Kneeling 🧎‍♀️it down with 20 seconds left, one of the best QBs in thr league, and one TO

[ILBillsfan]

Should of had two timeouts w 20s but he wanted to call the timeout 4th down kicker coming out to kick not even the call timeout right before the snap

 

bad job at the end of the game again by McDermott

That's McD's burner account

Posted immediately as the game ended. 

 

Complain about the ot defensive calling im on board.  Complain about blowing another lead im on board.  Hell complain about the bad luck of the kicker missing 2 fgs and theirs making a 60 yarder im definitely on board.

 

Nitpick this of all things and post it right as the game ends? I'm not on board.  Simple as that.  This was not the reason they lost this is just picking one minor thing to B word about.

[Yobogoya!]

That was shameful. 
 

Does a mistake there lose the game? Maybe. 
 

Does a mistake in overtime lose the game? Again, maybe. 
 

The difference is if you kick there and make it the eagles don’t get a chance to respond. Unreal.

I think it was a gutless decision.  Throw a couple quick outs and if doesn't work, then kneel all the ball.  Ty[pical McDermott - comes up small in the biggest moments. He plays not to lose - you have Josh F*cking Allen. play to win the GD f*cking game

Maybe if the QB has given the coach any confidence that he wouldnt throw the ball to the other team or the kicker had shown that he can kick a long field goal the coach would have went for it.   If Allen throws a int and loses the game everyone is on McDermott for going for it.

Lmao Allen had over 400 yards of offense and 4tds...what are you talking about?

[Ramza86]

We should have had two timeouts...but McDermott plays like a goddam coward and never once thought 20 seconds and two timeouts was an option for us.

 

He is the worst timeout user I have ever followed

 

[Allen2Moulds]

Things that I have little faith in.

 

1. McD Defense making a stop at the end of a game.

 

2. Being aggressive at the end of a game.

 

3. Gabe Davis making the correct read on an option route.

And if it is intercepted then this thread has a different title and the coach is called a moron. 

 

 

And if we get two chunk plays we’re in FG range with a chance to win.

I think part of it has to do with your screen name. Don’t love playing hero ball in the pouring rain.  I was fine with playing for OT. 
 

That said, I would have gone for it on 4th down in OT. That was the time to win the game.

I agree.  Bills should have went for it on 4th and 7 in OT, instead of kicking the FG.  No way we were stopping Philly when they got the ball.  The D was gassed.  Put the ball in your best players hands.  Thats #17.  McDermott is gutless.  He is the reason we are 6-6.  He coaches scared..  Looks scared out there.

He leads the league in Interceptions.  Hes thrown at least one in 8 straight games.   Hes a great quarterback but if you think anyone should be confident he wont throw the ball to the other team you're wrong.

Agreed. You don’t have to be a fortune teller to know that neither defense was getting a stop. Very similar to the KC-  13 second game.  Let your QB win.

McDermott is a coward. He's literally used several different scapegoat coaches to cover up his 7 years of failing. He might make a good start up administrator for an NFL club, but you never want him within 100 yards of an NFL sideline.  Today he showed no emotion when one bad call after another went against his team.  I'm thru with his stupidity.

Some of those interceptions are misleading. He has several on Hail Mary type throws, and several on receiver drops.

That said, he's throwing to those same wide outs.   He's earned the picks.  Again, wouldnt trade the guy for the world but he has earned every pick he has thrown.

You know what else he leads the league in? Scoring touchdowns and before McDermott slowed the offense down allen also was one of the best in comeback wins and 4th quarter wins....what has McDermott done for this team that is even close to what allen does for this team? We can find ten more McDermott in 1 off-season bet we couldn't find another allen in a decade

You don't force anything, but if you get a couple of 20 yd plays a FG might win it. It was a cowardly move when OT is at best a crapshoot.

[JROC INTEL]

Ok so it’s like this. It’s an apple from the same tree. The Tree is mcD. It wasn’t his worst game, but he’s still the apple tree producing bad apples. He had had zero emotion on the sidelines. The team is not prepared or disciplined. The personnel choices are border line mind boggling. Firing the OC took about 5 games too long. It’s not a coincidence we are always in these situations. It’s not bad luck. We should have stretched this lead in the first half. 
 

oh and you cannot forgot his challenge record and god awful timeout usage. I mean this is the tip of the iceberg list

Edited November 27, 2023 by JROC INTEL

[Baba Booey]

It’s a fireable offense!! Especially when your the coach that gave up the 13 second game. Guy needs to go! Now!!

[Rocbillsfan1]

There is such a bad stench coming from this organization since 13 seconds. Way too many bad calls by McDermott since then. He has to go. Go get Harbaugh. This team needs a complete psychological change and that starts with getting rid of McDermott. He can’t get the job done. 

[DapperCam]

McDermott coaches not to lose. Leads to a lot of losing unfortunately.

This isn’t the 1990’s. Just last year the Bills got into FG range with 23 seconds left to beat the Lions. 
 

In today’s NFL offenses can easily get a FG with less than 30 seconds. 
 

This Bills are freaking 0-3 taking leads with less than 2 minutes to go. That would never have been a thing 20-30 years ago the way the game was played.

He's still petrified of Tyreek Hill.  Thinks he is on every team now.  That one td in the playoff game caused this.

almost comical… in fact it would be, if not for the fact thay we’re always, somehow, some way, the schlomozle in these scenarios.

[Wizard]

I don't like the call, but I understand it. Allen has had a few games (at least before halftime) where he has thrown an INT that turned into points.

 

A fumble or INT is probably more likely given that Allen is at his best in those 12-25 yard passes. Anything over 25 yards on deep passes is not his strength.

[mjt328]

It was totally gutless.

 

Tony Romo said we could have gotten "strip-sacked" in that situation.

We could also have gotten "strip-sacked" when we got the ball in overtime.

 

With 20 seconds and a timeout, we could have easily gotten into field goal range.  The Chiefs did it to us in 13 seconds without one.

Of course this is correct.

 

THE REALITY:  McDermott has more fear that he will lose the game in that situation on a turnover, than he has confidence/desire to go down the field and take the game.

Until Allen forces a pick and we all scream for not playing for overtime when “we dominated the entire game”

[BillMafia716ix]

I agreed with the decision honestly. After that BAD interception Josh threw to give Philly the lead. He simply just couldn’t risk it. He took his chances in OT.
