I’m sorry you have low expectations and are afraid to think this team should be defeating good teams at home by year 4 of McD.
If you expect your team to never loose a game, then sport isn't for you -- maybe try video games where you can restart the game when you don't get the result you wanted.
This is a dramatically improved team that's 4-2 and leading the division by two games. We'll only know if this team has lived up to our expectations at the end of the season. 9-7 lifting the Lombardi trophy is always better than 14-2 losing in the first round.

My god it’s two ***** games for Christ sakes and two games against two really good teams. This defense really needs Star back. Also for everyone on here that’s saying that Beane made a mistake by not resigning Lawson or Philips please remind me what either are doing for their new teams?
And let's not forget that so many on this board and elsewhere perpetually called Star a bust and HATED that this staff played him as much as they did.

What’s unbelievable is losing a playoff game to Bill O’Brien up 16-0 with 21 minutes left in the game. That was the last big primetime game McD was in.
Entering this season McD was 3-17 against playoff teams or in the post-season. He did nothing tonight to show he can be anything but unimaginative in game-planning and game management.
We didn't go to the playoffs for the better part of twenty years and are 4-2, two games up in the division, with losses to inarguably the best two teams in the AFC thus far this season. Shouldn't we at least wait to fall out of the division lead or the playoff hunt before getting the pitchforks out?

We're 4-2 coming off a playoff appearance and up two games in the division and some people want to start from scratch. Unbelievable.

Go ask Bengals fans what they thought about Marvin Lewis
McD was a great coach to get us over that hump but he will never take us deep into the playoffs or win a SB. He just isn't at that level. years of mediocrity have blinded bills fans into believing he is a top tier HC.
I don't know how you know that -- maybe its the years of mediocrity that have you missing the forest for the trees.
Let's face it -- this team wasn't going 16-0 or 15-1 -- we lost to inarguably the top two teams in the AFC under some literally unprecedented circumstances. This is a staff that has completely rebuilt the team in three years and given me the only two playoff appearances of my adult life. It doesn't mean I'm not worried about our defense and consistency on offense, but we're 4-2 and they've earned at the VERY LEAST the rest of the season before jumping to judgement about the future of the staff.

They are listed as questionable. Yes, they practiced fully during the week, but that doesn't mean they are 100%. List them as questionable, because it is still entirely possible an injury gets reaggravated during warm ups or something. I think they will likely play, but still realize they are definitely not 100%
They did away with the 'probable' designation a few seasons ago. If you've got an injury that you've received treatment for throughout the week, you're 'questionable' the same as someone who has been limited all week and actually 50-50 on playing.

The first game I've been really nervous about since the playoff game last year. A win tonight is going to be huge for our confidence.

If White is healthy he covers up a lot of issues on this defense and makes it a lot easier to give help to Norman and our banged up linebackers.

I didn't see the Packers stinker coming earlier today -- hoping the Rams turn it around so my SNF-MNF Rams-Cowboys parlay stays in play.

I love how physical the 49ers run game is. Mostert runs so damn hard. It sets up their passing game.
It's hard to believe he bounced around with four teams before ending up in San Francisco. That combination of speed and physicality jumps out every time I've caught one of his games.

I can't think of another Bills QB drafted into a bigger dumpster fire. He never had a chance from day one. It's comparable to Darnold's current situation, IMO.
While I think this had something to do with his ultimate failure as an NFL QB, I would never say it's the only reason.
There was definitely talent around him at times -- seeing Woods on SNF tonight reminds me of the Watkins-Woods-Goodwin lineup that had so much potential along with Jackson and Spiller in the backfield. We did him no favors putting him out there as early as we did, with a first time NFL offensive coordinator moonlighting as quarterbacks coach and no 'mentoring' veteran presence in the quarterbacks room after Kolb went down.

Robert Woods has gone onto be a really solid WR. Really liked him. Just shows without a solid QB, it doesn’t matter the talent that you have at WR.
He's a dog -- I love the way he plays.
There was so much unrealized potential in that Sammy-Woods-Goodwin receiver lineup that between bad QB play, injuries and bad coaching was never realized.

I agree - and from the NY Times - "Through four weeks of the 2020 season, the average combined score of a game is 51.3 points, an increase of 16 percent over the same period a year ago and a roughly 20 percent increase in the average score of games since 2000.
This is absolutely worth considering -- our team is far from the only winning team to have uncharacteristic struggles on defense this season.
Baltimore's strong defense almost let a completely depleted Eagles team back into their game today, while the Colts defense that has been one of the strongest this year gave up 27 to the Bengals and put up a stinker against the Jaguars.

They have multiple first rounders for the next two years and could probably get a second for Darnold. They will have ammo to load up.
They've definitely got some draft assets, but it is going to take way more than what is likely to be two late first round picks over two years and whatever they get selling Sam Darnold at absolute rock bottom to be competitive.
And that's if they start hitting on their draft picks and developing and retaining their drafted talent.

The cupboard is going to be pretty bare for whoever replaces Gase.

I am on YouTube TV and was able to catch the game just fine. I ran through the gambit of free trials on streaming services before settling on YouTube TV and I've preferred it to Hulu and the others FWIW - I'm in the DC market though so they have all my affiliates, that would be one thing to double check before signing up.
