I’ve said it here a million times. The last 4 years our offense has been championship caliber. Our defense has literally kept us from a championship because they don’t show up in big games and we get gashed by good running backs. How long until McDermott is called to the carpet and held accountable? Oh that’s right he won’t because his buddy is the GM and the owner doesn’t have a friggin clue about football. We are wasting a once in a lifetime QB’s window with bull crap defense with a scheme the current players cannot run.

 

it is so frustrating to watch this shyt every $&@!ing year.

True somewhat.  But the last two playoff exits the D sucked all game, but made stops at the end, giving the Bills a chance to win.  But the offense choked both times.  So to me, D is overstated.  I want an offense that can put together winning drives in the playoffs.

And for the most part we have had that. This years defense is such a sieve we may not even reach the playoff. To be honest I’d like for the crap to hit the fan. I’ve had enough of their GM/ Coach. We’ve had the best WB in the league the last 3 years and have zero to show for it.

They brought Ryan Neilsen in, yea. Allegedly to help with their pressure packages.

Right, it seems like they’ve been toying with their defensive looks and I don’t even think McD or Babich knows how it’s supposed to work, let alone the actual players.  My bet is McD pulls back on some of the more exotic stuff they’ve been trying to introduce and goes back to more vanilla coming out of the bye.

Does everybody here use the wrong spelling of "complementary" in "complementary football" on purpose? Is it some kind of inside joke?

If you hadn’t noticed, grammar isn’t the strength of the average poster here 😃

Not saying we're a good run defense, but we're 6 games in a a couple really long breakaway runs will do that ...

Sounds like something a McDermott Defense Force member would say.

If we had that, we would have won the part two Super Bowls.  My lasting 24 playoff memory is Dalton Kincaid dropping the ball, season over.

Beane and McD get 10 times the heat from other city radio stations than our own.

 

WGR:

 

Morning show -  We won’t talk about it because the owner isnt going to fire them anyway

Sal show - Condescendingly, “well who you going to replace him with!”  Pompously, “everyone just wants to fire the coach.”

Afternoon show - Literal meltdowns this week by Bulldog screaming “WHY ARE WE TALKING ABOUT FIRING THE COACH!!!!!!”

 

I have to give credit to Beane and McD because they do have local media/podcasters totally inline and controlled.  Imagine what WFAN would have done if Beane went on their station and pulled his little WR stunt.  Imagine if McD went on a weekly radio hit in Philly and said absolutely nothing.  Just spewing boring coach word salad crap like “fundamentals, complimentary football” just saying “we will see?” to everything.

Yeah they wouldn’t last long with the media here. I live in Giants/Jets country, and they absolutely hate Daboll and Joe Schoen
