You’re gonna have to come to grips with that He has gotten us into the playoffs, despite all the personnel and game time decisions. He gets mad props for that, no question. It hinged on another team's 4th and 12 conversion to a TD with 50 seconds left. In that sitch, it's not "he's good, period". You're gonna have to come to grips with the fact that means luck was involved. Or not. Doesn't bother me one way or another, though I'm hoping McD will grow on the job to the point that there's not luck involved, next year!!!! Edited January 1, 2018 by Hapless Bills Fan

He was so bad against the Saints they were willing to start Nathan Peterman the next week. That's how bad Tyrod is.

If you said that starting Peterman was a bad move before it happened I can respect it. A few people on this board did and they were right. I just had the impression you were after the fact with the name and all. I guess all I really wanted was an appreciation of why he made the move. That's not gonna happen. Truth is the offense was offensive mostly all year and if your the type to ride out what you have and I'm the type to tinker. I can respect we have different views.

While I appreciate the fact that McCoach and our team are in the playoffs, I trust that the process continues and he is not a finished product because the odds were certainly against us making the playoffs by Andy Dalton converting a 4th and 12 for a TD against the Ravens in Baltimore.
Woodman19 Posted January 1, 2018 Posted January 1, 2018 This season bought Bean and McDermott a full 3 years beyond this year of Goodwill to implement their program.

Of course he isn't the finished product. He is a 1st year Head Coach and he has made some mistakes, no doubt. But the principles he has are the right ones, he is doing it the right way. 1

I just know this. Rex is a big talker, it's a big part of who he is in public. When a guy like that fails to deliver, when the defense regresses, and when he goes out and hires his twin brother to elevate the play to top defense in the league...it's fair to expect him to deliver. He didn't, and the bills moved on. McDermott delivered, at least for now. After a such a long time walking in football darkness, why not just let the sun shine on your face for the next week or so?

FOR 14 GAMES lol. That shows how bad every other quarter back on the roster is. Think about the abslute dumb logic you are spewing.

Dr. K Posted January 1, 2018 Posted January 1, 2018 I've had mixed feelings about McDermott but he has earned respect. I tip my hat to him. It will be fun to see what happens next.
Dadonkadonk Posted January 1, 2018 Posted January 1, 2018 He made lots of mistakes. If he truly evaluates this team, the Dennison must go.

It will be fun to see what happens next. McDermott is an enigma to me. He clearly has a lot going for him. We didn't have a great roster and yet we finished 9-7 and sneaked into the playoffs. But the people I know that know a lot of football agree that he makes horrible in game decisions. Repeatedly. I think so, too. The Peterman decision was awful. The choices of punts or field goals has been awful. The basic philosophies on both offense and defense have been extremely questionable. I love the guy for the Kyle Williams play I will never forget. But he seems to make a lot of good preparation decisions and a lot of bad in game decisions. A lot.
