Punching Bag Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Of course not, you tear it down go back to mediocre football for 10 years hoping the right players, coaches in front office are hired at same time. Maybe even move if domed stadium with glass roof and removing grass fields cannot be built on locals dime. /S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuvian Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 this is an organization that went to the playoffs with Tyrod Taylor at QB so that's a strong yes. It will be interesting to see for how long Josh is the unchallenged starter and how long he is given to win the job as a legacy QB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Boo Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Depends on how the scenario plays out. If it's clear that Allen isn't working out, I expect Beane to recognize it and act accordingly. A situation where Beane/McDermott hold on to "the dream" for too long, would make me want a new GM and/or coach. Take Ryan Pace, for example. He will soon be approaching this territory with Trubisky. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought about it quite a bit because I think there's a real 40/60 shot at this scenario.(sorry if that offend's anyone's sensitivities). My opinion is the above. If they were to pull the plug at the appropriate time, YES. This combo has gotten the Bills to the playoffs twice in 3 seasons after 17 years of nothing. IF, IF Allen doesn't progress, I would absolutely give them one more shot at it. Edited March 22, 2020 by LSHMEAB 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLTbills Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 As of right now, yes. Shouldn’t even be a discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poleshifter Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Yes, keep Beane and McDermott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike in Horseheads Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Bills make the playoffs in 2/3 years after 50,000 years. Allen comes in and has done wonders with what he had to work with and won some games on his own. But yet we have another thread should we get rid of everybody just amazing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their offense has been lackluster to this point.... another season of that and a .500 or so season and there will be a different tone around here. It means that comment was in response to someone saying quote some defensive/special teams touchdowns have inflated these (pts per game under McDermott) end quote.

IF, IF Allen doesn't progress, I would absolutely give them one more shot at it. This is my view. As long as they realize their mistake with Allen and do something about it, then I'm good with them. If they keep holding on to a sub-par QB just because he was a #1 pick and is still on a rookie contract without coming up with a "Plan B", then they need to go. 8 hours ago, Mike in Horseheads said: Bills make the playoffs in 2/3 years after 50,000 years.

This thread isn't about whether Allen is likely to succeed or fail. It's about how fans would feel about Beane and McDermott if Allen were to fail -- and it's certainly not an unrealistic or a pessimistic question. Look at Chicago. In 2018, the Bears went 12-4 with Mitch Trubisky looking good -- better than Allen looked in his second season -- but Trubisky failed to continue to improve in his third year and actually regressed (probably because DCs have "figured him out"), and the Bears went down the toilet. This year the Bears traded for Nick Foles rather than leaving all their eggs in the basket with Trubisky. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsfanAZ Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Allen may never be elite but he definitely is not a bust. Even if he is average to above average the Bills can build a good team around him and still be a contender. I would sign McBeane to an extension now.

Dick Jauron and Ryan Fitzpatrick love this idea! you think there is going to some bidding war for Beane after the season? Has that ever happened? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
