CanadianFan Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 McDermott is now looking about as weak a coach as any. Didn't sell his decisions. Didn't make any adequate adjustments in game or from week to week. Can't admit when he screws up. Doesn't seem to have confidence of the team at the moment. I KEPT waiting for him to show me that he can make adjustments when things go south. Those are all hallmarks of good coaching. I'm still waiting. As nice a man as he is, he is perhaps about as ready as Peterman for his job.

buffalobloodfloridahome Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 We can all look at this negatively. But, maybe this lights a fire under Tyrod, maybe he was sitting there thinking he was untouchable and this was the rude awakening he needed to get out there and be hungry and take shots downfield. Similar to the end of last year when he was trying to show what he was capable of.

The fact it was worse then anticipated and comedically inept was the whipped cream and cherry on top. Not sticking up for Petermans terrible performance but the coaching staff did absolutely nothing to help out a rookie QB in his first start against a superior pass rush and quality defense. As much as Peterman stunk I blame the coaches more. Peterman was put into a no win situation.
BuffaloBaumer Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 This team is in full on joke mode. Let's play for today....no, let's play for the future...wait, let's play for today again! This team blows so why not start the guy who will probably get cut anyway? Afraid of losing the team? These losers did this to themselves weeks ago and now there is not good reason at all to watch them....
SaviorPeterman Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 This is honestly the right move, and might be a good thing for both QB's both in the short and long term. I still think we'll see NP again this year but might as well see if Taylor can show something different against a terrible Chiefs defense. Believe it or not this game is winnable although in the end I still expect another loss even if it's not by 20 - 30 points.
yungmack Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 At this point, who cares? It's like fighting over who gets to be captain of the Titanic after it hits the iceberg. 1 1 1

Like I said, they played like crap two weeks before the change. If they didn't like it they should have played better. I really shoud not make this comment but your post made me think of it Funny how we hear Team Wins, Team Losses, except for one small item. how poorly or well the QB plays behind the OLine and whether or not his initials are TT Edited November 22, 2017 by ShadyBillsFan
Big Gun Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 As of right now today, this coaching staff is a joke, from Beane right on down. Hope it gets better because I can't imagine the Pegulas are a okay with how this looks on the surface. I have to believe TPegs didn't think things would rival the previous circus under Rex.

The Jets had 10 points in the first half, to the Bills 7. You guys act like the game was already over before halftime, when each of those was well within reach. It wasn't until the second half when the defense started to get tired that things went south. In each of those games, the opposing team had the time of possession advantage. In fact, the Saints had double the time of possession. I'm not saying blame Tyrod for the defenses poor performance, but when people say "Tyrod didn't give up 47 points." I think that's a BS state because he was a major contributor to the Saints game. Let me try this another way... the Bills offense is 24th in 3 and outs per drive. The Jags offense is 22nd in 3 and outs per drive. Why isn't the Jags D tired and giving up 30 to 40 ppg? The reason is because their defense is good and the best in football right now at getting off the field on third down. Our defense is the worst at getting off the field on third down because they are bad. Edited November 22, 2017 by Scott7975 1

I understand that those are competing priorities, but they are not mutually exclusive as some in the media and here suggest.

But he might not have lost the lockerroom and again, I'm concerned about their overall player evaluation skills. How does Ducasse look against the live bullets? Really? He's had to deal with the Oline all year long. It simply took a pocket passer with limited mobility to show how much Taylor had been covering up due to his ability to scramble. Kinda sad that it took Peterman getting killed to appreciate Taylor's ability to 1) escape pressure and 2) not turn the ball over very much.

NP was not a world beater coming out of college so I, personally, wan't shocked he struggled so much.

I think Marrone would have stuck with Peterman because he's too stubborn to admit a mistake. And that's why I'm coming around to McD's decision. He's a first year HC, mistakes are going to happen. I can accept that as long as he grows from them. Surely we will see Peterman in action again some time as well. Hopefully he also grows from his experience. 2

You oversimplify the play to win notion. Taylor is not a consistent winner. IMO the job of the coach is to consistently win by improving the play of the team. Tyrod has hit a ceiling and other teams have recognized it.

Peterman was put into a no win situation. you don't start your rookie on the road (on the west coast no less), against the league's best pass rush. that move alone reflects extremely poorly on McD in many ways. honestly, he isn't putting either qb in the best position to win.
