    I don't think that he ***** his pants this time. I think that Chris Jones made a play. Also, if the BIlls had won the game you could say that the Andy Reid ***** his pants with that trick play call on the goal line. Run Pacheco straight ahead and it's a sure 7 points and probably the game.  Listen, I would not shed a single tear if Pegula fired McDermott today. I think that he's pretty good as a leader of men but I don't like his game management skills and I want someone who could bring some of that Shanahan magic. I think that Josh needs a new voice and a completely new offensive system. Not because what the Bills are doing is not working, but I think there needs to be a shakeup. But I also don't think that McDermott was the absolute cause of this loss. The Bills were not "embarrassed" and Reid didn't "completely outcoach" McDermott. Both offenses moved the ball pretty much at will, but the Chiefs made a few extra plays. I will give you that the Chiefs made better HT adjustments, but that's because they had to. We were winning at the half and running the ball with ease. In the end, it was a close game between two good teams. Again, Jones made a heck of a play driving Dion into Josh, or else the Bills may have won the game. That was, BTW, the first great play that Jones made all game. But people on this board are talking like the BIlls got boat raced like the Cowboys did. I get the frustration. I tore my Bills hat apart in the heat of the loss and declared that I was no longer a fan of the Buffalo Bills (I do this every year). My 18-yo daughter broke down in tears. My son didn't call me for 2 days and I still haven't spoken to my mother about the game. But after a few days now I am ready to move on. I also know that Pegula is not firing McDermott so getting worked up about that is futile. I will say that if the Bills draft that white CB from Iowa I will lose my 💩.

    Great post!!!

    This reminds me of the end of the year presser with Kevyn Adams and Granato last season.  No commitment to any type of improvement.

     

    Going to be difficult to even care next year.  I would rather they strip it down and absolutely suck next year then continue on this continued patch work because of the salary cap.

    I disagree here. As a diehard Bills fan I always care. Frustrated and disappointed lingers in my heart and mind as this team continues to scar it's fans. 

     

    I don't think the Bills need a tear or strip down. They are obviously in the top echolon of the league. 

     

    There needs to be improvements made and player development vis the draft and free agency. Hopefully, the team can improve with better results. 

     

    That kind of thinking and optimism has been in play for years now. The results have been disappointing. Hard to do back flips running it back with the same people making the critical decisions. 

     

    I would feel better with a coaching change, different offensive scheme, new leadership, and a refreshing change of scenery.

    I know what you told me (about Dorsey) and I don't think what McD says constitutes a "lie"...I don't think he can tell the press something like that.

     

    He wasn't exactly honest with his answer about 13 seconds. I would have respected him more if he just said " I F'd up." After that, I lost a lot of respect for him as a coach, a leader, and a man of character.

    After the Chiefs game I gave "amnesty" to ALL ignored posters on my list.  I can see you will be back on it soon.

     

    For every "Texans" quick turnaround there are a dozen teams that don't.  I do remember posts of yours, very recently, touted teams

    like the Chargers being so much better run and coached that the Bills. 

     

    How did that work out for you?  Go and post on the fish boards.

    You are a troll.

    Valid point. He's cherry picking for sure. However, it's extremely disappointing that the Bills have lost three straight divisional round playoffs games. Two of which were at home. 

     

    Something has to change because I don't think any Bills fans are happy with this. 

     

    With respect, I ask what's going to be different year? What makes you think the Bills will advance to at least the AFC Championship game? 

     

    Miami gave the Bills all they could handle. Cinci with a healthy Burrow seems to be a poor matchup for Buffalo. KC seemingly owns the Bills.

     

    I expect another playoff appearance for Buffalo but beyond that I have some serious doubts. 

     

    Am I on that list?

    The "progression" of a football team is not always linear. It's often more like a roller coaster, with peaks and valleys.

    Take the Ravens. They're this year's number one seed and may well make the Super Bowl. Lamar was drafted the same year as Josh Allen.

    In 2019, they went 14-2 and lost in the Divisional round.
    In 2020, they went 11-5 and lost in the Divisional round.
    In 2021, they went 8-9 and missed the playoffs.
    In 2022, they went 10-7 and lost in the Wild Card round.

    This year, they went 13-4 and are in the AFC Championship Game.

    How about Peyton Manning's Colts?

    Once they started making the playoffs, they lost in the:

    Divisional round
    Wild Card
    - missed playoffs - 
    Wild Card
    AFCCG
    Divisional round
    Divisional 

    ...before finally winning the Super Bowl.

