    Hot take regarding McDermott and the end of games

    Let me start by saying that I'm not a "fire McDermott" guy. I think firing Dorsey or McD right now would be the worst possible thing for the bills. Anyway... 

     

    Lots of talk today regarding the hail Mary and the bills letting the bucs back in the game. I have somewhat of a hot take regarding the end of these games. Our last 3 games (giants, pats and bucs) the bills have somehow managed to let teams get in a position to win, and in the Pats case, they did win. We all know McDermott loves his timeouts at the worst times, but I think it's deeper than that. I'm starting to think McDermott calling defensive plays AND trying to manage the team under 2 mins is too much and/or too confusing. To his credit, that IS alot of responsibility. When the game tightens up at the end , maybe McD needs to either hand off defensive calls to someone else, or have someone else manage clock/timeouts. This trend is definitely new, and I feel like this could be part of the reason. The raiders, Washington and Miami game were all well in hand with 2 mins left. 

    Can I have some eggs and sausage with this hot take?

    Im normally a glass half full guy, but this just furthers my concerns.  Because that is the conundrum, we are barely beating or losing to the only weak teams remaining on our schedule outside Denver and Pats again (who we already lost to).  
     

    We should have won all 4 games by double digits, yet we still lost 2 and then barley held on and got lucky on last play of both wins.

    I hear ya. I am waiting on this "tough" stretch coming up. I think we do better than some expect here.

    2 things blow my mind about this team...can we return a punt without a penalty and can we defend a freaking hail mary? 

     

    If we are honest with ourselves, a case can be made we should be 0-4 in our last 4 games during our weakest part of our schedule if not for some luck on the final play of the Giants and Bucs game.  It is crazy how we put ourselves in these situations, especially in a game we should have won with a blowout but shot ourselves so many times in the foot this game that we allowed this hail mary attempt to even happen in the first place.

    Glass half full here. Let's acknowledge the good too. Hardy ran a punt return to their 25-30 yd line and we scored a TD not too long after. We can also make a case that we could be 4-0. Lost to the Pats on their last drive. We lost to the Jags by less than a TD after they got to spend 2 weeks in London to get acclimated to the time difference and no jet lag. We could easily be 4-0 in this stretch. JMO.

    That was Evans that shoved Poyer right to the ground, plain as day... Probably the worse in that scrum.

     

    Anyway. Could have offset and replayed down. 😆 

    did anyone see von get held like it was a wrestling match? right in front of the official and no flag.

    They aren’t trying to catch it. They’re trying for a pass interference call….which they CLEARLY should’ve gotten. 

    That’s true….but the Bills clearly were guilty. 

    evans did the same on that play. could have been offensive PI too.

    You really think we’re converting there?  The whole team including the offense goes into turtle mode at end of games.  

    yes.  because their punter kicked a 35 yard line drive that Harty caught on the run.  That was all Harty making a good play on a terrible punt. Nice try though 

    you're poo-pooing that play?!?!? even if you don't agree it's a great play, it was definitely a good play. definition of the lynch mob i'm referring to. that play helped win the game. but hey lynch mob gonna lynch mob.

    The drunk Bucs fan in a crazy pimp outfit sitting next to me in Section 108 row 1 agrees with you. He started screaming “I hate you Todd Boles” right up until the moment that it worked. BTW, just how many times are the Bills going to tip a pass just to have it fall into a receiver’s hand?

    The TD before the 2 point conversion hit the db's helmet and evans still caught it. sh it happens.

    No accountability.  It’s why his team is undisciplined and plays stupid.  Call somebody out for once! The punt return unit cost 45 total yards in field position on back to back punts.  Phillips shouldn’t be on team after that idiotic penalty.  

    one of the dumbest comments that gets regurgitated by complainers. we don't win without the punt return team getting a big return by Hardy that led to a TD. guess you forgot that one.

    But none are bigger idiots than the ones who remain steadfast in their praise of mcclappy

    nah, we're having a season that doesn't meet the squad's expectations so far. and they act like entitled babies. that's all that's happening here. everyone's SB pick(SF) just lost 2 in a row. scoring 17 points each game. I guess they should fire shanahan. another favorite here, who hasn't won a sb that I know of. ebbs and flow of a season. every team goes through a rough patch. we're a 1/2 game behind the phins for 1st in the AFCE. we beat them, so I count it as we're tied. phins can't beat a good team, guess mcdaniel needs to go too. another media darling(cowboys) has their share of issues too. ravens score 10 vs pitt and 19 vs the colts. every team goes through it. jags score 9 and 17 in consecutive losses. it happens. eagles lose to the jets, scoring 14 points and squeaked out a 3 point win vs washington(who we dominated). it happens. another darling(Lions) just scored 6 points in a blowout loss to the ravens. the lions scored only 20 vs the bucs the week before. lions score only 21 vs chiefs in a loss. ah, the immortal Ben Johnson. it happens. i'm sure they all have a site like this where idiots overreact too.

    The fact that there are still people defending mcdermott after last night is insane.  Almost everything that can go wrong will go wrong at end of games with him at the helm.  He chokes with his defensive timeouts and his team chokes.  Tampa had no business being in that game at the end and were a Godwin not turning his head around in time from winning.  We were a ref missed call away from losing to tyrod taylor and Mac Jones carves us up going 75 yards in 90 seconds.  There’s a reason we have largest point differential last 3 years and nothing to show for it.  The man chokes at end of games and so does his team.  

    The lynch mob is full of idiots.
