  1. this story was released 2 hrs after McD got canned. “According to team source” aka THE BILLS. They are directly doing damage control. Insane to even argue this. ”According to team source, McDermott was too strict with the characteristics and traits that were necessary for positions on defense. He insisted the team use high draft picks on prospects that he coveted, including edge rusher Boogie Basham, and McDermott pushed back when the Bills scouts recommended talented players who he viewed as unfit to play in his scheme”
  2. I think that’s crazy lol. That’s the definition of damage control. do you also think it was a wild coincidence the stories about Lamar were dropping when it looked like Harbaugh was in danger? how do you think this works? Some guy who just happens to hate McD and thinks he sucks just woke up today and decided to release stories to the press out of nowhere?
  3. You don’t think that nice little piece about McDermott being too rigid in his player demands and negatively affecting roster construction came from the Bills?
  4. Messy because they are very clearly and obviously having a propaganda war via their media mouthpieces?
  5. It’s pretty obvious to me it got messy behind the scenes and that’s why it has appeared so messy.
  6. Sure a splash move at WR may happen (or maybe not?) but now we need our Jonathan Stewart to pair with our DeAngelo Williams. Another year and renewed faith that Beane is DEFINITELY gonna fix WR this time bro. Wake me when it happens. Beane probably still has faith in Coleman with McD out of the picture.
  7. We shall see. I reserve the right to clown you if the Bills go DE, S and RB in the first 3 rounds, Beane to say he wishes he could’ve found a WR but the value wasn’t there, and the Carolina infection to continue to fester.
  8. I think an added benefit of constantly bringing back old players is keeping support in the locker room. We kinda had a steady stream every season of guys in the locker room who loved McD. Micah notably was very vocal about supporting McD after the Dunne hit piece, and the next year is on the PS after basically medically retiring. How much of that was calculated is any guess
  9. Wasn’t this something McD said in Hard Knocks this year? He said that he was noticing some guys weren’t hungry enough out there? I think a new coach is going to wake everybody up, if that was really an issue.
  10. The point was that IF McD was in complete control, him complaining about the roster would be actually insane and completely hypocritical. I conceded that he could probably get hypocritical but my contention is that he was not in complete control and that Beane shared in some of the decisions for good and bad. Does that make sense?
  11. I wasn’t talking about you. I was talking to the guy who accepted my “strawman” and we had a nice productive discussion with some good back and forth and came to a mutual understanding. It was a good time.
  12. “We were 4th in the NFL in points scored, what is everyone bitching about”
  13. My order of desire I think. #1 by a mile - Fire everyone #2 Fire Beane and put a new GM in charge of McD #3 Fire McD and promote Beane #100 Hire Jessica Pegula as president #2396 bring the band back
  14. I think it was viewed as an inevitability by some when their structure first got announced. Their safeguard was that McD and Beane were both on the same side and “aligned” and that the Bills had a ton of team success. It was fine until it wasn’t. Like all things.
  15. McD got what he deserved and Beane didn’t is my take. And that is more of an injustice than them sniping at each other via their media mouthpieces
