Sean McDermott Fired

[Jackie Lee]

I guess they have been playing the Cam card with Allen and eventually if the QB can't carry the team it all falls apart but that was also just a bad game for Allen. Didn't watch much of their regular season

Their fans want to fire Beane more than McDermott.

To everyone saying he won't take a DC job and only will be taking a HC job this year, I'm not entirely sure about that.

To begin with, in today's NFL, most teams prefer to hire an offensive background coach over defensive.

Adding to that, there have been 3 hires so far this year, with 2 of them being defensive guys.  And since there are only going to be so many teams looking to hire a defensive minded HC each year, it decreases his odds.  Also, Saleh was always a hot name in this cycle and teams are probably more familiar with him as they've been looking into him for a while already.

Then you look at the openings left...

The Cardinals just fired a defensive coach, can't see them hiring another right after.

I can't see him wanting to go to the Raiders or Browns (sure, the Browns could actually be a great fit because of the defense they'd have for him to take over, but going from Josh Allen to the freaking Browns situation would be real tough I'd think).   

That just leaves the Ravens and Steelers.  He's probably too old for the Steelers to have any interest in him and I've got to think the Ravens are going to be looking for an innovative offensive mind type of HC to maximize Lamar's prime window.

Sure, he might just sit the season out and try for a HC job next offseason, but I just don't see any fits that make sense for him right now.

There's never been a HC/QB combo that's went to a Super Bowl and it wasn't within first 5 years.

Only 2 teams had Super Bowl hopes this season that were outside that window.

Buffalo: McDermott and Allen

Baltimore: Harbaugh and Jackson

Both coaches after failing a Super Bowl run were fired at the end of the season.

When you look at how bad BUF has been in FA and drafting you realize how god awful Beane is

Cards have hired GB DC.

Mcderp, he was the one to end the goat HC rein. At the time bills were in the 20 years and no playoffs area. He own that division, Billy beanie has done little drafting after-wise after getting very lucky with Josh Allen. Since then Josh has carried the most, its very hard drafting with the 25th spot each round.

This just can't be a real stat, right?

That seems so wild

This is a great point and its very true. 

Even Ryan Kalil knew of it and was just one year too soon.

Its real and Been talked about among all the stat nerds, you got to member the massive turnover each NFL season. Rough numbers- every team will replace around 35% of the their roster each year and around 8 HC will be fired each year.

Its crazy, but that's the deal....

It's wild but it's a true stat.

Which is why I had doubts about Buffalo getting over the hump in the playoffs.
