It was a character assassination on McD. The players do care whats written about a coach and man to whom for many has become a father figure IMO. McD sure cared...

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Much appreciated. By gradually allowing more and more contact to take place between DB and WR which does appear to be the case. More and more actual penalties are occurring, some called, some not because of it IMO. Give an inch and players will take a mile. Perhaps becoming more controversial with clear cut images of what the league calls a penalty is needed. When you start red flagging missed or wrong calls the league itself has to make a final determination for everyone to see. Uniformity on penalty calls across the league would become more easily established in my humble opinion. Thanks again for the insightful post.

Needs to be changed to a 5 yard penalty IMO. Fair enough, In all fairness the integrity of the outcome could greatly benefit from shall we say better officiating. Adding missed or wrong calls to the red flag challenge is an easy way to correct mistakes real time.

Adding missed or wrong calls to the red flag challenge brings about a more uniform way of officiating throughout the league. Officials want to cast a blind eye on penalties they get challenged. Bad officiating becomes easy to identify and removed If deemed necessary. It doesn't slow down the game because the rules to its usage remains the same. Players, coaches, fans. We all deserve fair officiating.

Red flag challenge needs to include a missed penalty by the officials or to review a possible wrong penalty call by the officials. Its a simple fix IMO.

The Bills went over 2 decades without getting into the playoffs before the McBeane regime. Revolving door at the QB position. We now have one of the best QB's in the league. Elite. Making the playoffs has become the norm. McD deserves credit for all of it. Mike Tomlin of the Steelers just fired his OC under similar circumstances. Let the season play out people. A win against the high flying Eagles on Sunday and its on like a MOFO.

Offense, Defense, Special teams Joe Brady is off to a very good start with Josh Allen. Wow, what a sight for sore eyes...

Same here, Good to see our Yodeling Yolo posting again. We missed you man!

Great post Mango You guys have seen me float the idea of Ryan Fitzpatrick as Buffalo's next OC more than once. From a Bills/ players perspective If Fitz tells them something players will respond well and listen. Josh would respond well under Fitzpatrick. The Chan Gailey playbook with Fitz calling plays and poof, like magic, the Billls O and Josh Allen are riding high in the saddle once again!

You hit the nail on the head. Josh Allen plays with a gunslinger mentality. One of the strongest arms the NFL has ever seen. Checking the ball down and taking what the D gives you doesn't come natural to him. Never has, and without the management part of the equation Allen will continue to have a high TD to INT ratio. So lets hope Joe Brady has the balls to get in Allens face and chew him out like Daboll or its all for not IMO. Myself personally Shaw, Josh Allen has all the tools, (and then some) the intelligence, and sees the field as good as the GOAT/ Tom Brady. Its up to Joe Brady now to make it work. Allen takes responsibility for the firing of Ken Dorsey https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/allen-blames-himself-for-dorsey-firing-but-insists-bills-aren-t-a-broken-team/ar-AA1k2CPH?ocid=xboxntp&cvid=c7db3f0fa75342b89e0cbff46b64e222&ei=14

Call our new O the Kingcaid Gun I also love it.

Yes, I get tired of reading about it, lol I suppose the get over it wasn't necessary. Sorry about that LA It felt good though Dan

Why so adamant a man like Sean McDermott wouldn't/couldn't learn from his mistakes? Never ending? You could say HC's make mistakes in every game they lose. So I suppose it is never ending. Everyone wants to point to the 13 seconds of madness only Mahomes could make, Get over it.

Terry Pegula is a better business man though, and he doesn't have Russ Brandon whispering sweet nothings in his ear ; )

Brian Daboll for OC again

I agree, its doubtful that Mcbeane makes the same mistake twice. If Joe Brady doesn't start showing them something and quick, the search is on IMO. It may already be on for all we know. Who as an Offensive minded coach wouldn't want to work with Josh Allen.

and much needed ...

Fitzy for OC you mean. Fitz has the Gailey playbook memorized already. Great leadership abilities. Fearless when he played. Bills players including Josh would respond very well under him. I've been preaching this idea until I'm Buffalo blue in the face. The Perfect Fit/z. Amen I don't want to hear about all the $$$ Fitzy makes with his cushy job on Thursday night football. Buffalo needs you!!! The bearded one needs a call from Pegula...

What McD did with a D missing 5 starters vs Denver kept the Bills in the game after the O coughed the ball up 4 times. Doing double duty as HC/DC. Took the Bills into the playoffs after a 2 decade drought with Tyrod Taylor. McD just sent Buffalo's biggest problem packing. What more do you want from this guy?

Logic has no place here Thanks for this post you Old Coot

Big fan of Daboll as Bills OC. He did a great job with the development of Josh Allen. Hated losing him. Getting Kincaid in the 1st round is a good step in the right direction IMO. I also think we have just scratched the surface with James Cook.

Managing Allen doesn't mean you have to eliminate what makes him great. There's a time and place for everything. Throwing into double, even triple coverage is a mistake waiting to happen. Daboll ran Allen like a RB exploiting Allens skill set. Its not something that is going to give one of the best arms the NFL has ever seen, longevity. You get that right?

Fair enough, I suppose that may also be the case. Daboll and Allen worked very well together. I hate to wish bad things on HC Daboll, but I hope he gets fired and comes back to his boy Josh, lol

While I don't fault Ken Dorsey for Allens poor decisions on the football field. What you say is true because Dorsey doesn't have the balls to chew Allen out. Well put Zag20...
