TD alt

I feel ya. The only thing I really disagree with is the catch. I have listened to plenty of analysis, have seen stills and of course video. I will never believe it was a catch, as Cooks did not secure the ball,which allowed the receivers hands in there and snatch the ball away. That wasn't a running situation. Knee down on the ground and ball in hands does not count. The process of the catch was not over. As far as OT, it is what it is. That's why it's a team sport. The D let him down in 13 seconds.

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.

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.

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.

Hey, I'll take a London Fletcher clone.

I don't think he'll go anywhere if they hire Brian Daboll.

Well, I'm not "close" to that situation and really don't follow Hockey. But all I can say is is that I can't fault the man for thinking that a change was needed. He thought they had hit a wall. Sometimes a message gets stale and a change of scenery is needed. It could be the best thing for McDermott and the best thing for the Bills in the end.

I think you guys are vastly underestimating the power that McDermott had. Terry Pegula, during his presser, said outright that Keon Coleman was NOT BEANE'S next choice. Beane gave into the coaching staff because it was a collaboration. That's what Pegula said. Now we'll likely never know which picks were Beane's and which picks were McDermott's, but suffice it to say that there is a reason McDermott was fired. Pegula basically said that he thought they had hit a wall with all the almost-wins-turned-losses, and he thought that they needed a change. Pegula also addressed the narrative about Beane making some type of power play. He flat out said that had Beane done that, he would've been fired on the spot. For anyone that's interested, it was a compelling interview to watch or listen to.

They all provide some value at or around their current numbers. I'd be reluctant to let a solid, but unspectacular, DT (or OT for that matter) just leave without talking to him.

Meh. You don't necessarily trade a king's ransom for a draft pick, but you should strike when the opportunity presents itself. It's all about scouting and taking the BPA. You don't pass up on a viable QB---your guy who's just sitting there--just because it's year one to three and your team has holes. Just build your team.

I mean, it's still one of the best jobs that one could have, only 32 in the world. Tom Pelissero said to watch for Sean McDermott at that very same job on Rich Eisen yesterday, & extolling the virtues of the job and why McDermott might end up there. They wanted Saleh however. I can't wait to see what he does. This is his last chance to be HC more than likely. He'll get that defense up and running again, no doubt. What will probably be key is his hire for OC.

I heard on ESPN or Fox Sports, that Beane's role has actually been expanded. He's President of Football Operations, but he still retains his role as GM.

I would give that illustrious characteristic/title to X, formerly known as Twitter. Well, maybe so called social media in general. X is just the top, or the bottom...

Also, I will say @kungfoodude, AI is not inherently a bad thing, especially within the context of the Internet, searching and aggregating information. You just have to realize that in its current iteration, it's not error free, so you have to check the sources, but the better it gets the more accurate it should get. It doesn't replace critical thinking, it's a tool in order to aid critical thinking. Just because someone uses AI to gather information doesn't make them wrong. It could make them "lazy" in the sense that they should double-check the veracity of information and sometimes they don't. But, AI is a tool, at least for now, and that's really the concept behind AI: to aid humanity. It may be a wondrous thing a century from now.

Nah, just a modern world full of typos with the emergence of texting while doing other things

I mean, I was accused of "simping" for the guy, so...The Huddle gonna Huddle. I guess people's feelings are genuinely hurt that McDermott got the axe. Like AI explained in the other thread, it's unfortunate, but he was the HC for players that underperformed time and time again during crunch time (much like B-more for Harbaugh). Even owners get tired sometimes and perceive that a change is needed. Coaches are generally the ones that are fired in these situations, especially when teams really are championship-caliber.

Dolphins hire Jeff Hafley as HC. https://www.nfl.com/news/jeff-hafley-dolphins-hire-packers-dc-next-head-coach There were several interested teams, including the Steelers.

TERRIBLE throw by Beck! Could've been a TD.

Dumb penalty time

Let him end it.

I just hate being too conservative near the end. McVay's pussy play calling near the end of regulation should've lost them the game last night.

Miami is about toast.

Do you guys hate Dan Morgan. Give the guy a break for his first draft. He did take the future OROY last year.

Becker is a beast. Mendoza has that faith. Great chemistry.
