Bringing him back this year is pretty much just like when we brought Jauron back in year 4 knowing exactly what we were going to get...so I guess in that sense you're right. 2 1 Quote

Shutting down the reigning MVP Lamar Jackson to clinch the first Bills AFCCG appearance since the 1993 season. Defensive masterclass. 3 Quote
Big Turk Posted January 25 Posted January 25 (edited) Let's just say that other coaches would disagree since he came up with blueprint Tennessee openly stated they used to beat Lamar in the playoffs and he also came up with the gameplan that was used last year against the Dolphins in week 3 to slow them down that took several weeks for anyone to copy, but after the Chargers stole it from us, it was copied by several other teams.

You lost half the posters here with the "magnum opus" reference in the thread title. The other half think it's a reference to an Icelandic strong man. 😹 3 Quote
BringBackFergy Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Really need to move on in life. With your question, He can be credited with every win and every loss. What’s his win/loss record after 4 straight AFC East titles? If substantially positive, there’s the answer. 1 1 Quote

ControllerOfPlanetX Posted January 25 Posted January 25 He sent the field goal team out against the Ravens to kick the game winner as time expired. At least, I think it was his idea. Quote
QB Bills Posted January 25 Posted January 25 1 hour ago, ProcessImproverMan said: His defensive coaching against Lamar and the Ravens in the 2020 playoffs win against them was great. Shutdown a Pro Bowl caliber QB who routinely burned opponents to 3 points. McDermott seems to have the Ravens number (beat them in 2022 too). That win in 2020 got us to the AFC title game. Allen didn't do much that game. Other than that, nothing. Allen has carried us in other post season victories. He didn't get the chance to choke away that game as Lamar didn't play in the 4th quarter. McDermott sucks. It's plain as day to most fans. Unfortunately the one person who can do something about it doesn't know any better. Quote
SirAndrew Posted January 26 Posted January 26 I think his first season was a showcase of brilliant coaching, minus the Peterman debacle. His defensive schemes were amazing, and this team won games they had no business winning. McD had players in the perfect position to make plays, particularly on defense. Eventually Josh Allen comes along, and that changes everything, unfortunately I don’t McD changed his philosophy enough to fit having an elite QB. Growth is crucial in all areas of life. McD seems like a great person, but I think he’s often too stubborn in his ways. 1 Quote

Mikie2times Posted January 26 Posted January 26 In the Lions Thanksgiving game we called a cover 0 blitz on 3rd down in a situation where we don't get the ball back if they convert. I'm not always a fan of a cover 0 late like that, but I agree, in that spot we had to force the issue. Which we did. Then we got the ball back and ran a full court press vs sitting on it. Allen connected on about a 40 yard rope and we walked it off. 1 Quote

What are Sabans. There are no best single moments in coaching. Its establishing a culture, and many other things that cant boil down to a "coaching moment" 1 Quote
philholbroo Posted January 26 Posted January 26 Leaving offense on field on 4th down instead of punting has actually been good. I really can't recall a time where I thought, i wish they would punt here instead. Flip side has not always been great when punting instead. Quote
