He'll take a cushy broadcasting job that will pay him double what any coaching job would pay. He aint moving to Buffalo.

Cant even move it to PPP, it's going straight to 4Chan

Cant re-write history a couple years later hiding behind one stats screen, fam. We all saw it, we all were here discussing it in real time. It was then, and forever will be, a coaching botch game. It was a MAJOR tipping point for me as someone who was an ardent McDermott supporter to starting to see the flaws and becoming a McDermott skeptic. The memories of that night are still clear. There were plenty of questionable coaching calls against an inferior opponent. He's the one who fired Russ, Rex, and Whaley and hired McDermott. His approach to the Bills is a complete 180 from how he handles the Sabres. So, while I'm not 100% confident he'd make the right hire, I'm willing to risk it.

Bad moment for sure. I dont think that one cost us the playoff standing since it was the Dorsey year and we ended up 11-6, so plenty of bad losses that season to blame.

Wow congrats! You hit the Dogwhistle Bingo coverall!

McDermott botched managing the game clock the last 2 drives of the game, then with the game on the line somehow had 12 men on the field for the FG the Broncos missed, giving them another chance from 5 yards closer, and they hit the winner. It was a poor showing from the coaches. The numbers dont tell the story of in-game situations. Look at that TOP difference even though we had bigger numbers. The Broncos controlled the game and kept it close against a far superior opponent. Thats coaching.

1. Won a Super Bowl already 2. Even when saddled with a hapless Russell Wilson and a crappy roster, out-manuevered and out-coached McDermott in 2023, leading the Broncos to a last second win over the Bills. 3. Has the Broncos winning and relevant again with a lesser roster and Bo frickin Nix at QB. No one can say he is coasting on talent in Denver. That team is clearly being coached up while they beat the likes of the Eagles. While the Bills and Josh Allen are winning in spite of McDermott too many times, and are now losing as they show up unprepared, undisciplined, and unmotivated.

Oh sure, the Browns are a dumpster fire, and will be as long as Jimmy Haslam is calling the shots. Pretty much any criticism anyone can say about the Browns is valid and correct. Have 2 of the best WRs in the league. Call quick slants. Also have coaches that identified Pittsburgh's trend to bracket WRs, and have a plan in place for when they do. They managed to have Flacco prepared for that situation in mere days (hours really), and he hits the big shot to Iosivas the one time they do it. We have no WRs, no slants, and no one is prepared for what the opposing D does...

Rough morning in Cleveland.

omg...

"Josh is obviously rattled and having a bad game. Better pull our 2nd best player for the entire 4th quarter and squash our own running game. That should help the QB" -Bills coaching, apparently.

I dont think Kraft is that smart, but he does seem to be that lucky.

Is it not on Brady to have him prepared to read the Falcons defense and their tendencies correctly? Yes, the bulk is on Josh, and maybe they did review it and Josh still made the mistake. But when I see so many players looking lost, including our MVP QB, some of that rolls to coaching and preparation.

The Pats also have $55M in cap space compared to our $3M...

And I dont disagree with any of that! The only "good" thing we have going towards that is that the defense needs a complete overhaul and new players anyways, so we either rebuild it to this lame scheme or to a new scheme.
