It’s painfully obvious McD is not going to lead this team to a Lombardi. Stop. This team is in a position of absolute power to hire a top coach. Go ahead, point to a better situation; a solid D, top 5 QB, and a semi competent GM, with an owner who will spend, I’ll wait. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Pegula would just join a long list of other owners that are not able to predict the future and hire the wrong guy. So yes a likely better than 50/50 he hires the wrong guy, but that's just normal in the NFL Yeah but what are the percentages like if the new coach hire inherits an elite franchise qb?

jahnyc Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I think the Chargers head coaching job will be potentially more attractive than the Bills. The Bills' cap situation is not good, but having Josh Allen as your QB will be attractive to potential candidates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luka Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Lost the team. Scape goated every single coordinator and assistant that's come through the doors. Except this year he chose to run the defense himself and it's worse than it ever was. It's time to fire the defensive coordinator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can’t win with his defense and the offense did their part, then he deserves to be fired. What argument is there to keep him? He somehow helped Tyler Boyd make that play that got us into the playoffs and broke the drought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEBills Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 It’s time to move on. With all respect to what he has helped us accomplish to this point. McD is the longest tenured current coach to not have at least appeared in a Super Bowl. This year was the last hurrah. To fix our cap next year we will be turning the page on Tre, Poyer, Hyde, Morse, maybe Taron Johnson. The core of the team that McD built has aged out. It is a good time to start fresh and retool our team to be focused on offense with an offensive minded HC. This is Josh Allen’s prime, we can’t waste it.

The Red King Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 (edited) I'm done with him. Fire him into the sun. I defended McD to a point. I cut the defense some slack b/c of injuries. I pointed out that the offense was just as bad and didn't have that as an excuse. I don't even think the D is as bad as many do. We had turnovers, had a 10 point lead. My problem is with how the D plays at the end of the game, when it's on them to win it. Denver, NE, and Philly just needed the D to hold. For NE we were up by 3, same with Philly in OT, so even if we held them to a FG, we'd still be in it. Instead, we gave up TDs. We almost lost to the Giants, surviving due to an uncalled penalty. And if there was more time on the clock does anyone think we'd have stopped Tampa. With the game on the line the defense and McD play scared. Time and again the O makes the big plays, just to watch the D give the game away. I am sick of it. And of McD. Nobody that watched this season can look me in the eye and say 13 seconds wouldn't happen again.
