He has never coordinated an offense and his playcalling experience was for a run heavy team. We won't need to hire a DC. Leslie will still be here IMO. Last nights game will look really good on Frazier's resume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 McDermott practices the growth mindset that he preaches to the team. He has improved as well each year as a head coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Bills Fan Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Wait, I just woke up from a coma I’ve been in since last year. I thought we wanted him fired because he’s too conservative and will never win big games? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can coach the Bills to a Super Bowl win; I have no doubt.*** Original god-awful post: Figured out why I feel depressed as a fan currently... Sean McDermott is not good enough. Belichick Tomlin Vrabel Reid Payton Shanahan These are the best coaches in the NFL... They either have next-level smarts or an elite ability to motivate players to perform. McDermott is a solid playoff coach, but not a championship coach, I fear... So Bills fans are like, "We're 8-3! Enjoy it!" But I see a frustrating period of good-but-not-good-enough on the horizon for the foreseeable future. And that's depressing. I am absolutely not of the "Hey, it's Buffalo; at least we're winning" type of mentality. It's championships or nothing. That is the life goal. And with McDermott signing a long-term contract, I almost feel as hopeless as I would if we sucked. If we sucked, at least there would be hope of striking coaching gold on an imminent hire. In this case, though, I feel like we'll just be a solid playoff team for the next many years, but not elite enough to win it all. One of the things that bothered me about this post right from the beginning hat nothing to do with whether McD was a great, good, or even a poor coach. What bothered me was the list of "elite coaches" Kyle Shanahan??? He's had one winning season, other three seasons he's finished in 4th, 3rd, 4th place Think the OP has confused his success as an OC with HC success. Mike Tomlin Personally I've never been all that impressed with him won a SB in his second season likely with much of Cowlers roster, lost another in his 4th season and made it to one other conference championship game. Even with a franchise QB all those seasons, often struggled, last season with Big Ben out he finished 8-8. Once Ben retires unless the Steelers get lucky and somehow find a comparable replacement, I'll be shocked if within 3 seasons he's not fired due to a losing record. Seem to recall him making some dumb moves in games too over the years. Maybe his problem is simply being in the same place too long and has gone stale. Even Sean Peyton, like to see how he does without Drew Brees before calling him truly elite. On the other hand the Detroit Lions even with a very good to elite QB, no coach has been able to win there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locomark Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 McD elevated this year over last. Last year he was overly conservative. This year he allowed us to be more aggressive on offense. I won’t call him elite until we see what happens when he has to make tough decisions in the next 2 games. YES I SAID 2 GAMES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 McD the past 4 years has proven he was a good if not very good regular season coach. 2017 - He overachieves with a team that most likely was a 6-7 win team. Lucks into the playoffs but proves his process and game style works. 2018- He somehow gets 6 wins out of a team boasting a bad ST unit and the second worst offense in the league. 2019- 10 wins (could have been 11 if they didn't rest week 17) and development for Josh. Cements himself as not being a one hit wonder and gets a young team some playoff experience. 2020- 13 wins and a division title and one hail Murray away from a 14th win. Excellent season where the team had some issues early but turned it into full gear the second half of the year. But the questions coming out of the 2020 regular season was can McD win in the playoffs? He won against Indy in a squeaker but he still needed to prove that he can win consistently against elite competition. Against the Ravens his team proved that. Now we can see where this team and Josh stands against elite competition next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We change what we do and who we are. That’s my biggest problem. We get blown out being aggressive I’ll live with that. The evidence is there- being aggressive pays off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