    The progression of a football team is not always linear. I would say that's the exception rather than the rule, actually. 

    If your thesis is "The Bills should move on from McDermott", then fine. I espoused that very idea midseason. I can't blame you for feeling that way. But if the thesis is "there should be a linear progression to a team's ascent to a championship", I disagree entirely. That rarely happens.

    I get that. Point taken. 

     

    At the same time, players and fans shouldn't be satisfied with continued lack of progression. Especially, with an elite QB. This is exactly the situation the Bills have been in for years under McD. Similarly, the Cowboy and Steeler fan is upset over the same lack of progression in the playoffs. The exception there is neither has a QB of the caliber of Buffalo. 

     

    In theory, you are correct with regards to linear progression. In practicality, I think it's fair for a fan base to think linearly. I mean it's human nature. How many were just happy with making the playoffs? Looking forward to Allen's progression ? The young Buffalo team getting better? So on and so forth...

     

    Fast forward to today and ask yourself are you satisfied with three straight divisional playoff losses? Two of them were in their own building to add injury to insult. 

     

    I'm not here arguing with you. In fact, it's quite the opposite. I likely think we are in agreement here.

    I think it's fair to say much of the fan base is frustrated. Many reasons for optimism and pessimism. After a huge playoff loss I think it's reasonable that negativity outshines positivity.

    I would've canned him after the 13 seconds debacle.  It would've saved having to watch that horrid display last year against the Bengals in the playoffs.  Time to move on from him, Diggs, Bass, Davis, and Miller.

    Let's kick the tires on Mike Vrabel.

    I'm not a Vrabel fan. He's a conservative defensive minded coach. He's very good but not sure about the fit. With that said, I'd take him over McD right now because this team is stagnant. The Bills need to go in a different direction and inject some new blood. Vrabel would certainly do that. 

     

    I would rather go with Ben Johnson, Haurbaugh, or BB. Truthfully, you probably couldn't go wrong with any of them Heck, you could add Pete Carrol to the mix. 

     

    Point being staying the course with McD and expecting different results doesn't seem optimal.

    People are desperate for a different outcome so they're attaching themselves to a different open WR when really no sane person would say Josh chose wrong. Really think about it, if he had chosen that even if we got the first maybe things play out no TD kick the FG, we miss it Josh is killed for not throwing that TD that was open, we make the FG closer but there's time and Mahomes gets in range and they take the lead with a FG and we lose Josh is killed for not throwing that TD, same thing with the FG but we go to OT things play out however they do and we don't win and Josh is killed for not throwing that TD.

     

    There is no winning scenario there unless we win that's all this is.

    Well said. 

     

    Really like the last sentence here. Here's my thought process on it. The Bills are at home playing another huge playoff game. They have a elite QB with experienced playoff coaches and players. Minus Davis the offense is healthy as can be. Under these circumstances, this Bills offense has to get it done! Should have got it done! Winners and championship teams get it done!!! We've seen the Patriots get it done time after time. Add Mahomes to the list. 

     

    We can analyze it til we are blue in the face. The opportunities were there. Players and coaches failed to execute. The defending champs know how to win. The Bills frankly don't. That in a nutshell speaks volumes about this team and coaches. Is there really a winning culture that McD has built? 

     

    I suspect next year the Buffalos, Chiefs, Bengals , Ravens, etc will be there again. Nothing in my mind suggests the Bills with their vast playoff experience, elite QB, and coaching staff will get over the hump. They've proven they can't. Until they can the criticism is 100% warranted.

    It's the Bills that are overrated.  Every team in the league has at least a couple great players other teams would covet. 
    But the Bills are simply also-rans.  Get to the playoffs, win a wild card round game and then go home.  That's great if your this years Green Bay Packers or Houston Texans doing it.  But doing it 3 years in a row just shows what a fringe team the Bills are. Whenever this team improves in one area, such as the running game this year, they fall back in another, such as the receiving corps under-performing.

    We've seen Kansas City rise, also seen Cincinnati rise and get to SB, and Baltimore rising this year.  The Bills are just stagnant. This team hasn't grown, they haven't really tapped into their playoff experience and they just don't seem to want it as much as other teams. 

    Home run here. That's exactly why I'm advocating for change. There has been no progression with the team for three years. In fact, it may have gotten worse. That's debatable but it clearly hasn't gotten better. 

     

    Your analogy is spot on. I'm not thrilled with running it back with McD again. He's had ample opportunity to make advanced only to come up short time after time after time. Last Sunday was a great example of that. 

