    Moderators, this is exactly the type of thread that should be locked and the op should be given a time out ban for. even the title is a personal attack on another poster.  This is not about football, or the Bills, it is purely an undisguised personal attack on another poster. SDS, is this what you want this board to be?

      Just looking at the AFC standings.   We have two games to play against the second place Dolphins who are only two games ahead of us.  Baltimore who owns a tie breaker is only a game and a half ahead.  Titans who we own a tie breaker with looks to be firmly in second place in the South.  Dark shadow in the silver lining is the Chargers are firmly in second place in the West and uncatchable at this point unless they collapse.  Certainly a mountain of work ahead for the Bills and no guarantees of anything but until I looked I expected more gloomy news.  With a decent chance at the second Wild Card do we just throw in the towel on playing for today?  

    I think 5 wins is the ceiling this year.  The Jets just happened to suck more than the Bills suck!

    How actions will speak louder than words. If they release Barkley, and keep Nate then like I don’t know. 

     

    I filly expect that Peterman will be gone, but he isn’t just going to go out there and crush a guy in a presser.

    I know, I know.  I agree with you.  I think they will cut him.  They have a legit reason based on performance of Barkley now.

    Today’s game does not ease my concerns about McDermott

    It’s a nice win, feels good to have one. Did many good things, but also something interesting came to light I think. This is not a tank and it never was. A QB came right off the street, limited playbook and played a competent game. Easy opponent sure, but competent nonetheless. Blaming the talent holds a little less weight now 

     

    To me it’s proof that they were attempting to win all along and honestly believed, first that Mccarron couldn’t, then that Peterman could, then Anderson. Didn’t see fit to retain or acquire a true no 2 QB behind Allen at a minimum. Not because they weren’t trying to win, but because they honestly thought they had one. So I still worry about how they will handle the rest of the offense. Cross your fingers 

    Lucky, your opinion doesn't matter to me, but thanks for sharing

    Coach Length To Put Program In

    A lot of people have been commenting that perhaps McD and Beane should be relieved or at least one changed by seasons end. Here is a look at how long coaches have had to put their program in (for better or worse):

     

    1996-97- Marv sees Kelly retire and follows suit next season after Todd Collins doesn't pan out

    1998-2000 DC Wade Phillips steps in and the team trades for Rob Johnson to be the future while adding longtime vet Flutie. Without rehashing Ralph basically forced Wade's at QB hand to the point it was easier to leave then stay. During this time Jerry Butler runs the show with a pretty strong staff including AJ Smith who turned later helped turn the Chargers around with Butler. (3 years)

    2001-2003 Tom Donahoe is brought in to be the new GM after Butler resigns. Donahoe at the time was highly regarded for his work in Pittsburgh and hire's hot DC candidate Greg Williams to be the new head coach. At the time it was believed Williams could bring the defense more success while helping to smooth out the QB situation. Johnson flames out but the Bills get Bledsoe from NE. Williams in the end is relieved but was able to bring his program in. (3 Years)

    2003-05 Donahoe brings in Mularkey who has some relative success both never gets a chance to put together a full team due to QB controversy and mgmt change with Donahoe being replaced by Marv. (2 Years)

    2006-2009 Dick Jaruon gets the longest chance of any Bills coach with over three and half years to get his team and QB with Edwards being the guy he thought could work. (3 and 1/12 years)

    2010-2012 Chan Gailey gets his shot but never gets enough talent on defense nor a chance to pick a QB of his liking. EJ was after Chan by Nix/Whaley (3 years)

    2013-2014 Doug Marrone chooses to leave after building a decent program 2 years in despite Manuel's flame out (2 years)

    2015-2016 Rex is given a roster with a lot of talent but still chooses to remake it as his own. Taylor being brought in is a plus given prior QB problems but his defense never gets a chance to be fully established due to injury and being relieved just 2 years in (2 years)

     

    Overall only Jauron and Williams ever really got a chance to put their true program and QB out there. The rest the cord was pulled before they got a chance or they left. The biggest thing with this you see is how many times the deck had to be refreshed and altered because of a new coach. I really think McD and Beane should get four years just for the fact I want to see a coach for the first time in over 2 decades to truly put his stamp on a team for better or worse.

    You wrote a lot of stuff in here.  I'll simplify it for you.  You aren't ***** without a QB!
