Maybe for McDermott's sake, It was a player that called the time out.

McDermott has to go at some point. Problem is Josh is too good so he’ll keep his job. Just sad we are wasting Josh on McDermott.

So many bad coaching calls. Two to start.

 

1) A QB sneak when you can’t burn a timeout?!?!? Really Joe!?

 

2) Having a returner on that last punt? Put everyone on the line to rush and block! You aren’t gonna have enough time to return a punt.

 

There are so many more too.

He had time to return the punt though 🤣

I just don't have any confidence that McDermott will make good decisions when the game is on the line. Never should have accepted the penalty, never should have allowed the sneak from the 1.

On Detroit nothing you can do next week we'll have Coleman and Kincaid back considering how bad the defense was Alan was incredible I think everyone knew that this was a game we probably were going to lose it really doesn't hurt us people who think we had a shot at the one seater crazy

[Success]

You don't call a time out there.

 

And I'm going to write it again, in case McD reads this:  you don't call a time out there.

I put 90% of the blame today on McDermott.  Zone wasn’t working you can’t refuse to change the entire game.  They dropped 44 points on us because we never adapted.  That’s on coaching.

 

Sure some players were flat and Milano might not be himself yet.  But we had zero pass rush and soft zone and Stafford didn’t even have to try.

[oldmanfan]

The Rams would have went for it on 4th regardless; blame the rush 4/zone there.  Didn’t matter if you take the penalty.  The sneak has worked all year, and if we had thrown for it then MacVay is more aggressive on his calls.  We hadn’t stopped them all game; the idea we would at the end is around the 3% Tommy kept screaming about.

[fergie's ire]

Have we changed our mind about Mcdermott again? Three losses this year and two are the direct result of poor coaching decisions at the end of the game.  Such an annoying way to lose a good game.

That was one of the biggest mistakes I’ve seen in my football watching life and I’m 45

Bad timeout/playcall.

 

But these refs messed up a lot of calls, in key situations.  

 

I support our men.   When these refs make an appearance in Buffalo, and they will, I'm ready to verbally abuse to the greatest degree possible.

1. This team does not deserve Josh Allen

2. D should have to take a bus back to Buffalo. Effing putrid

3. should the Bills be lucky enough to make it to the SB, this is the kind of game you should expect. 

That’s kind. They should each have to drive separate vehicles back.

QB sneak is a terrible call in that situatio

[jayg]

The offense is Super Bowl caliber and the defense isn't.  There,  I feel better.   

[sven233]

Allen had 424 Yards and 6 TDs......  and he has to take a loss because of his "defensive specialist" head coach.....

 

Just insane.

 

But hey, great game offense.  Not taking away from anything you did today.  The defense can go kick rocks, although they would probably miss the rocks and fall over.  I'm sure McDermott would still be clapping for them, though.

If you saw Josh talked to McD after and covered his mouth. He probably said “ya messed up on the sneak”

[Straight Hucklebuck]

The timeout is going to be the talking point after the game as it should be, but how many freaking times do you have to watch Stafford throw to Nucua on 3rd down before you do anything about it?
