Rigotz Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Prior to Sunday's game, Leslie Frazier had a small chance to become a head coach. That would have netted us two third round picks due to the Rooney rule. He's not worth that. After the 13 second debacle, I think that chance has slipped down to 0%. So, I'm curious what you all think about this idea... If McDermott states in his next press conference that it was his decision to play conservative in the last 2 minutes (or even 13 seconds) ... does that salvage some of Frazier's marketability? Even if it creates a 1% chance, it's good for the organization and he should jump on the grenade. 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only chance there is if there is a franchise Quarterback comes out next year. So a team who fired there coach needs that Qb so they need a fall guy to get them to go 0-18 or 17 whatever the NFL extends the season to. So who better then to fill that role then Lesile Frazier, hell he can blame the media and ownership for his teams debacle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

y2zipper Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 McDermott isn't going to say this, but the pre-snap line up on the plate I got the Chiefs into field goal range doesn't matter because it's a coverage disguise. The play was two deep disguised as a shell. Pre-snap it is supposed to look like the middle of the field is wide open but then postnap the quarters are supposed to play inside of forced the receivers to the outside so the pre-snap read and the post-snap read don't match. The corner there is supposed to play inside leverage to force Kelce to break to the outside where there is safety help but instead the corner played the outside and Kelce got to the middle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerome007 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Because McD is sooooo involved in the defense, losing Frazier has less impact and may indeed have some benefits, picks being one of them. Daboll would be a huge change though. Anyhow, to me, if they stay, fine. If not, part of the game. The Bills will move on. Josh seems a leader enough to voice his opinions if a new OC is hired, and has learned 95% of what he could learn from Daboll, which makes it not that dire either. For all their failings, you don't get such stats as this year with bad coordinators! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Sack Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Frazier is a good coach. If we lose him there is a learning curve for the new guy, unless he has prior DC experience and is respected and trusted by the players. The Bills shouldn’t be throwing anyone under the bus.

RyanC883 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 (edited) Frazier needs to go, period. The D was way too soft and predictable all game long, really, all season long, and last year also. Bend and don't break is great against the Mac Jones, Jets, Falcons, etc. We faced 2 elite QB all season long. We went 1-2. We got shredded by Brady in the 1st half of the Tampa game, then lost in OT. We beat Mahomes in the regular season when he was adjusting to new coverage looks from D's, and lost in the Playoffs (again), after he figured out the defense we and others used against him, yet we used the same D against him as in the regular season that he clearly figured out by that time. Next year we face several elite QBs. We need a better DC. Not pressing at the LOS on Kelcie and Hill w/ 13 seconds left is horrid. 46 minutes ago, Dr.Sack said: Frazier is a good coach.

It was a cupcake fest. And lets not forget his inability to stop the Colts. They scored 45 points on this D running the ball all game. Frazier is bad. Timid, bad, and does not understand that his scheme does not work with our personnel. If we had a guy like TJ Watt it may work, but it does not work with average front 7. It's putting a TON OF pressure on the secondary, which held up really well all year. Edited January 25, 2022 by RyanC883 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBill Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 You guys are nuts. No way do the Bills act this far out of character. Additionally, McDermott, Frazier and Dabol are staying in Buffalo unless and only if Dabol or Frazier are offered HC opportunities elsewhere. The Pegula’s have publicly mentioned the value of continuity. With that said, the Bills will take a hard look at roster and schemes, especially on the defensive side of the ball. It may be very likely that they bring in some different assistant coaches and maybe even a “consultant” of some sort to help with the D. (Yes the #1 D). Three glaring issues on the Defensive side to fix: - Get home pass rush that results in sacks - softness against the run - Too much reliance on soft coverage I’m curious to see what the offseason brings. I really believe the Bills will be even better next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimately it is his responsibility. He chooses his staff, he chooses how involved to be in scheme, preparation and play calling - and in what situations to do so. Ditto for personnel on the roster (along with Beane, whom he chose) and on the field. McDermott should be first and foremost where responsibility is concerned, be it good or bad.

Sunday's game however felt like a containment issue rather than Mahomes being squirmy. We would get guys up the middle, but then there is no DE to keep him in side. Or the left side would win their battle and the right side would be nothing but green grass. Really frustrating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No team hiring a retread like Frazier after Sunday, Frazier is just a puppet for Sean and his conservative coaching ways. Remember Sean got fire by Andy Reid because he could not carry on how Jim Johnson coached and called defensive plays. Johnson was an attacking/blitzing style DC cordinator and Sean wants to be conservative and keep everything in front. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magox Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Ridiculous - Leslie Frazier has had top 5 and top 10 defenses for 4 out of the last 5 years, without any real superstars. Yes, they got burnt by the Chiefs, but who hasn't? The Chiefs have a great offense and they are playing on all cylinders right now. I think many of these teams that are looking for coaches would love to have a top 5 - top 10 defense. That's not to say that he should be a head coach, but he has been a very good defensive coordinators for the Bills. It's easy to say "fire him" which is ridiculous, to replace him with someone better that shares McD's philosophy would be difficult. If you've paid attention to this organization in how they operate from the Pegulas, to Beane to McD they all preach continuity. This team most likely will look to hire from within to elevate to the position and hopefully the person they elevate will be someone who can add a wrinkle or two to the defense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Livinginthepast Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 What I would like to know is what was different in our defense Sunday compared to when we beat them earlier in the season. Is Trey White's presence the only thing? Did we play the same style of defense and just had more luck and made a couple of more plays in the previous game or did we tinker with what worked? I dont really remember enough about what we did the first time to know. If it was different on Sunday then why? If it wasnt different then why was it mostly ineffective?

I’ve seen him overrule a blitz call in Arizona before the Hail Murray. He does the same conservative thing. He’s very stubborn. I was at the Houston game and I knew we were gonna give it up at the end because he has a pattern Being too conservative and put the players way back. It seems like they’re stuck in a spot and told to stay there. I’ve seen it games that are one scores game. I was at the Houston Bills game the year before and Jerry Hughes came off the field yelling why can’t we blitz. Frazier has said that coach McDermott doesn’t like to blitz.

jkeerie Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Frazier, I believe, wanted the Chicago job. It looks like Ryan Pole from KC will be hired as their next GM. I don't believe Frazier is under consideration by the Bears for HC. I believe second interviews are Quinn and Caldwell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billzgobowlin Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 There is a very real chance that playcalling wasn't the issue and execution was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think the same. From what I have seen and heard, it seems the only place that really had any traction was Chicago in terms of interest in Frazier. And now it seems the GM they are bringing has his eyes set on those other 2 like you mentioned. I would like to see a change at DC personally, but if Frazier doesn't get the HC offers, I assume he is going to be back unfortunately. I want to see what another DC can do with Edmunds this year as well. We have some decisions to make, and I think a lot of the issues with Edmunds could be tied to how he is used. I would like to see him used in a more aggressive role, the way Parsons is used in Dallas, and see how he responds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
