One of the most ridiculous, nonsensical posts I’ve ever read in here. Good job, you!In what way? I'm open to hearing how what any of what I said is wrong or untrue.

I don't care for Taylor Swift, never have. Now I feel you Dems are saying I have to care for her? I really don't get it.
When did I say that? I literally made a post about how Celebrity endorsements don't impact elections at all and that nobody needs to care about Taylor Swift. The post I made that you're replying to was in response to someone who said people who don't have kids should have no say in the future of the country.

my point was he gets hired elsewhere in 12 months as a HC if he doesn’t pull a Dorsey and mess up an easy opportunity hereThat's a fair point. I think that could happen with the demand of young OC's with playcalling experience even if we don't win big here.

We have proven they we are a top 8 team in the NFL.
Yeah I don't understand the flex. I don't think finishing Top 8 is something other teams who have elite QB's on their team see as a success story.

As someone who found a lot of what was in the Dunne piece to be illuminating and probably truthful...
Two things that have happened since have been kind of damning to that report:
The first was the Wink Martindale/Brian Daboll fallout. Whereas it looked like the rather public breakup of McDermott and Daboll was more on McDermott, seeing Daboll be unable to make it work with a second consecutive defensive mind makes one wonder.
The second was the fact that, as the OP mentioned, two coveted young coordinators chose to stick around in Buffalo rather than go elsewhere, even though both garnered significant interest. Babich, in particular, was surprising, choosing to stick around under a defensive-minded head coach who may still continue to call plays rather than potentially spread his wings under an offensive minded guy.
Lastly, the way the team rallied around McDermott after the piece came out also sort of poked a bit of a hole in the "no one likes playing for this control freak" narrative.
The more that time has gone on and the more that's happened, the less accurate Dunne's piece has looked.
With all of that said, the Bills still lost in heartbreaking fashion in the Divisional round to the Kansas City Chiefs, and the major thesis of Dunne's piece was that McDermott tenses up in big moments and that the Bills need to move on from him to ever reach the Super Bowl, so.....he hasn't entirely been proven wrong thus far.Right. I believe two things can be true at the same time, and I don't know how anyone could say McD doesn't tense up in big moments. He's had a cavalcade of postseason and big game blunders here.

Who’s upset? Whoever chooses to become an evolutionary dead end is welcome to do so. But their opinions should not be taken at all seriously. If you have no stake in the future of the country you should have no say in the future of the country.I don't think it's possible to be more narrow-minded than this.
First off, someone in their 30's could have 50-70 more years left on this planet. They could also have nephews, nieces, have students they've taught, children of friends, or even just flat out care about the next generation of people. What about people that are "evolutionary dead-end"'s that can't have children? What about people whose children have passed away or have children that don't want children? All of these people should be left without an opinion or say? And parents that are deadbeats or even just bad at what they do, using your logic, should?
I'm in the middle politically because I don't like either party but it's nonsense like this that reminds of me why I could never be a Conservative.

Or, particularly in the case of Brady, he realized a year with Josh Allen ends in a head coaching job in a year if successful… while Atlanta maybe not so much
Unfortunately I think the standards with the owner and half the fanbase are so low, that I’m not even sure another massive postseason disappointment gets McD Cannes.
Terry and a lot of fans feel that simply a Divisional Round exit with an elite QB is a huge accomplishment. It’s happened 3 years in a row and they want more of it.
I think if it was somewhere else, this could be a good analysis of the situation by Brady. Here, I’m not so sure. I guess if the offense is solid he probably feels he could still get hired away.

