I'm skimming through the recorded segments at WGR-550 for this morning's Jeremy and Joe show. There is nothing there indicating that they addressed this! Schopp and Bulldog spent quite a long time on this yesterday, and had a lengthy (25 mins?) segment with Tyler Duane himself. I wonder if someone got to WGR from the Bills and said "enough of this, take it easy for a while" and the lackeys at GR actually complied. It's incomprehensible to me that they wouldn't have spent a good bit of time talking about this today.] When you need to kill 4 hours a day talking Bills and Sabres, and then an article like this drops into your lap, it's a gift from God.

It's not that; tons of these guys have the mental disposition of a child. He just wasn't good enough for the team to put up with it.

You write this as if to suggest it's some sort of "bad" thing. You do realize it is not the media's job to engage in pro Bills spin, right? They have their own PR department for that.

This is 100% precisely how I have perceived him going back to the 13 seconds incident and having watched many things since. He strikes me as TOTALLY being that kind of guy...judging his actions from the outside. I guarantee you he's the kind of guy who can't be told anything, if it differs from his own personally held view. We all know these types. I'm currently in a "wait until this guy is gone" phase before I'm going to get fully excited about the Bills again. I am also in a "wait and see" phase with regard to Pegula SELLING THE SABRES before I will be able to get excited about them. I just want him to go away. In other words, pretty much standard operating procedure for a Buffalo sports fan.

Josh Allen is no different, and he dives every time he is touched.

Retaining McD for another year simply means Josh is yet another year older when we start over with a new coach and regime. Watch.

A ton of them do, and to a degree, you can't blame them. Most of the HC hires we have made going back over 50 years have been dog crap. Bills fans assume that is the way it must be, because that is the way it always was. They need to realize there is another way.

This thread is depressing.

Of course you do. You're a Bills fan. And when we lose out, you'll be asking yourself "Why did I do it again!?"

That's it McDummy, bring him in! And then let him do nothing AND get injured as we lose out the season... Make the record for firing you as strong as possible, please. Pegula isn't that bright. He will need help in this.

I remember a catch by Diggs, early in the year, in the open field but Josh threw the ball way too high and Diggs went way up and somehow got it. Thought it would be overthrown for sure. Anyone remember that one?

Only Americans call that a "Stein." In Germany, you drink beer from a "Krug." And they don't have Koalas on them. 🤷‍♂️

I hope it's an amount you can afford to lose.

This is one of those things fans discuss, because it's inflammatory to discuss. The reality is he's not going to be our next HC. This is just another thread about nothing.

This is just one more flaw with the team you can point to that reflects directly on coaching. McDermott is SO average in so many different ways.

Yep. I swear, most fans at this forum have a "life span" with the team that is about 1 week long. We fired the OC, have looked much better on offense 2 games in a row, won one, and should have beaten maybe the best team in the league...and so fans are back to thinking we are headed to the SB. If we lose in KC, for example, it will be over and everyone on the team will know that. If that leads to a collapse, and ugly finish to the season, the temperature will go up quite a bit, as you write.

Sitting Miller or losing him for the rest of the season is immaterial in my mind. He is terrible and doesn't warrant getting a roster spot on game days. My interest in this story begins and ends with, AND IF, we have the ability to terminate his K and get out of salary cap hell with what is a disastrously bad deal. That's the prize here. The remainder of the year is neither here or there.

Actually, the entire review/challenge system should be eliminated and go back to 1975. As you said, human error will never go away. The current system dramatically slows the game yet is FILLED WITH ERROR anyway. The game will never be made "perfectly Truthfully correct" with any kind of instant replay system... So get rid of it and we all live with calls on the field, and move on with our lives. That's the No. 1 thing I'd like to see changed about the game.

That's a great question. Plus, as far as I know about their family (which is almost absolutely nothing) it is the "other" daughter that is the big sports fan. The one who used to leak news on Twitter and what not until they locked her down, early in Pegula's ownership of the Sabres.

So then that includes the Bills, too, right? We should win in LA, for example, but that one jumps off the schedule at me as a game we'll drop.

Apparently it is well documented that there have been MANY such instances between these 2 going back over a period of years. It's a rather toxic relationship and these 2 probably should NOT be together. Amazing a guy like Von could be this stupid.

Watch this; pretty ugly fact pattern as outlined in the arrest warrant....

That's separate to the issue of whether his K can be voided for conduct of this type. The penalty under the personal conduct policy is 6 weeks suspension without pay.

Who's almost won a Super Bowl? Certainly not McDermott! Dude made it to once championship game and got pounded. He wouldn't know what a SB looks like.

People "close to Pegula" voicing opinions on what they think he will do is meaningless. There is always room for unexpected things. If McDermott is fired, presumably all 4 sources would tell the author "I tell you I am shocked that this happened! Shocked!" How the last 5 games look and go down could totally change the situation as well, and those 4 sources don't have crystal balls.
