If you expect your team to never loose a game, then sport isn't for you -- maybe try video games where you can restart the game when you don't get the result you wanted. This is a dramatically improved team that's 4-2 and leading the division by two games. We'll only know if this team has lived up to our expectations at the end of the season. 9-7 lifting the Lombardi trophy is always better than 14-2 losing in the first round. 1

I am not going to stop watching . . . and I also will continue to be an independent thinker when it comes to the Bills and Sabres (and everything else). P.S. Where did I say that we should blow things up in the middle of the season?!?! Edited October 20, 2020 by Peter

Cool, still doesn't change the fact that McD or Beane aren't and shouldn't be going anywhere unless we lose out the season.

Again, I never said that we should blow things up in the middle of the season. I just have never been very impressed with McCoach since his arrival. I hope I am wrong.

Fire everyone. Cmon man. The Bills were physically destroyed the last two weeks. Outside of the Jets and the worst offense in modern history this defense has been terrible.

They also should’ve have had him sacked in Milano/Neal didn’t go for a knockout hit. The team lost because Allen and the offense couldn’t generate any points after the half. The point about QB’s isn’t accurate. They played great against Lamar who was red hot at the time. Limited Baltimore to 24 points. Hardly a shredding. Edited October 20, 2020 by JohnNord
SirAndrew Posted October 20, 2020 Posted October 20, 2020 (edited) I’ve always said I’m a big McD fan, with the exception of his conservative nature. I will admit I’m less thrilled this season because the defense has struggled. Coaches start to lose me when their alleged area of expertise isn’t performing well. Edited October 20, 2020 by SirAndrew

Defense choked a 16 point lead away with just over a quarter and a half to play. Offense scored a FG to force OT and defense choked in OT. 2
DuckyBoys Posted October 20, 2020 Posted October 20, 2020 defense has been terrible since the Houston meldown 1
Big Gun Posted October 20, 2020 Posted October 20, 2020 Way too often McD is out coached, it's very concerning.

To pin the playoff list exclusively on the defense is just untrue. Josh and the offense put up 3 points in the second half of the game. Josh fumbled, executed some poor 3 and out drives, took sacks to knock them out of FG range, and worse yet Dawson Knox missed a block that would have put the Bills in position to win....AFTER the defense stopped Houston. 2 minutes ago, Big Gun said: Way too often McD is out coached, it's very concerning.

Nelius Posted October 20, 2020 Posted October 20, 2020 I get some of the takes here and will agree that McDermott does not have a signature win. It's certainly not good to see his top process vets getting dumb penalties if we're supposed to be reaching the apex of our "process" or whatever. He's not a very good interview either in my opinion, his post game tonight didn't fit the mood and never does when we get beat badly. Always a cheerleader, never pissed. That said there's way too much Patriots love in here. They're not a good team right now, folks. They are a worse team than this Bills team. There are huge problems with this defense right now but this team is not losing twice to that garbage New England roster.

There are huge problems with this defense right now but this team is not losing twice to that garbage New England roster. He doesn’t have any top “process” vets. Maybe Tre, Poyer, Hyde? But those other “process” vets he leaned on heavily like Kyle, Lawson, Hughes, etc. he inherited As we’ve turned over the previous regimes talent on the defensive side of the ball it is not looking pretty. Milano can’t stay healthy.Edmunds is always behind the play. DL is very bad. CB2 has been an area of concern since Vontae Davis quit at half time in 2018. Edited October 20, 2020 by Mango 1
