No.
McD's side of the ball has failed us in literally every single postseason, along with his game management. Literally every single one. Since going to the AFC title game 4 years ago we've had 3 straight Division Round exits with a generational QB.
He has wildly underperformed with what he's had to work with. He's been given a tremendous amount of resources for his side of the ball and a QB on the other side who has with the exception of one game delivered consistently over the years only to NEVER, ever come up big in big moments or games.
It has to change in January for that sentiment to go away as many have said, it's that simple. Regular season "success" with at worst the 2nd best QB in the league and a generational talent just doesn't mean much. Potentially wasting his entire 20's with no Super Bowl because of the incredibly lackluster support in January from his side of the ball and game management responsibilities would be a massive problem and disappointment.
I don't understand the faction of people who are saying we've had "too much success" to let him go. 3 straight Divisional Round exits with a guy you should be in the SB conversation with every year? One of those exits which directly featured his personal own massive meltdown that cost it for us? I don't get it.

I’m there, I love going to CA! I spend most of my time there in San Diego, that may be why. I’ll just drive up the couple hours that morning for the game.
Pumped!

I saw thar, most expensive game I’ve seen this year. -
It’s obviously on both Eberflus and Caleb…but I just don’t get how you can be a coach on the sideline watching what’s happening and the clock and just let it happen like that.

This should be allowed. Guns are cool. The entire nation has their panties in a knot about the dumbest things, sometimes. We need to go back to the 90s when nobody cared about anything! When comedy was funny. When you could make fun of anyone and they could make fun of you. Good times.
I would disagree with you on the comedy part. There's a lot of good comedy out there right now.

nothing. he is insignificant in my life. he and the entire kelce family is one big goofball script. travis is worse than his brother, however - but there is nothing i find enjoyable about either. too manufactured and cornball.
I don't really mind them outside of hating Travis for being a Chief. I saw Jason on the Mythical Kitchen Last Meal thing and he seemed cool. -

Beane (and McDermott) are getting better at their jobs.
They don't just preach the growth process, they're doing it.
I would agree on the Beane part -

if bass doesn't miss the extra point and Allen didn't throw that bad int, we get 34 points without a decent amount of starters and a game plan that is obviously hiding some stuff.
That's pretty good considering that KC defense hasn't allowed 28 plus in 30! games.... KC had won 15 straight and we pretty much controlled that game.
We had a couple opportunities to open up the lead too.
I think that means something.
I see a great team in Buffalo that has had some bad luck in the past.
The only time I've ever felt KC was better and I actually had a healthy fear of them was 2020. They were clearly better than us in the AFC championship and that difference in play flipped in 2021.
Like I said we've just had some bad luck
2021 wasn’t bad luck, it was bad coaching and yes, again demanding for 17 to be Superman.
Coaching led by McD has been a massive liability for us, especially in January. I’m not sure much of that part has changed.
I think our roster is better than last year overall and hope that’s enough to win in spite of our deficiencies on the sidelines, but again we saw the same thing we’re up against - plays that generally don’t work that Allen has to go off script and especially make great plays on 3rd and longs. He got it done but that’s why it’s so hard for us to win in January. That combined with McD’s D that never comes up big in those games…which he even knew going into that 4th and 2 that they wouldn’t have gotten that stop…and I think it’s the same script that we’re hoping for with a different ending from which is possible with Josh.
But I’m not seeing what’s noticeably different…dude still has to wear the cape.

I’m not sure there’s a whole lot that’s different about the overall product though.
Not much of what Brady was doing was actually working, it was still a lot of Josh wearing the cape on 3rd and 4th down. Those are not high percentage plays, he’s just an animal but it makes it all so much harder. The ask from him is much more than the ask of the Chiefs from Mahomes.
And we knew if we kicked the FG and made them score a TD…they would have. Same if we didn’t convert and they just needed a FG. McD knows his side of the ball can’t get it done when it matters most, especially against that team.
I’m still optimistic because I think #17 can win us that game in January. But I think it’s the same story as all the other seasons in the playoffs under this regime…he’s going to have to be Superman for us to do it.

Not a Barstool fan myself, but it didn’t sell for half a billion dollars because everyone hated the concept.
Gruden is the Matthew McConaughey of sports personalities: he always gets into character. The same character. And someone keeps paying him. So he won’t stop.
Right. I used to like Barstool years ago, not really anymore, but they have a big following obviously. A lot of people probably disagree because they still have so many followers, which is fine as there’s plenty of content to go around for everyone, but I thought their content started to become much more manufactured than it used to be.
Also agree on Gruden. I didn’t like him on Monday nights because he was so afraid to be critical, especially of QB’s because he probably didn’t want to be disliked by them. I think he even glazed on Trent Edwards one night where he was literally just in Captain Checkdown mode and I just couldn’t believe he was watching the same game I was.

Happy election day.
Regardless of what we believe politically, we all are voting with who we pick because we are doing what we think is right for ourselves and our country. I hope everyone either gets out to vote today or was able to vote early. We are all Americans and Bills fans first.
I haven't come to this section for a long time because it's so largely just hateful and it become almost impossible to just have normal discussions...but yeah a lot of people here forget that last part. Honestly myself included as I let myself get sucked into it when I was coming here. I'm more detached also because I don't like either candidate but hopefully people are at least somewhat cool to the other side if their person wins.
But I have my doubts about that.

Anyone else feel like it sounds like he's going through more than just the adversity that comes from missing kicks?
A lot of tears and just the depth of the way mcd talked about overcoming that adversity and his teammates being there for him...I dunno if you get that level of depth to these emotions if it's just a slump on the field and there isn't maybe something else going on that is making it really hard to focus at the insane level required
It was probably because of last season and how it carried over and he had to basically win a competition to stay -
Allen and the offense have been awesome.
I don’t know how we can keep doing this with Bass. We’re in a league where kickers are regularly booming in kicks over 50 and we’re sweating out extra points. We can’t even rely on Bass to possibly make anything over 50 and anything over 40 is shaky.

Fwiw you can hate mcd but for the challenge he is relying on guys upstairs to tell him whether to challenge - that is literally their job
He’s been horrific at challenges for years and he has the power to make changes to the guys upstairs.
This is the same thing McD backers did with Leslie Frazier.
This is McD’s team. It’s on him.

I would say I agree that we have some issues in tight games...mostly for me because of McD....
But I heavily disagree that we should "let" teams keep the score close. There's nothing tough about that. You always want the mindset of stomping your foot on the other team's throat.

Several people are lamenting today that the national sports shows are largely ignoring the Bills win over Tennessee. We all have to keep in mind, the Bills wins this season are over teams that have a combined winning percentage of around .256. Obviously had they beaten Baltimore or Houston that would be higher, but .256 is not going to move the needle for most media. The Bills have a reputation of putting up good stats against the Tennessee's of the world.
I actually don't mind if Buffalo skates into the playoffs this year by feasting on the mediocre to bad teams. If they lose to Balt, Hous, KC I can live with that since Buffalo would have the revenge payback all lined up for the playoff games. McDermott is great in revenge games and i want to have that chip in the playoffs.
McD's great in revenge games? We've lost to the same team in the playoffs in 3 out of the last 4 years, including one that he literally completely melted down in and blew himself.

With a win this Sunday, Coach McDermott will join some elite company
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
As it should when he has #17. That's rightfully the expectation. Plenty of coaches could have "successful" regular seasons with that level of a QB.
