    I don't pay for the Athletic and didn't see it mentioned in the first few pages of this thread.

     

    Are the 4 "sources" saying McD has 0 chance of being fired during the season ?

     

    Or are they saying he has 0 chance of being fired at any point this offseason ? 

     

    There's a very big difference there.

     

    I could tell you but then the Athletic Police would have to kill me.  Plan B…open your wallet once a month, pull out $1, and send it to the Athletic. Problem solved.

    I posted this in another thread but very relevant here:

     

    McDermott (and beane) are very very involved in the design of the new stadium. Specifically any area the players will be (locker room, warm up areas, training areas, etc). So it’s no coincidence they are both signed through the new stadium opening. So those of you wishing McDermott gets let go due to the team’s record are wishful thinking. However, the absolute number 1 priority of ownership is the new stadium and the finances related to it. This includes ensuring there are $0 of overruns(team is responsible) and most importantly, recouping Terry’s investment through the sale of PSLs. Legends sold the Bills on the fact that they will be able to sell PSLs in the Buffalo market to get Terry’s investment back. 

     

    This is the billsmafia’s chance to make a statement about McDermott. The only chance the fans have of a head coaching change is if it poses a risk to the team being able to sell PSLs. The fans have leverage. If they want a McD gone they need to make sure PSLs are on the line. Maybe a good old fashion billboard letting OBD know it’s McD or PSLs. 

    Kind of hard for the fans to make a statement about tix/psl for new stadium when they haven’t gone on sale yet, and no announced date when they will. 
     

    As far as BB & McD having input into player areas, what do you expect?  They are currently heading up the football side of the house. Shouldn’t make their jobs anymore secure.

    Every player falls under the NFL's Personal Conduct Policy. If the NFL suspends him before March 2024 his guarantees could be voided and he could be released. I really don't want to make light of a domestic violence situation, but it's possible the team may get bailed out of this horrific contract.

    Agree.  Horrible what happened to her, possibly very fortunate for BB.

    I have to imagine Von would be able to land a top analysist gig if he retires.  But I'm thinking he comes back.  He clearly wants to prove that he can beat this and be dominant again.  Can't really blame him for that.  

    Based on what?

    I want to add, “honest officiating.” Since the inclusion of legalized gambling on NFL games, there’s no way you can convince me that it isn’t affecting outcomes. Additionally, on field officiating is clearly being influenced by higher agendas, such as marketing and TV revenue.

     

    I understand that the NFL is a big business. It is still a “sport” and should be determined by the players on the field and not by the money-changers.

    More tinfoil needed in Aisle 6.  More tinfoil ASAP.

    There are justifiable criticisms, but this one ended this year.   Your post is just flat out wrong. 

     

    The Bills have a Top 5 OL and Top 5 DL.  

     

    The question is can they keep the DL going given our cap situation, pending FA's and Beane having a weakness so far at drafting early impact EDGE rushers.

     

    Do you have stats to back this up?

  7. Beane has had multiple years to fix the trenches and they are still mediocre on their best days. The list of FA signings and draft picks on the OL and DL that were misses is embarrassing.  The only disclaimer…how much say does McDummy have in terms of FA and the draft.
