Not a top offense but has done enough with turning around Geno Smith’s career to want me to see what he could do with Allen. Also comes from the Sean McVay tree. The biggest thing though is they need a smart leader. I don’t need just an OC at head coach. They have to be able to lead the entire team. What is the defensive philosophy? Who are DC candidates? It all matters. I’m not just looking for the top ranked offenses. Wes Phillips is another guy I would definitely talk to. He could be great. He could be a dud. All I know is the Bills in their history never improved on the coach they replaced. It's an awful streak. Only Levi-to-Wade Phillips went from one playoff coach to another. The rest were all steps backwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niagara Dude Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 17 minutes ago, Coach Tuesday said: Sean Mcdermott is 0-6 in overtime despite having one of the best QBs on the planet. I’d fire him as soon as the season ends. It’s over. You would think with an OT record like that they would he would be far more aggressive, the kneel down with 20 secs left should everyone they learned nothing from 13 secs. Played not to lose , his defence was pathetic with very soft zones 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any top candidate would be interested to coach here now. 15 years ago years ago, Mike Shanahan didn't want to coach here. If it were today and these circumstances, he would accept now.

drummernut74 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 (edited) Kim Pegula also said that the Sabres fans didn't know what they were talking about when it came to Jason Botterrill, and the team and "more information that the fans didn't have" ... then he was fired 3 week later Edited November 27, 2023 by drummernut74 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is turning down coaching Allen. Ben Johnson? Ben Johnson was made a mockery by the Green Bay defense. I think OC wise he is great, but he is Daboll like to me.

Neo Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 13 hours ago, RyanC883 said: his seat should be on FIRE. He should be gone unless we make the playoffs. Period. Why do NFL coaches get such a long leash with mediocracy year after year. Killed Rivers career in San Diego, Marino in Miami, etc. And will kill Allen's here. College coaches are on the hot seat if they don't win big games. Hockey coaches, same. For some reason NFL coaches like McD and Tomlin get forever. This isn't 1 thing with McD. His defensive meltdowns, unprepared teams, and horrible in game decisions are "the process". The “some reason” for Tomlin is a super bowl victory (youngest coach ever), a .636 winning percentage (11th best in NFL history) in 16 seasons. Since joining the Steelers in 2007, he has led the team to ten playoff runs, seven division titles, three AFC Championship Games, two Super Bowl appearances, and a title in Super Bowl XLIII. Just sayin’ … there are a lot of coaches you can link to your legitimate question. I’m not sure Tomlin’s one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could def be wrong but wasn’t the rumor Shanahan was gonna come but his wife said no. Edit. Could be a couple coaches I’m thinking of.

pocoboy Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 The best cliche analogy I can come up with when it comes to McDermott and a big game is "bringing a knife to a gunfight." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SectionC3 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I’m fine with moving on from McD, but there better be a plan as to his replacement when he’s canned. We don’t have time for someone to learn on the job. I’d even be fine with bringing McD back next year if the preferred replacement is currently unavailable, with the idea that McD hires a DC, lets the OC (probably Brady, at this point) do his thing, and simply is the HC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Super Fan Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 13 hours ago, Bangarang said: I’m not opposed to firing McD. I’m just worried more about Pegula replacing him with someone better Shouldn’t be afraid of change. I get it Terry Pegula doesn’t give one a lot of confidence but he hired Sean McDermott so he gets credit for that. I am trying to be fair as possible with Terry Pegula. But it’s hard for me because as Bills fans know by my posts I can’t stand him as owner of both the Buffalo Bills and Buffalo Sabres. But Terry Pegula gets credit for hiring Sean McDermott who was the right coach at the right time. I thank Sean McDermott for his contributions to the Buffalo Bills team as a Bills fan but it is time for Sean McDermott to go he has taken the Bills as far as he is capable. The Bills need new leadership from the head coaching position and I haven’t forgotten about GM Brandon Breane he isn’t without blame either because his choices on money to free agents like Von Miller is a disaster the Bills are stuck with next season. I wouldn’t be shocked if Sean McDermott and Brandon Beane were fired together at some point as a wake up call to the Bills organization we will see in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nephilim17 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Best news, if true, I've heard about the Bills in a long time. My dream scenario is Josh continues to play at a high level but we have a losing record thanks to more defensive collapses. That should help push MdD out of here. I absolutely do not want a 9-8 "winning" record. Moral victories like that will hurt this team more in the long run by keeping McChoke around. Get a new offensive-specialist head coach and use the second half of Josh's prime properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am really against moving from GMs who do a good job which Beane has done. The biggest mistakes and blunders are coaching not player talent or depth. He has had his misses as Knox contract and Von are looking bad, but overall you want your GM to find starters and have the cap in a workable position which he has been doing. This offseason for Beane is big though as I have mentioned on here he will have 9 picks, the ability to open 40-50 mil in cap space, and you should expect some long time vets like Poyer and Morse to leave. He has a lot of resources how he chooses to use them will 100% drive where this team goes over the next 5-6 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case I'm completely for moving on from a GM that drafts Allen but nearly nothing to support him. That demonstrates an extreme lack of awareness of the team's current situation.

Donuts and Doritos Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 McDermott plays not to loose instead of playing to win. When is the last time his in game coaching decisions won us a close game (I mean him specifically not the coordinators or players)? Not going for it w/ 20 seconds. Not squib kicking w/ 13 seconds.

SCBills Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 (edited) This is the year to make the change. Only thing that should save McDermott is 5-0 and a run in the Playoffs, and that would be mainly because it likely means Joe Brady is a beast as OC and we're willing to run it back to keep him in the mix. The Offense, for the most part, returns. All starting 5 OL, plus Bates, Anderson and Van Demark. Allen, Diggs, Shakir, Kincaid, Knox, Cook. Gabe is 50/50 and it looks like we'll cut Harty to clear 4M. This means WR should be a heavy focus this off-season. And if we miss the playoffs, one of those 5-7 WR1 potential guys should be there for us. The Defense will need a machete taken to it. At this point, especially if McDermott is let go, I'd let Hyde walk, cut Poyer, cut White and focus on re-signing Floyd. Maybe Jones & Epenesa, if they are willing to take team friendly deals. Circa Chiefs '21, draft a bunch of DB's and some DT's to get younger. Edited November 27, 2023 by SCBills 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since Bill Cowher and Dick Lebeau's players left he doesn't have much of a resume to boast. He looks like most other teams and coaches. Makes the playoffs sometimes and pretty much loses. He even has a win over the bengals he had no right to win in the playoffs which makes his last 10 years not that great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
