Do You Still "TRUST THE PROCESS"?

Well, if that quote from Terry is true, there will be big big changes. Although, Jerry Jones has been a known scumbag for years, and he is still the owner of one of the most storied sports franchises. Unfortunately, money runs the world. 

 

As much as Jerry Jones is too directly hands on and he is just a wart of a human being, his passion to win can never be questioned.

 

Would Jerry Jones tolerate the big game losses the Bills have taken over the past few years without doing something?

I think the process was just a 5-year-plan to turn the team around, which it did. But now we're in year 6 and there is no process anymore.

I'm not really certain what the "process" is anymore.

 

We have gone through 5 different coordinators (3 OC, 1 DC, 1 ST) and the high point is still getting blown out in the AFC Championship Game 3 years ago.

They’ve said part of the process is retaining your home grown (familiar) talent. Which is a faulty strategy when you don’t draft well.

This has been the second best run of bills success in my lifetime. Last night sucked and it could come back to haunt us at the end of the season. 
 

but some of you need Xanax.

It was the second best run of Bills success in your lifetime. Congrats. But now it’s ending.

Bengals Play-offs' earlier this year

 

Last night (name to follow)

 

We find ways to lose.

 

I appreciate to the fans who have lived through the dark ages post-Jimbo have an admiration for this current Bills regime for getting us back into the play-offs on a regular basis, securing a true franchise QB and bringing Buffalo Proud back to the Buffalo Bills fandom.

 

I get that.

 

"Saviours" may be too highly a label to bestow upon this regime given Terry Pegula already took that title for first buying the Buffalo Sabres and then the Buffalo Bills and securing their futures in Buffalo.

 

I also get that.

 

However:

 

(1) Does Sean McDermott have what it takes to win the biggest games?  

 

(2) Sean McDermott is said to be a defensive minded coach and has been there for a number of years banging the table for an one sided investment of high draft picks, salary cap and free agency pursuits into the defensive side of the ball yet our defence and special teams continue to collapse in pivotal times of key games.  Why?

 

(3) Is Beane's inability to build an average NFL OL to give our franchise QB an extra 1/4 second to scan the field before making a decision to pass, run or throw the ball away or to allow us to run the ball successfully when we have a 10 point lead a fundamental obstacle to this regimes ability to finally deliver us a Buffalo Bills Super Bowl Championship?

 

(4) Do you still TRUST THE PROCESSTM?

No,,,,gave away a road divisional game AFTER THE OPPONENT LOST THEIR HOF STARTING QB , AND BLEW A 10 POINT HALF TIME LEAD WHILE BEING UNABLE TO CONTROL THE FRANCHISE , QUARTER BILLION DOLLAR QB WHO REPEATEDLY SAYS “ I CANT DO THAT” REGARDING TURNOVERS. THEN AGAIN FOUND YET ANOTHER WAY TO HAVE A SPECTACULAR WALK OFF LOSS AFTER PULLING EVEN FOR OT!  This process will always fail under the pressure of sudden death as history has proven and winning a SB IS THE ULTIMATE SUDDEN Death situation.  Allen is now 0-5 in OTand they seem to now expect to lose , just like the 90’s SB teams developed their self fulfilling prophecy after losing the first two SB’s. 

 

it was interesting to see the ever smug rodgers talking about being positive and thinking self manifestation and lecturing it to the young jets players. His psychobabble , holier than thou BS sure didn’t stop his ruptured Achilles from forming a visible ball in his left calf after it rolled up.  Sorry to say but i am over his appearances with Macafee who cant control his long winded , adhd type questions and ball washing just to keep rodgers appearing on tuesdays. Now because of ESPN hiring pat, Stephen a smith, smug, narcissistic a-hole #1 is now leading into pats show apparently. And was again bragging about the Diggs  hating b lo stuff. These guys are all insufferable. Mcd is at least a great man , but he has not delivered the promised trophy and the PROMINENT FAILS KEEP STACKING.  

 

Sorry , but if he cant deliver this year ( unlikely with crazy mlb situation, still with brown at RT , Dorsey as his OC), they should move on before wasting Allen’s entire prime!  Hurts to say , but last night was final nail in the coffin for the process for me. It’s about a SB TITLE, not just making  the playoffs.

"non-process years" all get lumped into one

[BillnutinHouston]

Maybe the more relevant question is, does Josh still trust the process?

I'm not sure how to feel but i disagree about D and ST. The defense allowed 16 points. ST have generally been lights out.

[Billsfan1972]

I was waiting for this thread.......😉🤣

 

I hate "The Process" and how people here are either for or against McD.  

 

I will not panic yet, however this can get old very quickly unless they go on a run.

[Dr.Mantis_Toboggan]

If Josh Allen doesn’t go through one of the biggest transformations in NFL history from year 1 to year 3, there is no process…

 

Imo, it is highly unlikely Sean McDermott ever leads a team to a Super Bowl win, he is cut from the same cloth as a Marvin Lewis and Marty Schottenheimer (RIP).  He’s a good coach, a great leader of men, like Dan Campbell, but when it comes to the more cerebral aspects of coaching and in game management, McDermott gets lost in the shuffle.

 

Josh seems to have plateaued and lost that chip on his shoulder that drove him to make that leap from prospective bust to top 3 at the hardest position to play in pro sports...  He is far from stupid, one of the the highest wonderlic scores amongst active QBs, I just think off the field his head is everywhere except where it needs to be.

 

As for the man fueling said process, Beane’s inability to add offensive weapons to help Josh aside from Diggs is truly head scratching. There have been numerous opportunities to add another piece to get them over the top, but then they just keep signing players to the defensive side of the ball while trying to patch work the skill positions on offense.  
Hopefully Beane doesn’t stand pat and waste this year hoping Gabe Davis becomes a legit #2, and pulls the trigger on a trade for somebody like Hollywood Brown or another legit #2 (was hoping for Mike Evans) on a team looking to tank.

 

The process has taken us as far as it’s going to go, and as if they stand pat, they’ll be lucky to squeak into the wildcard.  
 

ADD Kirksey to the active roster 

ADD a legit #2 WR

Remove Ken Dorsey

Promote Joe Brady to OC

Hope the Josh pulls his head out of his arse, and the rest falls into place…

 

All of these things will happen, it’s just a matter of how long Beane is willing to let this dumpster fire burn?

He lost me when he started Peterman on the road in a playoff chase.

I've been an outspoken critic ever since and routinely beaten up on this board.

He is a nice man who did a great job with adversity last year.

He stole our best chance at a SuperBowl away from us with 13 seconds 

I don't believe in his roster management and special teams emphasis. Gilliam useless. Matakevich useless. So fitting to lose with Matakevich lying on the ground at the goal line looking useless. Bernard is the MLB equivalent of Peterman. 

I think our teams are mentally weak.

He has now messed up our franchise QB and only hope for a SB.

And we are stuck with him. He isn't going anywhere. It would take a 3-14 season and total player revolt to get rid of him now. That's not going to happen.

So like I said before the season started our only hope is Allen. Hopefully he turns it around.
