McDermott might(has?) become another Mike Tomlin Roster good enough to go year after year in playoffs with no realistic chance to win the big one unless all stars align

and unfortunately those minus one generally happen in playoffs

again ???

too much truth from the OP for today

I think Shakir, if well coached (schemes), could become a young Hill

and this recently

We are a bottom 10 defense in playoffs

This guy looks like a younger Andy Reid

If you expect something good with with defense when we reach the playoffs, you are fooling yourself So, I expect pain

You mean quite the opposite of the Bills defense for 4 years now ?

so, all we have to do as fans is waiting McDermott hopefully follow the same path than Reid, and figure it 10-15 years from now ? that's all you have ?

Some people like masochism ...

interesting, that's 3 years in a row the team who beat the Bills in playoffs lost the very next game

13s * 3 = 39s

what a good defense can do

I read too fast, I saw Bills hire Fangio as DC :slap:

Pain

Since we won't change defensive schemes, can we have back at least the red helmet ?

to summarize it in another way in my mind this was 13 seconds (watch until the end if you somehow haven't watched the movie) this was Cinci

you mean like this ? I noticed that too

If I saw this topic monday or tuesday, I would have said, the answer is obvious and I wouldn't even have open this topic I was stunned and pretty much disgusted with the 13 seconds. I thought they found a new imaginative way to fail, AGAIN. I thought this was their best chance to get the Lombardi But I had hope. Because without this fluke, I thought the team was overall great and the following season beginning was "great", smashing everyone, KC included With the Cinci fail, I wasn't upset during the game, we were playing meh or risky and thought some dices rolled our way during the 8 games streak win So I thought, we were due this loss, and better happening in divisional than SB, it was a complete one sided game and we had no chance But the days are rolling, and the more and more I feel ... ANGRY. And it gets worse and worse. It shouldn't and I don't know why exactly Perhaps I realized this team has too much holes and/or bad schemes when it counts Perhaps I realized this team is the verge to be the next '90 Dolphins or '05-10 Chargers, and all of this will be put in a bin I realized I never posted that much number of messages since I joined, 2001 (or 2003 ?), something like 10-15 in a 4 days span, which is massive for me What's your take on this and has @HOUSE a psychology degree to help me ?

great so let's try to only focus on offense (, hoping that new offense is 100% a success) then loose the next PO game 33-42 sounds like a fine idea

because everyone thought it was the championship year, and they put everything on veteran shoulders = not giving opportunity for a rookie to mess up it ended vetarans messed up and almost zero experience for rookies it's a failed bet

Reasons for optimism ? huh... being exposed in playoffs by Cincy than KC (again) ? That's all I have, sorry

I'm sorry but it's like saying ok we'll keep John, his office work is meh to trash at important deadlines, but it's a fun guy and always serviceable for COTY : Sirirani has elevated a good team to a great team and elevated a questionnable QB to a top one in the scheme they run Shanahan, despite a rough start : QB1 down, no problem, QB2 down ? no problem. A better version of MacVay + Geoff, great defense Daboll : seems a good motivator AND scheming with his team strengths
