CLTbills Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 I'd really like to talk with the 5 people that have picked "C" so far.
frostbitmic Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 3-0 says it all for me ... I give him an A I want see a lot of clapping tomorrow from McD and a lot of scowling from Belichick. Some Tawmy tears would be nice too. 1

I like what Beane and McDermott are doing, and they are rebuilding the team much like Polian did in the 1980-90's. The Bills had Jim Kelly and of course the Bills have Josh Allen. What we are seeing here is a Bills team that is suddenly unfolding. Another poster said something to the effect that the Bills are going to be good...yet they already are. The Polian era Bills did the same thing. 1

I know... Time starts now. Lets live in the moment. The Bills are moving forward with Allen. 1

LSHMEAB Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 I fully believe the Bills have the right coach. More sold on him than any of the other major figures in the org. 2

Right on! Brady was a 6th rounder...Marino rotted until the end of round 1. What is that old saying? "Listen son, try not to live with regret!" 1
ILBillsfan Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Can't argue with three and ohhhhhhh baby... Only some minor tweeks and this is a no brainer ...end of half there have been opportunities for a bit more aggressive plays to score that I do not think have been properly managed and played a bit close to the vest......And I think this has also fed a bit inot the poor second half starts on offense that with the leads we take the foot off the gas a bit too much and would like to see them not play scared. I think he has done a terrific job of getting this team in a great team mindset and has them ready to play every week. The Bengls waz a perfect trap gme with the patriots on the schedule the next week and they were clearly focused on that weeks opponent.

One more good draft, a few strategic fa signings, Josh Allens progress and this team should be fully realized. Edited September 28, 2019 by Rocket94 1

When's the last time the Bills had a coach whose team's didn't find a way to LOSE close games? That goes a long way in my book. Not that I've written one even intend to write one. 2

Crippling Penalties are way down. The team seems always ready to play. He’s a smoldering fire who encourages the players. Obviously missing so far are the horrible blowouts that have plagued him his 1st 2 years. I gave him an A also. He is really in tune and the players have bought in.

McDermott's teams are those kind of teams that won't go away when you are playing them. You have to beat them soundly in most facets of the game. This team is just getting started, and like I said this whole process is happening right now! 1
Dr.Sack Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 I gave McD a B. Partially for the slow start week 1 that nearly cost us the game, the bad 3rd Qtr in week 2 & week 3.

Other than that, he's done a really good job,. ball control is part of the game, when the defense is tired. 17 minutes ago, Rocket94 said: Agreed.

This team is just getting started, and like I said this whole process is happening right now! I gave him a B. just to motivate to work harder ! He has built one hell of a team and team philosophy. seems they are All buying in. and its a solid foundation showing the benefits already never give up trust the Process, stay focused and do your job and good things will happen. Bills currently, are one of the most focused team i have ever watched closely. well done McBeanes 1
