They are 30th in points Well they'd probably be 32nd without them. Dude, he's a coach, not a miracle worker. What do you expect? This roster is trash. Yes, even before all of the trades.

I would rather him come out and say something like... "our last 3 performances were awful and that starts with me as a coach. We are still alive and we are Right in the hunt and we will do everything we can to get back to the way we know how to play". Not sound like a phony optimist. I'm pretty sure a player would rather hear the coach say something like I mentioned above instead of pretending like everything is ok. I don't think the players buy that for one second I don't see.that there's much different between that and what he's said. He's said "that's not the way we want to play." You said "We played bad." What's the diff? He hasn't pretended everything is okay. He's said they have a lot to fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills on offence are ranked 27th in yards, would probably be closer to 32 if it wasn't for garbage time stats the last 3 games Bills on defence are 25th in yards and 30th points. The sad part is this guy is supposed to be a defensive coach. Hyde and White are good, but if they are 30th in points, what good is that? Got to look at the big picture. They have sooo many holes on that defence The Bills also have virtually no young talent on their team with the exception of Tre White. So once again, what exactly has Mcd done? They have regressed big time on both sides on the ball and they probably have the worst young talent in the NFL But he's done a god job so far, right? What good has that done though? They are 30th in points God, that's a brutal recitation. The Bills may be the worst team in the league, and may not even be close.

And I've been waiting for someone to say this for the past several weeks: Anyone know who's leading the league in tackles? Right. Zach Brown. Brown. Dareus. Darby. Gilmore.

SaviorPeterman Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 The good old 'In the hunt' graphic, wouldn't be Thanksgiving in Buffalo without being mathematically alive for a playoff birth we all know isn't coming. Sad thing is this team could lose the next 3 straight and will still be 'in the hunt' because of how pathetic the AFC is this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also led the team to a 5-2 start, during which your negativity was strangely absent. If you're a Bills enthusiast you would have known Gilmore was going to be gone regardless. The team wasn't going to pay him what he wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What media was? Are there any facts you can actually point to? You were wrong on point a and try to deflect with this. This all has nothing to do with McDermott. Whether it's releasing Gilmore or your interpretation of the media's reaction. 11 minutes ago, hondo in seattle said: You can think and say what you want.

He is making reasonable judgments from the pressers. He said he had an ego and was full of it. He didn't call him a horrible person based upon the pressers.

Really shake things up. Switch the offense with the defense, fake punts on first down, lots and lots of flea flickers. Lets get weird!!!! I think it was Shaw66 who suggested we give all the D smartphones and let them wander around texting - they might have better odds of running into ball carriers that way 3 hours ago, billsfan11 said: You are happy with Mcd so far? Name one good thing he has done so far. And trading away good players for mid to late round picks would not be considered good in my books Isn't the GM Mr Beane supposed to be in charge of these moves?

BadLandsMeanie Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 At the risk of being annoying, for some reason this song came to mind. Ah, let's go to the huntLet's go to the hunt, (oh baby)Let's go to the hunt, (oh baby)Let's go to the huntCome on, let's go to the hunt Then I am picturing McD and Beane and the coaches singing this to get the players psyched up. Maybe it won't work so well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 I knew this would happen, which is why Peterman should have started from the beginning. Peterman would have sailed or failed and know we are not in a good position to draft a QB. 5 hours ago, wppete said: McDermott talks a lot of nonesense. He is full of himself. Ego is massive. You literally have no idea what you're talking about. McDermott is not ego driven he just doesn't want to tell us what's going on like most coaches. Just listening to him talk you can see he not an arrogant grandiose coach like Rex was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
