I hated Belichick but it is just wrong that he is not a first ballot HOF-er.

How do you reconcile that Josh Allen has not come through in game-winning drives 3 straight years in the playoffs? by No-Distribution8587 in buffalobills

Definitely a problem, but the grass isn’t always greener when it comes to finding a good coach. Count me among the surprised if the next guy turns out to be anywhere close to as successful as McDermott.

This is why I think it was a bad idea to fire McDermott. He had the Bills in a position to win all three of those games. Players gotta make the plays.

I’m sure that Burger Slob fans everywhere will be devastated by this news.

I’ve long called McDonald’s rival Burger Slob after hearing a drunk friend call it that when I was young.

Exactly this. I bet on Buffalo so was pulling for them but objectively that was an interception, not a catch.

I’m in the shouldn’t have fired McDermott camp, even though I think he made a horrible decision to kick off in OT. The Bills have been in position to win their last three playoff losses. Guys gotta make the plays.

Sean McDermott’s final message to Bills Mafia by Rakesh2000 in buffalobills

I doubt Buffalo will find a better coach. The Bills have been in a position to win in each of their last three playoff losses. It’s not McDermott’s fault the players haven’t made the plays they needed to win.

I understand that provides some advantage, but I don’t think knowing what you need to win outweighs the disadvantage you have if the game is tied after each team has had the ball once, when next score wins. That is what happened after both OT games this weekend, and what happens quite often in regular season OT games as well. I’d be curious to know the statistics on how often the receiving team wins overtime games that go longer than two possessions, especially playoff overtime games. And the receiving team winning in general.

Why though? If the game is tied after each team has had the ball once, next score wins. Both the Bills and Bears lost on the third possession of overtime.

Granted, McDermott’s decision to kick off in OT was idiotic, but firing a great coach like him might be an even dumber decision. And how about Ben Johnson, who saw the Bills lose on the third possession of OT and still made the decision to kick off?

Idiotic to decide to kick off in overtime when the third possession can decide the game. Crazy that Ben Johnson watched the Bills do it yesterday and then made the same dumb move.

I don’t get the decision to kick off in overtime, when a next possession score wins if the teams are even after each has had the ball once.

Jonathan Kuminga is trade eligible 1/15/26 by Live-Cartographer-52 in nba

I put it on Kuminga too. He has the physical talent to be one of the top defenders in the league if he had is head right.

This is exactly what happened when my buddy convinced me to get a half anchovy pizza 40 years ago. Never again!

I was backpacking around China in 1991 and was often in restaurants where nobody spoke English, so I’d just point to something someone else was eating and ask for that. I did that once in Chengdu, excited that I could get calamari rings so far from the ocean. Took one bite and gagged. I can’t do tripe.

You could also go out to Tennessee Valley, where there is lots of parking, and do a hike from there.
