It would work like this:
Sean, if we retain you we'll be independently be making all of the hiring decisions regarding your staff.
If that is not something you can live with, then I respect your principles but don't let the door hit ya' where the good lord split ya'.
lolthis all assumes he’s worth keeping. After last nights uninspired mess, a strong argument can’t be made that he is.
how bout hire a guy who can bring in coordinators who aren’t sycophants he can toss under the bus when the Bills perennially fall short of expectations?-

If I kept him, McD would never make another coordinator hire again.
how many HCs are/have been prohibited from choosing their coordinators. I don’t see how that would work.
McD is a problem. Keeping him doesn’t solve that problem.
-
The players like him as a guy, but they other tahn zJsoh and Cook, I don't think they are motivated by him to excel. Perfect example is Coleman--why on earth would a guy like that, with everyone expecting him to take the next step, would he need to be a healthy scratch multiple times for behavioral issues? Why would it happen even once??
These guys are not inspired by McD, clearly they don't fear him as a leader. I think he's losing the locker room. He's gotta go.

Both coordinators are gone on day 1.
That probably solves half the Bills problems in 5 minutes.
McD will just replace them with 2 more jamokes already in the building.
Lather, rinse, repeat. Or fire the guy already. Time for the Bills to get off the McD treadmill.

The Jags 29 points were largely aided by their special teams and defense, as opposed to their offense doing much.You're right, 1 TD was a return. Their Defense gave up 26 unanswered points in just over a quarter--no aid there.

This is also the best defense in the league. Even if you stop their pass rush, which we came nowhere close to doing, they have two studs at CB too. Combine that with our crappy WRs, turned into a recipe for disaster. If it weren’t for our defense finally showing up in the 2nd half, we wouldn’t have had a shot at the end.
The mediocre Jags, with one Offensive weapon (Etienne--Thomas isn't lighting it up this year) put up 29 points (and blew a late 3rd Q 29-10 lead) on this Defense a week ago.

To be fair he was tasked by McD & Brady with constructing a line that could run bock effectively and he has done that. And this is another example of how the Bills roster has been deliberately constructed to take the ball out of Allen's hands in the mistaken belief that when called upon, Allen even with inferior & mismatched offensive players around him can throw a switch and play superman. Only a defensive minded coach and GM would think that this was the best way to build a roster around a consensus top 3 QB talent.
The fact is that McD & Bean do not fundamentally understand what Allen brings to the table and how best to use his talents to win championships. It's almost as if they're doing the exact opposite of what would work best. It's gross mismanagement of a roster and I can't imagine any offensive minded coach screwing this up in the way McD/Bean have.
.
I agree with the bolded...but it can't come at the price of pass protecting the best QB in the NFL. This isn't the Eagles, with a mediocre, gun shy passer behind center that their OC has to plan around.
This O-line has its ride or die supporters here, but guy like Brown and McGovern and Torrence, Van Dermark and Sedrick VPG are just warm bodies looking to get Josh killed. Dawkins is really good sometimes or he sucks, like last night.

Your refusal to ever accept an L is almost admirable…
An L against a fact free argument?
Who would?

Even on run plays where the O line is good you can almost give more credit to #85 & #41 for the big run plays. Last season was as much about Allen's elite escapability as the O line being great at pass blocking ad this season hey have clearly regressed.
As I loom at the Bills roster construction from 30,000 feet I see a team that:
* Made no effort to upgrade the WR room with above average play makers.
* Focused on building a TE room that was better at run blocking then pass catching. They did this to the extent that their best pass catching TE when healthy is barely on the field for 50% of the snaps.
* Focused on creating a very good run blocking O line at the expense of it's pass blocking ability.
All of this has been done in service to McD's belief that this will result in the complimentary football needed to win a SB. So McD & Bean have structured a roster that is counter intuitive when you have a QB like Allen. Making matters worse after almost every season the majority of the FA & Draft assets are thrown at the D and yet the D has continually declined and has been the primary reason for losing playoff games.
turns out Kromer is a bum the second time around too-

Said it many times before---this O-line sucks. One half decent player the rest slow and without significant skill.

Owners to Roger Goodell a few weeks ago:
"Who on the USA Today Staff do we have on our payroll? I need him to do a piece building up the international games to make it appear they're a monumental success."
"Yes, that's what we need. Soon....the NFL will own the sporting world!!"

So you’d rather play against Burrow than Flacco? Got it.
No you don't get it. As I've stated a few times now, Neither one, despite scoring a ton of points, can overcome the worst Defense in the NFL.
I didn't think it was that tricky...

We have already seen this version of Flacco on 3 other teams. He crashes and burns after a few weeks every time. Kinda like Fitz
What would their record be with "crash and injured". Flacco to this point? They are averaging 29 ppg even with that stinker of his last week.

There were multiple people, as recently as last week, calling for the Bills to hire Gruden.

When you look at who isnt signed for next year, it is going to be more defense.

If he can do that, he can surely lead this Bills team to a few straight Super Bowls.
maybe you are responding to a thread from 8-9 years ago?

Not last week...he sucked, which is typical with him...lights it up the first few games then crashes hard when DCs figure out his tendencies and limitations.
lol he had a bad game. the point is he could be at least 4-1 if the Bengals had an NFL caliber Defense.
Burrow would have had no different outcome had he not been injured. He was no better in Week 1 than Flacco last week.
The Bengals record would be the same with Burrow to this point.

Honestly, he is hardly the only one. I truly believe usage is rampant in the league, especially hgh. He just got caught.
Oh i agree.
You have to be really pretty stupid to get caught, hence this is a bad signing.

Then why are they still on NFL teams, getting playing time?
The OP contention that my post was intended to refute:"There hasn't been one player that they drafted that is no longer on this team that is remotely any good, outside of Edmunds"
Try to keep up -
There is a huge influx of new cheap guys into the league every draft. If a guy is not "remotely any good", teams will choose the cheap fresh blood who might potentially develop, over vets who are "not any good". Do you really want to argue that point? This is especially true of late rounders/UDFA.
Therefore, if a guy is looking for a hat, and teams keep signing him, we can assume they think he is at least "remotely any good".Also try to keep up - you can exclude them. You can exclude ST players. And the contention that "There hasn't been one player that they drafted that is no longer on this team that is remotely any good, outside of Edmunds" is still disproven because it only takes one more player.
Even the OP admits Teller is a stud and I think he just acknowledged that Harrison Phillips has not spent 4 years playing for the Jets and was in fact a full season starting DT 3 years on two very good Vikes teams (and one that was missing a QB). Q E D.
You're assumption is that all NFL players, simply by virtue of playing in the league, are all of superior talent. Compared to the rest of the population this is obviously true. Otherwise it clearly makes no sense. There countless examples of "NFL bad" players who have bounced around the league, "getting playing time". That the average player only lasts 3 years in the league also exposes your take as intuitively wrong.

Wait, Gruden knows what a sideline sheet is?!? What an incredible watch. I think he would make an excellent HC candidate should the Bills choose to move on from McDermott. If not, I saw a video of Marty Morhinweg explaining why they don’t allow the hip drop tackle!! How are guys like this still available?!?
the guy is just explaining the sideline sheet to people who don't know what it is........

Does it really matter at this point? I am sure the Pats will get to play against Flacco, because of course they will.
Flacco isn't the Bengals problem--he's playing well. Against the Bears and the Jets, the Bengals put up 80 points, and lost. Not sure what point your are making with this post.
Will Josh Allen want to stick around for a rebuild?
