Equivalent to our Bills addiction, similar outcomes, so it fits.

Great news for all the "but the injuries" McDermott apologists! One more year for him and Beane! -
What does "Complementary Football" mean in Bills Coachspeak?
DrDawkinstein replied to Chaos's topic in The Stadium Wall
So, first and foremost, it is COMPLEMENTARY, not complimentary. Not trying to be a grammar nazi but they are two very different things and if youre looking to define "complementary football" it helps to have the right one. Compliment Definition: To praise, admire, or express approval. Complement Definition: To complete, enhance, or make something perfect. In Complementary Football, if each unit is executing properly then they should enhance the other units and make their jobs easier. Like the old saying "the best defense is a good offense" and vice versa. That's literally all Complementary Football comes down to. Offense should play in a way that not only achieves their goals but makes the game easier for the defense. Score points, long drives, run the ball. Defense should get the ball back and in good field position. Probably a mix of 2 and 3. With the "something else" being "I need to say something as a head coach so will just use this buzzword catch phrase and the media will get their sound bite" -
New all time bust? He's barely Beane's worst pick with Elam, let alone Cody Ford and Boogie Basham.

Remaining Schedule, how will this play out?
DrDawkinstein replied to zow2's topic in The Stadium Wall
Im going by the old saying "When someone shows you who they are, believe them" and this team has shown they cant win on the road. Even against horrible teams. So with that... @Pittsburgh- Loss vs Cincinnati- Win @ NE- Loss @ Cle- Loss (because that's who this season is going) vs Phil- Loss (we will get bullied up and down the field) vs NYJ- Win The only one I'm 50/50 on is Cleveland. So we're either 2-4 or at best 3-3 the rest of the way. -
The confused/angry look on McD's face when they cut to him after that failure of a play said it all. He either has no clue what is happening, or doesnt understand it. He is NOT a Championship Caliber head coach.

A Few Thoughts about the Texans Game - Community Edition
DrDawkinstein replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall
Great write up, @Virgil. Unfortunately, at this point, there isnt much left to say. It's all the same *****. Losses to the Falcons, Dolphins, and Texans in this season where the #1 seed was just waiting for us to take it is completely unacceptable. 20 frickin points in the first half to Davis frickin Mills. A complete travesty by McD and crew. Unfortunately, I'm going full into college football until these jokes are canned. All of us Bills fans deserve better than this. -
The buck stops at the HC. Any other HC with a lick of football acumen would be fixing this. McD isnt able. He looked just as lost and confused last night as the players.

Happy 66th Birthday to Nervous Guy!

Happy Birthday, NG!! -
Tackling has definitely been a huge issue. That's no secret. Which is CRAZY to me since it is the basic foundation these guys would have learned since they were 10 years old. And I refuse to believe all these players made it from highly rated High School recruits through D1 College Programs and drafted to the NFL without knowing how to tackle previously. Something in the coaching or scheme has these guys twisted up. Whether they are being coached to be too aggressive and not break down, or the scheme is confusing and they are just out of place and therefore taking bad angles, or what... When an entire defense of players who made it to the pro ranks cant seem to tackle, I look up the ladder. But it's all of them. And we know that McD runs some of the lightest contact practices/camps. So I can't absolve the coaching of anything. If it was 1 or even 2 guys blowing all the tackles then maybe. But when it's seemingly everyone, everywhere...

They've been in so long (few years) they finally made it to the 60 year old millionaires and therefore are on their way out. -

Good to see that no matter what happened between him and the Raiders he still goes to the barber with Mark Davis.
