Why do you feel that way out of curiousity? No doubt the bills got screwed last week, but do you honestly think the NFL wants Joe flacco , Gardner minshew and Kenny Pickett in the playoffs instead of Josh Allen?

He's also often defeated in close games and any time in-game head coaching decisions are required. Let's hope the Bills talent can overcome the inept coach by winning by multiple scores! That's how we do it in Buffalo. We like to handicap ourselves with a complete doofus of a head coach. Then if they win, you know the team REALLY played well. Best of the best of the best with one arm tied behind our backs. Ultimate bragging rights. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well...that is only partially true...if the Bills have the ball last, they usually win in those situations...if they score too quickly and give the other team the ball back with anything over 13 seconds where they only need a FG they tend to not fair too well.

That being said, in the grand scheme of things, we aren't in those positions that often(except this year) since we typically are blowing teams out. They also had the best regular season record since 2020 and haven't lost in the regular season by more than 6 points in over 2 years(Indy 11/21/21 was the last time), so that simply shows how few times they have actually lost and how hard it is to beat them...and in most cases, the Bills do far more to beat themselves than the other team actually does.

A ton of them do, and to a degree, you can't blame them. Most of the HC hires we have made going back over 50 years have been dog crap. Bills fans assume that is the way it must be, because that is the way it always was. They need to realize there is another way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. They are a great team talent wise who can blow teams out, and because of that, there's nowhere to lay the blame for their inability to finish games in crunch time except on McDermott. Some of his coaching failures are painfully evident even to casual fans (12 men on the field to lose the Broncos game for example), some are nuanced and we have to speculate on player v. coach failures (his defense's consistent inability to come up with a stop on the last drive to win it), but with so many at this point, he has to take responsibility for all of it. It's his team, and when the game is close and on the line late, they/he choke. Most teams, especially good ones, do NOT choke with anywhere near this level of consistency. Something's bad, bad wrong in McDermott's leadership for this to keep happening. And he has not owned up to any of it recently. He never places blame on himself or his leadership, and it's infuriating. This is just my personal opinion, but I believe you can see it all over his face when the game is close late. He gets that pained look in his eyes and just seems lost and overwhelmed. You can really feel him trying not to lose instead of knowing how to confidently go for the win. It's pathetic. I tried to make excuses for him for so long thinking his culture was important, but at this point, the emperor has no clothes. The players, especially the veterans, have to see this crap and know, too. There won't be any winning culture much longer when they come into camp next year knowing that many of them are elite at what they do in the NFL, while the highest ranking person on the team is scared, inept, and at the bottom of the barrel in the coaching ranks. Who could be motivated to keep playing for that year after year? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to realize there is another way. To be fair though, most of those hires were made under the ownership of Ralph Wilson. He was notoriously cheap with coaching hires. He only opened up the wallet a couple times and not coincidentally had some success then with Knox and Marv. He was even too cheap to pay Saban.
