What? Sinking ship... holy crap people on this board are whacked.

Well, especially that one. That stuff just goes on my “manual ignore” list, for the most part. I’ve asked, but not gotten any answer, regarding the team he actually roots for. Best to just keep moving rather than feed him, I think.

Yeah I feel like this is an odd look. Thought everyone wanted in Buffalo? 

Maybe Buffalo didn’t want him.  Didn’t heath Farwell leave in a similar manner after 13 seconds?.  Maybe Bobby Johnson, too.

That comment makes me think of Dorsey losing his S in Miami early in the season over McKenzie.  

If we want better YAC then we should focus on the screen game.  

Personally I think the coaching staff is chasing something they wont be able to catch.  I dont think Josh's game sets the wideouts up for success in YAC.

 4th or 5th coach to leave for a lateral job or worse. Interesting indeed.

Who are the other 3 or 4?

Hall, Farwell, Johnson. Bill Teerlinck Was DL coach and he left for Virginia Tech 2 years ago taking the same position. I think there’s another one.

New blood might be just what we needed in the WR's room.

This is a shocker! Blown away. Maybe McDermott isn’t the guy we thought he was. Wish Chad Hall all the luck, will be cheering for him.

I listed the 4 I could remember.

 

WR coach Hall, OL coach Johnson, Special teams Farwell, and DL coach Teerlinck. All left and took same job elsewhere.

Well, if Hall was all that but McDermott wasn't all in, does anyone else wonder why Daboll didn't take him last year?

 

I also find it interesting that two of the position groups where we had to sit the young guys and get the old guys back in lost their position coaches.

 

Since there are other coaches not currently under contract this may not be the end of the changes.

I’m interested to see the replacement. Do they go with experience or weak replacement.

I'm assuming Dorsey is going to bring in someone he's more familiar with, I think EPS said something upthread. I assume it's going to be someone not quite so player friendly and it will be the end of McKenzie on this team.

 

Sorry @Buffalo_Stampede, thought I quoted you.

It’s definitely a big consideration. I was at the 2019 draft in Nashville and somehow weaseled VIP tickets, which was same access as players and their family. I had had a few pops and was chatting people up. Turns out I was taking to Christian Wilkins friends and family. I said, hey, good chance he lands in Buffalo tonight. They said, yeah, but he wants to go to Miami. I asked why, and they said all he cares about is making the most money and he would lose a ton of his salary playing in New York. It’s an unspoken that having a good team papers over now, but it’s still a huge disadvantage for us. 
 

Chad’s sister and her family live in Georgia FWIW. Met them in Nashville ironically too- the MNF game. Great people. 

Well, just have Trump's accountant's do his taxes.

Probably more $ and tax free state and better opportunity to be next in line OC or assistant OC. Our guys love him, but did our WR's get better under him? Gabe looks bad and McKenzie flopped when given a starting role. Probably good for both sides to move on 

 

Highest State Taxes:

 

California 13.3%

Vermont 8.75%

Iowa 8.53%

Wisconsin 7.65%

 

Only eight states have no personal income tax:

Wyoming

Washington

Texas

Or NYS could get their tax structure in place to be similar to other states. I mean who wants to be #1 in taxation 

New York city would collapse if we did that.

Vegas odds makers don't think we're a sinking ship.

So, four in six years? Doesn't seem like a big deal to me at all.

 

Hell... the Steelers have had 3 OL coaches leave for lateral moves since 2019. They're considered the poster boys for stability lol 

 

2019 - Mike Munchak left for the Broncos

2021 - Adrian Klemm left for University of Oregon

2022 - Chris Morgan left for the Bears

 

I just googled "NFL coach leaves team for same position" and numerous examples came up right away. 

 

2021 - Commanders VP of Player Personnel Kyle Smtih leaves to take same position with Atlanta Falcons

2022- Giants DC Pat Graham leaves Giants to take same positon with Raiders

2023 - Patriots TE coach Nick Caley leaves to take same position with Rams

2023 - Jaguars WR coach Chris Jackson leaves to take same position with University of Texas 

2023 - Rams OC Liam Cohen leaves to take same position with University of Kentucky

What we do NOT know is how many they wanted back. The ST coach was allowed to find his own gig (again in Jax) without the mess of firing him. I thought that was a classy way to handle that. I suspect Hall may be a great guy and well liked in the WR room, but as has been pointed out, he wasn’t doing much with what he had to work with.  (I know, we need to add more talent regardless of who the coach is.) He could have been a great guy who we wanted to move on from for an upgrade.  We have no way of knowing, and I won’t pretend to know.

I think we should be hoping they go the weak replacement option. That will just make things more entertaining around here.  😋

A position coach. A nothing burger.
