Billsflyer12

I literally have a hard time understanding how some of you don’t understand or see such a simple concept and point. I’m not going to go around and around with those who don’t actually care to read correctly. SMH.

I said in the Mahomes Era. The current QB, Coach and team that is the standard now, currently. Use DOVA, fine. 3 of the past 5 SB winners were 14th or worse in defense. BTW the 2 who weren’t Bucs and Rams were 3 and 8th in Total Offense. Both the wining and losing coaches in past 4 SB were Offensive coaches, that’s 8 for 8. 7 of the last 8 playoff teams this season were offensive coaches. OFFENSE wins Championships now in the Mahomes era, not defense. That’s my point.

A great defense does NOT matter, a great offense DOES in the Mahomes era. Having an offensive minded Head Coach DOES matter, a defensive Head Coach is a LIABILITY in Mahomes era.

Let’s look at the last 4 Super Bowls, the Mahomes era. 1). Both the winners and losers of last 4 Super Bowls were coached by offensive coaches. 2). The defensive ranking of the winner of last 4 Super Bowls have gotten lower and lower each season. None in top 5. The last 2 Super Bowl winners rank 15th and 16th in Total Defense. 3). The last 5 Super Bowl winners have a top 10 Total Offense, 4 of those 5 were top 5 in Total Offense. Your point of a team winner Super Bowl with a terrible defense may be true. A mid table defense is enough if you have an elite offense. The offense in this Mahomes Era is so much more important and this team has neglected it. An offensive minded Head Coach has literally made 100% of Super Bowls in this Mahomes era. Could it happen to this version of Bills, maybe? You wouldn’t bet a whole lot on the small chance it could with the Bills as currently constructed.

English EPL soccer teams fire coaches after a couple of months, but 7 years in Buffalo we need to still be patient.

The fact that it is a moot point is exactly what pisses everyone off. We do the same sh*t every year, with the same people who make the same mistakes. All the while the Chiefs completely overhaul their OL and retool receivers after trading one of the best away. Eagles hire a young, aggressive, offensive coach while drafting and WR in top 10 and trading for an addition top 5 WR. Bengals over haul their OL, draft WR and then draft another one right after. 49ers trade for Christian McCaffery, we trade for Hines and use him 4 offensive plays. So yes, not only do neither of them go anywhere, they all just stay a do the same dumb stuff doubling down on freaking defense every year. They learn nothing, say nothing and we all are to just trust the process. Ok 👍.

He and Beane deserve all of it from football perspective. Not personal.

5 of last 7 Super Bowl winners score 31 or more points, and Beane and McDermott have decided every year to double down on freaking defense with an elite QB on the roster! Just inexcusable negligence toward Allen and this offense.

You have to be kidding me!!! Your post is sarcasm right? They have watched 5 of last 7 Super Bowl winners score 31 or more points, and then decided to double down on freaking defense with an elite QB on the roster!

Having a defensive head coach in a offensive/QB era is a real problem in 2 ways. 1). Continuity on offense. If OC is good he is hired elsewhere, if OC is bad he is eventually fired. Hired or fired is bad for QB and offensive consistency. The QB and a OC Head Coach is the stability in this current young gun QB era that works the best. 7 of final 8 in this year’s playoffs were this setup. 2). HOF QB Steve Young talked about this recently and it was fascinating. Basically he said having a defensive coach as head coach was a problem for the offense because his natural or maybe even unconscious traits are to make decisions that protect their defense. I had never thought of it like this. For me in playoffs you definitely see McDermott defaulting to this thinking, much to the detriment of the offense and team in general. His game management decisions, either punt/go, FG/go or timeouts for example lean heavily toward protecting the defense. His natural instincts in pressure moments are to trust a stop more than trust Josh to get 2 or 6 yds on 4th. Sean is a good coach and likely a better man. It’s just how he fits into this era and with how our team is built.

It makes him a bad fit for this team and this era.

As someone who lived in Texas for a number of years I can attest to this. My property taxes were more in Texas on a 180,000 house are more than now in Colorado on a house 3 times that. No state income tax is a marketing tool, states always get their $$$$.

Then bolted for a lateral job on a team with a HC as OC?

They won’t.

If he saw a lack of opportunity here in Buffalo why would he would move laterally to a team with a HC as OC? This seems as if Sean didn’t want him back or maybe he just wanted same job with an offensive minded coach, in warm weather and with no state tax.

So then you tell me, how do you define successful drafting? Im not really sure what your point is here. You defending or criticizing Beane?

Von signing is a product of poor drafting after he used 4 top 2 round picks on DL with almost nothing to show for it. He also drafted a 3rd round special teams linebacker who doesn’t fit the defensive scheme, and all the while ignoring OL and WR in top 3 rounds! The BEST one can say about his drafts are that they are maybe average.

Do you consider this season a successful one? What should the standard be for a successful season for this team?

Is this defense Fraziers’ or McDermotts’? Are the drafts Beanes’ or McDermotts’? Is he good at Player development? What on the field is he good at?

Elway was an awful GM, but we wasn’t involved in this. The current GM is just as awful though. He traded 2 1st, 2 2nds, 3 players for Russ and then gave him the worst contract in NFL history 2 years before he was even due for an extention. Just brutal

Chiefs 20 of last 22 picks have contributed.

Except McDermmit won’t play them their rookie year, so minimum 2 years till they could help even if he killed it this draft.

4 and 6, down 7 on the road, in opponents territory and a coach goes for it throwing to their best WR even though he is double teamed? What? No way. And they convert and score? What? Crazy. Yes coaching is biggest problem.
