The balls on the forth down call in our own half. Baller. 

Love to see it ❤️💙

Most of you must be have grown up in an abusive home.  You don’t change your tune about a guy bc he’s not currently slapping you around, you have to recall all the times he has and hold him accountable.  
 

if he can get his team close to the SB, I can forgive him, lose to the Steelers and I’m out.

[NoHuddleKelly12]

Not to mention this isn’t the first time he’s coached the team from middling to hot streak to close out the division in style—2021 we were 7-6 and proceed to rip off the remaining games—that counts for something too. 

[Brand J]

I wish I would’ve put a huge bet on the Bills to win the East when they were 6-6 and the Fins were 9-3. Wonder what the odds were then…

[BillMafia716ix]

Best coaching job in his entire tenure so far.

[Andy1]

McDermott gave a masterclass on defense in second half against the guy everyone considers a genius offensive coach.

[PBF81]

Let's see how we do in the playoffs first.  

 

Beating a depleted Miami team, barely, while an impressive 2nd-Half, was only moderately impressive.  

 

Allen was a beast and without Harty's return TD ... 

 

Having said that, we're all happy until the next game.  Pitt/Pickett should be somewhat of a breather, and hopefully Miami or KC can beat Baltimore at home, then hopefully we keep winning, host the AFCCG and then win the Super Bowl.  

 

Just let's not get outcoached.  

 

GO BILLS!!!

He doesn't deserve the job until he hangs them up. But for me any thought of him deserving to be fired was contingent on missing the playoffs (not that he would have been anyway but there would have been a legitimate argument that he should). He deserves to coach the team next year. And every season is a new season. You have to earn the right all over again.

[Billl]

That was a REALLY good win for McD.

This. If we come out flat against a Well coached Tomlin team, I would not be surprised at all. 

Would you be surprised if Mike Tomlin won a playoff game? Because he hasn’t won one since Josh was in community college.

Diggs wants out. Depleted defense. 6-6. Media and fans turned. Tyler Dunne hit article. 
 

To 2 seed and AFC East Champs. 
 

Not only was this an admirable job of keeping the team together but the way his defense played down the stretch was remarkable.  He should be HC until he’s decides he wants to hang them up. 

 

He should be in consideration for coach of the year. 
 

I said it in the 2nd half thread I said it after Dallas that if he gets this team the division for me I will forgive 13 seconds.  
 

That’s over.  I’m done with it.  No use looking back.  He could have lost this team he could have lost it tonight and he didn’t.  
 

I’m not sure all fans understand how big a deal this run has been.  
 

 

Now finish it.  Go win the championship.  
 

And please God let Douglas and Dodson be healthy (who the heck thought we’d be here saying that).

The Bills outgained Miami by 200 yards.

 

What exactly did you not like about coaching tonight?

[Buffalo Ballin]

McDermott is safe for now. We can extinguish the hot seat talk. Now let's move on to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Did I make a comment about coaching? 

I said we're all happy.  I'm happy.  

 

The coaching reference was to our playoff history.  Let's hope it doesn't repeat.  

 

GO BILLS!!!

And let's be honest, this was a depleted Miami team.  

 

I expected a more decisive win, so did most Bills fans.

I did. 30-1

[Nelius]

He earned it. It was a long shot at one point, but he did absolutely everything correct to earn it. His defense has been incredible and has improved over last year, minus Milano nonetheless. Minus both of your previous LBs come to think of it. Brady move worked. Yes, McD had pretty much been lights out since he was rightfully on the warm seat.

 

They also just played a clip of him genuinely screaming with joy on WGR and it’s hard not to root for him. 4 in a row is historic. Hats off

[stuvian]

Clappy got us from 6-6 to 11-6 and the division title. We had no business beating the Dolphins tonight. McDermott coached that win out of us. I am done doubting him. He's upper echelon if not elite

[Drew21PA]

How many others are back on?

 

 

sorry I doubted you coach.  I don’t like all your decisions but - you got the boys back on.  
 

I’ll ride with you too!

 

let’s go!

I never doubted McD or spoke an ill word about him!!!