     

    I get that the Bills defense was decimented. That was a factor in the game. No doubt there. However, the offense was very healthy and they had their chances. Frankly, they blew their chances. Sure the KC D is very good but championship teams score under those conditions; especially with an Allen and at home. 

     

    To fall short again is pretty demoralizing and frustrating. I just don't see how McD leads this team to greener pastures. His message of complimentary football is getting very old. I just wonder what level of confidence players have in him? Of course, publicly they will say all the right things but privately is a whole nother issue. 

     

    Run it back and see Bills Mafia.

    First off, I'd totally let him change if he truly wanted to.  But I'd try the usual dad things first absolutely.  I'd say you know son there are 32 teams trying and fighting to win the Superbowl.  Every year 31 of those teams are going to end their season in disappointment, like we did yesterday.  Everything has to go right for your team to make it there.  They have to get a few breaks, stay fairly healthy, improve as the year goes on.  That's why when it finally does happen for your team, it is so very very special. Buffalo is close, but may need a few new players, maybe new coaching, and less injuries to make it next year.  It's easy just to jump on the wagon of a winning team and say your their fan.  But there is nothing like staying with one team through all their ups, and all their downs, so when you finally get that championship, it means so much more to the true fans who've been there for the entire ride!! 

    Totally disagree here. This is the absolute worst thing you can do. 

     

    His young son has already made his decision. They only right thing to do is to validate his feelings and support his decision. Trying to influence him to change his mind is absolutely counter productive and damaging.

     

    This is all about recognizing, supporting, and validating his son's decisions. He's made it clear it's too difficult for him to be a Bills fan. Yes, it sucks as a dad that's a die hard Bills fan. I get that but you have to take your emotion out of it. You have to take what you want out of it. It's not about you it's about your son. 

     

    Your intentions here are likely helpful but your advice here is harmful.

        Howdy everyone I just wanted to hear your thoughts about something that took place today in my journey of fatherhood. 

          I'm a father of five boys and my oldest is 13 and asked me if he still had to be a Bills fan. Let me rephrase that he asked his grandma my mom to ask me if it's okay if he stops being a Bills fan....

           I've never felt guilty for encouraging  my boys to be  Bills fans as I'm a son of Buffalo I was born there and my whole family on my father's side lives there. When my mother asked him why he said because it's become too upsetting and it's not fun anymore. He said he asked her to ask me because he knew it would break my heart. 

           This isn't a Pity post to be honest and I'm not the type that's going to be like I'm never going to watch this team again or I give up and all that crap that a lot of posters say.... it was a tough season and sometimes when you're extremely close things seem so far away...

           What I'm really looking for is good advice for when I sit down and talk with my boys about this season Etc and being a Bills fan in general I'm sure some of you that are older and wiser than I have had to talk with your sons and daughters....

         I truly see this team as very close.... some more addition by subtraction is needed thank God Bean has drafted some really good talent the past few years to soften the blow of our aging vets as they fade and move on... just a few key pieces I know we say this every year but a few pieces and I think we're there maybe a new coach too maybe not I know that's going to rile some people up but sometimes I'm just unsure about McDermott....

    One before I die just one before I die please

            

          

    Young kids are mostly innocent and pure. Thus they speak brutally honest which is a great thing. Sadly, your boy's thought process here is spot in and 100% correct. There have been far more heartbreaks than successes. Your son has experienced them to it's fullest the last few years. As a father myself, you should absolutely acknowledge and recognize your son's feelings. There is no guilt, disappointment, or embarrassment that should flow out you your mouth. Totally support his decision and validate his feelings. Encourage him to pick another team if he chooses to watch football. That can be your second favorite team and cheer on with him. 

     

    As for myself, I have lived in the San Diego area for 3 decades my son is nearly 20. I made a conscious choice to watch the local charger games with him. He's born and raised in SD and I didn't want to groom him as a Bills fan. Felt like that would be awkward amongst his fellow California friends. Perhaps make him an outsider which I didn't want. Totally different than what you are dealing with. 

     

    Fast forward and he is a charger fan. Not a die hard charger fan but one nevertheless. Talk about pain lol. He's second favorite team is the Bills. I've always tried to make football as entertainment for him. Never wanted him to take it too seriously. I think he's taken this concept really well. He's seen that sometimes I get a little too emotional but I'm thankful that it hasn't carried over.

    I was fine at kickoff with McD too...but honestly, just think this team may need some new blood and new life to break through the mental lapses where we lose late and close games.

