    2023-12-07: McDermott Expose, Forces Public Apology


    Tyler Dunne wrote a three-part piece on Sean McDermott which forced McDermott to come out and apologize for comments he made about 9/11 in a speech to the team in 2019.

    The McDermott Problem, Part I: Blame Game

    “This job’s too hard to fight from within and that’s what you do there. … You’ve got to overcome the head coach.”

    The McDermott Problem, Part II: Lost in translation

    “It’s like you make a good batch, but then he just adds a drop of poison in there and it makes the whole thing bad.” There’s a reason these Bills fail in the final seconds.

    The McDermott Problem, Part III: Let Josh be Josh

    “He wants to run through your face and establish the fact that he’s the biggest alpha male dog quarterback in the history of pro football.” Buffalo needs to do what’s right for its QB. Time’s ticking.

    It’s Official, It’s Panic Time for Bills Mafia

    This was Damar Hamlin’s return to Cincinnati almost one year post when he went into cardiac arrest on this very field. Wish we could say it was a great day for both Hamlin’s success story, as well as the team. Unfortunately, Bills offense is completely lost and there is a really good shot we don’t make the playoffs. All I could think about during the game was we aren’t even on the same level as the Bengals. But, for some reason, I wasn’t surprised, all signs all year have been pointing to this being the outcome.

    Listen to Nate Geary’s opening segment on the postgame show, hear his frustration, he pretty much summed it up for me, he was 100% on point.

  • Hail Mary Not Answered for Bucs

    Hail Mary Not Answered for Bucs

    First half looked good, but Bills couldn’t put the game away. Three games in a row it comes down to the final play of the game, this one was way too close for comfort.

    Allen gives us a nice scare during the game with his shoulder. Dalton Kincaid records first career TD. We have a Hail Mary (thankfully not a repeat of the Hail Murray), and a kicker throwing his helmet – did a lot less damage than Dan Carpenter did to himself on our sideline some years back.

    But, as they say, a wins and wins. Next week we have Bengals. For those who don’t recall the playoff game last year they made us look pitiful. Time to see if we can beat them. IMO, if the Hamlin game would have continued, we would have gotten stomped in that game also.
