This thread is like your wife getting angry - without any particular reason - about something that happened 2 years ago and long since resolved.

I’m not a ‘fire McDermott” guy, but I blame him for this. Perhaps the most important part of an NFL Head Coach’s job is managing the egos in the locker room. He lets this one get out of hand, and by the time he tried to reel it in it was too late. I’m not a Vrabel fluffer like so may here, but one thing going for him is his giant personality that sucks all the oxygen out of the room. As an aside, McDermott should be let go now. Not because he’s bad, but because this team needs a new voice in the worst way.

You must have failed math !! You know it's one thing if you have lets say 8 maybe 10 injured players but for christ sake THIRTY EIGHT is not a "Excuse" !! Take in any business your 38 best employees that have made the business successful away and see what the business does, at best it's going to falter for a minute if for nothing else to get the new people up to speed . The Bills are NINE & FOUR & in the play off race with 38 injured players !! Second in their division with a small chance to still be AFC east Champs with out a full roster, beside S**Ting NFL gold bricks WTH do you want ? Oh yah a SB & the coach fired that's right WT*E !!!!!!!!

Agree, it was necessary for Josh's mental health and leadership of this team. Diggs has a pattern, he starts as the great teammate and then over times wears out his welcome. He was a godsend his first couple of years, as he was in Minnesota. He is still in his honeymoon period with the Pats-- that Diggs is awesome. But then... And notwithstanding all the issues with the WR room, the offense has been prolific without him by any objective standard. Would it be more prolific with the good Diggs-- almost certainly. But for Buffalo that ship has long sailed.

Josh was done with his nonsense. No way Beane takes that kind of cap hit without Josh on board.

So maybe edit the topic name?

I don't have too much objection to how roughing is called in the NFL. There are plays where you see the defender will let up on a QB hit and plays where the defender doesn't. The latter is what the NFL is trying to enforce. The same is true for "body weight" roughing fouls when the defender has to try not to land on the QB with his entire body weight. In both cases avoiding a foul is possible and refs want to see the defender attempt to lessen the force. It bears mentioning that it usually sucks watching a game with 2nd string QBing. The "roughing" calls I don't like are when they call a "hit to the head" when a defender's hand brushes against a QB's helmet. Too often such cases are not really roughing (excessive force) and aren't deserving of a personal foul, IMO.

I have a feeling this isn’t going to cut the event time down. Just more time for ad breaks and analysis. They’ll probably make a halftime show at the rate of viewership the draft draws in

yeah from what I am reading there has to be more to this than "he wanted out".

I'd say where McD has gotten this roster to is pretty dam good considering all that he has to work with . The older players that everyone complains about although not as good as they once were are performing & showing flashes like Jordan Phillips & Poyer . 9 & 4 and being in the wild card race into the play offs and still having a chance although slight as it may be to be the AFC east champs once again is pretty amazing ! I can only imagine if Ed, Hoecht, Max, and all of those that have been injured weren't . I believe this roster healthy could easily be 11 & 2 right now if healthy .

That might be the most elegant thing I've ever seen.

first round of playoffs....left Pitts on the bench over Ferguson.

There is a poster who has some behind the scenes info so if he wants to post it here or PM you he can but I don’t want to put it out there bc it was told in confidence. Anyway he wasn’t cut and we got a 2nd rd pick for him.

Yeah... it's pretty unreal that a small aircraft could land on top of a car driving down a 3 lane superhighway and NOBODY got a serious injury! I listened to that news broadcast several times but I can't quite make out if she's saying the woman was 57 or 67 years old... maybe somebody with better hearing could clarify that? Not that it makes any difference... just curious.

Oh Crist- this is my man:

No SCOTUS ruling grants the President immunity. If he went out tonight and knocked off a series of liquor stores and then escaped capture by returning to the White House he would still be subject to prosecution. Through Congress, not the courts per the Constitution. The House would bring articles of impeachment and the Senate would hold a trial and vote on a conviction. As we all know, we've been through this a couple times. What's of more concern is how the "resistance" is using lower court activist judges making political based rulings to "veto" Presidential directives and executive orders which later get overruled by higher courts. Throwing roadblocks and intentional obstruction through legal edicts that have little to no basis in the law that they expect won't hold up to legal inspection by higher courts. What many call the strategy of "lawfare". Under the premise the left is protecting the light of democracy through the dark winter. Which is in reality (as I've seen it described as) "using the legal system to produce legal outcomes the political left wants, not what the law, or the truth, or justice requires". Trump may be a total dick but that's what's really going on here. As for the Bills, sure the game doesn't officially end until the clock goes to zero. But that 3rd and 15 run for the 1st down effectively eliminated the Bengals chances of getting the ball back and scoring the necessary points to win the game. Which brought my blood pressure reading back down to normal.

Trump is making the same mistake as Biden - telling people the economy is great when everyone knows it is not based on pocketbooks issues.

He forced his way out. he left the team with a cap issue and a hole in the roster. he should be hated in Buffalo.

Indeed! Agreed!

Bills might as well call Kelly Services as Slay. Probably get someone for slightly above the minimum wage.

Just curious since we played both and lost to the Falcons and beat the Bucs, would this game affect the Bills deep in the weeds of tiebreakers for seeds?

Coincidentally, that's about the amount of time Spiller would spend running east, west, and south after he took the handoff. Net gain: -2 yards. 🙁

Because he didn’t want to be here. The organization was tired of his garbage and his brothers stupid tweets. Specifically, he wanted out.

Got it. thanks. yes, he was traded.... geez, what a mess
