  1. 1. Should the Bills Fire McDermott?

    • Yep. Too many bad losses and bad coaching in the playoffs
      210
    • Heck No. Playoffs year after year, and we're one of the best teams on NFL
      120

I know Josh has had down times, but when it matters he shows up. Yet again Josh turns in a gutsy performance in the playoffs and we still effing lose the game.

 

Obviously this has been a common theme throughout the last several years, with Josh being overall unbelievably good in playoffs only to get sent home.

 

This cycle has too many good coaches available to keep this guy McD around any longer.

 

We desperately need to make the switch. We needed to last year, maybe even the year before; but the reality here is that McD is COOKED

 

What about Bass missing the game tying FG, what about Diggs dropping the pass that probably would have been a TD, what about Cook dropping another pass that hit him in the hands as he was once again WIDE OPEN with no body around him ? 

 

Yah that F N McD is a POS HC & he probably coached those guys to miss all that stuff yep it's all about the coach & has absolutely NOTHING to do with the players !!! 

 

There's a hole lot more to this loss and this season than the HC to reinvent a team with as many all pro starters out for the season as they had and to put a defense on the field with tape & bubble gum to get to the second round of the play offs . 

 

Never mind its useless ...

To Sean's credit in his post game he said, " we didn't do enough in 2 of the 3 phases of football, starting with defensively and special teams!" He said offensively we did we some really good things. I think this goes to his playing complimentary football mantra. Our offense was our best defense last night, and our kicking game sucked.

I'm not on the fire McDermott train yet, but I will say if they don't greatly improve the offensive players this off season (like better wide receivers) I'll definitely jump on that train. Allen is a beast, and they're handicapping him with the offensive weapons they're giving him. Harty and sherfield were absolute busts this season. Shakir and kinkaid were really the 2 bright spots. Who knows with Diggs. They need to invest heavily in the offense this off season 

 

If there is an offensive mind available that is an upgrade I would consider it like a Harbaugh. I am less interested in going the Belicheck route. I want to pair offensive mind with Allen to take team to the next level. Much easier to find someone on the defensive side versus the other way around.

It’s up to you! 

It's not my place and would directly out my source, unfortunately. I simply cannot

It's pretty messed up you would post this then. You shouldn't have said anything.

Well, IF the report of a mystery team being interested in Belichick but not having an opening is true maybe Pegula would do that.

 

To be clear, I would rather have Harbaugh but we're stuck right now. With Allen McDermott will always win enough games that "you can't fire the coach!" 

Sean McFontes

 

For those too young to know Wayne Fontes was the coach during Barry Sanders career who kept winning enough games that kept him back year after year.

Well you can point at a lot of individual plays. But overall the D could barely stop KC on any plays. That is beyond injuries and is about game plan. McD did not have an answer to what KC was doing. They could move the ball at will from the start. Change the players and o don’t see the result being that different. Kelce one on one with a clean release is not working if you have Bernard. Broken coverages in the secondary are happening without injuries. No sacks and minimal pressure is happening without the injuries. 

 

If we score a TD or the tying FG I have zero confidence KC doesn’t march down and score.

it's not messed up. it's to let people know the media in Buffalo are sitting on stories that they do not release.

 

in this direct case i cannot discuss this story because it would compromise the person who told me this which could lead to professional punihsment.

I continue to hold out HOPE that breaking news will come some time, probably TODAY, that McDermott has been relieved of his duties.

 

This place will meltdown, and everyone will say "wow, I didn't see THAT coming.  I really didn't."

 

If that news is coming, we only have a few hours of hope left.

 

If we make it to 5pm and it didn't come, it probably won't and we are stuck with McDimwit for another year.

 

I suppose there is always the chance of a bizarre, deadly Bible club accident, but thats's stretching it.

>9.5 yards per play.

5 third downs all game.

9 plays of 20 yards or more. 

a HORRENDOUS fake punt. 

 

 

Still not McDermott? God people

 

And while it didn't end up hurting us on the scoreboard, he made another clock management error in the first half when he took our first TO immediately after the play that got us down to the 13.  You don't need or want 44 seconds left at that point when you still have 2 TO's remaining and only have a handful of plays left at most. Should have let it run a down more before he took the first TO.  Gave the ball back to Mahomes with 28 seconds left.

It's all been said ad nauseam.  The whole organization has shite the bed.  They did the best they could but it's over.  There a lot of comparison's of Josh to Phillip Rivers and that's completely wrong.  The comparison is to John Elway.  You know how Denver finally won the Super Bowl?  Yeah, they changed regimes.  This is the way.

No one needed you to tell us that, most fans should surmise as much. As it is, this is a big LAMP.

All we need is Josh to dress up as McDermott for Halloween to complete the cycle.

McDermott is the reason we got this far. Firing him now would be the height of stupidity

I believe you mean the players (JA) got us this far in spite of their head coach.

"I know something everyone would be interested to hear, but I can't say" is the definition of a classic troll. If you're acknowledging you're famous for trolling, then I won't dispute it.

There is one major story that I hope makes it out this week that will make everyone realize is a nail in the coffin for McDermott. It is not my place to share this but it will show everyone that McDermott is not the leader of this team that he needs to be.

Can't imagine what it would be if praising the 9/11 terrorists didn't do it. He must have pictures of Pegula cheating on his wife or something.
