    Some red flags for Mcd:

     

    1. Penalties- I am not saying that’s his fault as it’s the players Making the mistakes but at the end of the day it’s happening under his watch

     

    2. Clock management- He still puzzles me game in and game out on how he manages the clock on certain situations. Including wasting a lot of timeouts on stupid challenges 

     

    3. His defence- Rookie Injuried QB on the road and him and Frazier decide to sit back and play a soft shell? That was inexcusable.

     

    I Am not saying fire him now or anything like that, but he definitely has a lot of red flags IMO

     

     

    I think a lot of the penalties are ticky tack ***** that only gets called against us.  Not sure how many we had today, but the past two weeks refs called more penalties agains the Bills than the NFL average for BOTH teams in a game.  Most of those penalties were ***** calls.  I think all coaches make tactical mistakes.  Winning coaches get a pass, but they all make mistakes.  Just my opinion, but I tend to be an optimist.  I believe he and Beane were the first solid HC and GM hirings in a very long time.  I'll give them at least two more years before conceding defeat.

    A Question to his supporters.. yes I know he made the playoffs last year and many believe that should give him some leeway. I believe there is no doubt he gets another year, but a question for the supporters, is it the playoffs or do you geniuely believe he’s a good coach?

     

    He played today like Jauron would have and that is not the first time. I don’t think we would find many who think his game desicions are solid. And even if you think that having a defensive first coach is workable, is his lauded defense, his supposed strength really that good. Remarkably easy TDS to questionable offenses, in winnable games the last two weeks and several blow outs on his record. It should be at least called into question 

    He's a good coach.  We have a ***** team.  I give him and Beane two more years.  This team was a disaster both offensively and defensively when they took over.  We are getting better, but just not good enough yet.  O Line is still a mess.  Hopefully they address that and WR in the offseason.  

  3. Saw that one coming.  Offense was too inconsistent all second half and Jets were moving the ball easily.  It was only a matter of time.

    This place is going to be a den of misery this week, methinks.

     

    Why we're 4-9?  Wasn't like it was gonna make any difference if we won.   Last two weeks were both winnable games, but we are just not good enough.

    I thought the Bills again were undisciplined.  

     

    Refs are to protect the QB and while none were blatant have seen them called.

     

    Miami too had a # of penalties a well.

     

    The problem is, you watch NE and you know they'll be some ticky-tack call that goes in theior favour and thus when the Bills don't get it, fans are left bewildered.

     

    Was it as terrible as those on the board think?  No, but not great.

    It was pretty bad.  It started with the phantom PI and Roughing the passer calls on the same play, giving Miami a First Down and keeping their drive alive on the first score.  Neither was a penalty, but they called both and it got worse from there.

    Cheers.

     

    Every pissed off veteran could never watch, or attend, another NFL game and the NFL wouldn't even notice, feel it, or care.  They're still getting those advertising dollars.

    Bully for them.  I'm doing what I feel is right and that's all I can control.

    I'm sorry, but you're making no sense.  By boycotting the big box stores, supporting local mom and pops is EXACTLY what one would do.

     

    You're boycotting the NFL, but still watching the Bills.  That's just not how boycotts work.  Because every time you watch a Bills game, you're feeding the NFL piggy bank.

    I don't really give a rat's ass if you think what I'm doing makes sense.  I'm doing what I consider to be right and that's all I can control.

    If you support the Bills, you essentially support the entire league and if the NFL goes out of business as you hope for then bye bye Bills.  Your stance is rather disjointed.   Most people didn't give a hoot about kneeling and just to remind you some Bills' players knelt too.  In the grand scheme of things no one died over the protests that have all but disappeared. 

    Oh well.   Not watching the other games is my response and it DOES hurt the league.  Not enough I'll admit and if it did they wouldn't be so wishy washy about it.  I don't care what other people do, I do my thing and that is my personal response.

    As a Catholic, kneeling is 2nd nature to me. As a Marine vet, I served to protect the freedom to protest. Different strokes, I guess, huh?

    As a fellow Catholic, I too kneel to pray, not to protest.  Of course they have the right to do it and that is why we served.  You're right about that.  Because you CAN do something doesn't mean that you SHOULD however.  If you don't have a problem with it, then that's great.  I do and so do millions of other veterans.  There is an established protocol for the playing of the anthem and it does not involve kneeling in protest.

    As a veteran, I find it disrespectful for people to criticize a peaceful protest that has nothing to do with millionaire athletes being oppressed.  People don't go to games because their favorite teams suck; not because players knelt for a song.  And it didn't hurt the NFL at all.  TV networks are still giving them billions of dollars. 

    As a fellow veteran, I respect your opinion, I just happen to have a different one.   Of course they have a right to do it.  Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean that you should.  You're wrong about the reason people don't go to games though.  I have fellow veterans that are friends, some of which were season ticket holders who will not only no longer not buy tickets or go to games, they won't even watch.  And that's just in my little circle of friends.  The same thing is going on all over the country.  Millions of us find it disrespectful.  If you don't, then great, that's your right.

    Says a guy spending his time on an NFL team's message board.  Good take.

    Says the guy that supports his team and ONLY his team.  I used to watch a lot of NFL football.  Now I only watch the Bills.  Regardless, I don't approve of the protests and neither do millions of other Americans.  If you choose to, that's great, go for it.  It doesn't make my or anyone else's opinion worth any less.

    the kneeling (that almost doesn't happen anymore) before the games, most of which you never see on TV, makes the NFL virtually unwatchable? okay, got it.

    You are entitled to your opinion, but it is still going on, they just choose not to show it on TV.  Pretending it doesn't exist does not mean it's not happening.  If it doesn't bother you and you still wanna support these guys, then that's great.  It does bother millions of other Americans and the only NFL football that I watch anymore is my Buffalo Bills.  I won't support a bunch of millionaire athletes crying about being oppressed.  Again, if it doesn't bother you, then great.  As a veteran, I find it disrespectful to the men and women who have died in defense  of our country.  There is an established protocol for the playing of the anthem and it does not involve kneeling.
