McDermott Hot Seat?

The way this offense can go from running like a sports car to a dump truck in 7 days is baffling.  At some point the roller coaster needs to stop.  We have all seen how great this team can be.  We only get so many chances with Allen at the helm.  Beane has to be at least pondering the idea of coaching being the issue.  Also is there an issue with this teams conditioning?  Lots of injuries the past 2-3 years. 

Moron.  Nuff said.

I think the bigger problem is some of our defensive players are aging. At some point the Buffalo Bills are going to have to find replacements for Micah Hyde and Jordan Poyer there both 32 years old. Von Miller looks like his better days in the NFL are behind him. This team reminds me of the Chuck Knox Buffalo Bills teams he had a lot of veterans with some success then when he left the wheels really came off. Terry Pegula bigger issue than the GM and head coach to potentially deal with is convincing Josh Allen to stick around for a Buffalo Bills rebuild. I don’t think Josh Allen is going to wait around for a rebuild so yes there is potential problems for this present Buffalo Bills roster down the road. If you’re Josh Allen you’re not sticking around on a 7-10 football team. Stefon Diggs will be long gone he looks like he wants out of Buffalo now. So it really doesn’t matter about the coach he will be fired at some point. Coaches get hired to be fired. We will see all these Sean McDermott Buffalo Bills supporters when they have some 7-10 records for the Buffalo Bills if they are so loyal to McDermott and GM Brandon Beane. Buffalo Super Fan are you saying to fire them? Yes if the Buffalo Bills begin to lose no head coach has a job forever that is ridiculous. Sean McDermott is winning because of Josh Allen just like Tom Brady in New England. Sean McDermott is a average coach at best. Put Sean McDermott in New England Patriots or the New York Jets and see how well he does. I doubt he wins in those places in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo 

 

 

McDermott isn't winning only because of Allen. Not even close. Allen wasn't Allen his first year when they made the playoffs. They won more games than the roster 

 

McDermott is a terrific coach, and the idea that they will have to rebuild to replace the aging defensive backfield is utterly ridiculous. That will be a reload, not a rebuild.

 

Would he be winning this many games without Allen? Hell, no, but no teams are consistently excellent without a really good QB. That's just the way it goes. Look at the Ravens. The year before they won the SB with Dilfer they were 8-8. Two years later, 7-9. Allen is the crucial piece, but this is a great roster playing really well very consistently. McDermott is a very very good coach.

Not even close, defense has been dominant, even with injuries. The offense needs more consistency but they are good enough to dominate as well. McDermott just signed a huge extension, hes not going anywhere.

I look at the last game last year, the first game this year, the $#!+ show in London and I wonder what the heck is going on? How can a team look so good one week and then this happens. Somebody will be held accountable sooner or later.

Many here do not want to admit it, but right now the Bills are not an elite team.  The Chiefs, Niners and Eagles simply do not have games like yesterday and on opening night.  The Bills are in the next group of teams (Dallas, Ravens, Miami, Seahawks), teams that can look really good (dominant even) some weeks, but cant sustain it against good teams.  These teams will make the playoffs and win a playoff game, but they are not beating one of the elite teams in the playoffs. 

 

Unfortunately, that’s where we’re at and it won’t change until there are changes at the top.  We’ve maxed out with the McDermott/Dorsey regime.  But because so many people inside and out of the organization are satisfied with the team’s current status, the necessary change is unlikely to happen.

My only knock was not getting players across the pond earlier... anyone who has travel from west to east knows it can take 3-4 days to adjust... we just flew back from visiting my Dad and you know took 3 days to feel normal.

You know who might be on the hot seat. Bill. Back-to-back blowout losses including getting shut out 34-0. I wouldn't be surprised if Mac Jones isn't the starter next week. Second straight week he was benched. As for McDermott his seat is not hot, and neither is Beane's.

[nucci]

Last week we were going to the Superbowl and some were worried we would lose Dorsey. Now everyone needs to be fired and traded. Good thing no overreaction here.

To the OP, I see you haven’t posted much in your time here. Let’s keep it that way.

The chiefs struggled with the jaguars, and relied on a picked up flag to beat the vikings

 

take a walk with this noise.

 

also, watch some eagles games, will you?

To be fair the Pats don't have a good team. Jones is terrible. And they lost Judon. I think Bill would win a Super Bowl if he was coaching the Bills.

Still a lot of season left but SF looks like they are the best team in football. That team is loaded on both sides of the ball. Watching them kick the Cowboys ass last night was fun.

Note, I didn't include the 9ers.

 

They're excellent, and look pretty unstoppable.

Changes at the top aren’t the solution for what happened against the Jets and Jaguars.

You should at least look at those teams opponents before claiming how amazing these teams are. The one playoff caliber team the Chiefs played they lost to. The Eagles barely beat a team the Bills beat by 30. 49ers looked good last night, but that’s their first quality opponent win. If yesterday’s game had been played in Orchard Park do you think the same result would’ve happened?

The Chiefs beat Jacksonville on the road.  Philly is 5-0.  WTH are you talking about?

The Chiefs beat the Jags, the team we just got embarrassed by, on the road.  The Eagles are 5-0 and went to the Super Bowl last year.  Two of the Bills’ three wins are against absolute tomato cans and they lost to Zack Wilson.  The Bills are a second tier team.

It’s more than just those two games…it goes back to last year too.  What do you think is the solution?

Did you see that Chiefs/Jags game? They couldn't score, either.

 

Have you watched Philly's games? They're far from dominant.

 

Also, a five point loss isn't something to feel shame about ffs.

Oh yeah... and there's a better option sitting on his azz unemployed at home, just waiting to step in. Because as you all know, NFL caliber Head Coaches are a dime a dozen and at any given moment you have your choice of several good ones.

This place can be a clown show after a loss. To think that some people want to fire the guy who's dragged us out of two decades of miserable football and made our team actually relevant is astonishing. Who do they want? Kyle Shanahan? That ain't happening

Jacksonville isn't a bad team. Many have them winning their division. They had a big advantage being in London for 2 weeks while the Bills only arrived a couple of days before the game. Buffalo was never going 16-1. They will lose some more games. The Jets built their team that matches up well with Buffalo. Look at the last 3 games vs them as they were all one score games. The injuries are a concern, but the Bills should win enough games to get into the playoffs.
