All Miami draft picks that were allowed to walk instead of getting a 2nd contract while they threw more money at Ramsey and Hill, and extended a mid-tier QB. It's like they got all those picks in the Tunsil trade and then threw them all away. That is how you destroy a franchise. Edited September 13 by DrDawkinstein 3 1 Quote

GunnerBill Posted September 13 Posted September 13 I think he is an example of why despite the league's undoubted pivot to offense not every good offensive mind and playcaller is suited to being a Head Coach. I say it all the time but when hiring a Head Coach for an NFL franchise the absolute #1 criteria for the job has to be their leadership ability. That sustains in the medium and longer term better than being a great Xs and Os guy. I respect the hell out of what McDaniel has done with Tua and that Miami offense. But I'm not sure I want him leading my franchise. 2 4 1 Quote

When's the last time they beat a team with a winning record? Dallas last year,us in that heat stroke game, and that huge comeback against Baltimore the week before the heat stroke game are the only three I can remember since McDaniel has been there. So since like mid September 2022 there’s only been one. All 3 of those wins were by 4 points or less they’ve gotta be like 3-14 now in those games Edited September 13 by Generic_Bills_Fan Quote

I’ve always said he was among the brightest offensive minds in the league but that there were some questions about him as a HC. Tua’s injury aside, I didn’t think he coached a very good game last night and it was the latest example of his team not rising to the occasion versus top competition. 3 Quote

He’s starting to feel closer to Chan Gailey now where he came up with a good system that worked for awhile but then got figured out and he can’t adjust. Quote

All 3 of those wins were by 4 points or less Technically you are correct but both the Baltimore and Bills game were kind of early season flukes. The Cowboys team of last season had a winning record but was very much flawed as evidenced by their first round beat down by GB. I think the larger point is the team’s record against playoff teams is very bad. Quote

Oh yea I don’t disagree at all…I think they win those bills/ravens games like 10% of the time and it was just their lucky day even with those wins their record against good teams is pretty dismal they’ve gotta be like 1-11 since early 2022 the only thing that’s kept them afloat is they don’t have a letdown against bad teams very often but last year they lost that titans game at the worst possible time Edited September 13 by Generic_Bills_Fan Quote

Howard was probably washed but he also made plays against buffalo. Jackson's an athletic lineman but he ain't physical. They extended him. 1 Quote

From a purely wins/losses, playoff appearances standpoint he deserved the extension. The guy is a fantastic offensive football mind. That said, when the camera caught Hill and Waddle on the sideline laughing during the 4th quarter last night, it was a reflection of what's wrong with McDaniel and the Dolphins. Cocky, sarcastic, aloof, and soft. For a guy who seems to think he is the smartest guy in the room, his self-awareness is quite poor. Edited September 13 by thenorthremembers 1 1 Quote
Cheektowaga Chad Posted September 13 Posted September 13 The end of half decisions were mind boggling That and the complete lack of adjustments, it reminded me of watching bills coaches of the past against the pats. Coached scared 2 Quote
GunnerBill Posted September 13 Posted September 13 I've just watched his post game presser and given the shock over Tua maybe I should cut him some slack but at one point he said "I think about what if we'd won this game by 30, what would that mean?" WTF is this dude taking? 2 1 Quote
Saxum Posted September 13 Posted September 13 2 hours ago, TFBillsfan said: I was surprised by that drive as well but the vibes seemed to be they were very worried about another turnover as the Bills forced them to dink and dunk. If Tua tried to force anything, it would have resulted in an INT. I expected Poyer's inside knowledge and experience with defense would have helped them significantly on how offense should attack it but maybe they just do not have the weapons to consistently execute it. 7 minutes ago, GunnerBill said: I've just watched his post game presser and given the shock over Tua maybe I should cut him some slack but at one point he said "I think about what if we'd won this game by 30, what would that mean?" WTF is this dude taking? Substitute 'think' with 'dream' and it makes more sense. They have blown out a number of teams. Even in day game with full sun on Bills players the Phish did not demolish Bills that way and as been talked about in press and this board Bills rarely lose to a blowout under Coach McD. Quote
