Buffalo / Philly Postgame thread

[folz]

People already going off on the coaching staff. Unbelievable.

 

This game was totally on the Bills players and the refs.

 

If Cook doesn't drop a gimme TD, Gabe and Josh are on the same page in OT, and Tyler hits his FGs, the Bills win by 16 points.

 

And don't even get me started on the refs.

[KOKBILLS]

The Bills just lose these big games. Especially this year late in the 4th quarter. I wonder why they always lose these?

 

We're burning TO's on that last drive uselessly and with 20 seconds left, and a TO, we are kneeling to go to OT... After he just witnessed their PK hit what should have been an impossible 59 yarder. But it's not impossible...

 

He's gotta go folks. And the sooner we all realize it the sooner we can move on together.

Team lacks killer instinct to put teams away and yet we continue to get burned over and over again.

Officially done with McDermott. It's been heading that way for a while, but I just can't do it anymore. He comes up small in every big moment. He is just outclassed more weeks than not. You basically need 1 stop the last quarter and a half and can't get one and the same thing happens in OT. He is a liability and we will never win because of a decision he makes, only in spite of him. He panics and folds every single time he has a chance to put a game away.  Useless time outs that could have been used to try to get to midfield or better for our own FG attempt before OT (Last I checked, 20 second with time outs is more than 13 seconds with timeouts).  Trying to ice a kicker when he should have let the guy come out under a time crunch and try to make a rushed 58 yard kick instead of letting the entire team regroup, collect their thoughts and be as prepared as possible.  You can go on and on about all the things that could have made a difference.

 

McDermott is not only not getting it done play calling wise in the most important situations, but he is active going out of his way to make decisions that hurt his own team.  He is a liability and I've had enough.  He is wasting our superstar QB's career. 

 

 

PS. Gabe Davis is awful. This team needs a real NFL #2 WR in the worst way.

Wgr post game is on fire. 

 

I cant bear to listen.  The hosts? The callers? Both?

We are circling the drain 

[frostbitmic]

The DC needs to be fired ... His 59th and 60th minute defense is the worst in the league. His OT defenses are trash as well. That's 3 games the defense blew the lead within the final minute of the game.

[Big Turk]

I mean...I dunno what to say...all they had to do is make a single play out of these easy freebies and the game is over.

 

• James Cook dropping a TD
• Bass missing 2 FG's(1 was blocked)
• Hyde turning his head around and not allowing a "Hail Hurts" that for all intents and purposes looked exactly like the "Hail Murray".
• Gabe Davis not turning the wrong way against a blitz that would have led him to an easy TD

Another game where the Bills had to beat themselves via dumb plays and penalties(many of which the refs gave the Eagles as gifts as well as many no calls against them).  

 

Put up 505 yards against the Eagles...there is NO WAY they should have lost this game.

When are Bills reporters going to call for McDermott's job? Icing the kicker, wasting a timeout they could have used Calling timeout in OT giving them more time to plan the play Defensive playcalls that a blind QB could pick apart Dorsey was a problem, Sean is THE PROBLEM!

[Turbo44]

In the biggest moments, McDermott comes up small.  It's not a trend any longer is every game and a fact.  Kneeling on the ball with 20 seconds left is f*cking gutless. He's the best 1st half D coach and the worst 2nd half coach.  He simply has to go, though we all know it aint happening.  HIS d allows last minute scores to lose games in NE, DEN, PHI.  Inexcusable.  I'm not even going to get into his clock management comical ability

[Niagara Dude]

Just a killer but it's how the season has gone.  Offence gets a TD late to go ahead and defence melts down in crunch time. Poyer and Hyde are done,  finished and time to get guys that can run and make plays.  Two passes that floated in the air and both Hyde and Poyer could not make plays on either on

[stevestojan]

McD is 100% on the hook for this. We scored 34 points on offense! Some missed plays (Gabe, that hurt), sure, but how does he not have the defense ready in OT? He was 100% playing to let them score a FG. And each of us KNEW how that would end. He needs to go. 

[CNYfan]

Slow death March of a season at the hands of the NFL.

Against Mac, Russ, and now Jalen. Absolutely pathetic.

[MPL]

It just seems impossible that the Bills keep coming out on the wrong side of these games. I mean, what?! Statistically, these kinds of games have to start breaking in favor of the Bills. They have to: unless there is a higher power involved — which I am actually starting to consider.  

[Maine-iac]

They needed to treat that first drive in OT like it was a TD or nothing.  Giving the ball back to Philly should have never been an option.

Never if they want access to the Bills.

Hocculih and McD canid suck a bag of you know what

 

I know i misspelled who cares doesn't deserve it

 

If you spelled what the ref should be called correctly, you would get a violation for language.  That ref needs to be disciplined.

Yeah, this officiating crew was hard to watch.  It's time to just call the penalties from upstairs.  And they missed yet another blatant hold or PI on Slay when he held Diggs' jersey on the possession in OT.  Do they not ever call penalties on Slay or something?

It was really bad first Philly touchdown RT pulled an early Lane Johnson and i mean it was blatant

[gordong]

mcdermott needs to go... horrible coach... gutless...
