Fire McDermott - 12 On the Field INEXCUSABLE

McD not screwing up would have been McD called a TO when he saw 12 men on defense before the FG. But he couldn't call a TO because he didn't have any TO's because he screwed up

You do understand that fron the sideline it is difficult (if not impossible) to count all your down linemen. At the very least someone upstairs should have alerted McD to the 12 men.

Pegula stammering and letting out a fart right about now trying to decide what to do…

 

… as far as which yacht to take down to Cabo San Lucas next week.  The tough decisions, you know.

This isn't a hard decision.  Fire McDermott immediately along with Dorsey. Finish out the season and pray Ben Johnson wants the job.  It's Terry's only hope. Keep Beane one more year but make it clear he's on thin ice.

Week after week, year after year we show up flat, unprepared, unfocused.  Only McDermott and Dorsey can pull a rabbit out of a hat and turn Josh Allen into a loser.

 

I do not trust this process.  I hate this process.  It must end today.  McDermott has had dozens of chances, and yet we look on in bemused horror as it happens time and time again.  Perhaps fireable offense #274 will be the actual straw that broke the camel's back.

Nothing will change tomorrow and we'll all be disappointed. 

 

But, by some miracle...whose interim?   Dorsey?   F no.  

[TheBrownBear]

Does Beane go too?

It is likely that the late DB injurie messup up the field goal team D.

 

The D played well enough to win tonight. Who coaches the D?  

What part of “Head” don’t you understand? He’s responsible for all facets of the game. Otherwise there wouldn’t be a Head Coach, they’d just be OC, DC, and ST coordinator.

It wouldn't have mattered. He had no TO's left. He used them even though they had no chance of getting the ball back

My god STOP making excuses for this blunder. It doesn't happen to ANY team in the NFL EVER - especially one that should be as knit up as the Bills. "It's hard to count to 12" what????!! They blew it, and it starts and ends with McD. This team is not mentally prepared for ANY situation.

Add this into his inprobable list of blown close games.  

 

It's comical at this point.  He should show some honor and resign

Are you kidding me? He’ll just blame the turnovers. It’s never his fault. Look at the playoff game in Houston, the 13 seconds, hail Murray, New England game

Ok, ok. Let’s suppose the 12th man was recognized and he got off the field. Did the Bills really play good enough to win this game against the 3-5 Broncos?

yeah, you're right.  That FG really surprised them,  never saw it coming.  They had to scramble to get the block a FG play in

The FG team is determined pre-game. You send the FG team out. Who thinks to count your men? That's why I think the late injury messed up the FG team.

Listen I’m kinda with you. But regardless it’s fair to say this isn’t the first time that SOMETHING goes wrong and we lose the game in painful fashion. It’s becoming a trend. That starts at the top. It’s getting more obvious as the years go on but same end result - finding ridiculous ways to lose. Yeh, maybe it technically wasn’t McD’s responsibility on that specific play. However, the stench from the rotting fish head has seeped its way across the entire team and mistakes keep happening. And that ultimately falls on McD.

Are you sure you are? Dude needs to be fired tonight!!! Inexcusable!!

I agree he needs to be fired. That’s not the point I was making and you know it. Good try though.

[akm0404]

And, despite it being completely obvious to anyone with 3 functioning brain cells rubbing together, they won't be fired.  Billionaire owner far too busy being grifted by slick-talking hucksters who are scamming him out of untold millions.  Exactly what you'd expect from the worst franchise in American professional sports history and the laughingstock butt of every joke.

It’s very sad the clown car coaching staff is still here at midnight!

I hate this team. I hate this ***** coaching staff.

I hate Beane too 

[rjbbills]

It is the fault of the special teams coach. Denver executed to get on the field properly, we didn't. probably didn't even practice it. Oh I thought you were counting. The guys that are normally on the field for FG kicks should have been on the field like they normally do. It's that simple. Whoever is not normally on the field for the FG, then there's the problem. Did it go through his F'n head.."why am I out here? I'm never out here for this".