     

     

    Brady is the OC - How is that on McD?  This comment doesn't make sense to me.

     

     

    Stupid call, but aggressive which is what everyone always say they want from him while they ignore he is actually one of the most aggressive coaches in the NFL.

     

     

    Play it safe?  Again, Brady calls the O and more importantly how is a 73 yard bomb to Diggs playing it safe?  How is a 29 yard pass to the endzone for Shakir playing it safe?  Where did he play safe for a FG?  I don't get this comment at all, its like the polar opposite of what actually happened.  Again, not trying to defend McD, just really not understanding the reasons you are giving here.  

     

    And I am not even trying to defend McD as I would take BB, Harbaugh or Vrabel today if they were ready to come here too.  But just don't get some of these complaints above in relation to McD yesterday outside maybe the stupid punt fake.

    Really solid takes. 

     

    The way I see it with McD. We all know he built a winning culture. The team quickly made strides and the results were clear and positive. Great regular season victories, division titles, and playoff births. He has done it on a consistent basis year after year. Indisputable.

     

    Bills fans were estatic and optimistic for a pending SB appearance and a Lombardi Trophy. It surely was/is fun watching Bills football. The hope for next year mentality continues and lives on. Draft talk, player changes, and player acquisitions will be discussed. 

     

    However, the bar for the team probably changed around 3 years ago. The above mentioned accomplishments just weren't enough with regards to the team talent. Especially, with a special QB leading the team. A playoff appearance was or is almost a given. The bare minimum if you will. WC playoff victories at home vs inferior teams are great. McD and the Bills have proven to be successful here.

     

    Stats and results dramatically change once this team enters a divisional playoff game. McD isn't able to get the team past this point. A one and done isn't really seen as a successful season by most. Fair or not the bar is very high. Why shouldn't it be? 

     

    Come the divisional round I feel like McD has built a losing culture. The 13 second monumental collapse speaks volumes to support this claim. The Cinci game and now add in KC again. In these games it's more often than not McD has under performed and hasn't been able to get his players to close the deal. Indisputable.

     

    The divisional round failures aren't just coincidences or one offs. There is a clear pattern here. Sure, it's possible next year they get over the hump. We've been waiting now for years with the same negative results. The daggers are still felt by fans and probably the players too. I'm not seeing a coach who has learned from his previous mistakes. I'm seeing a coach who continues to make the same or similar mistakes. That leads me to conclude he's not the right guy for the job anymore. He's peaked out and his message is old, stale, and uncreative. This shouldn't be ignored or taken lightly. 

     

    It's clear the McD era has run it's course but the ones making the decisions can't or don't want to see it. The ultimate frustration for its fans base and this fan. 

     

    Yet, next year most will continue to bang the drum of optimism. Praising player moves, draft choices, and player development.  That's what we do. Beane and McD will make their pitches and sell us the dream of a Lombardi. The hungry fan base will eat it up like a starving homeless person. Most won't be overly critical of what they are feeding us. The general consensus will be hope and optimism. What else can we do? 

     

    At some point, hope and optimism leads to pessimism with continued failures. At some point, change may be optimal and necessary to further the goal that you haven't or can't reach. That line isn't always clear. The Bills appear to be at a crossroads here.

    Jerry Sullivan thinking that leadership involves talking to #######s like him is part of the reason that Jerry Sullivan is an #######

    Once again I disagree. Sullivan was the only one in the Bills media that would ask the tough questions. He was very critical of coaches and players when not one other media soul would say a critical word. 

     

    You might not like his style or questions but Sully was absolutely needed for balanced reporting. Of course, I suspect you have no interest in balanced reporting. Anyone who asks the tough questions or is critical of the Bills players and coaches probably takes a seat in the back of the bus. 

     

    So its no surprise, you would take your shot at Sully. With his departure, the Bills reporters are a bunch of boot lickers. They have let McD placate them like a puppet master. Pulling strings like a seasoned ventriloquist. Sully wasn't a boot licker. He asked the tough questions for many Bills fans. He was for accountability. Sure he crossed the line at times. Crossing the line is a five line when you are asking difficult questions, trying to get answers, and holding people accountable. Everything in Bills world isn't a bouquet of roses at One Bills Drive. 

     

    Instead we are left with softies like Matt Parrino, Alaina Getzenburg, Sal C, Chris Brown, and Maddy Glab. Soft ballers isn't inaccurate here. Surely, they get your stamp of approval. 

