Yeah, we had the #1 defense under Frazier and collapsed #4 defense under McDermott and collapsed.

I absolutely agree with you, unfortunately. Because they're guys from the system and have learned from the same guy for years and there has been no sign under McDermott that change is accepted.

I do believe this is one of McDermott's faults... to an extent. It's great for continuity, etc .. I get that but there has to be new faces, new ideas, new concepts, new coaches that are going to challenge and move the needle for us. It's been said on here 10000x about the definition of insanity.... and this is proving to be true. Keeping all of the same people in the building and on staff is not a recipe to 'get over the hump" hell, I dont think our special teams coordinator lost his job and they were atrocious this year.

1/10 take. Those guys were in their 20's at that time. Most of them are now head coaches and/or OC/DC's. So is your stance that position coaches aren't important and we can do without them? Just need OC, DC, STC? Or do you just not understand how the coaching hierarchy works on a day to day basis? I can help out if need be.

I don't think you truly understand the in's and out's of coaching if this is the case: McDermott brings the coaches in: tells each position coach what he expects and their leverage, alignment, etc. on given plays/ concepts. It's then on them to go implement and teach it. Sure McDermott installs game plans and does film, etc but a LOT is on the position coaches. This might be one of the worst takes i've ever seen. This isn't high school football in WNY with 3 coaches on staff.

That doesnt change the fact he isn't a great coach when the going gets tough. He simply does, has, and always will fold in critical situations.

@NewEra Should he just get over it? Or can you finally answer "What makes you think McDermott can get us to the Superbowl?"

He doesn't have Josh Allen.. He has a running QB that can't throw outside the numbers and is VERY limited throwing the ball... he also isn't a DC that has his Defenses fold in critical situations... These two are not linear.

Hahahaha. where is there a tantrum? I’ve asked you 2 questions. You can’t answer them, so you deflect, name call and have excuses. literally picture perfect from someone who doesn’t even believe what their saying and knows they're wrong. I'm sure you are REALLY fun at parties and a great conversationalist, bubba!

I've asked you several questions and you haven't answered. So "Get over it" and telling someone on a football forum discussing their head coach is "crying and whining" isn't juvenile? interesting take bubbaccino .. let's try again: -What makes you think we can win a SB with McDermott? -What big games has he won? (No play off games against Skylar, Mason Rudolph, Mac Jones, don't count) Jesus, I hope so.

So we should just accept that our head coach can't win big games? You're ok with NEVER winning a super bowl with Josh Allen at QB? Or is that whining and crying too? You're cool with participation trophies? LMFAO! Our offense needs to stop scoring... WTF? Do you hear yourself....? You're also making excuses.. Josh needs to stop scoring so fast because our Head Coaches defense cant stop the offense LOL

Got it, so discussing on a FOOTBALL forum.. about OUR TEAMS head coach... and his short comings using actual subjective instances is whining and crying? So we should all be happy that our head coach who is our defensive coordinator can't win a big game?

What makes McDermott a good coach? His defenses have CRUMBLED when it matters most, why is this hard to understand ? Has Andy Reid's offense routinely failed in big stages? Has Sean McVay's? No, McDermott's defense does as a routine Loser's mentality. "Get over it" because we go to the playoffs is settling. We will not and have not and never will win a big game / SB with McDermott as our HC We may never see another player like Josh Allen in a Bills uniform, our coach can't get us over the hump and you're response is "get over it" hahahahaha.

McDermott is 1-5 in Play off games against QBs that dont have a back up QB. What big game has McDermott won?

No, the defense has failed when it mattered most. No the defense wasn't short. It lost Milano.. every team deals with injuries. we brought in Rasul Douglas who was better than Tre. Yeah? How far did that get us in the post season against good teams? He cant win big games. Using this same logic. Tua is the QB of the future of Miami, yeah? 1st in yards and points?

11 men on the field and not 12. Which comes from preparation from the ... *gasp* head coach.

Good coach > bad coach

15 and 19 in his career. What's your point? Josh is an issue? Again, regardless of his turnovers, we were tied and/or leading in 4/6 games we lost this year last time he stepped on the field... what's your angle here bubbaccino? Which makes him..... not a good head coach Which makes him.... not a good head coach. It doesnt matter if you beat subpar teams. You don't win a SB beating subpar teams.

Yeah, his defense is good enough to keep you in the game but HIS play calling and strategy late games allows teams to just do as they please

That was fu***ng atrocious.

Are you referring to KC? I don't think they were being too aggressive? It was a 6 minute drive man lol

The Bills lost 6 times in the regular season. In 4 of those losses, the last time Josh Allen saw the field, the Bills were either winning or tied. Further proof that McDermott's defense and his soft conservative coaching style in crunch situations will continue to hinder this team. EDIT: Wanted to add, The Milwaukee Bucks fired their coach after starting the season 30-13. Winning organizations recognize when change needs to be made. The Chiefs got rid of Alex Smith after a 13-3 (maybe 11-5) season. Pegula needs to recognize that McDermott is good enough to get us a division win and to the divisional round (if we're playing back up QBs) and that's about it.

Fair point. I don't think we can win with McDermott but I also agree that firing him wouldn't NECESSARILY mean the new coach would be an upgrade

I understand what you're saying but do you really want to be a Rodgers and McCarthy situation? 1 SB in 13 years with Aaron Rodgers is REPULSIVE. I was saying that using the fact that Andy Reid took a while to get there so it's "OK" that we do is absolutely a loser mentality and should not be acceptable.

Explain.. did we find McDermotts burner account? so 9.5 yards per play is acceptable? 9 plays of 20+ yards is acceptable? What’s your angle here? Or are you just so in love with the team you don’t see faults and / or change where it needs to happen. you GENUINELY believe we can win a SB with McDermott?
