McDermott Hot Seat?

[Chugga]

McDermott is coaching his ass off for this hobbled injury plagued defense.  Dorsey’s seat should be so hot I don’t know how he can sit

[BillsFan130]

I was always neutral on MCD.

 

But after tonight? Not good on so many levels

His adjustments seemed to click. The giants defense was amazing. Very amazing to see on the X's and O's. 

 

Amazing job by the Giants D

Didn't the giants d give up 500 yards last game?

I don't expect the Bills to make the Superbowl this year. But I don't think that is because of coaching.

 

I might revise this after that. Dorsey was atrocious first half and McDermott's time management at the end and the decision to go FG was awful.

Exactly.  

[HappyDays]

His clock management in the final 2 minutes was just awful. Run it three times and punt. Why would you put faith in the playcaller and the offensive weapons to execute a pass play?

If you were going to go for the field goal, the third down was a 100% run play call then.

I agree with that. But his time management and decision making as HC was bad.

Yep. Once Josh threw they should have punted IMO.

Six seasons in there is zero evidence McDermott can prepare a team to win four games in a row in the post season against playoff caliber teams.  Literally zero evidence.  Hoping is not a strategy.

trying the long FG instead of pinning the Giants deep was unconscionable, as well.  Someone check this guy’s bank account…

They don't have great players

Bills will not win  Super Bowl with this clown as the head coach. He was a much better defensive coordinator than head coach but 13 secs and tonight have me thinking he is just bad at his job.

Agreed.  In big moments we need to have a game plan and I don’t think we had one on our last drive.  If you’re going for the FG then run it 3 times.  If you’re going for the win then let Josh loose.  But playing some weird middle ground gave the giants a short field and a time out.  It’s one or the other they don’t get both.

No. Just, no. If you want to talk about yeeting Dorsey into the middle of Abbott Rd, I'll entertain that one.

[VW82]

McD has poured all his energy into the defense with Frazier gone, and for the most part it's been great. Losing Daquon and Milano is devastating.

 

The problem is Dorsey isn't good enough to have this much control. Our plan to ball control and win the clock is blowing up in our face. We're overreliant on Diggs, and it makes us predictable. We're not scaring anyone with our run game. The 11.5 personnel has flopped to date. 

 

We need all hands on deck to decide if it makes sense to stick with the current plan. I don't see how this is going to work against anyone in Jan.

If he would have done as you say, (I was shouting not to do this) and the Giants won, you'd be saying he's an idiot for not giving Josh freaking Allen a shot to put the game away. Or someone else would. Thousand different opinions and ways to critique, but in the end a win is a win. Just like the Chiefs near loss to the Texans last year. Just like the Dolphins near loss to the Pats this year.

McD D is fine. Dorsey needs to go. End of statement. 

[Since1981]

Dorsey. Fire him and we will see him hired as a CFL position coach. It’s as much about how much better others can be. The bills O talked too glowingly about Daboll

If he doesn't make the call to change the play caller it's going to be his job on the line too

Lol. No way he ends up going to SD or somewhere to QB coach a young talented dude. Dude is a legit QB coach.
