Mr. WEO Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 Nate Peterman, Kelvin Benjamin, Sammy Watkins and others questioning everything right now.... 1
LSHMEAB Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 There's really NOTHING to criticize here, although the positive extrapolations are a bit extreme. With the weather/small market issues the Bills face, it's absolutely vital that the GM/HC do everything in their power to make Buffalo an appealing destination. McDermott seems to do a great job "inspiring" men and fostering a positive environment. That much is self evident. Results are really the only thing that matter, and McD has eked every single win possible out of his rosters ALL 3 seasons in Buffalo. While I question the importance of "culture" and all of that jazz, the proof is in the pudding. While the draft is the lifeblood of the team, I do think it's important for the Bills to acquire some top end talent via FA'cy. If this helps, that's great.

The following Tuesday, the team made sure via Chris Brown that people heard McD's comment to the offense about playing fearless. It was designed to push the problem off onto the players and away from the staff. And it worked when fans ate that up with a fork and spoon. McD doesn't say or do anything without intention. But statements like this only go so far and are well short of what it takes to build a roster that can win in the post-season. Something he's not been able to finish - yet. Have another drink

Idk what I even ate yesterday You showed a great fondness for kohlrabi and turnips. Kohlrabi burger with turnip fries. On topic, we just KNOW what McDermott said is gonna be trash-talking points any time someone gets a play on our D, right? "Hey, that your best version?" 10 hours ago, Heitz said: I've gotten dumber than a caveman from some of these comments.

I mean, those were the guys who managed to cook mammoth steak after killing with sticks-n-stones (literally) then cook the steak on a fire started with punk wood and sinew. Your ancestors musta passed, but prolly on their IQ test, you'd flunk out.

See I think while there is some truth to the small market/ weather thing, I think it completely overblown. What good FA have we really lost out on because of those things? Why doesn’t Miami and San Diego before LA get every FA? The nfl is so different than other leagues because of the length of the players careers. They want money first, then winning, and then the other stuff. also, if things go south here, I could see McDermott being a really good college coach. 13 hours ago, Buffalo716 said: If you are a defensive player and you want to reach your potential You should seriously consider coming here McDermott is a defensive guru. I have no doubt his scheme is a genuine masterpiece and is a well oil Machine I 100 percent agree with this. Defensive players excel under SM.

Jrb1979 Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 While culture and Blue Collar maybe important to Mcclappity and a lot of you older Bills fans. You still need talent to win. I would take a "diva" WR who puts up over 1200 yards a season over a guy like Beasley any day. 1
Royale with Cheese Posted February 28, 2020 Posted February 28, 2020 15 hours ago, BillsVet said: Then why didn't McD make that statement last year? A year when they had every intention of being aggressive in UFA? A year when expectations were going to be high? I get that most fans aren't capable of putting themselves in McD's position and their proclivity is to laud anything the team does. My belief is McD said this because he's entering the fourth off-season as HC and this year is critical to his rebuild. He also knows the schedule promises to harder than the 3rd easiest in the NFL. He recognizes a need for more talent and they've got money to spend even if they re-sign Tre, Dawkins, and Milano. He also knows that many of his contemporaries are or close to getting to the SB. McD ain't a surface-level thinker like a lot of fans are.
