Yeah, he did. He had no quarterback, for starters. No running back, no receivers, no recognizable names other than Urlacher. Look back at that season. They won a ton of close games, a few in OT. They 5 and 11 the season before and 4 and 12 the year after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domdab99 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Now he's defending Jauron as a good coach. I can't even... I'm out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just started looking at the standings, and what the networks have been showing apparently is wrong. Right now the Bills apparently are in the #6 spot, so they have the tie-breakers on the Ravens and the Chargers. Head to head, which they obviously lose to the Chargers, doesn't count in a 3-way tie. Chargers lose out because their conference win-loss is worse than Bills and Ravens. That might not hold after three more weeks. When I step back and look at all this, I find it all very weird. We've all watched the Bills this season, and as exciting as the first several weeks were, I don't there are many Bills fans who think the Bills are a good team today. Maybe they're better than we think - maybe their defense is back to being good (three good games in a row - Chiefs, Pats and Colts), but I'm not feeling it. And yet here we are about how legitimate a shot they have at the playoffs. Playoffs? This team? In disarray at the most important position, no receivers, mediocre to horrible pass protection. Playoffs? Ya I agree with that. Before the year I thought they were a 5 win team. Somehow they find themselves right in the middle of a playoff race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad he couldn't have done it without us. I think they won a couple of overtime games and several other close games. And I think he got a lot of coach of the year votes. They won about 4 to 6 games a season for about 5 years before that year and they went in the tank immediately after. His one good year was a combination of good coaching of below-par talent (that's what he was good at) and a lot of luck. Bills got those 7-9 seasons out of him for three years, and every year I thought his teams outperformed their talent. As I said, he never got a chance to show anyone if he would get away from his ultra-conservatism if he had good talent, because he never coached a team with good talent.

transplantbillsfan Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 So has this been solved, yet? Everyone accepts that McDermott was an idiot for wasting a timeout at least, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
