cDAVIS Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Anybody who wanted him gone is insane in my opinion. They also must have short term memory and have issues remembering the past and how bad it was. Hell, even in our glory days we couldn't bring home a ring. I love McD and Beane and I honestly believe there will be a statue of him clapping outside our new stadium when its built. 9 6 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Barbarian Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 I have supported McDermott from the get go ( and even wrote him a letter his second year telling him to keep the course) and definitely dont want him gone now. I do feel however he reverted back to some of his conservatives ways which cost us some games. But starting from the second half of the Tampa game he has become more aggressive and it really showed against the patriots. If he is going to bring Buffalo a Superbowl he is going to have maintain this aggressive approach. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not Dabolls fault if his players don't always execute or if he doesn't have the personel to run a more balanced offense. Guy called an absolutely beautiful game against the Pats without a single punt. I don't think he's the problem. We throw because we HAVE to throw it. I'm not ready to can a guy who just got us to the AFCC last year and most likely the playoffs this year too. No, he should should not be on the hot seat. 1 hour ago, JohnNord said: There’s a post titled “The McDermott Era Should End” that was quite popular for a few weeks Only the morons wanted McD canned.

Coached the Raiders for 10 seasons and never had a losing record. Made the playoffs 8 times. They played in the AFC Championship game 7 freaking times in 10 years. While losing 6 championship games, they won the Super Bowl in their lone appearance. Madden's only playoff loss outside of a Conference championship came against the Steelers on Franco Harris's Immaculate reception. That's one hell of a career.

Are you ***** insane? Most people don't want the coordinators gone and understand that it's up to players to execute the plays properly when put in position to do so. Okay you want to do the stats thingy? We’ve played 2 teams with top 10 offenses and 10 in the bottom 10. If we’re not ranked #1 based on quality of the teams we’ve played I’d be even more frustrated. On offense we’ve played 6 of the bottom 10 teams and 3 of the top 10. Our opponents have been awful this year. Take away the blowout wins against 3rd string QB teams like the Texans and WFT and replace with our average stats from the other games, we don’t look so good. Until last week we’ve had zero running game, zero pass rush, and awful oline play. We allow 30+ yard runs nearly every game and our red zone efficiency is 53% on TDs good for 22nd in the league and down 9% from last season. This team is loaded with talent on both sides of the ball and has benefited from having a cake walk schedule. Hopefully we can continue to look as good on offense as we did against the Pats on Sunday because the vanilla bend but don’t break D has allowed teams to rack up plenty of second half points. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a big difference between getting mad at him for game day decisions and wanting him gone.

Has nobody been paying attention to the Sabres. This franchise is capable of being historically bad under this ownership. Maybe McD is a perennial 10-7 coach from here on out. Maybe we never go to a Super Bowl. Maybe we never win another playoff game. All of that is better than what the Pegulas have done with the Sabres over the last decade. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
