I was asking what if... So basically you are just saying you think McD is not a top flight head coach and after 4.7 years of being an NFL HC based on your Armchair Head Coaching ability he should be let go if he doesn't immediately win multiple super bowls... It is just so interesting to me you want better after YEARS of garbage Head Coaches. We finally have one that is good but god forbid he makes a decision that goes against an Armchair Coach... Anyways, hopefully the Bills select the perfect Head Coach for you next go around. While I will just sit and watch and enjoy a winning football team and have so the last 5 years.

ok, so I am curious of a few things. One, how do you feel about Staley as a HC? he is quite aggressive in his decisions with a trending up QB.. But yet is 8-7 and on the verge of not making the playoffs again. two, who do you recommend to become the Bills HC if McDermott was fired today? You? since you seem to have all the answers on how a HC should make decisions. (im poking fun) If not you then who? Because I am pretty sure all top flight HC's already have a job and yes I include our own as top flight. Edited: one more question, you act like he had no input on selecting said top echelon QB and help him develop by.... oh yeah coaching and being a HC..... (oh we did go to the playoffs without said qb as well), they could have selected Josh Rosen.... So to the question. Which coach, without a top qb, continues to make the playoffs with an average QB? I know one, and that is John Harbaugh with Joe Flacco 2008-2017 but that is it and that was a different era.

Your example is kind of.... basic. Its like you think McD would never kick that FG. He would 10 out of 10 times. McD didn't get to the AFC Championship game last year, Playoffs 3 of 4 years, going on 4 out of 5 years, by constantly making the wrong decision that you are eluding too. He is not perfect but he is one of the top coaches in the NFL already in his FIRST NFL HC job. Most take multiple tries to be successful if at all.

You know - I will digress. I will enjoy finally having a coach that seems to know what he is doing regardless of "analytic people" saying other wise. Edited: Decided to delete previous post as it does me no good to continue the conversation. Happy Holidays

I feel judging a coach aggressiveness vs conservative in hindsight is unrealistic. It is easy to say after the results show themselves that a different decision should have been made. The same people calling for him to be more aggressive like he was yesterday would also be the same people complaining if we lost due to that said aggressiveness(not all, but some). Like Staley has hurt the Chargers by being too aggressive. For instance, 4-1, on the final drive, we don't make it. Regardless of play call, we do not get it or he goes for a FG and we miss, and the Pats then drive the field and score a TD and we lose the game. Those exact same people saying he needs to be aggressive, would say, well he should of punted and made them drive the whole field. Every coach makes game time decisions that can go either way and ONLY in hindsight is it proven right or wrong.

You are an interesting type of person aren't you? Not in a good way either. Lets see how many "Big Games" the patriots win without Tom Brady..... then lets chat.

Let's revisit this shall we... I mean we have this thread going for a while and I really want to hear what people that want him fired still have to say... @Wizard Still want him fired?

Tampa game is offset by the titants game this year..... Please just stop for the love of everyone else's brain

Same. I hate when they ask me how the night with Marshawn Lynch went on that night of drinking.

Same. I hate when they ask me how my appointment massaging Rex Ryan's feet went.

Same. I hate when they ask me how picking up trash on the side of the highway went.

funny thing is my wife asked today why I wasn't cheering/screaming about the game. Said I am saving it for next weekend lol. Lets hope Santa brings us a big fat W.

it is a W. Helps us in making the playoffs. That is all you can do. Win the next one and the playoff spot looks brighter.

I do not think it should have been thrown to be honest. But then again, last week when it mattered we didn't get a call that should have been called (diggs being held on 3rd and 2 in the end zone with 22 seconds left) so calls can go both ways. Even if the drive isnt extended we would have been up by 9 still. I am ok with that.

Oh they will, that is just how some posters are.... its exhausting a bit. As well as the fire McDermott shtick they keep doing.

I think that is the first time Josh had more than 3 seconds to throw. Insane how poorly the O-Line has been this game.

That is one of the dumbest things i have seen posted on this board. good job

you and anyone else can say whatever they want, and I am simply stating the value behind an opinion of someone with zero NFL experience is not worth much compared to those that actually have experience. So just deal with it..... yay good talk and thanks for the incite

Just curious of your credentials of assessing a HC other than drinking beer/wine/water or whatever and viewing everything in hindsight. Easy to say when you aren't the one on the sideline trying to make decisions based on feedback by multiple assistants in seconds time. I imagine you would be perfect in your real life job if this was the case correct? As you said, its your opinion, but I will leave assessing a HC job to the people that know what it takes to be a HC. Not a fan that does a normal 9-5 job and has no NFL coaching/playing/ or any NFL experience.

Maybe McDermott will be available for the Jaguars job if some of the posters had their way. then we can hire Meyer as our new HC Woooooo

As @Buffalo_Stampede mentioned. The grass isn't always greener just cause you hit a bit of a rough patch, though we still have a winning record and can still make the playoffs.

but but but...... the era must end cause wahhhhhhh

Haha ok big guy good talk. Keep on doing your thing. you know. I hope you get what you wish for and the bills fire McD and we get another 25 years of not winning anything…. Good luck on that

It’s not that you just say what you have to say and move on. It’s that you continue to post the same material like a nagging wife or gf. It’s exhausting. saying he needs to be fired after going to the afc championship is just…. Low iq stuff. I will keep thumbs downing because I don’t agree. So how about you just ignore my thumbing down. Yeah? sounds good. Good talk
