I'm curious, HK. How do Bills fans feel about McDermott as your HC?
From my pov, he cost you the 13 secs game and Sunday night's game bc of the 2 awful pass plays at the end which never should have been an option.
His in-game management in crunch time has been a killer.
They've been calling for his job all season and now it's been ramped up,
The feeling is he's a Marty/Marvin. He can get to the playoffs but can't get to the SB.
His clock management is horrible. He didn't do it in the playoffs, thankfully, but he's wasted more time outs, taking them on Defense at the end of a half/game for NO reason.
I can't blame Sunday on him - other than the fake punt. I don't believe the called plays were heave it to the End Zone. I put that on Allen but a Captain goes down with the ship, right??
As for running the Defense, what he did with a roster of 2nd and 3rd stringers - I mean, AJ Klein was reading the help wanted section in the paper 3 weeks ago - is admirable. He showed that he could adapt and many games where the opponents came out moving the ball well, McD did a great job stopping them as the game went on. He did it to KC.
The downside is the drafts have been defense heavy and we've needed new blood at WR alone for 2-3 years
Frankly, I'm in the middle. He took a 17-year playoff drought, a joke of a team and brought us this far but on the other hand, we need someone who had a better vision for a team built around Allen.
Of course, the cries for Harbaugh are loud but I don't see that. Someone online said BB should be our DC - which is utterly stupid. I don't know any Head Coach prospects that are out there but regardless, Pegula won't fire a guy for being this successful and not fire a Sabres coach who has lost his team and can't put 16 high 1st-round draft choices - 3 First over-all - in a position to win
