McDermott answers why we stopped uptempo offense

[Brand J]

This reminds me of Gailey’s “it was his turn” comment (ie an explanation that isn’t really an explanation).

[Carmel Corn]

So a supposed "defense" coach knows what's best for his offense?  IMHO - McD is an excessive control freak who doesn't know his own limitations.  As much as I want the Bills to replace Dorsey, it won't matter unless they replace McD as well.

I’ve always been a huge McDermott fan… but I’m losing faith he can get us to the SB.

You joke, but I’m sure this is it. They wanted to play ball control and avoid a shootout with the Bengals, who they feared would school them in a high scoring game. It’s the usual strategy of the underdog.

I was beings serious. Remember Gilbride getting punched? Defensive coaches do not like up tempo offenses. I 100% think that is the reason we won't play fast.

Lol. The wheels are coming off.

[Buffalo03]

Quick question, who calls the plays to a no huddle? Is it Dorsey? Or Josh?

One of the dumbest non-answers ever. Like seriously. What the ***** does that mean.

Dorsey said it was crowd noise.

Sorry I didn’t catch the actual press conference yet. Just catching up on tweets.

 

Thanks for reporting!  

 

This staff isn't going to be getting many if any benefits of the doubt going forward at this point.  

 

They've blown whatever good will they've had for this season anyway.  It's already an uphill climb for McD to salvage this mess.  I'm seriously wondering when he's going to throw Dorsey under the bus and promote Brady into the role.  Not that he's competent there as the odds are beyond slim for someone that has absolutely no track record of success in the role.  

 

It's going to be interesting to see how this shakes out and how patient Pegula is smack in the middle of an attempt to sell season tickets and PSLs to fans that already seem to be growing thin on patience for the current staff.  

 

And no matter how bad anyone thinks we are, honestly, we're presently seeded after the Steelers, Browns, and Jets, none of which have great QBs to understate their condition.

It’s not “complimentary football”

It's starting to feel like this staff is in over its head.

Follow up: "Sean, what other styles of offense did you want to move to?"

 

"Inept. Um. Complimentary. Look, we saw some of the Bengals defense get upset after our first TD so we helped them be the best version of themselves. We embrace growth mindset for all. Sure, there's some plays I'd love to have back but I have confidence in Ken. "

 

*Clap clap clap*

[EasternOHBillsFan]

I retract my earlier prediction of wins.

 

Time to cut ties with Dorsey and McD.... my God.

We are getting extremely close to ""It's hard to win games in this league"

[HOUSE]

This changes everything for me 

[Mark Vader]

I'm a McDermott fan, and this sounds really bad.

 

They better turn this around quickly.

Just when I thought I couldn't hate McDermott any more than I already do

Fire him

Im sorry, but how on Earth can players have confidence in him after this??

[Warcodered]

 

Does he just not have permission to fire his OC so he's wording his way around it? Because this doesn't exactly match up.