     

    This Bills fan misses Sully. In fact, I follow him on Twitter. I always welcome his viewpoint and commend him for stoic  efforts as a solid reporter. Fans disliked him because many prefer a rosey outlook, excuse making,  optimism, and wait til next year. Sound familiar? Stick around here and you will see what I'm talking about.

    McDermott is now 5-6 in the playoffs. All five of the wins have been at home. He’s yet to win on the road going 0-4.

     

    His victories have come against the following QB led teams:

     

    *Indy 27-24 led by Phillip Rivers 

    *NE 47-17 led by Mac Jones (btw has beaten the Bills twice)
    *Baltimore 17-3 led by Lamar Jackson who left the game injured

    *MIA 34-31 led Skylar Thompson

    *Pittsburgh 31-17 led by Mason Rudolph

     

    His losses have been to:

     

    *KC led by Mahomes 
    >38-24

    >42-36

    >27-24
    *Cinncy 27-10 led by Burrows 

    *Houston 22-19 led by Watson

    *Jags 10-3 led by Bortles

     

     

    His playoff track record is beating lower tier QB led teams and has won those games without being upset.

     

    Against good QB led teams in the playoffs his track record is atrocious. IMO, the team under his leadership has squandered and or choked in four of those games. He’s yet to win a game against top tier contenders.

     

    I give McDermott all the credit to building the franchise to what it is today. There is certainly a lot of good in what he does but I continue to come back to the little things that keep holding him back. Lastly, I don’t see much growth from him. Every year there is a common theme. Sure the Bills have won, but how many games have they lost where they had no business losing? At the end of the day coaching matters, preparation matters, scheme and playcalling matters, adjusting during the game matters and time and time again McD and his staff fail in big moments. I really question if he can get them where they’re trying to get to especially when it matters the most!

    I'd take it a step further. McD has proven in Buffalo he can't get it done. You will see similar results next year just last the previous three years. At some point you have to cut your losses.

    Next year is a rebuild year. The only way we get the #1 seed is if McDermott can get decent defensive results with less talent, and we hit on a rookie WR.

     

    The goal should be making the playoffs, possibly winning the division and see what happens after that.

    There should be no talk of winning a SB. 

     

    Yes the goal of this team should be try to make the playoffs. It's a reasonable goal. Anything after that would be gravy. The expectations are too high for this team.

    That wasn't the question.

     

    Allen with Reid would produce multiple rings. Allen with McD equals divisional playoff losses.

    He's only a winner because of who surrounds him. Same reason as Josh not winning the biggest games. 

    He is winning with very few offensive weapons and two poor tackles. Come on now it's ok to give him his props. I don't care for the guy but I do have to admit his greatness. 

     

    Josh is also great but it will be overshadowed by his playoff losses and lack of SB rings. 

     

    Without the ring he will always be looked at with an asterisk. Right now, he's seen as Mahomes little B. 0-3 in head to head match ups.

    Mahomes is the best QB in the NFL and it's not even close. He's a winner and I wouldn't doubt if he challenges Brady's ring count. 

     

    Jefferson is an absolute monster. 

     

    Team them both up and I can coach them to the playoffs. Heck, McD might be able to win a divisional round playoff game.

    As usual anyone could come up with a better response and analysis than you could provide. You probably think Purdy is an amazing qb. I didn’t say Mahomes isn’t a great qb, just he didn’t do anything special last night. He didn’t need to. The running game and pass protection gave him everything he needed to have a comfortable night. Tell us 5 special plays he pulled off that were game changing requiring hall of fame skills? You can’t and you won’t. 

    The point just goes way over your head brother. 

     

    Mahomes marched into Highmark Stadium and led his team to a huge win. He orchestrated the win. He was the conductor of the train.

     

    How many times did the Chiefs punt? How do you think their offense looked? Were the Bills able to stop their offense? 

     

    He did what he had to do to win. There doesn't have to be flash plays, big plays, or magical plays. 

     

    He played within himself, had no turnovers, spread the ball around, used his legs, and led his team to a huge playoff victory on road. 

     

    If you don't think that's special I'm not sure what else to tell you. The guy is a winner.

    You can certainly be angry after last night's game - everyone is.  There is criticism to go around, that's for sure (although some of the things being criticized are ridiculous).  But to come on here often times after wins and post the things that you and some others do is borderline insane.  You want perfection but it's not gonna happen.  

     

    I have no interest in getting into a back and forth with you about this.  You seem to like to live your Bills fanhood through negativity and pessimism.  I don't understand that train of thought or how that is enjoyable.  Enjoy the offseason 

    Let me correct the record of your inaccuracies once again.

