BuffaloBillyG Posted January 21 Posted January 21 I said it in another thread and I will repeat it til I'm blue in the face. One thing people make the mistake of is not understanding what they don't know. And that's just it. We don't know. We don't know how much influence Sean had over picks, free agents, who to bring back and who to let go. It's something almost everyone struggles with. I have tried to remember that myself. I mean, fair to say everyone has opinions or theories. But we don't and probably never will know. One thing I do know is that there were 10 coaches fired this cycle. And in 9 cases there was very very small amounts of freak out, drama, stories about and rumor of the firing. I would estimate that all 9 other spots combined didn't have half the drama here. Why? My theory is that people know Bills fans are drama merchants and will retweet (is it re-x now) any small snippet of things they say. Was it a good move or a bad one to keep Beane? Time will tell. 3 Quote

So this is what’s likely going to happen… Beane will be the overseer of football with two direct reports: new head coach and a new gm. Watch. so everyone relax. Wait to see this out. In the end, it was time for McD to go. He ran his course. Josh needs a new coach, preferably an offensive minded coach to reach the apex. Everyone take a breath and see this out. Stop buying into the mass hysteria from the local and National media. Well said. Beane will slide right out of the gm role within a year. McDermott had to go. 1 Quote
BuffaloBillsGospel2014 Posted January 21 Posted January 21 The only reason Beane is still here is to take the pressure off of Pegula if it doesn't work out, this way he can just blame Brandon Beane as the fall guy for hiring the wrong HC. 1 Quote

Dinoman Posted January 21 Posted January 21 43 minutes ago, Buffalo716 said: According to Terry pegula bb had final say and full control of the draft Of course Sean McDermott had influence (what coach doesn't )but the Buffalo Bills said Brandon Bean had control even years ago Even if a change had to be made saying Sean McDermott was in total control of the roster doesn't fit in step with what the bills have said over the years Do you think Sean McDermott got rid of jamarcus Ingram? Guy he was developing for years? For a guy that didn't want to come here... Or did BB think he could make slay reconsider If Brandon Beane thought this was a SB roster, dang dude we are in big trouble. Quote

Buffalo Ballin Posted January 21 Posted January 21 This is sooo stupid why people are defending McDermott. He HAD to go. It was time! Who give an EFF that Beane got promoted? The results are all that matters and that's McDermott's name written all over it. Quote
Bruffalo Posted January 21 Posted January 21 I think the argument can be made that the Bills didn't fire enough people, but they certainly didn't fire the wrong one either. Quote

Fairly certain I wrote the exact same words in one of the other seven threads on this topic. 😂 17 minutes ago, Mike in Horseheads said: "Start listening to the fans and you'll be sitting with them" While this is indeed a lovely quote — in this case the fans up in arms are not necessarily wrong. It also doesn’t ring in tune. Plenty of fans have been calling for McClappy’s dismissal for several years. Does that mean that this decision was wrong? Can’t have it both ways. 1 Quote
