  1. Thursday Dunne releases his magnum opus, rightly or wrongly, highlighting McD's lack of accountability for his mistakes.

     

    Last night both a well-respected coach and QB, who will both be in the hall of fame one day, deflect all accountability for their wide receiver's blatant mistake onto the referees. Never have I ever seen two people so well-respected in NFL circles whining about a correctly called play. 

     

    Interesting.

     

    Will there be a 20,000 word long form piece on this?

    Nope he did not. Here's the citation. Definitely paraphrases most of the substance . He used some exact quotes that I highly doubt are exact quotes.

    That citation is missing additional paragraphs from Dunne’s article on the topic.

    Dunne does a huge disservice by throwing this out there without the exact context and exact words. I've heard 20 reporters paraphrase what was said today and each one has phrased it differently. 

     

    Dunne included it in the article with context and exact words.

     

    Why is your problem with Dunne and not the 20 reporters paraphrasing his reporting incorrectly?

    It's an interesting question.  I listened to Dunne on the Schopp and Bulldog show this afternoon and it sounded very targeted (I won't say biased but that's probably the closest word).

     

    He said all the people quoted had positive comments about Sean but even more positive about Beane and even said that Beane probably put out more fires than most people know about because of Sean.

     

    Made references to Allen being the best thing since sliced bread and Sean was always going to hold him back. (paraphrasing).

     

     

    I honestly do think that the digging and info that came out wasn't true and all happened but at the same time, I also believe that Dunne has an axe to grind with McD since he doesn't give "new media" media credentials.

     

     

     

    My tinfoil hat theory is it wasn't meant to be targeted at McDermott but was meant to target legacy Buffalo media that reported last week Sean is 100% safe. Would explain some of the criticism from his peers. They know it's personal against them.

    I'm also confused about Dorsey. He was a massive target on this board for ruining Allen and the cheering when he was gone was immense, but now he's an offensive genius that was a scapegoat for McDermott? 

     

    It can easily be both. He was not a good coach, but McDermott has not been a good coach, either. The main point the source was making was how McD never takes accountability so he predicted if things unraveled, instead of taking accountability for his own mistakes by recognizing them and growing as a coach, he would axe Dorsey.

     

    It turned out Dorsey probably should have been let go, but at the same time, the fact is McD has had gaffes this season (and in past ones) just as bad as Dorsey. History shows throughout the numerous sources cited in the article how McDermott never takes accountability for his own mistakes. He's not taking any accountability this year, either.

    Tyler Dunne is a goof. He was on Lil Dirtys podcast a few times and was basically a talking puppet spewing crap every time.  The Bills don't even let him in the building with a press pass for real. This guy is 100% a goof. Not a trusted writer by any means. He will definitely have to look over his shoulder at the stadium on gameday now lemme tell ya. He's now in trouble.

     

    lol this reads a hell of a lot like a direct threat.