     

    You stand behind accusing people of getting enjoyment out of Bills losses because it makes them right? You can't be serious here? Your thinking may be further detached than I thought. 

     

    I don't want perfection. Stop while you still have limited credibility. It's tumbling downhill quick. I suppose you will stand by that unfounded personal attacks. 

     

    I'm not asking you to understand my mindset not if having this mindset is enjoyable or not. Another poke the best statement. 

     

    Well we can agree on one thing we have no interest in going back and forth. 

     

    The purpose of this was to set the record straight. I'm not going to stay silent when inaccuracies are thrown my way. 

     

    Peace out

    So then for you guys today must be Christmas because you get to go in these threads and say “I told you so!” You guys like to watch the Bills with a pessimistic point of view-don’t know how that’s enjoyable but that’s cool for you. Works out perfectly for you though-if the Bills win you get to pretend you’re still a fan and now that they’ve lost you get some sort of weird smug satisfaction out of that too. Cool.

    Bull####! Totally irrational thinking and a total cheap shot. 

     

    I'll speak for myself. Take a seat and listen. Maybe you can learn something. 

     

    I'm as pessimistic as they come. It is what it is. Perhaps the total collapses of centuries of Bills football has scarred my thinking beyond repair. 

     

    Having a pessimistic or optimistic view of the Bills team is neither incorrect or correct. It's a perspective that's subjective. 

     

    I am not playing some sort of hedge game as you imply. Totally ridiculous and unfounded statement that lacks credibility to the max. 

     

    I get no enjoyment when the Bills lose whether I predicted it or not. As a fan, I always want the Bills to win!!! 

     

    I'm not here to play the I told you so card. I give my pessimistic views and try to give some facts and reasonable opinions to back up my thought process. I've said often, I'm more wrong then right. It's about the Bills and not about me being right. I could really give a crap if I'm right. In fact, I want to be wrong because it's often a negative train of thought regarding the Bills. 

     

    Lastly, I'd like to emphasize that being a pessimist doesn't mean I'm any less of a Bills fan. Many here and I suspect you feel otherwise. Sone don't see the glass half full. 

     

    Your post was totally unprofessional and frankly embarrassing.

    Well, sleeping sucked last night, but here's a few of my thoughts - 

    We had a chance to win and Josh made some dumb passes at the end and Ofcourse bass sucked. Having said that, this team over achieved the last half of the season. Half our defense was hurt. We have no wide receivers and our number one can't even catch the ball. This was not the team to win it all. However, getting healthy and adding a few pieces and this team can definitely win it all next year. Even if we pulled this game out, I don't think we would've beat Baltimore 

    Go back to sleep. 

     

    The team didn't over achieve at the end of the season. They played solid football and won games like they should have earlier in the year. 

     

    The defense was hurt all year. Guys stepped up when they needed to. McD had no answers to stop Mahomes. He's the best QB in the league. Pacheco was effective and the Bills pass rush failed to make Mahomes uncomfortable. The Bills D front was as healthy as can be. Yes injuries hurt but healthy veterans and starters had little impact either. Another playoff game where the pass rush didn't show up and the run D was ok. I refuse to use injuries as an excuse. All teams have them and it part of the game. That's why solid non starters are crucial to a teams success. 

     

    The this is not the team to win it all suddenly becomes a theme now? Funny, how that is when the vast majority on here sing a variety song of how the Bills will win it all. A musical theme that plays throughout the season for several years now. Maybe if we say it enough...

     

    The old let's wait til next year theme. Here we go again. That started up early. 

     

    Lastly, the we wouldn't have beaten Baltimore anyway. Damn at least you are full of illogical excuses and thinking. The overwhelming theme here would have been the Bills will beat Baltimore. So get lost with this train of thought. 

     

    Get some rest.

    No, hence the “ Josh’s best years are being wasted.”

    I would LOVE to be waking up to McD and staff let go and we were onto a mini rebuild ( Which we are regardless)

    But, the OP asked a question and I don’t think he will be fired🙁

    It's obvious he's not getting fired. That's not even really a debate.

    Anyone including ownership that thinks things will be different next year is delusional.  This is what you get with McDermott , nothing more sometimes less.

    Mahomes showed he can hit wide open wide recievers and not much more. Not that impressive of a showing vs a decimated defense. 

    Lol. Obviously, your dislike for him outweighs sensibility. Your post is ridiculous.
