Ask a San Diego fan if firing Marty (who accomplished less than McD in the playoffs) was a mistake. Pretty sure Packers fans aren't clamoring to dump La Fleur.

They don't have Hill and Waddle. I would hope the plan VS the Ravens would alter next game, pending injuries. Chiefs are too well balanced; stick to the plan against them.

I don't really disagree but I also don't think that's mutually exclusive from my statement. QBs without a village fail. They don't put the village on their back and carry them to success. It's half the reason you see the Darnolds and Geno Smiths of the world.

I've seen enough of your essays previously. You can save the time and 500 words. I still don't even think we are that great this year. It's a reload with 1/3 of our cap chewed up on dead space. I'd probably have us 3rd or 4th in the AFC right now. I expect the '25 and '26 Bills to be better. I'll still hope for the best on any given Sunday and I'll still think firing McDermott is foolish.

Coaches fail at about the rate of a 6th round pick. I'm not going to throw away a pro bowler because he hasn't been all-pro yet. Odds are the next guy isn't as good.

With Tua back and Waddle and Hill to deal with, I think it was a 'lesser of 2 evils' situation. History has proven that coaches rarely have the patience to stick to the run. That said, Daquan looks nothing like last year and it's really hurting us.

Sounds hot.... Please do share haha

Not wanting to blow things up doesn't mean you don't want to win. That's a dichotomy that only exists in the minds of the anti-McD group. This all stems from the theory that; a) McDermott is below replacement level, with damn near any choice being equal or better and b) Josh is so good that almost nothing else matters. I disagree with both but I don't expect to convince you otherwise.

Who on earth is saying anything of the sort? There's a big gap between that and 'fire McDermott because he's so inept, the grass must be greener elsewhere'. We all want to win. Some don't want to throw out the baby with the bathwater because it hasn't happened yet.

You'd be hard pressed to find a personel executive that would put Purdy's talent over Herbert's. Situation matters. A lot.

If you're not 1st, you're last amirite? Silly. They've got the 2nd best win percentage in sports over the last 5 years. All sports.

Allen is discussed plenty in the article. I personally believe this prevailing attitude that only the QB matters and everything else just falls into place is nonsense. It takes a village, even when you have a QB. Plenty of good quarterbacks have crappy years on bad teams. Chicken or the egg scenario.

Some people have trouble with the truth. Especially these days.

https://www.si.com/nfl/bills-bond-on-and-off-the-field-paying-dividends-afc-east Good article on the foundations that have allowed the Bills to reload instead of rebuild. I think sometimes we are too close to the situation to fully appreciate what we have. For as much as people want to crap on McD, he's one of the best in the league and we'd be hard pressed to replace him with somebody equal, let alone an improvement.

Your ability to come up with endless unrealistic player acquisition scenarios is impressive. I wish I was that creative.
