Fans that think Sean McDermott is the best or the worse are not changing their minds very much.
Personally, I think he is an above average HC, but that's me. He's got some issues but nothing I believe is a detriment to the organization.
I do believe that his "loyalty" runs too deep. I can give a bunch of examples but the most recent (this year) is the Special Teams.
Matt Smiley has been with the Bills since 2017. I can only say with the emphasis that Beane and McD give to ST's, IMO he has underperformed.
I don't expect to see a change next season. It's an example of what I think is his greatest fault.
ST's lost the Jets game and the Broncos game this season. If anyone thinks that a HC's responsibility is to assign players to defend a FG,
I can tell you it isn't. I won't even comment on the KC playoff loss. It seems to me that the ST has slowly regressed since Smiley took over in 2022.
The funny thing is, if McD attempts to "upgrade" the coordinator job, those wanting him gone will just say he is trying to save his job by
swinging the axe.