I guess we're just on opposite sides of this situation because clearly we see the evidence showing different things. I think the massive changes from the 2020/2021 seasons to the 2022/2023 seasons were more than just a different play caller. It's a schematic change away from what Josh and the offensive personnel do best.
Sure production is there, but you have Josh F'in Allen lol bro is SUPERMAN, you better produce lol. He covers TONS of ills with his legs, his arm, being impossible to sack etc... when people throw out how we win and he puts up video game numbers as an endorsement of coaching, I'll throw back that Allen is an alien the likes of which we've never seen.... He was on the Ascent with Daboll, imagine how good he'd be if they crafted the offense better to him.
Short outs, screens, and short routes were a staple of this offense... That's a massive change from Daboll. McDermott said in 2022 he wanted the offense to take fewer risks... Well the OC works for him, and the seasons entire script was short low risk passing.
Why does Josh always look better in the 4th quarter when the chips are down and he needs a play? Because they let Josh be Josh ... He runs, he throws all over the field to more vertical routes, he superman's some hoes! He goes full on Josh. But for 3 quarters leading up to that, game in and game out for 2 years, it looks so difficult.
Why has Diggs' average depth of target in dropped to below 10 yards in 10 of his past 19 games and it's over 2 yards shorter than his career avg in Buffalo? Dumb ass bubble screens and stuff HE'S NOT DESIGNED TO DO. Dude is one of the best route runners creating separation down field and we delegated him to gadget guy. Against KC he only had 2 targets over 7 yards.... One was the deep ball and one was 15 yards down field, the other 6 were: -7, -1, 1, 4, 5, 5.... Bro, come on... Tell me this isn't conservative hold the ball use short passes like runs, and control the clock football. That's NOT Josh Allen, it's playing conservative and frankly scared.
It's how the Bills play now since Daboll left. Dorsey did it, Brady did it ... It's a schematic plan and it comes from the HC and how HE wants the game to go. Few challenges down field, just enough to keep them honest, short high percentage passes hoping for YAC.
It's what you do when you have Ryan Fitzpatrick at QB and no WRs... Not Josh Allen, Diggs, Cook, Kincaid....
But we can agree to disagree here man. I just see a dramatic shift in offensive philosophy with how they constructed game plans, route trees, and eliminated the air raid scheme they would employ at will under Daboll. Everything looked difficult for the offense, because they're not playing to their strengths... So what are they playing to?
JMO I guess, but McDermott's desire to play mistake free football with field position, and let his D dominate. Which 20 years ago with Kyle Orton sure.... But it's 2023 and you have QB1 JA17.... This scheme is a joke, not because these coaches don't know what they're doing, it because it's what the HC wants.
Yes, yes, and more yes.
It's not even on the offensive side that people excuse McD for, they did it for years with Frasier. Frasier was carrying out McD's strategy and philosophy. If McD didn't like it at any point during all of those years, he could have fired him.
There has been one constant problem in our postseason disappointments, and anyone being objective can see it.

Can't say I'm surprised by the hire. McBeane are loyal guys and like to promote from within.
Brady had Josh running the ball a lot more and the offense seemed like they were having more fun out there. Total yards and points are pretty comparable between the Brady games and Dorsey games.
The Brady-offense was mediocre to bad in the wins against Chiefs, Chargers, Patriots, and Dolphins. I wonder how Brady would be viewed on here had Toney not lined up offside. Or if the DEF didn't force 4 turnovers vs the Pats. Or if the Dolphins had the punt return for a TD instead of us.
Ironically enough the defense saw a bigger improvement after we fired Dorsey than the offense did.
Yeah, I definitely think Brady was better than Dorsey...but he wasn't great. He might be the best guy to get a season to install his offense...but a real search and welcoming of different ideas would have been the right way to go.

Awesome. So nobody really cares what TayTay says.
Celebrity endorsements historically don't make a difference. Even from Presidents that are popular within their own parties. Obama and Trump both didn't have a good success rate with their endorsements for lower offices even though they were wildly popular within their parties. For celebrities that aren't even in politics, the impact is even lower.
Which is why it's so silly that places like Fox News and these influencer clowns have their panties in a twist about Taylor Swift.

