I haven't fact checked all your numbers but I will assume they are correct. Putting it this way I see what you mean with Reid having quick success with the Chiefs with Mahomes since it took Reid to his 7th year to win the Super Bowl with the Chiefs. Now of course McDermott is in a different situation because the Bills already have their franchise QB. Allen's not going anywhere. This is a pretty concerning list if I am McDermott and want to hold onto my job. It all boils down to expectations. The greater the expectations the greater the floor on having to clear the minimum expectation. Right now the Bills probably have the highest expectation floor in all of football. Let's face it, it's nearly Thanksgiving and right now the Bills do have a very real chance of not winning the division. Don't win the division and don't win a playoff game this year when the expectation is at a minimum the AFC championship game and maybe more likely a Super Bowl appearance, that is how a really good coach gets bounced. You do have a guy like Sean Payton currently looking for a job. IMO, Sean Payton is one of the more over-rated coaches in NFL history. But my opinion also doesn't mean much at all in NFL executive circles. But yeah, just look at the numbers in this new post by the OP. There's no question they should be concerning for McDermott who is now in his 5th year with Allen. We should break it down more though. How many teams tossed the HC aside and went on to win a super bowl with the same franchise QB but with a new coach? Based on the above data we know that super bowl would have been won between year 1 and year 4 in nearly every case but how many of those cases are there, with again, the same QB since we know Allen isn't going anywhere? Edited November 19, 2022 by Sammy Watkins' Rib Quote
Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted November 19, 2022 Posted November 19, 2022 The only other way I would also look at this is that Allen was such a raw QB prospect coming out of the draft and taking a meteoritic rise in his third season I would lean towards giving McDermott a pass in years 1 and 2 with Allen since realistically the Bills were not winning a super bowl in either of those two seasons. If we are okay with that assumption than we can view this season of McDermott/Allen as their 3rd season. That logic also makes sense to me because it would mean next season is the true make or break season for the McDermott/Allen era as it would be year #4. And really, the only way I could see McDermott not back next season is if the Bills miss the playoffs this year entirely. Even not winning the division and getting bounced in the first year I think McDermott would come back for a final prove it year. 1 Quote

The combos shown in yellow are where the QB started before the coach. The ones in orange are where the QB and Coach started same season (far more common than I would have guessed). Its fairly clear that new head coaches with established franchise QBs have IN THE PAST won more super bowls than teams sticking with a coach for many years, one the QB is place. Quote

There is a sizable Bills fan contingent that still is upset over the loss of Tyrod Taylor as their starting QB! They always believe in him SO MUCH! If he can't get it done an McDermott goes, fans will get over it. Quote

On the other hand a good percentage of the last several super bowls have been coaches new to their teams (McVay, Reid, Shanahan, Taylor). I do not think he ever did. Which is why I gave Mcdermott the plus sign designation in Marvin Lewis + . Norv Turner on the Chargers might be a better comp. Reid was on the chiefs for 6 years before a Super Bowl appearance. 2013-2018 were no super bowl years. Really says something about Chiefs fans patience 😂 2 Quote

True but we also beat the three other AFC division leaders at the moment so you have to give McDermott and staff credit for that. You also can't fault the coaching staff for an under throw to McKenzie on 4th and goal against the Fins and a fumble in their own end zone that cost us the game against the Vikings. That's on Josh. He makes either of those plays and we're 7-2 and/or 8-1 not having this conversation. Quote
