Crossman he inherited and was gone after year 2. So that's 2 of the 4 within McD's first 2 years. Dorsey, yup but was also gone fairly quickly and in time to salvage the season. Dennison was McDermott's 4th choice. It isn't an opinion that getting decent OCs to come to Buffalo to coach Tyrod Taylor was difficult. It's a proven fact. His first choice was Mike McCoy though who sucks far worse than Dennison. Dennison is a good coach who knows football but is a pretty meat and potatoes play caller, McCoy is trash. 2nd choice was Rob Chudzinski but he decided to stay with the Colts. 3rd choice was Brad Childress, who might have been a decent short term option, but the Chiefs wouldn't let him interview (this was the era when every assistant job was considered a lateral move). 2 Quote
Saxum Posted September 20 Posted September 20 It is a good film but they have had good films on coaches who have been let go. They need a satire one of Rex with a mask on being lackadaisical talking about hiring coaches to do the job so he can do the things he wants to like watching baseball games. The Bills won't but maybe someone will put together one to demonstrate their production and directing skills and post it on Youtube or on a football blogger site. Quote

It won't take a ton of success for the Bills in the next year or so for both of them to be right at the top of interview wish lists in the next couple of hiring seasons. 4 1 Quote

The Dennison hire was completely odd annd never seemed like a long term from the start. Unlike Leslie Frazier he had no connections to McDermott. Also his West Coast offense was a poor match for a QB like Tyrod. McDermott gets a ton of crap got passing on Mahomes but it’s no wonder he didn’t want to place his coaching future with Rick Dennison grooming his franchise QB. Quote

Cmon man, haven’t you heard, Babich was only hired to be the sacrificial lamb. Why would he be hired over a DC with play calling experience? Get with the program. 1 Quote

ghostwriter Posted November 24 Posted November 24 Babich has been incredible. I don’t mind @Mr. WEO hot take, we all have them and we’ve all been wrong. The fact that we’re all so critical of each other here is the reason why traffic here is dwindling. 1 1 Quote

Do you think McDermott hired Babich as DC because he felt like we were in for a bad season and babich would serve as the scapegoat 1 Quote
Richard Noggin Posted November 24 Posted November 24 If I declare my appreciation for recent Bills defensive success, do I get to emphasize Babich's impact on them prior to the 49ers matchup? He must have novel approaches in mind. We must have unique gameplans available to us. We allow for major changes, as necessary. 1 Quote

Use to be the same with RB's, back in the day RB's use to say they would need to get into the flow of the game by getting quite a few carries under their belt to know how the opposition was going to play them and use that in some ways against them for big gains in the ground game . But those days for now are gone until it comes back around to a coach and player tandem that realizes the back needs to get warmed up in order to figure out a D and how to run against them then it will come full circle, in some ways like the running game has this season .

The fact that we’re all so critical of each other here is the reason why traffic here is dwindling. I do got to respectfully ask- How do you think babich has been incredible? The bills before the chiefs game were the 18th ranked scoring defence, which is wild to me for a Sean McDermott defence. I get they have had injuries, but under almost every year the bills have had major injuries on defence . (Last year being worse) The turnovers the defence gets are A plus, but I'm genuinely curious how fans and media think babich has been awesome. Is it context because it's his first year on the job? Is it because the turnovers? In saying that, I do think he had by far his best game against the chiefs last week as it was impressive Quote
