Ray Finkel Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 6 hours ago, Yobogoya! said: Even with one TO you've got to at least try one pass there. If you pick up 15-20 yards, you take the timeout and have at least one if not two tries to get another 15-20 where you then spike the ball and try the kick. Can't agree with that decision. Even if Gabe had ran the correct read in OT and caught the winning touchdown, I'd still say he was wrong to pass up the chance to win with 20 seconds left. I am sure Andy Reid would have knelt down with Mahomes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt anything happens now but if the Bills miss the playoffs, then he has to do something. That's going to be interesting. He's gotta balance future interest in the team with Allen with Season Ticket sales in the new stadium, particularly given those PSLs. If Allen were to retire tomorrow, that would be a much tougher sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the Denver game he blitzes at the end and gets burned. In this game he doesn't. Same result...a loss. He got away from "playing not to lose" and now he's back there again. My hope is that during this bye week he realizes he needs to put the game on his offense...which is now the team's strength under Brady. Play the season out with that mindset. Let's see what happens. In the off season...depending on what happens, let the chips fall where they may. Not going to happen . Sean sees things in black/white and he is not adaptable. For a defensive coach you would think he would figure out a way to get a stop at the end of a game by accident once in a while He's o for this season far as I am concerned He got lucky the Giants game they didnt call the grab by Taron Johnson and lucky Godwin didnt see the fb on the Bucs Hail Mary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmotionallyUnstable Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 I posed a question to my Bills buddy, who has a pure hatred for McD and oddly enough, Dion Dawkins: ”Hey Joe, if you were in a room with McDermott, Dawkins and a gun with one bullet, which one of the three of you would you shoot?” “….Id just hand the gun to McDermott. He’d shoot himself in the foot.” 😂 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Since1981 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Terry isn’t in this for the money (tickets or contracts). If he’s not having “fun” (however he defines it….then). A $7 billionaire can’t spend it. I’m sure he likes Sean but if Terry isn’t having “fun” because of Sean costs Terry .01% of his children’s inheritance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Ferguson Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 McWimpy didn't learn from the 13 ***** seconds debacle. I don't think he will ever will learn out of sheer stubborness or stupidty. He had 20 seconds and two timeouts (if he didn't waste one on icing the kicker that never works) and a freaking unicorn of a QB who was balling against the Eagles. All Josh Allen needed to do was drive maybe 40-45 yards for Bass to kick the game winning field goal. Instead McWimpy shrunk and wimpered like he always do and have Allen kneel it down. I knew BIlls lost that game after that pathetic wimpy HC decision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Williams Available Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 8 hours ago, ALLinALLEN said: I think the real reason he didnt push the 20 seconds there for a FG was because he was terrified of an Allen pick. I think that's a terrible reason NOT to try to win , but it's certainly a reason. This is correct. He doesn’t trust his QB. Their styles clash (conservative vs fly-by-pants improv). Yet, he trusts his D time and again to win games and they consistently let him down. He probably fondly recalls the Giants ending when making decisions in-game vs the Pats ending. Even though they were both defensive failures. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At all. No, it's not hindsight. It's being prepared for late game situations. He's not prepared for them after 7 years on the top job and after 22 years of coaching in the NFL. I have never seen anyone take on less accountability than this clown. Who will the next scapegoat be? I'm not sure at this point who I dislike more, McD the coach or McD the human being. Quote but McDermott said he worried about Allen taking a sack, and didn’t know if 20 seconds would be enough time. “I thought about it. I thought about going for it. It’s just with their pass rushers and 20 seconds,” McDermott said. Allen took 1 sack all game. KC beat you in 13 seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McDeerInTheHeadlights Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 9 hours ago, thenorthremembers said: Why would you dislike McD as a human being? You literally dont know the guy personally. Not sure if you are purposely playing dumb or just like to state the obvious. Obviously, no one on here knows McDermott from a personal life perspective. As a public figure, he sounds more and more like the ultimate hypocrite. Preaches accountability but doesn't want any, advocates a somewhat blurry concept he calls "the process", which I guess would imply continuous improvement, yet constantly shows he refuses, can't, or is too stubborn to learn from his own mistakes. I guess that's what people are growing more frustrated with, rather than what he does behind closed doors in his private life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is, before that happens, Bills have to have a clear idea of a few available candidates to replace him! Too many people just want to fire the guy, without thinking of the next step(s). BTW the team played hard still, so the "lost the locker room" narrative crap has got to go. But he is the opposite of clutch. Being one and done in the playoffs is not good enough 7 years in. It's not our job to think about the next steps. They will have interviews in place. They aren't stupid. McD is not the only coach in the world. I don't think he has lost the locker room persae but I do think his message is getting old to these players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything he should’ve known his defense couldn’t close out a game to save their lives and use the 20 seconds and a time out to get in fg range.

He should thank Josh Allen every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
