Pitt seems to win every game in the bottom of the 9th

Landing on Knox having a TD in this game and this not aging well 😄 Jokes aside, I never felt like Knox coming back was bad. I like Shakir and Dalton getting the snaps. If Knox takes the 40-50 snaps as TE2 I will take it. Perhaps against KC we might even feel 12 personnel make more sense. I like Brady managing this way more than Dorsey, that's for sure.

That Michigan is throwing the sink at Jim because they know he's sick of the NCAA and he beats the Ohio team? I could have told you this a few weeks ago. Not news.

You gonna EPA all up on this 😄

I hope SNL has the decency to parody this

I added that 13 seconds part....

I did read it. I'm trying to wrap my head around the logic. So he knew all the people beforehand that had an "axe" to grind? So if that's true and he just used people who didn't like Sean than I imagine we should hear some people come out and support Sean right?

So the assumption is he interviewed 200 people and went with the 25 that has something bad to say. Got it.

Do you believe people are accepting responsibility when they say broadly "I accept responsibility" or when they talk specifically about what they're accepting responsibility for?

In addition, if this article is such a grave injustice we should hear about it

Who could believe a guy who used 9/11 to preach good communication could have 12 men on the field for a FG or a squib call not get to kicker. The whole article has to be wrong.

"I brought everybody together and said this was the goal, this was the intent, and I apologize if anyone whatsoever felt a certain type of way coming out of that meeting," McDermott said. "If anyone misinterpreted or didn't understand my message, I apologize. I didn't do a good enough job of communicating clearly the intent of my message. That was about the importance of communication and that everyone needs to be on the same page, ironically enough. So that was important to me then and still is now......13 seconds was also my fault"

Just had this thought as well. It will be interesting. This would be a moment where if I agreed with it "no comment". If I didn't, I would be adamant.

Not everybody you let go should have a score to settle. That is if you have a decent relationship with them. Further, if he has decent relationships with people I would expect former coaches and players to come out and defend him. If he can't generate any defense off this it says all you need to know.

He won 2 more games than Ryan did with the same roster. Then road a top 3 QB to a divisional playoff win.

When asked about the teams recent increase in false starts McD discussed how disciplined Hitler was and if we can borrow from that process we might be able to take the next step. He then touched on the importance of timing in the Eagles game saying sure Josh scored early, timing matters, just look at how Hamas attacked Israel.

It would have to be an active thought to even slip up. Which is really weird TBH and I'm REALLY weird.

I'm trying to understand what is more bizarre. A guy accidently landing on an example about 9/11 being good team work or a guy intentionally landing on 9/11 being a good example about team work.

Do you think if he interviewed the currently employed they would be in a position to be honest? I understand interviewing former employees will produce a certain amount of negativity at times but I would also argue that it should produce some balance. How you end relationships and how those people feel after can say a lot about the quality of those relationships. I have had to let go a lot of people as I'm sure others have here. Some don't care for me and the situation was limited in how I could impact that, but certainly a huge % would still say at least neutral if not positive things. How you arrive at those outcomes and how you communicate is what is required to be a good leader with effective communication. If McD has people 20+ people waiting to BBQ him that might say more than you're giving it credit for about the type of relationships he had.

Things we know about Sean He is not an offensive mind He is not the most skilled at relating to players He does not make good decisions late in games He has struggled to maintain coordinators He has not been able to parlay regular season success into postseason success I don't need all these by any stretch. But I have a hard time thinking of any Super Bowl head coach has all this against him and in my mind, these are not really debatable things. You don't need this article to land on any of the above.

Josh would give you credit for his development if you were a coach of the Bills. He's essentially all inclusive in his praise. It's who he is as a person.

100% the Sharp article was purely an opinion piece. I don't believe this is the same thing.

Those snaps are not in two TE sets. They have run two TE's on 8 plays the last two games.

I have pounded the table over worse things

If you asked me to name two difference makers for the Bills on offense over the past several weeks I'm going with Shakir and Kincaid. Some might feel Shakir is a JAG, but I think he is a sneaky good route runner. Kincaid is certainly developing into a a legit weapon in front of our eyes. I enjoy Knox's energy, I just don't know where he fits in anymore. If he takes snaps over Kinkaid I feel like we lose. If we go to 12 personnel and he takes snaps away from Shakir I feel we lose. I could see him benefiting us in situational spots as we go to 12 personnel or Dalton needs a breather, but this offense has lived in 3 WR/ 1 TE looks since the Jets game. I think that is our most prolific base formation. Longer term where does Knox fit into all of it? If we cut him next year we save about 6 million. Plenty of dead money comes with it, but again 6 million in savings. Do any of you think the long term play would be to keep them both? With Brady running point I'm more confident we will not allow his return to derail what we have been doing well. It's sort of weird to feel like this when getting an injured player back. Especially one who has made some plays in the past for us just not so much of late.
