Happy Six Years to Coach McDermott - Moment of Appreciation

[BillsGuyOutWest]

Saw it was his hiring anniversary today. Went back and found the original ESPN article from his hire:

 

https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/18453441/buffalo-bills-agree-hire-sean-mcdermott-head-coach

 

Seeing where the team was back then, really makes you appreciate where we are now.

 

All you need to know is the article contains this line,  "Whomever McDermott hires as offensive coordinator must deal with the potential loss of quarterback Tyrod Taylor."

 

Think we figured it out.

I wish we had Schwartz back as DC.

This should be a national holiday.

There have been many head coaches in my fan Hood. Many who of course failed at the job, too many to mention. Of the good head coaches I liked Chuck Knox and of course Marv Levy and I even liked Doug Marrone. But I have to admit Sean McDermott in my opinion has been the best head coach that hasn't won a championship, yet. He has proven to be an admirable leader of men, has a passion for the game and truly cares a great deal for his players as well demonstrated from the recent near tragedy of Damar Hamlin. I do believe he should be head coach of the year.

Six years and not even one trip to the Super Bowl?

I had to look him up to see where he was these days! He’s an assistant defensive coach with the Titans, and I was surprised to see the Bills had one more sack in one fewer game that the Titans. Pressure was his calling card, so that kind of surprised me. He was the opposite of what we have now which feels bland and can be frustrating, but it works. 

 

P.S. - I don’t blame him for not wanting to work for Rex. That’s a sign of intelligence right there!

Better than the Mets 7+ years of not making the World Series.

I got a lot of love for McD!  Before him we were eyeing what top draft pick we wanted by week 6. We didn’t win the division for 25 years straight, now we have done it THREE YEARS IN A ROW. Simply incredible the turn around he’s done for the Mafia!!

As was pointed out on Twitter...

Sean McDermott was hired on 1/11, of all dates.

Too perfect. Can't make this stuff up.

I have a friend who actually calls him McDouche.

 

I use the term "friend" loosely.

Completely revamped the entire organization from top to bottom.  One of the best rebuilds in all of sports.  If we get a Super Bowl or two will go down as one of the greatest rebuilds of all-time.

You will have many acquaintances in life.  Those you can consider a true friend could probably be counted on one hand.

One of the best HC's in football and there are still people that want this guy fired.
