McDermott not in Top 10 of NFL coaches per PFF.
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to 14774's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think you're talking about his legacy which is fine - he has a better resume than McDermott. In the upcoming season...? I don't really see him as the #2 coach going into the season. Other than beating the chiefs backups in week 18, they lost their last 3 games and beat almost no one with a winning record all year. -
He's passing game coordinator for the Cowboys under Shottenheimer but i don't think he's going to call anything. His miami meltdown also probably didn't help my opinion of his playcalling. Like what are you doing running 92 offensive plays in that heat and passing way too often. The Bengals/Broncos games before his firing were also, very poorly called games - 8 RB rushing attempts against cincy, and just a total inability to manage clock was becoming a major issue.

Payton's ahead of him because of getting a rookie QB to the playoffs or whatever. But he was absolutely outcoached in the playoffs against buffalo to an almost embarassing degree. That was the popular "Upset alert" and they promptly got stomped. To me - PFF is supposed to be the "analytics" group, and this article didn't offer much of anything to back it up. -

Tomlin's one super bowl win involved Tom Brady's torn ACL, and a playoff upset of the colts by the chargers. -

He won coach of the year 2x... but he's also never won the division and missed the playoffs 3/5 times. -
Josh Allen in the NFL Hall of Fame

Manning is a 2x SB MVP which i think is gonna help him considerably. 5 road wins during those 2 SB winning seasons. -
Drew Brees reveals right arm 'no longer works'
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Big Turk's topic in The Stadium Wall
It's also pretty inevitable. -
While Baltimore, Philly, KC, and Houston are tougher matchups, and I'd probably put Tampa Bay and Cincy together in that next tier. 10 wins is saying they basically lose 5 out of those 6 games, and another 2 of the ones below. The only thing that'd give me pause is the fact that they play Balt, Philly, KC, TB, and Cincy all in buffalo. NYJx2 MIAx2 NEx2 NO @Atl @Car @Pitt @Cleveland Considering Buffalo was a perfect 10-0 at home in 2024, I have some doubts about them going 5-4 in the last season at Highmark. The last regular season loss in Buffalo was Denver in 2023, before that was Minnesota. 2023 home record 7-1 (1 lost home game to London), 2022 Home record 7-1, 2021 Home Record 6-3, 2020 Home Record 7-1. They're 35-6 at home since 2020.

I picked the Jets as the only sweep option since they play buffalo week 2 and week 18. 2 is coming off a primetime big week 1 game and is on the road. And 18 there's a pretty solid chance that the game doesn't matter much.

Drew Brees reveals right arm 'no longer works'
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Big Turk's topic in The Stadium Wall
Also this doesn't meet the threshold for me to consider it "heartbreaking". It's sad but cmon, guy made 270M, won a super bowl and SB MVP, and is going to be in the HOF. I'd trade the use of my right arm for the bills to do that, and i don't even play for them. -

My guess is nerve damage so any surgery likely involves neck/spine in addition to the arthritis of bones, damaged tendons and ligaments, etc. -
Ravens sign Jaire Alexander
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall
He's always feasted on bad defenses statistically speaking (he's not alone here, almost every player does). Last season alone in 4 games against - CINx2, Tampa, and NYG: 89/122 for 1209 yards 18 TDs and no interceptions. Another stat - they were 3-5 in the regular season when he throws the ball more than 30x - 3 wins against cleveland, cincy, and cincy - 5 losses to KC, Cleveland, Philly, Vegas, and Pittsburgh. You won't see many of those types of teams in the playoffs. I thought he mostly played pretty well last year to kinda kill the narrative that he can't perform in the playoffs. -

Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall
It wasn't an easy 2 pt conversion. Lamar double clutched instead of putting the ball where it needed to be as soon as andrews broke open. Yes he should have caught it, but you're throwing behind someone in a dead sprint to the sideline who now has to slow down to stay on the field and catch it. LJ is not without blame on that conversion. -
Are Fan Expectations Too High for Keon Coleman?
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to JohnNord's topic in The Stadium Wall
It's not just the lousy QBs he's played under (and they are... BAD), but also some fairly lousy coaching staffs. He has a reputation as a malcontent due to some issues with the Jets coaching and management, and was benched for a half last year in Cleveland. His contract pays less than the core STer's like sherfield and Hodge so from a risk perspective this is about as low as it gets. As a rookie and 2nd year player- Robert Saleh - Defensive coordinator who failed as a Head Coach. Mike Lafleur - Not the good one, fired for hackett and back working under an experienced playcaller Miles Austin - Inexperienced WR coach QBs - Wilson, Flacco, White With the Browns - Stefanski - Seems to be pretty meh so far, the only time the team has been competitive is when the defense was good. 2025 will be 3rd OC in 3 years. He calls the plays but seems to scapegoat others. Pretty sure he's only still employed because of cash-flow, as dorsey being fired resulted in the TE coach being promoted. AVP - 1 out of 6 seasons as OC has the passing offense been top 20. Dorsey - Looks to be a product of allen vs. elevating the offense. Chad O'shea - Long time patriot who's bounced around post-belichick. QBs - Watson, Flacco, PJ Walker, Thompson-Robinson, Driskel, Winston, Zappe -
Bills Top 5 single game passing performances
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall
MNF. On the road. NFC super bowl team from 2019. Top 5 defense. 32/40 375 4 TDs. That crazy highlight reel post that was just an absolutely perfect throw. While he did fumble... those don't count from a QB stats perspective according to MVP stat comparisons anyway 🙂 -
How many wins do the Bills get without Josh?
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Another Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Of course - just saying there's a number of winnable games on the schedule. And that doesn't factor in potential injuries to other teams on the schedule either such as Rodgers with Pit, or Burrow with Cincy. -

Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Another Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
1st in drives ending in a turnover %. 11th in drive scoring %. I don't think they were "horrific". Just mediocre with a pretty high variance due to turnovers. Lot of penalties too. Lot of new faces though so I'd assume McBeane recognized that need to get some impact players on defense. -

Antonio Brown in big trouble...again
Bleeding Bills Blue replied to Albany,n.y.'s topic in The Stadium Wall
I hesitate to blame this all on concussions. He seems to have had issues at every level of his career. -

Bleeding Bills Blue replied to JohnNord's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yep - i also think people tend to look at players numbers without context, and any evaluation of the other nuances and responsibilities of the position. -
Yeah, its a mess. Can't put them in prime time because then you're competing with NHL/NBA/MLB and even other things like Wrestling and reality tv. So now you're airing on weekend days like the NFL/NCAA but, there's still going to be some competition with other sports (plus playoffs for NHL and NBA) and you add in golf.
