Unfortunately, Andy Dalton propelling Buffalo into the playoffs last year is going to buy a lot of rope for McBeane with the fans.
Rose colored glasses off, these guys aren't it. They believe Nate Peterman is an NFL level QB, ffs!
He's had success with AJ Feely, Kevin Kolb, both Vick and Alex Smith had their best years under him and he developed McNabb. Now, possibly Mahomes. He also was young Favre's OC.
Don't sell him short.
I am grateful for the long overdue playoff birth, but last year was last year. I'm not one to rest on past accomplishments.
Set your sights a little further and much higher.
This offense is putrid!
That's the "glass half full" mentality.
Me? I'm wondering why this coach and GM seem horribly inept at evaluating and acquiring offensive talent, across the board. Take a quick look at Carolina's offense. This is a pattern.
Barrier? No. A baby gate, perhaps.

He sucks against NE, particularly when it counts the most.
Luck was complicit in killing his own career by re-signing with that dreadful organization.
He would have gotten paid anywhere. He CHOSE to stay in Indy.
