Oh well, I like the idea of keeping Beane but McD just doesn't have the chops to win us a close playoff game.  Enjoy McShottenheimer if that's your thing?

It's actually broken.  He stated that a while ago. @MikePJ76 when's the new laptop getting setup? 😂

Cool, I am glad I acknowledged that possibility then...lol

In fairness, 30 other teams have failed to accomplish that over the same time period

 

You just drastically altered the argument by the post to which I responded.  

 

Is that a standard to be held aloft as being great?  

 

Our 90's era team blew that out of the water and Kelly was no where near as good as Allen.  

 

Just sayin'

Already some here hoping they get fired anyways, it’s so much fun sit back and watch the mental gymnastics required to maintain their thought process, 😂 🍸🚬, where’s my bar snacks…, 🤣

 

Any proof they have thought processes?

[Teddy KGB]

Guess that’s why Miami is ranked higher than us 🤦🏼‍♂️🤣

The Bills better win the SB soon or the McDermott holy wars will be in full force.....starting to get BBMB during the drought vibes.

 

He just needs to get there.  
 

If he can freaking get there a ton is alleviated - and his resume looks extremely stellar.  
 

Would at least remove the stink of 13 seconds.

We really need to get back to talking about Tremaine Edmunds

The piece that disgruntled fans here seem to lack awareness of is exactly how hard both Beane & McDermott work to get better at their professions.

They are open to new ideas, trying new things, and actively focusing on improving their own deficiencies in the off-season

 

This isn't guys like Jeff Fisher, or Marty Schottenheimer, or Marvin Lewis, or Mike McCarthy who might have had some early success and mostly fiddly-farted their way through the last 2/3 of their careers - fans and pundits KNOWING that these guys weren't going to get any better or ever sniff a SB

 

My point is that both guys, and especially McDermott are putting in the hard work and effort to keep the stability that they've built the last 6 seasons while making the changes and enhancements that are needed to improve and keep giving us shots at a ring.  

 

Each and every frigging year

 

The "word-of-the-day" appears to be stability.  

 

Stability is one thing, ultimate competitiveness entirely another.  

 

It's quite possible to have stability without being ultimately competitive.  

 

But given what you said, what are your expectation(s) for the team this year?  

 

Our playoff history isn't great here.

Once again here we are. No one is saying Super Bowl isn't the goal.

 

The difference in opinion is that we think McDermott and Beane are putting us in a position to achieve that goal.

You think that McDermott is a detriment to that goal - that we cannot win it with him because he is not capable of it.

Letting him walk greatly cut down on those tiresome repetitive threads.

But, why?

 

Didn't they have several years of contract left?

 

 

 

Doesn’t really matter I guess. Many coaches have been fired after signing extensions.

 

Agree this really means very little.  So no need for anyone to go nuts.  Likely they were safe for another 2 years anyway barring disaster.  Most GM's to get a 2nd chance on HC so even if McD were to be let go, likely Beane would have hung on.

 

This just means if if Pegula wants to fire them in next couple of years, he'll just need to dig another well.

 

Is he still digging wells or did he get out of that business?

This is going to be an unpopular take. But the timing is interesting. Could it be a message from ownership to the players, especially the black players. The GM and coach are my guys, you are a player aka the staff and need to know your place. Diggs speaking up and challenging the coach and GM stirred the pot. So Pegula needs to show that he stands with them. Who knows maybe some of the character guys talk bothers players. It can be viewed as a certain way to some of the black players. It was interesting in the comments around this extension, specifically calling out being a good Christian, etc. 

Yeah, this take is almost as bad as Einstein's.  Not as bad though

Someone with an IQ as large as you claim should be able to understand reason - they are trying to eliminate a portion of fandom in preparation for reducing size of stadium.  May I suggest you join JEST fandom so you can help raise average IQ of their fandom?

This shows the ownership backed them when many in the football world wondered if they were on the hot seat.

Added Reid to your list as took him 21 years to win the SB.
