Broncos @ Bills - Postgame Thread

[Jauronimo]

Thats an all timer. A truly unforgettable loss. Thank you 2023 Bills.  The only thing you've delivered.  

[Bangarang]

This game should not have been close. It really shouldn’t have. 
 

The offense continues to be so bad. Turnovers, execution, play calling..it’s all just so frustrating to watch. 
 

The defense played admirably but McD can’t help himself with the blitzes. It worked once and he foolishly went right back to it again. 
 

The season looks over and I honestly think it’s time to consider cleaning house.

It's excruciating watching new ways to lose in the final minute but let's be honest. Even if they had won that game won would you have felt good about the team's chances moving forward?

 

What's most disturbing is how much they lose like the drought teams used to.

 

I'm thankful for McD turning the thing around but everyone knows him and his tendencies and his defense, except this year he has overburdened himself with defensive playcalling responsbilities and tends to panic and call engage eight.

 

No matter what Pegula thinks he's in danger of losing the players if he hasn't already.

 

What a mess.

Josh isn't having fun anymore, that's painfully obvious. Diggs isn't either. 

[TheFunPolice]

What does McDermott bring to the table at this point?

 

The team is an undisciplined mess. 

 

He chokes in the big moments. 

 

We can find a DC. For all we know he's not getting 100% out of the 71 1st round picks on defense. 

 

I'm literally shocked because I thought there was just no way we lose tonight.

If only they were able to trade him.  Dead cap is crazy on Stef's contract, otherwise Beane should be looking to get the best haul for him while he's still prime.

Diggs is a winner. He is lost in a weird world he knows nothing about. 

[EmotionallyUnstable]

Awful, embarassing finish.

 

Shout out to the defense. If anyone tries to blame this one on them, they can shove it. 
 

McD

 

Allen

 

Offense

 

Special teams

 

GROSS!

[PastaJoe]

One positive takeaway is we won’t have to endure so many night games next year as they won’t be scheduled in so many.

[Jamone]

This is so messed up. Literally traumatized. For life. We should file a trillion dollar class action lawsuit for pain and suffering over the last 30 years. Days like this make me wish the bills moved to Toronto so I could have been done with them then. Liking this team is a sickness.

You know what guys, the offense sucked various times tonight, and came through at various times. 

 

Ditto for the defense.

 

Special teams and coaching sucked pretty much all night.

 

What I cannot get over, what will haunt me tonight and the rest of the season, possibly forever, was watching the Broncos kick a FG, seeing it MISS, jumping up in shock and about to celebrate, only to see a flag come in. That is honestly trauma right there. I can't even think about the rest because we just witnessed a win get turned back into a loss. Last years game against Minnesota was like this too, but this felt worse.

To all you young kids out there, this was what “drought era” football looked like…👍

I think it usually ended in a Fitzpatrick pick while driving to end the game.

 

Now we seem to tie or take the lead and then the defense blows it.

I’m out on Mcd. This organization can’t sell us on another season after another debacle.

 

He will finish out the year and it should be l, Thanks for all you have done, but it’s time. 
 

Beane isn’t without fault either in this whole mess.

I am so happy other people are calling out the 2nd straight all out blitz. the people i watched with looked at me like i had 4 eyes when i called it out. 

Just play straight defence and you force a long FG and still give yourself time and timeouts to make a FG yourself.  It was just stupid coaching,  it was stupid for Beane to not get McDermott to hire a defensive coordinator

[kkim0904]

At least, i don't have to go through this again rest of this season...  Going forward, We win i am happy, we lose little sad but not a big deal.. life goes on..

what is this *****?  Please tell me this guy isn't going to make vague comments now on twitter that the media will eat up.

 

maybe he should go play with his brother who cost dallas the playoff game last year in SF because he did not want to tackle if he is unhappy.  

 

after I fired the staff if i ran this team I would take offers for this guy.  

 

just insane he would make a comment on social media after this kind of loss

[NyQuil]

Nate on the postgame mentioning how this is making him hate watching football.

 

They have been miserable to watch since the Green Bay game.

[Buffalo03]

I don't understand why the defense can never hang on that one last time. Every time they get in these situations. They play well all game and then the one absolute time they need to be at their best, they let the offense go right down the field. We got lucky in the Giants and Buccs games

[JROC INTEL]

I mean firing mcD is a given, really not debatable. My fear is that a lot of the bad habits are ingrained in the players. They are not given a free pass. A lot of immaturity and lack of knowledge of fundamentals which will be hard to reverse at this point. 
But it starts at the top, and there’s no other option but to start there.
