I like our talent, but am concerned about this guy's ability in big moments and if he is the kind of coach that can battle with the best. Agreed. McD does a great job at having his defense prepared for opponents. But a great game day manager, he is not. I can’t think of one single game the past three seasons where McD clearly outcoached an opponent and we won a game we should have lost. Hopefully his game day management improves.
Happy Days Lois & Clark Posted May 8, 2020 Posted May 8, 2020 I don’t think Fromm will start over Allen, but Fromm does a good job at not turning the ball over. Allen’s 14 fumbles last season is a problem.
Mark80 Posted May 8, 2020 Posted May 8, 2020 Have you seen this guys teeth? Every time he is on ESPN I almost vomit when he opens his mouth. Mustard yellow with noticeable plaque build up that is visible on TV! So gross. I can't take him seriously at all. Plus his takes are always awful. So Boston.

Saxum Posted May 8, 2020 Posted May 8, 2020 It used to common for sports writers to bash opposing teams before bashing home team became popular as it has become in Buffalo.

Can't wait to own the Pats** twice this year. I mean, I’m a big Allen fan too. But c’mon man. Rarely turns the ball over? Interception wise he wasn’t that bad, but dude was constantly choking it up. 1

Here are some excerpts: https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/04/30/sports/worried-about-patriots-standing-afc-east-dont-be/ "How can Belichick be so Bird-like, cocky and calm, while the Patriot dynasty seems to be crumbling? I give you three words: Bills, Dolphins, Jets. Meet the New Tomato Cans. Same as the Old Tomato Cans. The Jets, Dolphins, and Bills are still Moe, Larry, and Curly. They are knuckleheads, porcupines, and lamebrains." "Have pity on those poor folks in Buffalo, Miami, and East Rutherford, N.J. They are naive, innocent, and foolish. The pathetic Bills Mafia and New York’s Fireman Ed actually think the Patriots are going to fall from their perch atop the AFC East this year." "The Bills went 10-6 last season and are the flavor of the month now that Brady is gone. Sorry. Not buying. Mistake-prone quarterback Josh Allen is not the answer. Allen is the Joe Kelly of NFL QBs and will lose his job to 167th draft pick Jake Fromm." "Meanwhile, based on what we saw from his choke job against the Texans in the playoffs in January, it’s safe to say that Bills coach Sean McDermott will dissolve whenever he looks across the field and sees the Hoodie. The Bills over the Patriots? I don’t think so." Who cares what a troll says about the Bills.This guy has always been a joke.

Hopefully his game day management improves. Kansas City, 2017, coaching against Andy Reid, his former mentor. I'd even go as far to say beating Pittsburgh, in Pittsburgh, in Prime time this year. They out schemed and out prepared the Steelers. Remember Renegade?

Hopefully his game day management improves. At Kansas City and Atlanta in 2017. At Minnesota in 2018. At Dallas in 2019. If you want to argue there have been worrying moments where he has been comprehensively outcoached by good coaches, Belichick in the 2nd game last year (McDermott coached the first game well enough to win that was 100% on the players IMO), Pederson last year, Payton in 2017, Reich in 2018... then fair enough. But to say there are no games where McDermott has outcoached an opposite number with a more talented team is just flat wrong. 1

GreggTX Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 Well, Josh was 2nd in the NFL in fumbles, but behind only league MVP Lamar Jackson. I'm always critical of Allen, but he can still become a better passer and I don't see Fromm taking his job. That just shows why this guy works at newspaper and not for an NFL team.

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 Imagine how good Fromm would have to be to start over Allen? I know it’s not going to happen but there’s no way Bills fans should be angered by the premise. If Fromm somehow won the starting job, despite it not even being a competition....it would mean the guy is probably going to be a super star. It also would mean we have 2 young, financially controllable qbs, we could win with.
wppete Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 Boston, the worst city in America hands down. Miserable people, miserable people. 1 1
JetsFan20 Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 This particular reporter has been a troll/click bait artist for years. I think he once called the AL East race over after 30 games (Red Sox ended up not winning the division so he was wrong).
Thurman#1 Posted May 10, 2020 Posted May 10, 2020 (edited) I disagree, strongly. But it remains a reasonable take From a New England-centric POV till one of the three AFC opponents proves themselves by bloodying the Pats nose. If I were a combative Pats fan I'd say much the same thing. The Bills still have a lot to prove. But this FO has showed itself smart since day one. They've made mistakes. But far fewer than most. On 5/9/2020 at 6:09 AM, Limeaid said: It used to common for sports writers to bash opposing teams before bashing home team became popular as it has become in Buffalo. Both have been popular forever. But the reason home team-bashing has been popular for about twenty years is that we've been mediocre on a level of consistency that was kind of remarkably sad. The people criticizing the Bills were dead right. Lately the Buffalo media has started to turn. Not because they're jumping on the bandwagon. Simply because McDermott and Beane look like they're getting it right. Acknowledging that makes sense. Edited May 10, 2020 by Thurman#1 2
