42-33-7 - 91 points last season. I think the Sabres like their coaching staff. This will be the year playoff hockey returns to WNY.

To all the Fire McDermott Posters, a follow up question..
Gregg replied to ChicagoRic's topic in The Stadium Wall
There was an article ranking the head coaches. McDermott came in at 11. 11. Sean McDermott, Buffalo Bills - McDermott has been the most successful -- and perhaps, only successful -- coach Buffalo has had since Marv Levy, but you get the feeling that the 49-year-old's seat might be a little warm. McDermott probably would get hired elsewhere immediately if dismissed by Buffalo, but if there's a third consecutive disappointing postseason exit in the midst of Josh Allen's peak, a new voice may be best for all involved. -

While the regular season record has been very good the playoff failures have been frustrating especially the way they have lost. Andy Reid had a lot of success with the Eagles, but he could never win it all with them. Philly moved on from Reid. The Bills moving on from McDermott would be very similar. -

7 years is a short leash? -

No guarantees but the way they were playing that year I think they would have gotten by the Bengals. Allen and the offense were unstoppable. But we will never know. -

Agree. Plus, it's not like McDermott hasn't been given a fair chance. This will be his 7th year as coach of the Bills. At some point you have to wonder if he is the guy to get them over the hump. If he fails, this year then I could see his seat getting warm. -

Look at Elway as an example. He didn't win a Super Bowl for the longest time (although he did get to and lose 3 of them) but the Broncos managed to build a team around him nearing the end of his career which allowed him to win 2 Super Bowls. The Bills have time to win with Allen, but I am not sure that McDermott will be the coach when they finally win a Super Bowl with him. -

If the season goes south for any reason, I wonder if Terry fires McDermott but retains Beane or he cleans house and gets rid of both of them. In the latter scenario Terry would probably need a consultant to come in and help him hire the new GM/HC. Or Beane will lead the search for the next HC assuming they do move on from McDermott. I can't see Terry leading the search for the next management team. Despite being the owner, he is a football fan not a "football man". -

Nope they need to be better. With McDermott calling the shots on D this will all come back on him now if they fail again -

Taron Johnson did have that 100-yard INT that sealed the win against the Ravens in the playoffs. -
What the Bills need to do to take the next step
Gregg replied to HaldimandBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
Better play at LOS on both sides of the ball. Last year in the Super Bowl both the Eagles and Chiefs had the #1 and #2 OL's in the league. The Bills were ranked #26. On defense they need to do a better job getting after the QB as well as stopping the run. -

Same. That was Moe, Larry, Curly stuff right there. Starting at their own 25 and they get into FG range. I wouldn't care if the Chiefs had 100 timeouts. It's still 13 seconds. You just don't lose in that situation. -

It definitely looked like it. The Bills shot themselves in foot. In the 2nd half the Dolphins had the momentum but the Bills still escaped with a win. If Tua played I am not so sure the Bills win. -

He was outcoached in both playoff games last year. If the Dolphins didn't have a scrub at QB then there is a decent chance they don't advance to play the Bengals. -

Maybe but I don't think he gets in on his first year of eligibility like Peyton who was obviously a slam dunk for the Hall. -
Eat Crow: Your most embarrassing Bills opinions
Gregg replied to Mikie2times's topic in The Stadium Wall
I wanted Josh Rosen and was upset the Bills took Allen. Thankfully Beane knew what he was doing because I sure as hell didn't. Not that my meaningless opinion matters anyway. -

Depends on the player. Eli won 2 Super Bowls and both against the evil empire, but I wouldn't call him a great QB. He was a good QB even a very good QB but definitely not an all-time great. It will be interesting to see if those 2 Super Bowls are enough to get him in the HOF. -

Bill went to 9 Super Bowls and won 6 of them with an elite level franchise QB. There isn't another coach in the NFL who is even close to that.

Hopkins released by Arizona (7/16: signed by Titans)
Gregg replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
They still have Mac Jones as the QB. Bills should sweep them. Actually, they better because sweeping the Jets and Fins will be tough this year. At worst I hope the Bills go 4-2 in the division.
