    It helped that the Jets' offense couldn't get out of its own way and our D dominated them.  That always makes things easier for an offense.

     

    Keep in mind as well that that was the first appearance of the Brady schemed offense.  As the games continue, more video of our O will become available to opponents.  That shouldn't be discounted.

     

    Very optimistic, but as we all realize, the gauntlet lies ahead.  

     

     

    Well, it's a good 4 game stretch to do it, considering who we have to play. It's safe to say that the same offense we've been putting out there wasn't gonna cut it against Phl, KC, and Dallas. 

     

    Might as well try it on the leagues best and see what happens. We may actually steal a game or two because of the unexpected wrinkles in the playbook and make it in.

    I'm going golfing as well.  It's hard to get a tee time around here and I can watch the full game on NFL+ later tonight. 

     

    But I'm also doing it as a reverse-hex to break our slump.  I missed one game last year to play golf - the loss on Nov. 6 at the Jets that started this last calendar year of inconsistent offensive play and odd decisions from Josh.  I'm playing the very same course today while they are playing the Jets to break whatever curse I beset on the team.

    Thank you for your service. 

     

  3. Good stuff! 

     

    Re: the oline. Doesn't it seem that the bigger the game, the worse the oline does? It isn't always the best dlines that give us problems, but at critical times in the game and in critical games, they come up short time and time again.

    First, I do think McDermott gets another head-coaching job . But I think it is less than certain it’s hard to imagine any team who thinks they have their franchise quarterback in place hiring Sean McDermott. I also think any team with the draft capital to to land a franchise QB would not hire McDermott

     

    It seems like the teams that would be interested would be the teams that are starting guys like Sam Howell or Derek Carr, who don’t really have realistic championship aspirations

     

    Agree on that, for sure. Sean will get a team that is either in need of a rebuild, or one that is already torn down to the studs with a new GM. 

     

    And honestly, he will probably do a pretty good job if it's a scenario like that and he can find another QB.

    None of this even fits what I said. McDermott built a winning franchise. He helped develop a franchise QB. Hurts and Tua were on losing teams and not developed yet.

     

    The QBs you need to look at are Mathew Stafford in Detroit, Philip Rivers in San Diego, and Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay. Rodgers is probably the best example but they never made it to the Super Bowl with LeFluer.


    John Elway won a Super Bowl going from Fox to Kubiak but that was a promotion from within which no one wants.

    These are good points, but the Bills need to take the sentiment out of the decision.

    We're going on 60+ years of being losers and not winning a Super Bowl. I think you need to throw everything we can at it for the next 5 years until the formula is right. 

     

    McD just doesn't seem to have the right stuff going forward. It wouldn't surprise me if his next stint goes similar to this one, and he's still chasing a championship down the road as a DC again.

  6. McD's success should be used a springboard for both parties. 

     

    We have Allen to dangle in front of the best available talent and turn an OC into a head coach. 

     

    McD has the rejuvenated franchise and city of Buffalo to hang his hat on. 

     

    It shouldn't be that hard to shift gears at this point, except that we will need a new HC, DC, and OC all in one offseason. But we have Allen, Diggs, and a strong roster of talent.
