The McDermott Problem: Blame Game (https://chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=351264)

See, offensive linemen, everyone talks about the ability of the old Bronco lines of the 90s to execute cut blocks, but they couldn't chop anything like the Hutu did in Rwanda. That's the kind of effort I want.

McDermott owning the 9/11 story pretty much seals the credibility of the hit piece for me.

The dude set out to make a hit piece, and by all accounts he did a damn good job of making one.

"The only thing I care about is the 125 people in this locker room. The 53 guys on the team, and the 72 virgins I got upon the completion of my jihad."

is team america lampooning required in next week's video?

It's rhetorical, but anyone that isn't in a state of denial fully realizes that McDoesn'tKnow doesn't know offense, and that if it ever came down to a popularity contest between him and Allen, he wouldn't stand a chance, in any way, shape, or form. He's catering to Allen.

It's also my position that the reason why he won't hire a noted OC capable of making this offense run on all 8 cylinders optimally, is that he doesn't want to be replaced by that person after his defenses continue to fail us in the playoffs while the offense shines. That position is very much in line with this piece by Dunne.

And BTW, Dunne is typically incredibly well researched. He doesn't just float garbage for clicks as some have speculated.

He's a dead-man walking, it's just a matter of how long Pegs keeps him around. Beane's in no position to fire him on his own. He'll likely be the one that delivers the pink-slip, but he's not going to stab the guy that gave him the job under the unlikeliest of circumstances.

It’s a common theme to discredit an article by stating that it’s for “clicks”. Which in this case is especially odd, since “for clicks” is a phrase that indicates that the author wrote something inflammatory to drive click-traffic that increases advertising revenue. But Dunne doesn’t get paid for clicks (he has zero ads).

Quote:

It's inevitable at this point that McDermott won't be coaching here for much longer.

Quote:

I don’t disagree with the conclusions, but sourcing a manifesto like this with the isaiah mckenzie’s and quinton spain’s of the world has me actually defending mcdermott. Every NFL coach who’s been around for 7+ years has accumulated a list of disgruntled ex’s . So out of 300+ players, coach and staff mcdermott has had the last 7 years, one psycho reporter has religiously tracked down anybody who might have a beef with mcdermott. Reporter comes off as unhinged.

Quote:

If this is true and Morse drew a Jordan logo on his boots, that’s an issue. Making fun of the HC shows you don’t respect him. If players aren’t respecting the HC, it’s time to fire him for sure.

I’d really hate for our failure to get to the Super Bowl being McD. If he’s and issue I would hope Beane would have addressed it. Unless he has no say in the coach, as has been stated on these boards before.

Kinda would like the players to and and get him fired. If we make the playoffs, it will be McD’s “doing” and save his hide.

Hopefully the Bills players mail it in like the Unabomber

Pre-game warmups, the Chiefs should all wear #13 on their jerseys.

Kinda reminds me of that hit piece on KC from the last couple years.

Quote:

Multiple sources use the word “bizarre” in recalling how McDermott viewed the relationship between assistant coaches and their players. He appeared jealous.

The Bills receivers loved Chad Hall so much that they bought him a truck for Christmas in 2020. An objectively touching moment that Isaiah McKenzie shared via Instagram.

But Sean McDermott? Oh boy. Sean McDermott was not pleased. One source described this as “a dark day at One Bills Drive.”

Said one assistant: “I thought it was cool as shit. And he made it into the biggest negative ever. That’s him. He couldn’t take that. He couldn’t handle that. He couldn’t let that be. He couldn’t let that stand. And there’s cases of that more so on the offensive side of the ball than the defensive side. He has zero relationship with the offensive players. Zero. None. Absolutely zero. He’s insecure. He wants the relationship that he can’t have with the players. Because he’s not physically, mentally, or socially able to.”

So this one is the part that my mind keeps going back to even though it's pretty unclear what exactly McDermott did to shit all over it. Just the idea that one of your assistant coaches, who was hired by you, has such a great relationship with a position group that is widely considered successful. And that's...a negative? Sounds like an actual pocket of good culture and positivity in this uptight shitty organization you run. Better squash it quick.

We are going to Kill the Bills

No Mafia references for local flavor?

I can't believe they haven't fired him already after that.
