Rienhart on pace for 60-65 points, wtf, should have way more production from a #2 overall pick..

Might be late:

Pekar, Luukonen and Laaksonen are going to Worlds

Pekar looked great at camp.
Glad to see non Sabres fans recognize his presence

pretty sure the % of losses over 14 points are greater with this coach than any other bills head coach


plus they backed into the playoffs last season and if they had any offensive game plan they easily beat the jaguars in the playoffs


I'd upgrade the head coach just like any other position in the bills organization if I was their GM

I still say give them a 3rd year. By then we'll know if Allen sucks or not. They both lose their job next year anyway if he's not becoming a franchise QB. That's when you clean house IMO

Yup. Hoping he can be our Steve Ott, center or no.

sarcasm.. I happen to like Sam. He is who he is. 50-60 pt guy with maybe the odd 60-70 pt season sprinkled in there if the moons align right.

If it were a question of the execution by the offense, then I would agree with you. But

-his in game management has been amateurish at best.

-He's way too conservative with his game calls

-1/9 in coach's challenges is pathetic.

-He runs one of the most penalized teams in the league

-When somebody asks him about anything negative on the team, "I have to watch the tape."


I'm not judging him on the offense. I'm judging him on him.
Go back to slinging booze.

Couple really good points. Mcdermott's game day coaching decisions suck.

I think he's a great motivator and probably communicates well with the staff and the pegulas.

This year the odds were stacked against our offense.

Peterman
Rookie qb
No receivers
Calvin sucks
Clay sucks
Zay Jones tried to jump out of a window
Cognito retired
Wood retired

Cards were stacked against him

Not sure if that is %100 mcdermott's call.

Pretty sure 1/3 of the cap was paying non 2018 players

Should have used star's $. But again, that's on the gm

Exactly
We didn’t have the Cap to keep a good defense AND fix the offense

I don’t think any other coach, including Reid or Payton or McVay, could’ve done much more with the offense

There’s certainly points to be made against McDermott,
but just saying “he sucks” or calling him “McDummy” is going too far
He’s done things well too
What he’s done with the defense has been impressive

Is he the right guy to spend all this Cap space & fix the offense?
That’s certainly arguable
But again,
No coach would’ve been able to do much with this group either

He has done well on the side of the ball that rewards athleticism and reaction. The D is penalized as much or more than the Offense. He hasn’t shown the ability to build a craft a complete team. He’s a head coach, not a DC.

If you score 50% on a high school exam, that’s an “F”.

So is this: “F” McDummy.

I cant give him a grade until I see what him and Beane can accomplish with all of the cap space we will have.

You could have just said that one

There is no more damning indictment on McD than Peterman

Maybe the cap had something to do with trying to sign these guys on the cheap?

Mcbeane has drafted well
Tre white
Allen
Edmund's
Dawkins
Zay - maybe
Milano

Stuck with clay , shady and watkins.
Darius and all of there overpriced contracts

They didn't sign McCoy to the highest rb deal

I'm fully on board with "he is not good anymore"

He doesn't fumble, I'll give him that. But he sucks now
