Can’t make this stuff up. you need to cut them a little slack It's very uncomfortable living in the space where we have had the best quarterback for several seasons now and so little to show for it. that's why you see so many excuses about injuries, bad luck, execution errors etc...anything to keep at bay the uncomfortable reality that the guy in charge of the team from top to bottom is not up to the task. 1 Quote
BananaB Posted December 9 Posted December 9 After listening to McDs presser all I can say is the best play isn’t always the smart play. He keeps saying how they beat us at the line of scrimmage, so why the QB sneak? Even earlier in the game on I think the first run TD, they got stuffed and the sneak and had to do it again to get the TD. But basically, keeping the 3 timeouts to keep Rams from running time should have been #1 priority. Rather you be in control of the clock then them. And then 9 guys on the punt return. For a coach that demands detail how does this ***** keep happening? Also didn’t like how he threw shade at the O for starting slow, then went out of the way to say they stopped them on 3rd down on first drive if it wasn’t for penalty. His D gave up 17 points on 3 long time consuming drives to start the game. Quote

Every win and fans are chanting "Super Bowl!" and every loss the fans are chanting "Fire McDermott!" Yup, 44 points is just a figment of our imagination. Quote

SCBills Posted December 9 Posted December 9 Anyone downplaying the Rams offense is being disingenuous. They haven’t been healthy all season. Now they are, and Stafford was on a heater. Problem is, we’ve seen this song and dance before… elite QB and an offense that can run and pass, so our defense provides zero resistance. Combine that with a McDermott disasterclass at the end of the game and some random embarrassing fact like 9 men on the field for the final play as Josh Allen plays Superman and it’s Playoffs come early in narrative. 2 Quote

For those who are actively or passive aggressively defending the coaching in this game, do you think that the coaching put the team in the best position to win this game? do you trust this staff in a tight game, high-leverage situation? 1 Quote

Fortunately there isn't an elite QB with an offense that can run and pass except the bills lol Goff isn't elite and the ravens never can throw when it matters.. the Chiefs can't really run and I doubt we see the Rams 1 Quote

Correct me if I'm wrong: That Monday night game against Miami they had all those guys healthy and scored 15 points- And on top of it Miami was missing how many starters on defence, like 4? Quote

The defensive performance and allowing 44 points is certainly something the coaches should be criticized for. I'm with you on that. The end of the game sequences, when the game was basically already lost unless a miracle happened, is what is being overreacted to. That's what this thread is about. 1 Quote

Yes, this game was lost by the D line, not coaching. the coaches need to find a way to overcome their weakness. it might not be possible. Quote

My opinion but I'd say more specifically our DT's are making zero plays. The ends have to worry about rb's inside and jet sweeps outside plus try to get to the QB. Our DT's seem incapable of beating the guy in front of them and dropping a rb or getting to the QB. I said it before we got over 15 sacks from our DT's last year this year we have 4 so far. 1 Quote

What do you think he did well tonight? See here’s the thing. I can answer what Benford did well tonight, despite the defenses poor performance. I can answer what Josh did well tonight. Or Shakir. Or Mack freaking Hollins. And yet everyone weeping crocodile tears for the poor, maligned, defensive HC that got ripped apart AND bungled the end of game situation cannot answer a SINGLE THING he did well tonight. lmao. 1 2 Quote

And despite the DL going MIA again (‘sup, Beane) if McDermott didn’t crap himself (again), the Bills are kicking off, down 3, with 1:40 left and 3 timeouts the question of why the Bills played a soft zone for much of the game is also one for the coaches Quote

Just FYI, entering this week, the Rams were 20th in points scored. He clapped so hard his hands became bruised. McDermott had to ice his hands down after the game !
