Gave McCoy the opportunity to tell his side of the story on the off field stuff. Discussed if he was worried it would impact his career, which he isn’t and said team was behind him.
Discussed a little about his year and McCoy cited the significance of losing their “best lineman” in Incognito, and also Wood and Glenn. Also mentioned how tough it is to have 4 QBs in 16 games due to injuries, especially to their “star rookie”. But said he’s confident in Beane and McD to get the right pieces and expects to be in playoffs as he doesn’t feel we are that far off.
Then they discussed if penalties should be challengeable, McCoy and Stephen A both said no they shouldn’t be while Max said yes.
Then discussed if Rams can pressure and get to Brady. McCoy said if Rams blitz Brady he will make them pay.
Said he’s a Buffalo Bill and picks Rams, but needs to get pressure up middle, not from blitzing or Brady will make them pay.
McCoy was then asked about Wentz and Foles and he was very complimentary of both QBs. They put him on spot who he would want if he was on Eagles and in playoff game, admits he is biased because Foles is his friend so he would take Foles but was very complimentary on Wentz still and said he’s a baller.
Good stuff. Thanks!!?

The HC doesnt usually work with players individually on these things. The OL Coach, WR Coach, ST Coordinator do.
If only he did something about that.?
You’re right. I do think its McDermotts job to set the tolerance level for repeated problem players. Hughes was one such player a couple of years ago and he has improved on that. Maybe it will take more time but is it my imagination or did the team get worse from year 1 to year 2 under Mcd?

This may sound strange but I'm hoping New England wins the Super Bowl, Brady is MVP..., and then retires! Legacy secure until K.C quarterback breaks it in a few years. LOL
I’m hoping that if they win it, Brady and BB will do the smart thing and ride off into the sunset. I don’t think that Belichick is done coaching but not sure that he wants to continue without Brady?
I just feel that it would really get to Brady if he slowly declines and doesn’t go out on top.

The CB for New England JC Jackson had about 3 huge penalties that all lead to KC points and should of sealed it until Dee Ford screwed it all up.
Yeah I didn’t see the entire game. I just mean in general the Pats don’t beat themselves with needless mistakes. False starts, Offside, etc...
I respect them but still can’t stand watching them!
-
Difference between a disciplined football team and one that isn’t. The Patriots don’t beat themselves. I guess that is the one thing that bothers me about this past season. McDermott couldn’t get this team to stop the stupid penalties! It has to change if they want to playing this time of year!

I get the hype, but I think that’s a stretch. He did well in spots and not so well in others. I think he’s shown the signs that he can get there.
He’s not Manning yet....
Agreed. Josh has all the things you can’t coach! Size, arm strength, speed, confidence and a burning desire to play the position! A leader!
Now he is learning the rest. I’ve seen enough improvement to think he will get there. Don’t think that he has been exposed to a lot of good coaching other than at Wyoming. He needs to be more like Manning , consistent and football smart! We will see.
Still love watching him play!

IMO center and both guards need to be improved. Right tackle would be nice too but that’s a lot in one offseason. Also that is Allen’s strong side and it’s easier for him to adjust in the pocket to. We badly need a top center and leader to that line!!! At least one road grader of a guard so our run game has at least one strong side to run behind. Probably left guard first. Not sure if Teller will develop here or not. I’m not concerned with Dawkins as some are . I feel he can do the job at LT!
LG and center ASAP!

I felt real uneasy about drafting Allen. Was sure that Rosen was the guy and didn’t feel that Mayfield will have much upside to his game. Still don’t!
Josh Allen has really impressed me, especially with his athleticism! In no way did I think he was that gifted besides that cannon! The game slowed down much quicker for him than I expected and I absolutely love his attitude and poise!! He has things to work on like slants , swing passes and some passes that he doesn’t need to laser in there. But he does show touch at times like the short pass to Ivory as he was headed out of bounds. Perfect pass just out of reach of the defender!
I’m really glad he is ours now!
-
That is exciting stuff! Winning the division unless Brady really does fall off is more than just acquiring more play makers and improving the o-line. It’s about execution and limiting mistakes. It’s what the Pats do every game. They don’t beat themselves and they execute at a high level!
But we definitely are trending up in talent and we have our franchise Qb!!

