bostonadguy Posted November 4, 2018 Posted November 4, 2018 The biggest problem you have with tearing down a roster and getting rid of good players is that by becoming so non-competitive, the players remaining get comfortable with losing and you breed a losing culture and undermine what you are trying to do in the first place. It seems all they care about is high character guys and not football players. You kind of need both. if McDermott and Beane aren’t careful, they won’t last long enough for the rebuild. 4 1
sullim4 Posted November 4, 2018 Posted November 4, 2018 Bingo. McDermott has lost the locker room and respect of the fans. Even with tens of millions in cap space, who would want to come here? 3

bostonadguy Posted November 4, 2018 Author Posted November 4, 2018 There’s just no excuse getting rid of good players who can accelerate your rebuild. We got our quarterback but we didn’t have to be this bad. 4

Expand Mcd is better than Rex, but what’s the accomplishment of making the playoffs and then regressing massively the next year? I believe Rex was also 9-7 one year? Or 8-8 can’t remember. Either way the chips just fell the Bills way last year. Doesn’t really mean anything to me IMO 1
Helpmenow Posted November 4, 2018 Posted November 4, 2018 Gruden is rebuilding the team you mean tearing it apart.

iinii Posted November 4, 2018 Posted November 4, 2018 I am not of the fan of the process as in terms of the way this rebuild has gone. I ask the question what does this do to the psychology of the players? These men are alphas who have spent their lives pursuing victory. Please don’t try and tell me the defense doesn’t look across the locker room and wonder what are we doing here? 2
Albany,n.y. Posted November 4, 2018 Posted November 4, 2018 The 1985 & 1986 Bills lost a lot, but guys like Talley, Reed, B. Smith hated to lose and were key players on AFC championship teams. One bad year does nothing other than give a team a chance to weed out the bad players. You'll see a totally new group of receivers next year with the possible exception of Zay Jones. You amateur psychiatrists should stick to your day job.

bostonadguy Posted November 4, 2018 Author Posted November 4, 2018 (edited) The biggest test is the coach/GM miscalculated the QB situation which is most important so do they have the ability to rebuild the team the way modern football is played. It feels like they want to build a team for the 2,000’s. Win with Defense and low-risk offense. That’s not th way the game is played anymore. which means this rebuild could end up going for nothing.
