I think we are.

I have often wondered the same thing. Successful coaches design a scheme to utilize the talents of the players on the roster. Coaches like Rex dismantle a successful team and bring g in inferior talent just because they fit the scheme they want to run. I how McDermott is not the latter.

I agree with you that we should have kept TT. He got us to the playoffs. Beane did add to the dead money was contributed to the mess. But a significant amount was created before McBeane arrived. Regardless, we will be clear of most of this going into 2019. If the team can be competitive in 2019. I am on board. If there is not a substantial improvement, it may be time to move on to new management. I would hate to see this happen changing management every three years is a formula for failure.

The story line is that the Bills must clear the dead money so we have room to sign free agents in the off season. It was expected that we would suffer through one difficult year. The brain trust did not want to get involved with any new long term contract this year. That is why we suck.

We all knew this was going to be a rebuilding year, and it is. I do not understand the lynch mob mentality with the current state of the Bills. Yes they suck. But this is what we expected. Let 's power through this year and save our pitch forks and torches for next year if they do not show significant improvement.

I have higher expectations next year. I would give McDermott and Beane through the 2020 season before looking for a change. We have gone through so many coaches. I want to give this management team time to get it right.

Yes. Allen will be better off playing that sitting and watching. Let's hope he is back in a couple of weeks. He still looks like the best qb on our roster.

I agree. It is funny how before the season began, there was so much calm and logical talk about this being a rebuilding year and that we would see an improved team next year. The comments were if we win 4 or 5 games and Allen showed improvement, that would be a successful season. Now so many are a surprises at how bad we are. They are ready to dump Allen and draft a new franchise qb with in 2019. I guess that is why we are called fans (fanatic)

The entire team had ducked today. Why pick on one player? At least he has an excuse. This is his 7th career game.

2 more td's and we are right back in this game.

Who needs Peterman. Anderson can throw picks on his own.

Exactly. He looked like he was going through the motions running his route.

He had won two games!!?!?!?!?!

Outside of those five facets, we have them right where we want them.

Pathetic

Usually when you have a new qb who is called to start with little time to prepare, the rest of the team steps up. The Bills just told up. This team lacks any heart.

Why can't we cover receivers at all today?

He has been all season. The entire team is having a bad game today.

Time for McDermott to take over the defense play calling now.

We need a huge defensive stop right now.

We are being dominated in all phases of the game. Anderson is looking pretty good though.

We need to start getting pressure on luck. Crappie, they just scored.

It certainly looks like McDermott really likes something in Peterman. Let's hope he gets over that soon.

Not a Peterman fan in any way, but he has to stay on the roster until Allen is available. Otherwise, who would be the back upA

Nice post. The Bills are a team in transition. Before the year started, there were many more needs on offense than defense. It is logical for the defense to be ahead of the offense. The bills will get to where we want them to be. It will take a year or two.
