But he puts people in motion
Wonder if all the media who've been bowing to the quirky greasy innovative genius are going to start to change their takes
He’s good at somewhat obscuring the like three different route combinations they run all game long lol. There’s really no reason not to play them single high and cheat inside, drop 7 defenders because tua only gets more uncomfortable the more time he gets and won’t even attempt to throw it outside the numbers unless it’s a deep go
I think the bills and ravens gave the league the blueprint and McDaniel knows it.
I see a lot of injury excuses being made but their offense wasn’t outlandishly injured for week 18 of an nfl season and we were down to a third string LB and lost our best corner in the game so their offense vs our defense evened out injury wise. Not to mention our previously best edge rusher that we’re paying a bajillion dollars may as well be injured still 😂

I don't think this is the case. It's really difficult to hate or dislike McD the person. I won't go into detail but it's pretty clear he's a man of religion and character. Sure seems to be a compassionate man.
I think the McD dissenters comes from his playoff blunders, Xs and Os mistakes, and not getting the team to the SB.
Both are vastly different criteria. No Bills fan in there right mind would advocate for a loss on Sunday for the reason of disliking McD.
I think your post is really disturbing. Slinging mud to sling it has no place here.
Go Bills!!!
I’m always a bit perplexed by the ‘not getting a team to the Super Bowl in 6 years requires firing’ point…look at John harbaugh. The guy has won one in 16 years
Look at Mike Tomlin…hasn’t sniffed the Super Bowl in 14 years and won one in 17 total years
Kyle shanahan has been to one superbowl in 6 years and also had an epic collapse as OC of the falcons
McCarthy hasn’t been to one in the last 12 years and has 1 in 25 years coaching
Reid has won 2 in 24 years(unless offensive assistant counts)
that’s the longer tenured guys in the playoff field and they’ve won 5 superbowls in like 90 years coaching 😂. That’s an average of 1 win every 18 years or so

The swearing seems unnatural and excessive. Just like the Jets D coordinator, MM should tone it down.You hit the nail on the head. He is trying too hard to be cool. It is almost like a fan won a contest and got the HC job. MM is trying to impress the players with his tough talk, cheering in practice and be their buddy.
Like I said in another thread about HK, I do think it has to be hard to come up with stuff to say to professional football players, especially veterans, week in and week out to get them motivated. I don’t envy coaches unless they get fired and receive a huge buy-out. 😀
I wonder if MM would make a really good OC. He can be the good cop and focus on game planning. Let the HC be the bad cop.
Startin to think he’s overrated even as an OC…or it could be tua holding the offense back too or a little bit of both. They run the same couple route combos all game long and it ain’t fooling the better teams at all. They average like 15ppg against playoff teams

God, I am so tired of the weather taking a.... every time we have a crucial game. I know it's out of our control, but it's frustrating. I feel like Pittsburgh's run game is a little stronger?
Pitt couldn’t do anything running the ball until their passing game opened up

I feel this way about the TD vs turnover debate. Every TD counts for 6 points. Not every turnover provides the opposition with 6 points. TDs are a much more important stat than turnovers.
I can’t remember any josh turnovers on our side of the field at all lol. It’s honestly pretty wild. A lot of guys with less turnovers have put their team in much worse shape than Josh has

Should’ve won but blew it? They got outgained by 200 yards and got like 2 first downs in the second half. They were fortunate to not lose by 30+ again
we lost a bunch of important players in this one …they had Spector and Dane Jackson to pick on and got two first downs all second half. Two?!
I’ll give them some benefit of the doubt for their defensive injuries but even at full strength they are objectively a tier or two below the bills
edit: wow I don’t even think it was 2 haha I think it was 1 😂

We need to somehow avoid the Browns. They would flatten us.
If we make it, I think we would beat SF. I would like to see Detroit but it probably won’t happen.
Browns are the most overrated team I can remember in recent playoff history lol. Defense has been great but the Flacco story is so feel-good that nobody is really looking into what he’s been doin too closely. Obviously it’s not a cakewalk straight up but as far as who you’ll run into in the second/third round of the playoffs that’s about as easy as it’s gonna get. That chiefs defense is not terribly far behind Cleveland’s and their offense has a lot more upside. Baltimore is right there in defense and their offense is much better as well
I think we’d be a 7 point favorite against Cleveland-

I think he’s safe regardless but if we get absolutely blown out you never know…first round exit or worse this year and next year id expect him gone though

First: he digged the hole he is now getting credit for getting out of.
Second, we squeaked out wins against undermanned teams over the past 5 games. Let's not get ahead of ourselves and see what happens in the playoffs, when most McD issues arise.
This is a very half empty vs half full situation that I can’t blame anyone for feeling either way on. I can’t personally blame him for squeaking by undermanned teams when we lost quite a few close games as a very undermanned team ourselves but to each their own.
to me everything evened out over the course of the season, we had big late calls bail us out and screw us in other games, we had a ton of injuries and played some injured teams, and we exactly met expectations. All things considered I’d take blowing some easy games and playing great against good teams over the alternative

At the end of the day, a lot of the INT's don't really matter. I mean is an INT on 4th down where the other team gets the ball at their own 5 yard line really worse than a punt? I think the way people view football scenarios is very flawed in terms of the importance of turnovers. Is a team that punts 8 times and has no turnovers in a game more likely to win than the Bills who turn the ball over 3 times? I would say most likely no.
Its been better than a punt more often than not this year lol
-
What’s the story with td/int ratio around the league this year? More dbs holding and it not getting called? It felt like last year everyone was way higher it’s not just a josh thing
not only are ints up it feels like passing tds are way down

