From there you don't even want to know what I think happens in prison. Rough times ahead for McD after we make the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren't the first team to be up against the cap. I also don't think we have a franchise QB now. I just don't see it the same way as others and that's fair. Nope. But every situation is different. Hence, my complaint about sweeping generalizations. I don't know if JA is a franchise QB, but I do know he is progressing and showing really promising signs. I also know he was never going to be a day 1 franchise qb, and so an immediate rebuild was never going to happen. For our situation, we are right on track.

This isn't just one bad game, they have been like this all year, but they were playing bad teams and getting really lucky that those games ended up as wins. The defense has played well all year. They got handled yesterday. Allen has played well in fourth quarters, but needs to be more consistent. Are there issues? Sure. My first question is why Singletary doesn't see the field in the first half. My second question is what happened to the short passing game that was working well. But to take one bad game yesterday and inflate it into some crap about how they won't win another game and the coach will get fired is just ridiculous and wishful thinking by a guy around here that gnaws on this like some puppy with a chew toy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a huge fan of McD, but he is going nowhere. Like him as a coach but 5-11, 6-10 he's getting the can. So some extreme examples of losing out could mean he's gone.

Mark80 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 (edited) Bill Belichick didn't with the SB until his 7th season as a head coach. This includes going 5-11 in his first season as Pats coach the season before he won his first. Maybe, just maybe, we give the guy that got us to the playoffs with a horrible roster and will most likely get to the playoffs again this year for 2 out of 3 years, a bit of some slack, no?

Just pointing out good teams get blown out too. It was a 4 point game mid Q3. Needed a stop and score. Really 4 items swung the game. Josh’s fumble around the 25, the very uncharacteristic long run allowed on D, and Wentz’s first down runs on third and long to keep a drive going. This game wasnt a blowout until the defense became a doormat in late Q3 and Q4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DNA is from parents. McD and Beane have different DNA than , say, Buster Ramsey and Harvey Johnson, or any other former HC and GM you'd care to name.

The NFL has changed a wee bit since 2001 when BB won his first SB. The passing game, defense, special teams, everything evolves over time. The world doesn't stand still. Now, teams like Philadelphia are winning SB's in their second year under a new HC. Or, LA who made the SB in their coaches 2nd year. Or, KC with a redshirt freshman QB making the AFC Championship. Or, Seattle with a 3rd year QB winning a SB. Winning doesn't take a 4-5 year plan in the modern NFL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Moose Johnson said yesterday that only about 5% of throws, if that, are the long throws. Allen has struggled with them but I don't think 1 in 20 throw is affecting the offense that much. I am mystified by two things: 1. Not using Singletary earlier in games 2. Seemingly abandoning the shorter route trees, crossing patterns, using Beasley as the possession guy, etc. That was working early in the year, and we've gotten away from it.

If this season goes like seasons in the past of collapsing down the stretch after a 5-1 now 5-2 start does McD survive? With all the talk of the DNA and Standards and Process you you think McD survives a Bills collapse? BTW add another Blowout loss to the McD resume.

Why is Lee still given the opportunity to turn out penalties? I am not surprised at the Singletary touches. He had 10 touches total, the first two games of the season. 10 touches after coming back from injury over 2 games. I think Singelary is a good change of pace back not a workhorse. Sort of a combination between Spiller and McCoy. This issue isn't that DS is not getting touches, the issue is we don't have a great stable of backs or a feature back like Shady.
