    Dude...again.  It has nothing to do with the weather Sunday and everything to do with what is about to happen in the next 60 hours prior to that.

    Reading comprehension dude.

     

    I was replying to yet another post that was concerned about playing Cleveland in heavy snow, when the forecast is fine for Sunday.

     

    Sheese. Stop stalking me please.

    Plows are not going to work well in these conditions.  Last Snowvember they had to call in heavy construction equipment because the plows were getting stuck and/or breaking.

    Wasn't that over 7' of snow.

     

    This one is looking like 3' to 4' over about 36 hours. Praying for you guys that they can stay on top of it. Down here in Jamestown they're saying only about 6" from this.

    This has kind of been my thought on McDermott for a while now

     

    -He is an excellent coach Monday- Saturday. The team is always ready. We almost never get blown out. We are double digit favorites constantly. We went from a complete joke to literal Super bowl contender with him. The minute he got here we started winning. I’ll be forever in debt to him for turning this around and after more time goes on, we will only appreciate him more. I’m proud of this team for the first time in forever and McDermott is the main reason. The guy is going nowhere and he earned that.

     

    -On game day he is horrible. The in actives are infuriating. He overvalues special teams to a disgraceful degree and we aren’t even good at it. The league has long since phased STs out and we are the last team to realize it. We never use RBs the correct way. It started with high leverage carries for a completely done Frank Gore, evolved to Moss and just has been horrible everywhere in between. We have no clue how to adjust, we are nowhere near aggressive enough on defense. No clue when to challenge and clock management is embarrassing. We also refuse to establish the run and play with transparent unbalance. Losing close games stops being luck after a while. Fraizers defense is way to soft for the talent we have and the offense is completely careless with the ball.
     

    I know it falls on McDermott but I don’t think it’s all his fault. I feel like he’s too trusting at times and needs to get more hands on. I want McDermott to completely take over the defense. Call the plays, adjust personnel, get the headset on…all of it. I’m happy that everyone from the outside loves Fraizer. Hopefully they love him enough to get him a HC job somewhere because I can’t stand him. We play defense like complete pussies and every decent QB has all day to stand there and find guys on 3rd down. It’s been like that every single season. We have been a good defense under Fraizer but it’s absolutely because of the players. We have the most talent in the NFL on defense IMO. We should be lights out and putting fear into offenses. We just are on skates seemingly on purpose and that’s Fraizer. That’s what his defenses were in Minnesota and that’s why he was fired. On offense, I know McDermott values the run and balance more then Dabol or Dorsey. Get in the room and make it change. You have another OC in the building. It’s as simple as run the ***** ball or this other guy will. Get your hands on this entire team because these windows are small. Now is the time to swing for it all and if we go down, it needs to be with McDermotts fastball. Tighten up and step on some toes if you have to. The ends will justify the means if we get where we have to go.

    Great post! My fear is McD is one of those coaches who can come in and turn around a losing franchise to a point. But there are flaws that will keep you from winning the big one. His biggest attribute is supposed to be attention to detail and being prepared for every situation. I'm not seeing it. We were horrible during this part of the season last year too, and got it back on track to make a run. Hope they can do it again this year. And then avoid another debacle.

    Make fun of me, say I'm a liar, say whatever you want.

    I'm done.

     

    I'm 34 years old, married with a 1 month old. I live out of state. 

    I have been a Bills fan all of my life, I'm not going to stop being a fan, I can't. I've been cursed. For many years, I dreamed when I finally had a kid that as they grew up, I would have someone who would love the Bills as much as I do, something we could share. My wife doesn't care about sports (it sucks). That dream is over, I'm not cursing my daughter to a lifetime of misery. 

     

    Of course, I will keep up with the Bills, but I've got to change the way they have an impact in my life. Beyond my family and job, the Bills have come next. Watching every game, having whatever app needed to watch them out of state, clothing, $, etc. 

     

    I'm done. I cant keep doing this. The way I feel after a loss has to stop (especially the epic meltdown losses we are all to familiar with); I'm miserable, I'm mad, I'm angry, it consumes me. I'm to emotionally invested. Beyond my job and family, the Bills have been everything and anyone who knows me knows its my identity. 

     

    Something has to give. 

     

    So, I thought about it after the KC game last season. Now after this, its time. I'm no longer watching the Bills live. 4 hours every "Sunday" for 17 weeks and whatever playoffs and preseason stuff. That's over 70+ hours each season. That's roughly 3 days of my life each year devoted to the Bills.

     

    What has it given back to me, how am I a better person for doing this. What good, what accomplishments, what have I earned from this. 

    NOTHING

    All I do is become a emotional wreck and a miserable, grumpy jerk when they lose. (I can remember crying as a little kid, like 6/7 years old). The crying as a little kid, now is mostly just meant with anger. Any of my friends and family know. To the point of, my best friends wife, texted my wife and wanted to see how angry I was after the KC loss. It's embarrassing. I have become a side show spectacle, to point where people are curious how "epic" my meltdown was. (I would like to say, I actually took it like a champ, and kept it all in eternally and showed nothing emotionally). No anger, just disappointment in myself and the Bills. 

     

    From here on, perhaps I go back to it at some point. I dont know. I'm just done. I am disappointed in myself more for caring so much for 30 years. 

     

    From this point on, I'm not watching another Bills game live. I need to do better in my life, maybe this is a small step in the right direction. I know I will watch replays if they win (just like I might watch Netflix or Disney +), but I'm gaining my life back. I'm done.

     

     

    So, see ya next week then? ;)

    Right, but you also have to caculate the chance he actually has to play, if he is designated the "backup".

     

    You're trying to connect intent to play Allen with a decision to not dress Barkley, but there is a disconnect there.

     

    It's a 2-step process. One, should we dress Allen and have him stand on the sideline? Two: would he ever actually have to play in the game?  It could be that if Keenum starts but gets injured immediately, the Bills go to another backup plan, even though Allen is standing there in a uniform.  I.E, he does NOT play.

     

    Why?  B/c McD and his staff think this will have out-smarted the opponent and made them prepare for Allen when they didn't need to.

     

    They also may think playing a "disaster 3rd QB" is about the same as playing Barkley anyway.

     

    I.E., either way, we almost certainly lose.
