sven233 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 (edited) So I was right all along then. I've been saying it really looked like the coaches would see something work well and then immediately do something else instead of what is having success. The thing is, I was kind of joking, but sadly.......the coaches admit it is true. This really makes me question as the competence of our coaches. To actively stop what is working because they wanted to try something or see something else? That is insanity.

muppy Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 2 hours ago, PBF81 said: Perhaps he felt that our offense wasn't inclusive enough. Maybe some players weren't happy with their roles, and in the interests of positive culture McD decided to try other styles of offenses. Maybe they'll put a tent on the field as a safe space for any player(s) that aren't happy with their roles during games. That could help. And for the players on D for which it's too much trying to play more due to a couple of injuries there, maybe a tent on-field with comfort dogs or something too. We could put snap counters on players, and once their forced over a certain percentage of snaps, into the comfort animal tent they go for treatment. It's so exciting to see where this goes!! Either way, it's good to see that our Head Coach was on top of things and made sure to abandon things that were working so that we could be inclusive to the feelings of other inanimate styles. There's no denying the fantastic culture he's built here. this post broke my snark meter 🤭 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got it. 🙄 No, I dont necessarily trust Pegula to nail it. But I think he has a better shot of making a decent hire by taking the advice of both the consulting firm he used to find McDermott, AND having Beane involved in the search, than McD has in guiding this team to a Super Bowl victory.

Yes, there's always a risk of getting worse. But what are you afraid of losing here? There's more than just a "risk" of getting worse. The Bills best chance of maintaining success is probably to minimize the amount of involvement that Pegula has with the football (or hockey) side of operations. McDermott is a solid coach who is respected by his players and his peers. Letting Terry pick another coach to replace that is a potential nightmare in the offing. The only thing the Bills should do in regard to McDermott is hire a real DC for next year so he's not walking around with so many hats on at once. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
