Stop being a moron. We won the game. The great pass by Webb, great catch by Thompson, and great run but McCoy were all luck? Right.

Looked to me like we got the right result scooter.

Jesus took a lot of chances, and never backed down. McD could stand to learn a bit from Christianity. We certainly didn’t go Old Testament on Gronk.

Listening to his post game presser and watching many games this season I had to posit where does his decision making come from?

 

In other words does he make decisions based upon facts-data or a belief system that is rooted in conviction coming from religious belief? 

 

Sean McDermott is a devout Christian. I’ve listened to many interviews where he is outward in professing Christian faith.

 

I’m curious, today on 4th & 1 down 7 in the 4th quarter did McDermott make a decision with confidence knowing he has a better statistical probability to win the game going for it as opposed to attempting a 50 yard field goal?

 

It appears that McDermott is making decisions based on ‘conviction’ as opposed to  scientific ‘data’.  

 

In the modern NFL game we see leading franchises make decisions based on scientific analytical data such as a win probability calculations. 

 

Perhaps McDermott can learn to put his faith in game theory and data moving forward. 

 

Looking forward past this season does McDermott want his franchise QB to be a Christian? Is that a prerequisite? Nathan Peterman seems to fit this mold. He grew up outside of Jacksonville home of Tim Tebow, and has outwardly professed his Christian faith. 

 

I have nothing against faith, but is faith blinding McDermott from making the right decisions to guide this team?

 

Your psychological profile of McDermott is that he's Christian, so he's bad at math, therefore can't coach?  

 

This is the dumbest !@#$ing thing I've read all day.

Yup!

Here we go, they coming out of the woodwork! We lost to the Patriots simply because they have more talent at this time!  Honest, it's very simple!

Romo , when the game was lost in the fourth Quarter ,said that the coaching in Buffalo was on the right track and they are going in the right direction. I am sick of the coach bashers , as if they could do what is required in the situations that the coaches face. Hindsight is all the bashers can do . Some of the decisions are right and some are wrong. I'll stick with Romo. I think he know's a heck of a lot more about football than most of us.

[Mikie2times]

Most statistical evidence suggests even the most bold HC's should be going for it more on 4th down. I blame god for these spineless decisions.

He's no Doug Pederson.

I'm done with McDermott until he hires a game management specialist to make his decisions for him that are based on statistical analysis and not gut instinct.

.

His decision today was moronic.

He makes decisions on a "as you learn" process.........he's making it up as he goes.

 

You know, cause he's learning as he goes.

 

Isn't this exactly what you look for in a HC of a professional franchise?

His faith scares the hell out of me, but I don't think it relates to his pay calling.

 

He is definitely NOT looking at statistical data/probabilities in making his decisions, but I don't think that's a matter of faith; that's a matter of him being a traditional football guy.

 

What makes your post all the more scary is that Pegula is another hardcore religious kind of guy.   If they are planning some sort of Christian tower of power, and picking players based on how well they fit into that, we are screwed.

Do some of these moron out of the woodwork posters today realize the the Bills are operating with the worst depth of talent in the entire league besides Cleveland? And it isn't really close.

Do they realize that this current semblance of an O-line couldn't pass protect for anyone but TT, Cam, Watson and Wilson in this league?

It is bloody amazing we are 8-7.

No D-line depth, little LB talent, Very little WR talent, tragically thin at RB.

A decent but flawed QB with a completely inexperienced backup.

Basically a good secondary and a pretty good running game is our only claim to fame.

It was still the wrong call, despite winning.

 

As a caller on the post-game show said: "You can walk blindfolded across Sheridan Drive (LOL) and safely make it to the other side without anything touching you.  That doesn't make it the smart thing to do."

 

To the OP:  a lot of posters at this site struggle with 5th grade grammar/spelling and see no distinction (apparently) between "their", "there" and "they're".

They are not going to understand why you are right or why McDummy is wrong when he goes with his gut or whatever he does go with when he makes these decisions.

 

He should never have punted in the Indy game and he should NOT have attempted the 50 yard FG today.

 

He doesn't get it, not because of his faith, but because he's not that bright and comes from a traditional football background, where most guys do not get it or rely on probability theory in their coaching philosophy.

You understand absolutely nothing of the OP's post or what he is discussing.

You can't argue with math.  You are on the wrong side of this.

 

At some point you'll figure that out.  Or maybe you won't.

 

You'll still be wrong.
