ST have been a problem for a while now. We have a really weak kicking/punting game along with kickoff and punt coverage. It's a big weakness and we've seen like in the playoff game vs the Chiefs...it can be the difference. Absolutely zero work was unfortunately put in by Beane/McD to get better here in any area.

I don't listen to or watch that...but if that's the one with Chris Brown it's 100% State-run. He's always been a massive company shill.

This is my big problem. The hardest part is helping my step-father, who is pretty old and lives in a different state and loves football but just has a hard time keeping up with how to get onto all these streaming services. The Sunday Ticket package, which I get for him every year, should absolutely have all these games on it. It is so incredibly ridiculous that on top of this package, people need to also have the apps for and get subscriptions to all of this other garbage. They do their own fanbase so dirty, but they know we’ll keep coming back. It’s infuriating.

Former Panther is at the top of their scouting report above all, so probably

They're kind of obnoxious too but nothing close to Jerry here. The guy is literally telling them that asking him adversarial questions is not their job and then threatens to replace them with corporate stooges. How is it not that bad that he basically just wants State-run radio?

That was pre-Civil Rights Jerry coming out right there

The weather is part of Buffalo football. I don't understand the people who want a dome for us at all. The level of unmanliness is incomprehensible to me.

Yeah but this dude is fat and funny

I prob would've gone fat guy too

Cooper has lost a step so it's not a boon of a trade...but clearly Diggs was done here so Coop's the answer almost by default

Oh great this guy can't kick from 40+ either. Beane and McD definitely have a type.

The reason it matters is because it illustrates where McD still is after 8 years. He has not progressed, and it's likely going to hurt us in the playoffs once again, as it almost always does. It totally is a meltdown. I'm never confident if the game comes down to McD's side of the ball. It's all soft zones and hoping the QB will make a mistake. McD is a coach that's built on beating up on bad QB's. That's why our defenses get torched in the playoffs every single postseason. Literally every single one. And he's never bothered to put in the work to change or improve himself.

If we somehow did get Garrett, the OP would have one of the biggest dunk opportunities in the history of this site This does eventually need to happen. It has to.

And blue collar. I don't want to hear that any of these guys have a degree or invested in Nvidia.

What I don't understand more than anything is the amount of kool-aid that's willing to be drunk when it comes to trusting Beane and McD especially. Like anyone who was being rational could see this WR group was lacking but there's this way over-inflated amount of grace and credibility to a regime that has really underperformed with an elite QB. We're a franchise with a top 3 and we've had 3 Divisional Round losses in a row and nothing has improved or progressed since the AFC title game back in 2020. If we're being real...a healthy amount of skepticism is what McBeane have really earned here. But instead you get this sentiment of "You're all doomers if you say anything negative about this WR group! You just don't understand the talent and game the way we and McBeane do!" Being a realist is not being a doomer, that's something that was conflated with this topic and many others here.

They should be rapid-fire questions, even from our media. He probably wouldn't be able to answer most of those. It would be like watching a Presidential Debate, he'd repeat the question and then just deflect and talk about character, work ethic, and preparation...3 things he personally would know absolutely nothing about.

We’re in McD’s 8th season where this has happened to him a number of times and he’s done absolutely nothing learn from it. We’re actually fortunate it hasn’t happened to us a couple more times like last year vs TB. I’ve never seen a coach work less hard at improving himself than McD.

What a season! Most lovable team in my lifetime for sure, granted I've never seen a championship, but I've never seen a team of ours have this much resilience and fight. Anyone else in California or going to California for any of the NLCS games?

Haha who gets to be McD's fall guy this time then? He's never going to make himself accountable.

I've never understood this as an argument to keep him. Who cares if someone else would hire him after we fire him? He's horrific at what he does, let someone else have him.

Beane and McD will probably stay here because of what the standards are for Pegula and a good chunk of the fanbase - to just be good. Nothing more. The standard here is not a Superbowl. That's just reality. We've been stagnant for 4 years now. What has progressed? Nothing has gotten better. Since going to the AFC title game 4 years ago, we can't even get out of the Divisional Round and we don't look to be any better than that this year. We are wasting a generational talent at QB. But for so many, it's good enough. It's sad to see because with a solid level of competence at Head Coach and GM, we'd probably have a SB by now and/or be in a better position today.

We should be doing the same with McD but we won't

It's never Rodgers' fault, just ask him

McD has done this sooooo many times in his 8 years here. It’s hard to comprehend how dumb of a Head Coach he truly is and how little effort he puts into preparation

In the end it doesn’t matter. He’s the head coach he can overrule any call. He’s either incompetent himself or hires incompetent coaches. I would say because we have consistently had horrendous game management during his time here…the problem is him. Not saying this is what you did, but so many people for years would hold McD blameless for our horrible playoff and end of game defenses and say it was just Frazier, as if McD was completely helpless to change anything or make a different call or fire him and hire someone else. The guy simply has no idea what he’s doing after 8 years on the job and many more as an assistant or coordinator. His time to go was many years ago now.
