    If anyone believes that I have a bridge to sell you. How would that guy have any information regarding McDermott’s coaching status? Did Beane or Pegula tell him? Very, very unlikely. All coaching staffs are evaluated at the end of the year. Click bait or whatever you wish to call it.
     

    Now, I would love to see the Bills go in another direction but, unfortunately, I just don’t see that happening.

     

     

    The info Albright is getting could be from players or agents

     

    I'm sure other coaches/agents have an idea of what jobs could open

    If Pegula has a real pulse of the team he will fire McD. Do it after the season or wait till they start out slow next year and do it then and wasted another year. Either way, McD has peaked. 

    If firing him next season during the season is even a thought, do it this off season

     

    You can't waste another season on this guy that has no idea how to win games

  3. The bills best opportunity will be to win the division, need the dolphins to lose 1 of the next 4 then they run into the cowboys ravens and bills

     

    With the amount of wins other wild card teams already have coupled with the ease of their schedules and kind of chaos with with QB injuries the bills are too far behind for a wild card unless they win 2 of the next 3 then win out

  4. I don't think it's a coincidence that the game that Allen looked into the game rather than motionless on the bench in between series was also the first game all year he was looking to scramble and pick up yards with his feet

     

    Not sure if that was a Dorsey thing or a McDermott thing or both but it's the biggest thing in opening up other plays in this offense

    My take:  Lenny is a PS player and will be all season unless someone gets hurt

    They will eventually elevate him the max times before having to sign him to the active roster to get some reps with the offense but the signing was always about the playoffs where roster limits expand not regular season

     

    See how they handled john brown and Cole Beasley last season

    Heading up to the game from VA.  Haven't been to a 4:25 game in Buffalo in a long long time - any idea when the majority of parking lots open and should I add time to the trip to the stadium due to new stadium construction?  Thanks in advance.

    Stadium lots should open 12/1230

     

    Private lots probably as early as 8am

     

    Traffic will start to be bad around the same time stadium lots open

    There's actually a lot to be curious about with Nagy. If we are being real, everything in Chicago starts with poor ownership. Yet somehow the dude found the playoffs twice with Trubisky and Foles at QB. Would be interested to see what he would accomplish with better QB play. He's a fan of using both short WCO routes as well as using the deep ball to open things up. 

     

    He's got a reputation for making players buy in and engage by having THEM design some plays (exactly something Andy Reid is lauded for). He's not afraid to take chances and use gadget plays as well. For the "this team isn't having fun anymore" crowd....this keeps it fun for the players. He uses a LOT of RPO, which is something Allen does well. He has this one play he uses effectively.... it's called a SCREEN PLAY. Motion and misdirection. He's quite literally a LOT of what fans are screaming for. When looking into possible coaches for next year one thing he was quoted as saying really caught my eye.

     

     "What can happen, as a player, is you think you need to maybe try a little harder, you may have to act a little different – don't do that. Just be yourself. Do what got you here. As coaches, don't change. If you have a certain style of teaching, then teach that way. Don't change because now you're in the NFL"

     

    Darn it all of this doesn't sound like a guy that will allow Josh Allen to play like JOSH FREAKING ALLEN. 

     

    The NFL has a long history of guys that flamed out in their first coaching stint, learned and went on to success. Sure, you can point to some that didn't as well. But let me ask this. Many people were uneasy about handing the offense to a neophyte OC that had never held the position before. Why would you be eager to turn the ENTIRE TEAM over to someone brand new to the position? I want experience, and Nagy has that. 

    I would like experience as well but want winning experience and that's something likely not available

     

    Making the playoffs with trubisky and foles is interesting but Nagy often is seen as the guy that ruined trubisky with how he handled him

     

    To me he comes across as another Adam gase - guy who has had success with the best QB in the league then struggles elsewhere

     

    What other coaches at the head coach level have failed elsewhere then succeed on the second try?  I can only think of belicheck

    Not sure if anyone has mentioned him yet, but:

    Bobby Slowik, OC for the Houston Texans.

    The latest coach from the Shanahan, McVay, McDaniels, LaFleur group. Just 36 years old.

    If he can do what he's currently doing with a rookie QB and Noah Brown and Tank Dell as his receivers, imagine what he can do with Josh Allen, Stefon Diggs, and Dalton Kincaid.

    Sure, he'd be an unknown as a head coach, but I'd rather take a swing on someone that can maximize Josh's talent than go with some stale re-tread.

    Things have worked pretty well for coaches from this coaching tree lately. And as for Slowik specifically, the proof is in the pudding with the explosive Texans offense.

    Guy has also coached on the defensive side of the ball early in his coaching career if I remember correctly

    I'm probably the only one on this board who thinks the Knox contract isn't bad at all. He's an excellent red zone threat, a great blocker, and right in the middle of the pack in passing catching TEs. 

     

    Dorsey sucked and I'm somewhat convinced that Knox's regression is partially due to that. 

    His contract isn't near the issue that it's made out to be, as he can and will be a very valuable piece on offense (his contract isn't bad at all, it's not good by any circumstance but bad it's not)

     

    I think the Knox hate/dislike all stems from fans seeing Kincaid is better and the coaching staff/Allen not moving towards Kincaid sooner

    I have a small list in my head of coaches that I would be interested in. Some first time coaches (like Ben Johnson) some that maybe should see a second chance that would be I feel very unpopular (like Matt Nagy).

     

    In any event, it's a moot point as I don't get to interview them and see what their vision is.

    No to Matt Nagy, I'd rather keep McDermott for a lifetime before you hire him
