        He might be a good DC, not sure if he fits the culture. He's too much in the Wrecks Wryan/Greg Williams camp.

          McDermott as been to the playoffs 5 out 6 years after the team missed for almost 2 decades. We have won a playoff game in 3 consecutive years which is a feat that 21 other franchises can't say they've done. Highly ranked on O, Highly ranked on D and ST.

          All this to say I don't think he is going anywhere.

            The general idea is there though. The annual crumpling choke.

                After 13 seconds, Frazier should've been fired, and McD should've been given another year to prove he can even lead the team to a SB. And here we are, with another playoff no show. Not just a loss... they weren't even slightly competitive, at home. Another season with more empty words and no improvement.

                You can thank McD all you want for turning this team into a playoff team. That's great, but if that's his ceiling, what's the point? Fabulous playoff losses every year. If he stays, both coordinators need to be replaced by the best to make up for what he lacks.

                  You’ve lost it. How is Josh the problem. He’s our entire offense. He’s running for his life. Replace Josh Allen with a guy like Carr or even Aaron Rodgers we aren’t winning East last year.

                    The only person mismanaging Josh is Josh himself.
                    No. Josh is being allowed to mismanage himself because he doesn't have the proper guidelines and guidance. He's being placed into a situation that is not favorable then expected to succeed because he's Josh Allen and he can overcome it. Unfortunately, Josh Allen can't overcome himself and the tools and structure are not there to protect him.

                    According to McDermott every player fails to execute well here and there and it always ends up equaling our losses. At what point is McDermott responsible to put them into a better situation they can actually execute consistently in?

                      Josh is the problem because everything is designed to let Josh Allen be Josh Allen. We should be seeing Josh Allen make plays AND a team that can execute basic football not struggle to run and catch.

                          Remember here when people were actually clamoring for Martyball ? Finally happened.

                            I dont think the players on offense are terrible. Are our WRs overrated? absolutely. And honestly, i dont know what any one sees with Cook. He looks like a very smooth runner out there, but I dont see quickness, I dont see speed, and I certainly dont see any power. That said, as a unit we're above average, and despite Josh disappearing yesterday, he has shown many many times that he can put this team on his shoulders and win. Need to give Dorsey another shot given how the first 6 weeks of this season.

                            The defense though... I honestly dont know what to do.
                            • Poyer's done.
                            • Hyde.. he's getting up there in age and who knows what he'll look like after this injury.
                            • I dont mind Edmunds, even though he didnt play yesterday (yes... sarcasm). Someone is going to overpay for him, so he's gone
                            • White... and the rest of the corners? I think they were spoiled by Poyer and Hyde, who really made this defense work.
                            • Rousseau, he's looked average vs the pass to above average vs. the run. Good player but not someone who's going to take over a game (or at least he hasnt shown it yet).
                            • Epenesa, Basham, etc... who cares.
                            • Settle? I was wrong. I really thought based on the reports of him in Washington, that he was going to be a franchise guy for us. Did he play yesterday?
                            • Phillips? too injury prone
                            • Von Miller... he'll be 34.5 years old when the season starts.


                            Outside of Oliver and Milano (and I guess Daquon Jones), and seeing what we have with Elam and Benford, it almost feels like a rebuild.

                              Wrong, his decline this year is tied to Dabol leaving Josh improved year year with him. It’s no coincidence he declined this year with Dorsey, there is no offensive discipline.
