If McDermott was the Bills coach in the mid-80s, the Bills Super Bowl years never would have happened. His 'team rules' would have ended the Buffalo careers of Smith, Kelly, and Thomas before they began.

McDermott better figure out how to coach difficult personalities or he won't be around long.

Nobody pays to watch 'culture,' or 'the process,' or a 'system.' They pay to watch great players maximize their potential to make great plays to win games.

You can't let the inmates run the asylum. Some say. Do you think these constant screw ups would be tolerated in belichicks

system ?

After the penalties last week, I am very skeptical of McDermott. They say he is hard nosed and won't deal this this type of behavior, but does he really have a track record to show he will deal with this effectively?

He has zero track record as a head coach.

I'll be very interested to see if anything comes out about the team rule he broke. I'm guessing that there's good reason behind it.

Maybe it wasn't a serious violation, it could be that he just felt Dareus needed to have a message sent to him.

 

I like that McDermott is trying to instill some discipline in this team though.

 

He doesn't seem like a total hard ass dick head who's just going to scream and yell at the players for no real reason either. Or a control freak (Marrone type) who's going to set rules that really make no sense (like what color/type of socks to wear).

 

From what I can tell he seems understanding and caring, while at the same time not willing to tolerate nonsense.

He seems to be waking that fine line between players coach and disciplinarian pretty well, from what I've seen/heard anyway.

Still don't know what this rule is . Any enlighteners ?

They haven't said yet. May not although it will likely come out tonight or tomorrow. Chances are high he was late for a meeting. If it was something last night it wouldn't have happened/been learned at 5pm, they would have sent him back earlier today.
