It all comes back to Von. They’d just watched the Rams go all in and get a trophy for it. Unfortunately it didn’t work out for the Bills. Now, the test will be what they do about it. The Rams seem to have fixed it pretty darn quickly.

If he has, he needs to do it again with a different guru! Because to date it hasn’t stuck. And….If he hasn’t he definitely needs to.

I’m all for it! We just call both names and see if Goodell notices! 👍

These webcams are generally provided by the Construction Team…in this case Turner, one of the largest companies in the world. They use them to promote their work and progress. Unfortunately on a project as large as an NFL stadium it’s hard to pick an angle whose sight line won’t get blocked by the actual building at some point. When that happens we typically ask them to move it every few months.

As you know, many businesses never reach the top and never will the Buffalo Bills if they keep thinking this ‘process’ nonsense is going to give them the answers. At this point in McDs reign it is nothing more than a cliche. Taking the final step is NOT about The Process. It’s about staying in the moment, at the moment of ultimate testing. I’m beginning to think the team needs something akin to a zen retreat, and then that guru needs to walk the sideline during playoff crunch time as a clear visual reminder of what they have hopefully trained their minds to do. Sounds a bit dum for sure but it’s what’s lacking from the entire roster and staff.

And you’ve clearly articulated why it isn’t working. They’re working on improving the wrong stuff.

I’d really love to hear what McD (or you) thinks he needs to ‘improve’ on. You seem to think he knows. I definitely do not.

So let’s shelve this discussion until next year. They cannot overhaul the entire roster in one offseason.

This seems like the wrong offseason to be bringing this up!

And that’s where it comes down to your definition of getting ‘better’…and where I believe you and I disagree. Many on here opine about if we can only load up on some mythical amount of talent, we’re bound to win. Nope. We can beat every other team including KC, with the talent we have. But, if at the moment of key decision and playmaking our talent has a brain cramp, it doesn’t mean squat….and it definitely hasn’t for the last three years. Rinse and repeat over and over again. The exhausting part for us fans is we have to wait entire year for the situation to present itself again only to witness the same head scratching failure.

Shaw….the problem isn’t one of personnel or the team being ‘good’, ‘bad’, or ‘not good enough’. You get ONE chance at the very end of the year, in the final quarter of the final game, and this version of the Bills has choked every year. Until this team (including the coaching staff) can learn to slow their heads and their heart rates down when everything’s on the line, we’ll see the exact same results. Unfortunately we and they have to wait eleven months to see if they’ve learned how. While I like the Colts analogy I cannot recall whether they were similarly afflicted during the Manning years.

We need more renderings.

It’s not rock but…. Oops I did it again.

Feel free to start a thread about the Carolina Panthers if you’re that concerned.

Does this same mindset apply only when we play the Chiefs? Because it sure as heck didn’t help when we lost to the Bengals last year. And most likely won’t when we face some other team next season. You HAVE TO be ready in the moment, regardless of the opponent….and under McD the Bills simply haven’t been.

Here’s a hint….it rhymes with POACHING

I’m not sure why it’s so difficult for some of you. Are the Bills good? You bet they are! Are they a Super Bowl winning team? Obviously not. Something has to change. And since we’re DEFINITELY not changing our QB for the next five years, minimum, I’m of the opinion that another significant variable in the equation has to change. And it’s NOT getting a new DT and WR in the draft, although that’ll be a good move. I’ll let you figure out for yourselves which other significant variable doesn’t impact our poor Cap situation.

Yep, that’s exactly what I said. 🙄

Where are you going with this? We’ve seen how this ends up now for years. As I said, enjoy the limited success…. I certainly have been. But it is what it is.

Just stop. Throw “it” away? Nope….but if we don’t throw the head coach away you better be ready for many more years of the same.

And you’re entitled to your opinion as well. Just don’t be surprised when it ends up exactly the same next year. Because….it will.

Youngster!

What’s different? The 49ers can get to the Super Bowl without going thru KC. The Conference concept cannot possibly that foreign to you. The only chance the Bills have is if Mahomes gets injured.

In the hunt. In the mix. Sure….why not? Just enjoy the season. The Bills will win some games and others they’ll lose. But as long as McD is in charge they’re neither winning nor going to a Super Bowl.

Never going to happen under McD. Just isn’t. Never.
