I agree with you.

 

Problem is we had 2 deep safeties on that last play when they needed a few yards to attempt the FG

 

Complete failure by the defensive coach 

Also gave up that 3rd and 15 and stood tall on 4th and 1 but yea, i get it..

[JBI$111]

This coaching staff is garbage and has been for a long time. Just enough in a bad division to get to the playoffs but constant poor decisions and completely clueless!

This loss is from the guy in charge of all decisions of this team lol ...Brady is another scapegoat in a long line of scapegoats....what remains is McDermott yet same heartbreaking defeats in the final moments of big games and it's not the players....it's coaching decisions PERIOD

He turned this pathetic bunch of third string defenders around to bring us back into the game.

This is almost as bad as 13 seconds in KC

No

Unfortunate, but no, not nearly as devastating as a chance to beat KC in the playoffs.

Poor coaching in both for sure, but this pales in comparison

Shades of 13 seconds with the coaching decisions on our last offensive possession. Oh, and the concern about our receivers was absolutely legitimate. 

What were they supposed to do given that running would have also resulted in a punt to midfield or worse vs a kicker who can make 65 yarders? Need to get a first there.

Worst WR room in the league. Texans were begging us to take that game. Failure all around.

Bills are still the best of the AFC LEast

Had to go to work, but just saw the box score... How was Allen 9/30 for 131 yards? 

 

That's abysmal, like completely horrendous. 

 

Crazy that there was even a chance to go to OT at that point, which of course poor coaching ruined anyway. 

10 dropped balls, never seen a collective group of WR that can't catch a football

Coaching did suck, but we also had arguably 4 of our top 10 (15) players out. 

 

oh this excuse again.  no other team with injuries in the nfl. 

[jcamm1966]

Keeping Hamlin cause of last year is stupid, cut him loose, get Cooper here on Monday

[Dr.Mantis_Toboggan]

How many times can we just watch McDermott get out coached when it really matters, the moments when good teams become great???
 

Not like you can hand the reigns to the guy who just dialed up 3 pass plays out of his own endzone with 30 seconds left and no timeouts left in regulation, in a tie game, either…

Complain all you want about the end of game, but had the Bills gone run run run punt the result would've been the same. With Houston having all 3 timeouts and us pinned at the 4, we HAD to get a first down just to ensure overtime. 

 

There are PLENTY of things to complain about here, but the end of game is not one of them.

Whaaaat? They wouldn't have had a timeout left and we likely would have gained at least 3-6 yards, thus making the punt go further back. This was terrible terrible end of game coaching, and terrible coaching all day long. Really really bad day for everyone, including Josh.

[bills6969]

I just hope Josh is OK.  He definitely was concussed.  Can’t believe they let him back in.  Head injuries could ruin a career (I.e Tua)

Although the loss sucks, the Bills came back, so that's a positive 

Yay. I feel so much better. 😂

I guess you could have bled the timeouts but then we would  be hearing about conservative coaching.  

Everyone would’ve been mad we didn’t take one shot but once we took the shot and got an opi we were pretty much forced into that

McDermott was like “Im supposed to go for it here, I know because everyone got mad at me when I didn’t against Philly” he has no nuance to his decisions

 

it really felt like that.

[Jerry Jabber]

This group of WR's are not going to cut it. I'd keep Coleman and Shakir, then get rid of the rest. 

[Billyhouseman]

So if McDermott just ran it 3 times into the line and forced Houston to use all their timeouts, you'd at the very least gain 3 to 5 yards, have a better punt, and Houston wouldn't of been able to do that dump pass to get closer....how's this not a fireable offense???
