Cal Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 It's kind of frustrating seeing him always clapping and rarely firing up the players. He was even clapping after a missed field goal. If we keep playing they way we are, we may make the playoffs but won't compete.

Turk71 Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 (edited) It's how he processes nervous energy. Edited October 25, 2020 by Turk71 1
Lfod Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Do you think he claps after a good meal at a restaurant or a good movie at the theater? What other situations can you imagine him awkwardly clapping? 1

This is an odd statement. It's the coach's job to do whatever helps his team win. That includes holding effective meetings and practices, building a good culture, intelligent game-planning and play-calling... and firing players up. I get these guys are well payed and should motivate themselves. But listening to players talk over the years (I've been a Bills for 50 years now), it's clear that some players are not good at getting themselves fired up. Incidentally, you should read up on the "Pygmalion Effect." In short, it says that when an authority figure (say a teacher or coach) shows belief in someone, they tend to perform better. McD with his clapping and encouragements keeps sending the message: I believe in you. It's a good message. Edited October 26, 2020 by hondo in seattle 2

TroutDog Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Because he is a positive person and recognizes that there are things to learn from everything, particularly failure. Many Bills fans should take notes. 😃 2 1
Rc2catch Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 We are seriously stretching the new thread thing with this though. Of all the things to talk about this clapping thing gets waaaaaaay to much air time. He’s just putting out a positive vibe to the players. Of all the things to be annoyed by this shouldn’t be on the list.
