney has had rumblings of being a malcontent back to training camp last year. Schoen and Daboll are putting their mark on the team and removing guys that don't buy in. At least thats how I see it.

223 passing ypg good for about 20th 11 passing tds tied for best in NFL 4 ints (NFL leader has 5) 5th highest qbr 4th highest qb rating if you prefer a more traditional stat 15th best completion % That is before you add in his rushing. 9th most rushing yards 2 additional rushing tds Combined: Most tds in the NFL Over 300 ypg generated Leading the 3rd highest scoring Offense. He might not be in the top 5 but he is somewhere around there. He will get his money due to the nature of the position and he will have earned every bit of it. The Miami loss is entirely on the defense unless scoring 38 points isn't doing enough somehow. Yesterday you can put some blame on the offense. However the Bills have one of if not the best defenses in the NFL.

Yes I do. In my living room, or my basement, or my friends house, or the bar. Standing cheering. Trying real hard not to yell at the tv for my wife and kids sake lol. As others mentioned the end zones stand and thats where my seasons were when I had them. That was pn purpose so that I could stand. For me a Bills game is a celebration and I dont sit at a party.

I know this is said in jest but.... Edmunds is 24 years old. He is 1 year older than Cook, Bernard, Quinton Morris, and Baylon Spector who are all rookies. He is the same age as Spencer Brown, Boogie, and Damar Hamlin who are in their 2nd year. In fact he is still, in his 5th year, the 14th youngest player on the Bills. That is wild to me. Love to see him playing so well and hope to see it continue!

I have a few self rules when doing survivor. Always pick a home team for one, never pick the colts for another one. They lost to the Jags week 1 for the Jags only win of the year a couple years ago. I don't care how much they are favored. I won't bet them. You only get to pick a team once so a lot of people try to "save" good teams. If you think one of the poorer teams will get a win you try to get cute and sneak through a week.

If you ever liked ozzy his newest song is a collab with jeff beck and it is way better than I expected. Check it out.

It's all about knowing the market. With the games so far away people can post them for high prices, if they sell great! If they don't sell you lower as it gets closer. Before the games start specifically right now is the worst time to buy tickets. Hype and excitement are at their highest. The best time to buy tickets is right after a loss. Demand is suppressed and supply is increased. Home opener is almost always the most expensive game of the year. Primetime is also something that increases price. The fact that the home opener is primetime and the Bills are the super bowl favorites is the perfect recipe for a very expensive ticket. The most important thing is knowing where to look though. The article states the cheapest ticket is $200. As I write this there are $75 tickets for sale on craigslist for this game. https://buffalo.craigslist.org/tix/d/buffalo-tennessee-titans-at-buffalo/7524342440.html She paid 1/3 last year so tickets are already in line with that she paid.

My review on these: The bbq is a very plain bbq sauce. This was the worst of the 3 but still a passable sauce. The mild sauce is decent. Exactly what you would expect it to be. A little thicker than homemade mild sauce so I didn't mind it. The hot sauce is pretty good. It's a thicker franks red hot with a very similar taste and I love franks. All in all they are cool for the novelty but none of them are must buys.

I've stayed completely away from this topic but I feel the need to correct this. I was a licensed massage therapist for more than 10 years in NYS. We are trained on proper draping techniques. The groin is not an area that is massaged. If you are referring to the inner thigh then yes it can be massaged however the draping is done very tightly under the leg so as to prevent exposure. If Watson is choosing to use a small towel, most massage therapists would decline as exposure would certainly be a risk. I do not know a single therapist that gives clients that option or really any option of draping. We have our own supplies including sheets for draping. Any exposure immediately puts us at risk of the client ruining our reputation or filing a complaint with the NYS office of professions. Licenses can and have been revoked for those situations. I really like your chef analogy in another post, it highlights the biggest red flag for me. Sports massage is a very specific type of massage. Swedish massage is what most people think of when they think of massage. A professional athlete would/should have a specific therapist they like to work with. Most therapists have regular clients as once you find a good therapist, people choose to continue to work with them. On top of that, the Texans likely have therapists on staff if he really was seeking treatment.

I put these elsewhere but I'll put them here: Giants will trade down a couple times from that 7 pick. Maybe 7 to 20 so Pitt can grab Willis and then 20 to 25 so Buffalo can get their guy. Conversely, If a QB NYG likes slides (Willis maybe) I could see Bradberry or Toney and their 2nd getting packaged for 25. I could also see Buffalo trading down if the draft fell with wrs and cbs flying off the board. Something like 25 and 57 for 32 and 34. I think Detroit waits until the end of round 1 but does grab a qb. I think Buffalo double dips on DBs this year like they did with DE last year. Maybe not round 1 and 2 but in the first 3 rounds. I think Carolina trades down from 6. I also think they end the weekend with either Mayfield or Pickett as the qb. I think Jameson Williams is still the first WR off the board. Adding a couple more: If Hamilton falls like Derwin James a couple of years ago the Bills will trade up for him (18 or so for the Bills to pull the trigger imo) I think Pickens ends up on the Chiefs. Character concerns don't bother them and the talent is undeniable. Don't know if this is bold but Tremaine and Poyer are both still on the team at the end of the draft. If anyone gets traded its Moss and/or Epenesa but I don't think any players get traded.
