McDermott Hot Seat?


Mark92

Recommended Posts

The McDermott/Dorsey, high flying Bills who win games by 4 TDs are back to their old ways of not being able to win the close ones. That’s my main problem with McD. Win the close games, the team should be able to do that.  KC wins so many one possession games.

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.

Made myself watch the presser, of McDermott crying, and saying he didn’t bring the energy.  Looks like Doug Pederson brings more energy to a game then Sean does.  We’re getting to see the impacts of a mundane stat padding Coach and an elite Super Bowl winning Coach.  After thirteen seconds we stuck with stat padding and I think that’s the story of McDermott’s career.  Fine for the season though with injuries becoming a strong “if” and largely unimpressive, unfocused, and uninspired in the post season.

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.

 

 

The Bills were soundly beaten despite getting two huge turnovers.  It was a pathetic performance by the offense.

McDermott admitted he doesn’t bring and cannot bring the energies of someone like Doug Pederson.  Should’ve been canned after thirteen seconds but alas he’s a post turtle.

OP makes a short but reasonable statement given the loss.

 

majority of the responses are trite retorts that lack little substance because it's hard to debate people with opinion. every year this place becomes like twitter more and more.

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. 

I agree with everything you said.  This is a playoff team, that will exit relatively early in the playoffs when they have to play a really good defense or another elite QB.

"soundly beaten"

 

I think we're speaking two different languages.

 

 

the bills did not have a chance in the game. they were beaten in every way possible. if the bills did pull off that win yesterday it was not the bills winning as much as it was the jags losing.

 

the jags did anything they wanted to us on defense, stopped us on defense when we could not do anything, and even special teams was beaten.

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 

all of this is compounded by our specifically schemed defense which is not an easy plug and play unit. it is niche and nuanced which needs specific type players.

Largely it’s McDermott who cannot bring energy, excel, and keep his players excited.  That somber presser of not being able to bring the energy.  He’s a stat padding Coach who’s unbelievably mediocre when it matters most.  It’s almost like he’s saying he’s quitting on players when it matters most and cannot elevate them.

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


Having players stay healthy?

 

I mean, you make it sound like winning a Super Bowl is just a given. The Bills are, or at least were 24 hours ago, looked upon as a top team in the league.

every team has injuries. across the league. people who follow this team and post on the message board tend to be hyperbolic but we are not the only team to suffer injuries.

They should have won today too. But they didn’t. They should win against the Jets too. But they didn’t. 

If you thought the bills should have won today given the circumstances and going against a pretty descent team, I think you had your expectations in the wrong place. Respectfully

The Bills have probably been healthier than the league average, going back to the beginning of last year.