Yeah, that's the appeal. A woman rapidly approaching middle age with no responsibilities who acts like a teenager with zero consequences. She's living the modern woman's dream.
Why does this upset Conservatives though? I'm in my early 30's, single, no kids, and love life. I know people in my position who are also very happy...some who are not happy and really want a family but it just hasn't happened yet. I know people who are married and miserable....and married and very happy.
I don't push my way of living onto other people just because right now I wouldn't have it any other way. I don't think there's a right or wrong way, it's what works for you. There are people thriving and people who are miserable under both circumstances.
There's this weird push from Conservatives, it's all over their media, with their influencers pushing people to get married and have kids, even if it's not what they really want. This is supposedly from the party of freedom and non authoritarian.

As many know I’m far from a McD fan but I think this has to be agood move. McD biggest flaw is REALLY poor in-game management of clock, time outs and general strategy. I’ve got to think taking DC play calling off of his to do list can only help him there. That’s of course assuming that McD seeks help to study the lacking skill set I listed above. Let’s hope and pray!
But he was really bad at those things for the other 6 years he was a HC and not the DC
If McD is giving up defensive playcalling, this is a good thing. He's a major liability, anything that help ease the burden of his impact helps. We'll still have to win in spite of his in-game management, but at least it's one less hurdle.

This guy really wants the Bills job. It should've happened this year. Hopefully it'll happen next.

In 10 career playoff games, Josh Allen has:
Passer rating of 100.0
64.6 completion percentage
2,723 yards passing, 21 touchdowns and 4 interceptions
563 rushing yards and 5 TD's
That sounds like the stat line of a multiple Super Bowl Champion..............screw you, Kansas City!!!
McD's the problem, not KC

The 2024 Champion has been crowned.
I agree with the stance on Hillary.
But what's funny is YOU as a person do this EXACT SAME thing, and there are receipts on this forum to prove it. You literally admitted to me that the same thing you call out the media and politicians for doing, is the same thing you defended Tucker Carlson for doing with Trump with the propaganda-cupcake interviews with him. The same thing you accuse others of doing is exactly what you do. You're fine with it because he's on your side and you feel that Trump has been unfairly railroaded.
You're creating a narrative in which it's OK for you to be a fraud because you feel that's what others on the other side are doing. This is so you can justify your own personal actions and why you kneel down and lick for Tucker when he does the same exact thing that you complain about others doing.
This makes you absolutely, 100% no different than the people you complain about. There is not one person on the planet that I would sell out on my beliefs for. Anyone here that I've ever referenced, if someone truthfully calls out them out on their bull####, I'm on board. I'm not going to say it's OK for them but not for the people or side I don't like.
What you do is just straight up partisan hackery, which is what so much of this actually boils down to. You bow down to Conservatism, moreso Online Conservatism because I don't think you really know or understand what the real thing is. And there's a lot of that here on both sides. But you seem to more than most put yourself on a high horse when you as a person are much, much more of the problem with our country than what's good.

Been told over and over on this forum that the offense has been at fault for playoff losses, including last week. Guess those people probably won't respond in this thread.
There's a lot of McD propaganda here unfortunately. There's no way anyone can logically make an argument that he hasn't been our biggest liability and problem in the playoffs.

One AFC championship appearance in that span is unacceptable.
And I honestly don't think McDermott is anywhere close to being on the hot seat.
Yup.
If I had to say right now...and this feels unfathomable after that 2020-21 season...I don't think Josh ends up winning a Superbowl here. And it's going to be because of McDermott.
We're going to have one of the most tragic stories of a superstar of all-time.
8 hours ago, Success said:Very similar to Manning & the Pats. That was his nemesis for so long.
Then he broke through in '06, in spectacular fashion, coming back from 21-3. And didn't really look back after that - he won the last part of that rivalry.
That's what I'm hoping for. He who laughs last, and all that.
It's not similar at all though. Manning was dreadful individually, himself, for a lot of those games before he broke through. Josh has been spectacular in the majority of these big games.
Peyton was losing those games because of Peyton. Josh is losing those games because of his coach.
