A great team that went 2-14 the year before. lol

I feel like a lot of Josh's playoff losses are in shootouts and in OT right? Didn't they literally change the OT rule because he lost in a shootout with Mahomes and never got the ball in OT? This year he has several turnovers no doubt, probably because he is trying to play hero ball too hard. It was also a terrible call on that WR catch. Also yes Mahomes is the better QB no doubt. His franchise also built a better team around him. If the game is on the line Mahomes it the one you want above all right now. https://www.statmuse.com/nfl/ask/josh-allen-playoff-stats Josh Allen has a passer rating of 101.5 with 3,915 yards, 29 touchdowns and 6 interceptions in 15 games in the playoffs in his career

Dysfunctional as hell, right now, but it will settle down once again with the right coach.

I mean, that's easy to say now, but it's not like McDermott was going to be fired unless Pegula fired him. I suspect that Pegula won't be any more involved with the Bills than he has been, as he just made Beane the football czar. It's Beane's show now, and all the pressure and responsibility that comes with it.

This is my fist time hearing of this guy!! Looking at the Bills Press Conference I'm glad he works for the Bills and not us

I mean, how many times have they benched him and otherwise punished him and at this point clearly stating that it's for stuff like this? It's not exactly "leaking" anything.

Also, Pegula said coaching staff. Not Coach McDermott specifically. Does he want them all out of there? Maybe. I saw speculation that they fired McD to move Brady up, but maybe Brady is gone too.

When you are picking where they are picking, you typically don't have it zeroed in on one particular player. I will say that we kind of did though, and both look like they were reaches at this point in their young careers. I agree in that Allen needed and still needs some help.

Josh hasn't always played well in crunch time. I mean, it's easy to play hero ball during the regular season. But let's not forget that they've had teams. Diggs would probably have something to say about "hero ball" and being run off. Also, I guess Mahomes is the greater hero.

An owner, publicly undermining his own players, claiming they didn't want him and it was all the coach he just fired and is also publicly panning. Constantly shouting and interrupting his newly promoted GM to Prez, complaining about refs, saying he fired McD because of the loss but the calls were the reason they lost. He was absurd and is rightfully being mocked around the league. Promoting the GM who, yes, did a nice job the first few years, and then has slowly watched the defense turn to mush and has never found a decent weapon outside of James Cook. Buffalo looks bad in all of this, and it's not a jab exclusively at Beane. Like I said, noting the parallels doesn't mean a one-for-one "Beane" was the problem. But it's interesting and watching this unfold is kind of telling the owner is in his own head like crazy.

The simply fact that they are letting it be known that a current young player on their roster was only there because of a coach that they fired just shows how dysfunctional it all is. McD typically kept it classy.

My guess is in general they all knew it was important to get Allen some help. OC probably had McDermott’s ear and gave his evaluations. Scouts too. McDermott obliged and advanced the preference for Coleman. I could see that more than McDermott thought himself a WR expert.

Yes icky is on the books with zero certainty of return, Moton getting older with knee issues…draft that versatile OT in the first or second if one is there…rookie contract

I mean, yeah, what is he supposed to say? I don't believe it was a case of dying on a hill, just everyone showing a united front by being on the same page. I certainly know that McDermott didn't think that Coleman would be his undoing. I will say this, I'd be feeling some type of way if I were Coleman right now. If this doesn't motivate him to raise his game, then maybe he can't raise it. Lastly, I don't know that McDermott will let that slide if it's not really true. I wouldn't.

In my opinion, it looks like a pretty tight bond has formed between Terry and Beane. It's Khan/Baalke esque. And the way Terry kept interrupting Beane's answers and all, it gave off very strange vibes.

Also I can’t imagine Brady takes this job unless he’s willing to pull a Top Ten Anime Betrayals type move on McDermott. McDermott picked his ass up off the concrete midseason when the panthers fired him and gave him a job. Dude would be coaching at Liberty University if not for McDermott.

Pegula was all over the place. He embarrassed and contradicted himself like crazy. https://x.com/BillyM_91/status/2013995929905369342?ref_src=twsrc^tfw|twcamp^tweetembed|twterm^2013995929905369342|twgr^154a350e928fdfdae8baeadc6cb0963d9ce4952b|twcon^s1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fftw.usatoday.com%2Fstory%2Fsports%2Fnfl%2F2026%2F01%2F21%2Fnfl-video-terry-pegula-keon-coleman-bills-brandon-beane%2F88284627007%2F "I'm glad [Coleman] ran that," Beane said. "It'll help to get him."

He must think he is God’s gift to the NFL. Which he ain’t. It looks like we really did well with McMillan. He is in no way a diva type thank goodness.

This could also just be the team leaking poo. The bills aren’t draping themselves in glory here looking like Keon might have been a flashpoint for a lot of internal tensions.

Now replace Beane with Josh Allen playing hero ball.

https://x.com/GianlucaFulcin1/status/2014008063015968993 "When I went to bed that night I was like, it's Keon unless someone just blows us away..." ~Brandon Beane GM I also would be surprised if McDermott (a defensive coach) was pushing really hard for a certain WR in Keon Coleman (who went in round 2). Seems like an odd hill for him to die on...

The issue isn't on the field, it's off. Evidently the guy just absolutely cannot show up for meetings on time and is probably having other types of maturity/dedication type issues as well.

Maybe they aren’t planning on him being there. Haven’t watched them, how bad is he?

It's also not an either or situation. Beane may have done a bad job with the roster and deserves to be fired. But at the same time, its possible that McDermott was never gonna get them over the hump as head coach. Not defending the Bills org, but just because Beane deserves to be fired doesn't mean McDermott doesn't either.
