OT: Bills Fans Are Done with McDermott

[Triumph]

There were warning signs that this loss was coming if you watched the last few Bills games.

They never looked sharp and would lapse into a coma at times.

Hilarious seeing the Belicheck fans who called out Brady for potentially going to the Dolphins as a traitor are now clamoring for Bill to join the Bills

 

[Pape]

Belichick isn't going to Buffalo, because Buffalo is over the cap, with a **** ton of FAs, and a 32.5 million dead cap number for Von Miller.

Tab him as one of your two post 6/1 releases and dead money is cut in half.

If the rumors of what Bill is looking for are correct (an underachieving team) Buffalo fits that to a tee

How many are you talking about? One?
Two?
Probably none.

Bills are just unlucky that their peak ran at the same time as Mahomes. Crazy competition in the afc with Lamar and Burrow to also stand in their way. Bills fans are going to be in for a rude awakening if they move on from McDermott. They are small changes on defense away from putting them over the top. A coaching change would most likely set them back and for that reason, I'm in favor of it lol.

Maybe ... But look to Denver when they dumped John Fox for Gary Kubiak...

Interesting chart from The Athletic article indicating need for Buffalo to retool its defense.

What separates the Bills from the Chiefs (it’s not just Patrick Mahomes): Sando’s Pick Six

The Bills can learn something from the Chiefs, while everyone could learn something from the Ravens, who have been historically dominant.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a provision in BBs separation agreement which stated he couldn't coach in the division the following year.

Based on what Robert said, that's doubtful.

They're still over the cap, and have 30 free agents. And restructuring Allen and Diggs is just going to cement that window shut for 2025.
Anyone complaining about the Patriots drafts should look at the Bills the last 3 years. It's bleak. They're done.

Atlanta's 30 million under the cap, with better offensive position players than the Bills have, outside of QB.

Being $45M over the cap with only around 40 players signed is crazy. You need to find all that cap space to get back to zero but also need to make space to sign your rookies and you need another ~5 signings after that just to fill out your Top 51 roster. And the Dolphins are in the same spot.

BB would pass Schula no problem in Buffalo.

Probably put the win record out of reach for good if BB wanted to coach longer.

It won't be as easy as you think but what's the big deal anyway? It'd be more impressive if Bill didn't already own the loss record.

What did he say?

Owning the loss record is irrelevant since he has a .647 career winning %

Quote from RKK

"Yeah, I guess, if you look at this as a transaction, he is so valuable and how we could extract something, I didn't think it was right. I didn't think it was right for Tom Brady, who gave us 20 years. And I don't think it's right for Bill."

I’m starting to wonder if Bill is even going to get the Falcons job. The Falcons are now interviewing the Texans and Lions OC’s according to NFL Good Morning Football. If Arthur Blank really wanted Bill wouldn’t he just interview two coaches to satisfy the Rooney rule and then hire Bill instead of interviewing Harbaugh, and the two OC’s.

The context of that statement is a trade. It's unknown if he has any specific language preventing him from going to another AFC East team.

Yeah, seems like Blank is having second thoughts. Or probably more likely McKay doesn't want to have to work with Bill and is pushing the search away from him.

I mean, if the ownership had any guts, they would have fired him immediately after that fake punt.

After the terrible 9/11 comparison..

Diggs is a bust. Allen put the ball on the money and he can't catch it.

If it was a bag of money Diggs would have come down with it.

Diggs was trending downward.. hadn't had a 100 years game the last 6 weeks... still a great WR.. but father time hits us all..

...and had a bad drop on that long ball in the 4th qtr.

That's what it appears to be. Just an odd scenario you have the GOAT HC in for 2 interviews.. fly him in on a private jet.. then your still interviewing candidates... just odd...

If that was JC Jackson in coverage Diggs would have caught it with one hand.. lol