Lol, I saw that. It’s perfect. You were able to be pleasantly surprised. The Bills drafted a talented pass catching TE and he’s actually good. If they would have realized that before like week 8, they’d be even better off.
He would’ve had a big year anyway if he didn’t hurt his thumb…looked like he had trouble catching for a few weeks after the thumb injury. Still a great rookie season nonetheless

I posted this wondering if we could glean anything from the preseason loss against the Steelers. Two pages in and not one point or reference to that game has been mentioned. 😂
In the past, I would worry that the Steelers could "out physical" Buffalo. But in this case I don't think that's going to happen. Buffalo is physical enough to hang with Pittsburgh and Tomlin's old school style.
I know Tomlin talks up the offensive and defensive lines. The Bills need to be prepared to compete at the line of scrimmage, much like that they did against Miami and Dallas.
If the weather is windy and cold, that will limit the downfield passing game, and limit the amount of time Josh can operate out of the shotgun. In the preseason, I think Josh took every snap out of shotgun and I am not sure that Dorsey ran the ball at all.
I guess it's going to be a super physical game.
Unless the game plan is for Josh to use his arm to cut through the wind (?), which I think would be the wrong approach.
Felt like mostly offensive line/wrs blocking related penalties that derailed us on offense in the preseason game. My only memory of that game was us having like a 3rd and 30 lol I think no watt and a whole season of the offensive line getting snaps will clean that up
I remember being more worried about the defense after that one though…Steelers marched right down and scored back to back drives

VERY concerned about that forecast. Would absolutely be a possible equalizer and favor PERFECTLY the style and strengths of their team.
They couldn’t run the ball at all until the passing game picked up…don’t think they’re really suited to be a one dimensional smashmouth team

Weather can be an equalizer, yes. But I'd say overall a weather game benefits whichever team has a 6'5 240 lb stampeding antelope at QB, and whichever team has 85,000 fans further disrupting the opposition.
People are still scarred by that pats wind game lol

A big part of it was we lost 3 star defensive players in a two week period and had to figure out how to recover and stabilize from that, meanwhile our OC had his head trapped in a Walmart plastic bag.
Oh yea that goes without saying too…I just didn’t feel like going through the ‘but every team has injuries’ then ‘yea but not to their 3-4 best defensive players’ debate again haha that defense we fielded against the pats was garbage…no Ed no Daquan no Milano no white or Douglas yet

and to be fair after the Broncos game we absolutely deserved that kind of talk.
Looking back on it I feel like a small part of it was just catching teams at the wrong time. We def sucked too though no question lol. The jets weren’t a joke yet week 1 because their oline was still in decent shape, then we got jax who were waiting for us in London and Denver on a crazy forced turnover hot streak. We got the bengals with burrow when a lot of the other wildcard hopefuls got them without. Steelers got them without burrow twice.

It’s just so much funnier because Miami just doesn’t beat winning teams. Like in what world did we not have a chance next week?

My biggest worry is that the Steelers arent good enough for the Bills to play UP to.
We seem to play down to bad teams, and especially make bad QBs look great.
I can’t argue with that logic…that’s a way to look at it that actually scares me 😂

My point is that the Steelers are going to have a "nothing to lose" mentality because they're a 7-seed with a 3rd string QB that barely made the playoffs, coming in as 7.5 point underdogs.
You can absolutely bet that Mike Tomlin is going to be in their ears saying "no one believes in us or expects anything from us. We're supposed to lose this week. Show 'em who we are".
Put simply, the pressure is on Buffalo, the 2-seed playing at home that has had demoralizing playoff exits two years in a row. The pressure is not on the 7-seed starting Mason Rudolph at QB, who no one thought would be there anyway.Our team seems to only play well when the pressure is at its absolute highest possible point these days lol this might have scared me more a few years ago. Spread is up to -10 despite the over/under dropping to account for the weather for all those wind doomers out there 🤣

Def hurts those outside runs and he randomly has a huge game but there’s a lot of mistakes in the josh/davis connection too

The more wind there is, the more both teams will need to rely on the run game and not their QB’s arm. And yes, Rudolph’s passing game would be rendered to zero before Allen’s, but we better hope our running game is also solid in that scenario then too, which I do believe it can be. Steelers running game is dangerous as well. @billsrul120 There’s a reason you ultimately say you’d prefer no wind, because of all the uncertainty and equalizing element it brings to the table.It’s really not that simple…if you can’t really attempt to pass,the run game suffers also if you can’t at least threaten that you’re two dimensional still. Yes there’s a point where there’s so much wind that neither team could pass but we are not near that level.
The steelers run game is directly linked to how their qb is playing and it really didn’t pick up consistently until Rudolph started hitting passes downfield. A good chunk of the season the Steelers offense was an absolute disaster
Steelers @ Bills. Monday, January 15th at 4:30pm.

Pits oline is pretty bad…these are weird takes. It’s like they’re hung up on what these franchises are usually known for over how they’ve been playing this year. The bills have been much better in the trenches in both sides of the ball compared to years past
their dline is pretty bad too without watt
