have some patience.   Did they lay a big fat egg yesterday?  Hail yes.  But-how soon we forget the years between 2000 and 2016 !  

We are emotionally distraught and rightfully so.  But we should try to react with reason and not with emotion.   Reactions based on emotions can start wars!  

Yet many want to spin the coaching bingo bin and see what we wind up with.  NO! 

McDermott deserves to be a tenured coach much like Hamlin, Harbaugh, Carroll (none of which made the playoff BTW).  It is what stable franchises do because it works. He has earned the right to stick with this team with the good and the bad years.  And the chance to right the ship. 

Now as for assistant coaches?  Fire the bums !

The Bills laid an egg yesterday. Just like they do at least once every year under McDermott. Lack of preparation, lack of schemes, lack of drive. We cannot trust this team because it happens all too often.

4 straight years of McDermott being out coached, under prepared, fielding a soft team.

 

We had to bring in Beasley and brown to make up for lack of planning while letting hodgins walk and piss poor scouting at wr. 

 

We had to bring in Klein to shore up depth due to our draft sucking

 

We had to trade for Marlowe after injuries because we didn't evaluate talent at safety...

 

Same for signing Rhodes from the street.

 

We rotated a handful of PS guys to elevated game status while drafting tons of DL.

 

Yeah.  This team is ***** fabulous. It starts this year with the coach who clearly can't evaluate talent. 

 

---edit -----

Since it keeps being pointed out

 

We also brought in Hines and never utilized him fully. The returns were flukes and there were multiple penalties ignored

 

We brought back Lawson and Phillips when we should have kept them. While letting Hughes walk.

 

We brought in OJ Howard for a 2TE system and didn't even use 1 TE fully.

 

We traded Moss mid season too late.

I knew the Bengals were a tough matchup for our D so I wasn't too upset with losing. A little shocked our O wasn't better. But it is what it is, a good season that got beset by injuries when Von Miller went down I had doubts so didn't get as emotionally invested as did in prior years.

I really get tired of the “drought years” as a reason we shouldn’t be hurting NOW. Its a lame thing to say.

That didn't take long

 

The trauma of the past makes people scared to swing for the fences...meaning they would rather never win squat as long as they never ended up back in that scary space again

 

it's how McDermott coaches, too. 

 

This type of fan and the current coaching staff are a perfect for one another

They'd rather ask the ugly girl to prom to go to the dance then ask the prom queen because being at the prom is good enough.

"Coach Hamlin"??
 

Anyway....the Eagles canned Pederson (SB winner 5 years ago) and they are right back in the NFCC game 2 years later.  Are they an un-"stable franchise"?

Bingo.

 

Man, this sucks. No excuses, the Bills fell flat on their faces.

This team shouldn’t be too reactive and toss out everyone and everything but the game was a sign that there does need to be some significant changes to the roster and schemes. Nothing so dramatic as tearing it all down but something significant has to happen.
