…and Barry Switzer, and the list goes no. It takes a little good fortune as well. People give too much credit to a “Super Bowl Winning Coach”, imo. Guys like Harbaugh and Tomlin are not the greatest, most brilliant coaches, but things fell right for them.

this is a great stat and an encouraging one too.

McDermott wears a different coat, shirt and hat every week. Could be wardrobe thieves?

Good. I have enough AFC East Division Champion sweatshirts and tees, going back to 1990. I need a new one that shows AFC East... 2nd Place, 2025

Kinda like saying the Bills are over... some think so... but they have 1 of the best 4 players on the planet and they will be loving a 3rd place schedule next year as well... their issue is going to be they now have 2 teams in conference that are gonna be good... no more 6-0 or 5-1 in conference... similar to us and the Pats... I would take it...

Purple haze all in my brain Lately, things just don't seem the same Actin' funny but I don't know why 'Scuse me while I kiss the sky

This is basically how I feel but I have optimism because this year with no Chiefs, Burrow and maybe even Baltimore to get in our way, Josh Allen can still win it all in spite of not great coaching

Agree --- if Jax loses to Denver though, and Houston wins out (which I think will happen). Then Houston has the tie-breaker (neutral on Div & common games, but they'd have the Conf tie-breaker ---- similar to us w/NE if we hit scenarios).

Growth as a coach? Only 3 current HCs have longer tenure than McD. Is there something different about his this year? We'll find out come playoff time....

Two questiosn for my fellow Bills fans - have you ever come across a list of "street" FAs where players like MJ Devonshire appear? I've always wondered how the NFL tryout world operates. How do players get a tryout?

I think he realized you can't go from Clark Kent to Superman without having a pair of glasses on.

Yes that will be posted within the coming days. I am still working on all of the numbers for that but I did get out the distribution percentages. I will put out an update once that is all figured out

is this team tougher?

For anyone touting the virtues of McD, one of his most important tasks is hiring the OC & DC. So what does he do working with a team that has Super Bowl aspirations? He promotes from within…guys he can control easier, instead of hiring established experienced coordinators who may question McD more than two OJT guys who are just thankful for the promotion. Babich & Brady…are these guys to lead you to a SB? Yeah…McD is really growing as a HC. 👎🏻

This is why it’s good to lose games against NFC opponents, as I was once told

I think it is morphing/going to morph into something like that as I described above. However, I think itll get cut-off around 90 teams. The rest will be some sort of I-AA/FCS type existence.

2025 McDermott is a kamikaze compared to 2019 McDermott. IMHO, his biggest failing is stale ideas on defense, but I'm not a big enough film nerd to support that with specifics. He seems like he's trying to run a much more aggressive, pressure-based scheme than our roster is tuned for, especially in the postseason. Bosa may be the only DL player who is authorized to get pressure on the QB as their first priority, instead of gap integrity.

Absolutely correct. But to me, it's not a strong enough indictment of the organization. He mentions effort and culture. Haven't had that in years. And I believe it's largely due to lack of accountability. Letting Kevyn Adams hang around the last 2 or 3 years is criminal. Don't hate the players, hate the game. The players are going to tread water right along with the entire organization. We're extremely close to some of the stars clamoring to go elsewhere. And who could blame them.

Win a Superbowl. You have one of the best QBs in the past 50 years. Don't care if McD shows up on the sidelines dressed as a chick. Really an indictment of Beanes roster mismanagement.

Sherman was hilarious if you were in the target audience

What I’ve noticed is an evolution since 2021. He is less conservative, and more willing to take chances. Especially on 4th down. Also more willing to call cover zero blitzes. Although I’m not sure he’s calling these, I think he’s approving them. I don’t think the 2021 McD would ever go for it on 4th and 4 on his side of field in the 1st half.

If I’m being totally realistic I think we lose again to the pats this week. They had a bye week and are at home. I think we beat the Browns and Eagles and then rest starters for the final week with a secured wild card bid. I would love to get the 1 seed and if we do and no chiefs to play I think we get to the SB but being a wild card team this year won’t be bad either. Right now we don’t have to play Mahomes, Lamar or Burrow in the playoffs. Allen is by far the best QB left and should carry us through regardless of seeding or McD incompetence this year

i think there is internal finger pointing going on at one bills drive. i don't know if it's some like normal good competitive level, or a negative destructive level, but i think it's there and bigger than before.

With the traffic it gets, WP could chuck a few paid ads on the site and probably cover their nut easily. Its not my responsibility that they are too stupid for that.

Well, Jaguars losing out is another avenue for the Chiefs