Another amazing thing that I don't think anyone's brought up is the fact that Josh Allen made 3 block attempts on running plays that were reversed. He didn't try to avoid the play or avoid the block he welcomed it. I'm telling you guys you probably already know this but this kid is special and he's ours for the next 10 years. He's only going to get better with each game. How stupid I was to think I wanted Rosen over him.....
I was thinking Rosen too! Man so glad we got the right Josh!! He just loves the game ! Wasn’t just talking when he said that QB in the NFL was all he ever wanted to do!

I felt it pretty good on the way out and I wasn’t even a big Kyle fan. I can agree with a lot of this. Wether it be; Shady/Kyle/Wood/Richie etc. It’s Allen’s team now. Right wrong or indifferent...there is no sense fighting it.
When people think of the Bills it won’t be Kyle Williams anymore. Not Shady or even remotely someone else! It’s Josh Allen now!
Thanks for giving everything Kyle!!!

Kyle Williams = Classy Winner!
Thanks for giving everything!!!

Brady is obsessed with being snubbed in the draft and making it clear that he is the best ever! He will not go down easy. More like having to be beaten into retirement!!
-
Gilmore vs a rookie is probably not the best matchup, but he has always struggled against small, quick fast receivers. I would take that shot next year for sure. Once Allen builds more chemistry with his guys!
It’s all about next year and beyond!

Has to be Pats. Taking them down in their own house, when it matters to them and TB12 is playing? Give me that all day!!
That’s me as well! Would love to see our young Qb go in there and stick a dagger thru their hearts in front of all those pats fans!!

I was happy to see the Steelers beat the Patriots yesterday. I was also happy to see Brady have to get up off the ground almost every time he threw the ball.
But as I reflect on the past nearly two decades, I can't help but think that Tom Brady and Bill Belichick have earned the right to leave the game as champs.
There's never been any off-field drama or issues. No broken laws. They've been, arguably, the most professional organization in the NFL for the past 20 years. Sure, Belichick's pressers are boring and don't give any information, but I think that's an art and I love to see it.
Brady has been putting on clinics, week after week, for all football fans to enjoy. We can root for them to lose, but we can also appreciate stellar football, which is what he/team have been putting on display on a very consistent basis.
With the Bills out of it and the Patriots' run clearly coming to an end, I'd like to see them hoist the Lombardi Trophy one last time. It nets them the last pick in the first round (good for Buffalo) and will likely secure the retirements of Brady, Gronk and Belichick (also good for Bills).
And, frankly .... they deserve it.
I really don’t know what to say to this in response. Maybe in 30 years if I’m still alive I would feel that way!

Hahaha nice one
I honestly have no idea why some here talk about his clapping. Most coaches I had when I played sports all clapped to rally troops all the time. Most players too. Its not even abnormal or an anomaly.
In fact, I like it...he always has energy, hes always trying to get his guy energy up. I MUCH PREFER to have my coach fired up always, clapping and yelling at the players then just stand their on the sidelines quiet and moping. How many coaches have we had that had no fire on those sidelines? It was sickening to watch
I mean the negative clapping narrative on this board is quite honestly the stupidest thing to ever exist on this board. And this board had doozie threads like Trade Mario for Skelton straight up.
Are you referring to Dick Jauron?? Yeah rather have the clapping.

