She had a point.

I read it end to end. I believe every word and it's damning. He gets called out as an lying, uptight, insecure micromanager who undermines everyone around him to protect his own shortcomings.

Starting to think this is the root of the problem. Calls have gotten so bad I'm starting to wonder.

82 percent of people want the coach who ended a 17 year drought, and has choked in every meaningful game since he's been here gone

I’m very sorry you feel that way. Most fans I talk to either agree or can understand why someone would see it that way. really appreciate your contribution though.

No, I want him gone but if my only choice is keep both or none yes I want Allen no matter what.

The Military is accountable to the public but that's not really the point I was making. In general there are a lot of analogies made between the military and football. It's a strategic game, it's violent, requires a lot of discipline and there is a hierarchy structure much like rank. After that I think the comparisons very from strained to completely stupid, but I digress. My point is simply about leadership. The best leaders I have ever been around or worked under make it clear through example that it all applies to them too. We are all under the same umbrella. McD has in fact made this his "brand". We are all accountable to each other. I have worked under this structure in practice and quite frankly when done sincerely these are the people you would lie down in traffic for. These are the people that stand up first even though they are in charge and say "THAT WAS ME, I screwed up, I will learn from it and it will not happen again". I cannot stress how hard it is to truly humble yourself that way but when your brand is "accountability" this is the only way it can work. The quickest way to lose the room is to be a hypocrite or seen as a hypocrite on this. The moment the "troops" see you carving out an exception for yourself, it's over. Your credibility is lost forever and can never bee fully restored. IMO Sean crossed this line with 13 seconds and crossed it again this week. The damage is done.

You had me to this point. Yes that sounds insane, like WTF could possibly bring a fan of an NFL team to say something this insane. It took us 20 years to find a QB and you want to trade him? I don't care if we change coaches every year till the end of time but you DO NOT TRADE A FRANCHISE QB in his prime.... ever.

Those I see as platitudes. He’s hiding under “we all have to get better” he says it starts with me but when HE specifically screws up he hides from it. Subtly blames everyone else and tells the media it’s not the time to talk about it.

McD preaches “accountability”, it’s his brand. Funny thing there is whenever it seems like he needs to be accountable though he ducks responsibility (at least publicly). After 13 seconds it wasn’t time to talk about it. He wanted to keep it in house. He pulled the same line yesterday, it’s never time to talk about anything that reflects badly on him or his coaching. “The process” is another thing. It doesn’t seem to apply to him. He is as bad a game day manager in year 6 as he was in year 1. Timeouts, clock management, challenges etc. so learning from our mistakes is not for him. Im not a football coach but I was a Marine. I know what leadership looks like. I would imagine watching him throw the offense under the bus to the press the last 2 days while praising his defense and even throwing in the injury’s to prop himself up goes over about as well as a screen door on a submarine. I’ve lost faith and seen enough of his shtick personally. Ultimately it’s up to Terry but I don’t think we will get to the mountain top with him at the helm.

This article is spot on and I'm glad others see it. Sean McDermott has been choking the offense every time he inserts his philosophy into it. I believe, he believes he is doing the right thing but it's not.

I would take it step further and say in 2021 during the offensive lull I wonder if McD got his way. I could see Daboll telling him to pack sand toward the end of the year and opening things back up. Under this scenario not only did McD choke away our best shot at a SB in 30 years he damn near derailed the season. They clearly hate each other, and in case it's not already obvious I am FIRMLY on team Daboll. I would have kept him and let McD walk. Would have been super controversial but worth it.

He is becoming John Murphy. I have wondered for a while if he can be impartial at all. He rides the team plane, as the sideline reporter the Bills help pay his mortgage. He gets short with anyone that isn't "it's gonna be fine". He just won't accept there are problems.

I can't believe they are going to make me watch the Giants. Trash game

I don't love all the OP's points but this is terrible argument. He does in fact seem to keep making the same mistakes. I'm not hung up on team discipline but he doesn't seem to know how to close out tough games. Defensive TO's, 4th down management, TO management in general. I think he is a terrific head man during the week. He prepares his team well. His defense has been great for the most part. He is a horrible game day coach. He makes the easy things hard. Yes he has all the things listed above but if he was better at this stuff wouldn't it be even higher? We have never been the one seed. Great we won 12 games but needed to win 13. Usually those losses can be pinned back to an issue that was in the coaches control. I fear we will never get there under him. It's tragic because we are so close, but he is consistently the weak link.

Giants/Commanders should be on Fox. They moved the game to CBS and completely Eff over the Albany area. Nobody wants to see that trash game.

I have no time for fans that just can't see faults. If you can't see there are real issues I don't know what to tell you. All the stats you listed are down from the Miami game. If the goal is to be consistently better than average we are certainly on our way. But if you want to win a SB we need better. We can't keep pissing away our opportunities year in and year out. This window won't be open forever.

Oh, 100%.

He did and he is. He was by a wide margin the best player on any Bills team of that era.

The pick was on him. He had one on one, gave up on the route then didn't play defense. This is the reason they don't want to extend him. He's just not consistently good.

Your probably taking this all to personally. It's a little weird

I watch it

He’s not a fan.

This has nothing to do with the fans. Spikes tweeted he left the game cuz his accommodations sucked. From my perspective it’s bush league and make the Bills look inept. They make the east things look hard. Spikes is an “honored guest” and is put in a corner room with no view. It’s weird.

LEAVE BRITTNY ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sniff
