    Mini rebuild. Why is anyone that surprised?

    I do hope you're right and I shared a similar view until the final 2 minutes of the game on Sunday. Going to the playoffs consistently has been fantastic but you only get so many shots at the prize and you need to take advantage when the opportunity presents itself. Because its not going to last forever.

     

    And some of those Bills coaches you mentioned had pretty good rosters with the exception of one critical position. They didn't have the one thing McDermott has and that's a legitimate top 5 in the league franchise QB named Josh Allen. Most of those coaches in the league that fans gripe about also do not have a Josh Allen type. If they did, they would have winning records and would be challenging for division titles and playoff berths on a consistent basis.

     

    If you take away Allen and insert a QB from those coaching stints of those former Bills HC's, I'd argue their records and Sean's would be more or less the same. And we don't have a playoff run going and he's probably fired a couple seasons ago. Figure Sean is halfway thru Allen's career and so far not much to show for it. How many more seasons and years of their life do fans want to waste on the Sean McDermott project praying for a result that probably will never come? I have absolutely zero confidence at this point given what we've seen that he's going to lead this team to a Super Bowl victory.

    I feel your pain but not sure there is a better way to handle that.  If we go three runs won't as many people complain we didn't try to win the game with only a field goal needed.  I've seen it too many times people calling McDermott too conservative.  I do think if they did not have three timeouts though you would have seen all runs.

    #2. They didn't change the entire coaching staff. They failed to replace the single most important person. The one responsible for a series of in-game gaffes and mistakes that have cost this team in critical situations against the better teams in the league where there is no margin of error for tolerating such blunders. This team looked totally unprepared for the Ravens game and played like it. Against the Texans the defense did their best but the offense looked like garbage most of the game. And when listening to post game excuses I keep hearing about communication and execution problems. 

     

    Is there anyone here confident that Sean will have this team prepared for what we all know the Jets will do on offense and defense and ready to play their best on Monday night? Playing their best win or lose. That's really the expectation and I think that what most fans are looking for out of their team. I'm not expecting miracles such as the WR group is going to light it up or all the new players on defense playing because of injuries and departures are going to make the Pro Bowl. And there's nothing wrong with losing to a superior foe but when you constantly shoot yourself in the foot and blow a game in the most inconceivable way and look like a fool while doing it, its a different story. At this point either you know what you're doing or you don't And stop making stupid coaching mistakes or find another job someplace else. The longer they delay reaching the inevitable conclusion that we need to make a change at HQ, the longer they will fail to get a sniff at the Super Bowl.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Yes he absolutely will.  I'm guessing you forgot the years of Jauron, Rex Ryan, Gailey, Williams, Mularkey, and Marrone.  Look at the league and pick three (if you can find them) coaches you would rather have than McDermott and then look at the forums on the team's sites and see if they don't have similar views.  Be happy that we have a coach that consistently takes us to the playoffs and gives us a chance every year.

    These 4 players are in the top 10 most expensive players against the cap. Don’t tell me about diggs or miller. You just reinforce my point. Of the four players above two ride the pine, one looks like a horrible signing and bass has looked shaky the past two seasons. In what world is this good cap management. Remove these four players and you could afford d. Adams.  Oh wait that’s another blunder cause you thought u could replace diggs with Collin’s and Coleman. For the love of god please don’t make me list the garbage dt, and de that never panned out over the last 6 years. 

    So your solution is to add one high priced player to replace 4 positions we need to address.  Elam is a rookie contract and you are not getting that money back.  Bass is being paid less than a million a year, how are you saving money on a kicker or do you advise we go without a kicker?  Knox is the only gripe you have, he was overpaid but still is a solid TE.  My point with Diggs and Miller is everyone would have complained if we didn't extend Diggs and everyone was excited about Miller when we signed him.  Can't blame Beane if no one disagreed with the move to begin with.

    Jay Glazer on X: "Just talked to Robert Saleh who said was blindsided by Woody Johnson walking to his office and letting him go. Certainly disappointed he wasn’t going to be given the opportunity to get things going with what he said is a very good roster" / X

    They have pieces but a very flawed roster

    McDermott needs a end of game coordinator

    I maintain the decision at the end of the Texans game was not the wrong decision but obviously it didn't work out.  Running would have still given the Texans the ball back in fact unless a first down a running play would take less time off the clock.  No matter what they had to make a first down and throwing would have been more likely.  I'm actually surprised not to see a Josh run once.

    Well who manages the cap? Some of you totally forgot how we are in this situation. 

    We are in this situation paying our QB, our departed Pro Bowl WR, and our nonexistent (yet everyone was excited to get) pass rusher.  The cap doesn't not lend to having a decent QB and still having money.  Texans will face this in a year and the Ravens will too.

    We ALL knew what this season was likely going to be.  

     

    We gutted a bunch of defensive players.  We traded stallworths Diggs and Davis.  We didn't trade up for a WR or trade for a #1.

     

    You cannot think that we will have a stacked roster year in, year out.  There HAS to be some rebuilding..  and this is it.  There is something called "the cap".

     

    We are retooling.  Hoarding draft pics etc.

     

    I am not surprised the talent level has dropped off.  Does it suck, sure.  But we are regrouping to enter into Allen's second window imo.

     

    Everyone needs to calm down.  

    Not sure what people thought Davis was but Shakir is much better.  Emotions play too much on this board.  Yes we are 3-2 but not by any stretch out of the playoffs.  Young players will get better further in the season and having players back will help on defense.  Not sure what to make of the offense but as long as we win our last game of the year being the super bowl I'm fine

    The Bills are fine

    The problem is that the division is terrible enough for us to make the playoffs so we can get snuffed out again. Which means mcclappy and crew will get another chance to ***** it up in the clutch next year too. 

    You remember when we couldn't win the division for what was it 20 years?  The bar has been raised by us.