Thanks. You make a really good point. I'm not sure either you nor I know whether he's a conservative coach or he's a smart coach being conservative now because that gives his team the best chance to win. I've said often the past few weeks that I hope and expect he'll open up more next season, when he should have stronger offense.
One of the reasons I say he's conservative (or at least playing the season conservatively) is that it seems very clear to me that he doesn't seem to care much if his team scores in the first half, so long as he keeps the game close. He doesn't take risks in the first half. I call that conservative. I get it, and I don't particularly dislike it, but it isn't wide open football in the first half. And, although I agree it's unfair to conclude he's Jauron all over again, Jauron's philosophy very definitely was stay close until the end, which meant play good defense and don't take chances on offense. Until McDermott's team starts regularly putting up 21-point first halves, I think that at least that part of his coaching style can be called conservative.
Also, EVERY coach whose team is out of the playoff hunt is going for it on fourth down now, so I wasn't surprised when he did it yesterday. It didn't take any courage to take that shot.
Plus, his certainly looks like a bend-don't-break defense, which is a conservative approach. Now, that too may change as his talent improves and his guys know his system.
Still, I think what you say is probably true. Next year we'll know, because next year he should have a roster with players he wants playing the way he wants to play. Then we'll know better.
Yes, Mcd is playing to his strengths. Yesterday we had just enough run game to help. Barely enough!! The Lions did have to play the run some but probably they were more concerned with Allen scrambling. That fear does help open up the intermediate routes, especially with the speed of Foster and Mckensie taking the top off! Next year will be a clear indicator of how the will build this offense around Josh!

Yeah, that was something I didn't comment on. I have a different take than you.
I DID think it was odd that they're down to one running back and they come out in the second half and run Ford (or pass to him) about five consecutive plays. I think there were two or three things going on there. They finally took him out and put in DiMarco, and I thought "now they'll pass." Nope, run DiMarco off right tackle.
First, their game plan. I think they thought they could run on the Lions, and they were sticking to their plan. It worked.
Second, McDermott is conservative. As long as the game is close, he wants to run clock. I don't like it, but that's what he does. I hope that next season, with a comfortable QB entrenched in the starting role, with an OC who's now got his feet under him, McDermott will begin to open things up. Allen's too big a weapon to not to let him throw more.
I think next season will be different in the sense that Allen and his receivers will be more in sync. Which is exciting to ponder! Allen held his poise even with the rb situation. The NFL game isn’t too big for him and it’s impressive that without being able to take large chunks of yardage with his legs he still stood tall and delivered with his arm! It doesn’t seem to matter who goes down JA just continues to make things happen. He is the leader of the offense now!

We really need to find one in FA. Rarely is it that a rookie TE plays well enough to make ann impact. Even 1st rounders cannot be counted on, and Allen NEEDS a TE.
Yep. It’s hard to find one in the draft that is ready to be a receiving threat and a good enough blocker at this level.

Pass accuracy problem? How about a recievers that cannot catch a pass when it hits em in the numbers problem?
I hope you were being facetious...
I agree. But today showed another side of Allen. Scrambling for big chunks of yardage not there? No problem he stood tall in the pocket and made throws. Not all were caught but they were there! He displayed great poise even being down to our last threat on the ground. If you can call him that. Allen never blinked. Ran the offense and delivered!

I like where this team is headed. We are definitely further ahead on defense than offense. Allen is the Qb to build on and I feel Shady is worth keeping if the o-line is improved?! Clay is probably done but he can at least block unlike the rest.
We need a “franchise “ center to lead this line and another guard at least. Wide receiver needs help too but Zay has really improved.
Of the coaches I think Castillo needs to be replaced. Considering what we have to put on the field the others have done fine. The o line has shown almost no improvement!
IMO Allen would really benefit from a good TE!! A play maker even possibly in FA. Daboll should have a big say so in the drafting of offensive talent. I don’t think McDermott has that ability yet.But he is awesome on the defensive side!!
Shady probably only has one more season left which is a bummer. I would love to see him get a ring!
Kyle and Lorax too!

Yeh, and besides you won't want to miss "A Football Life: Hank Bullough" How about Billy Joe Playbook?, Joe Dufek?
Absolutely! Back in the day, he made a OBJr - type catch along the right sideline that was off the charts for a WR, let alone a RUNNING BACK! Go Thurm!!
I don’t think I remember a rb making a catch like that before or since! Amazing moment! Really looking forward to this show!!

Blowing up someone half your size from behind who’s not looking isn’t gritty or tough. Its bush league stuff. it was a cheap shot.
Total kitty move...
Yeah, it takes a real man to take out the kicker. Even if it was retaliation for Dawkins.

Absolutely. Those Steeler teams were great at almost every position particularly on defense!!
Unfortunately that makes Brady look even better. But not his teams overall.
