Sorry man but you dont "get lucky" when you coach a super bowl winning football team. There have been 516 head Coaches in NFL history, and only 35 of them have won a Super Bowl. The view that he got lucky is myopic. I think many people on this board grossly underestimate what it takes to win football games, let a lone a frickin super bowl.

When did being like Tony Dungy become a bad thing? There was a post here a few weeks ago asking if Bills fans expectations were too high. I said no then. I am officially changing my mind. So Marv Levy? Great! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Not a new comparison. Many of us have said the same thing for a few years now. McD has evolved in some areas such as going for it on fourth down and being aggressive before the end of the half. He has failed to evolve in other areas. Challenges remain poor. But worst of all he trusts his Coordinators too much. Dorsey lost his mind in the second half completely abandoning the run. Where was McD to tell him to keep the offense balanced? Why is he not talking to Josh to stop this hero ball non-sense? Belichick had no problem giving Brady an earful when needed. McDermott is not going anywhere. So all we can do is hope the players overcome him like Manning did with Dungy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot that you only get a pinky ring if Rex Grossman is the opposing QB. I am praying that we don't go to the Super Bowl only and be forced to accept victory over Geno Smith. I'd almost rather not make the playoffs at all. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The John fox teams had good defenses Peyton’s teams had paper tigers for Defense and when he finally had a healthy bob sanders … won a sb … went to Denver with good defenses …. 2 SB appearances When it comes down to one more drive… defense is the key in the playoffs Tom Brady had it … manning didn’t 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillMafia716ix Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Im really starting to question McDermott inability to tell his coordinators to run the damn ball!! It’s like he’s completely hands off when it comes to the offensive side of the football. It’s been our problem the last 3 years!! They just flat out refuse to have balance in their offense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da webster guy Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Once again McD's decision to go for it on 4th and 2 instead of kick and extend our lead comes back to cost us the game, as it very nearly did in KC. The other thing that is on McD/Frasier is lack of game coaching their dbacks, most notably Cam Lewis on the 4th and very long completion to Jefferson. "Guys, its 4th down DO NOT CATCH THE BALL and try to get an INT. Swat it down, hit it as hard as you can but in a contested catch situation trying to catch the ball can result in giving up a catch. Duh" Hyde made that mistake once, and today it was Cam Lewis. He could have easily spiked that football instead of trying to outcatch Jefferson. Game would have been over. This is high school stuff. Seriously. Like holding the receivers in the 13 second game. Basic. Yet our guys don't seem to know it and they're not being reminded either. How can this be?

Hell of a team builder/culture guy though (i dont say that sarcastically either)... Lucky he has 17. We're getting into danger territory where another wasted season may come at a price on the coaching front. As it should imo. Realistically though an underpermance likely shows Dorsey the door in lieu of an established OC. The Dorsey situation is interesting.. Obviously Josh was all over it and “approved” the appointment … If they get in someone else next year…maybe leave the call to MCD and Beane only …?

It Lewis needs to be specifically told to swat the ball away on 4th down after being on the sideline witnessing the Hail Murray … he must have an IQ of room temperature… I can’t blame the coaching staff for that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
