Agree with this 100%. While yesterday was the final nail in the coffin for me supporting McDermott, and think it’s time to move on, there really isn’t a slam dunk HC candidate (ex. Jon Gruden in 2002). Maybe Harbaugh, but it’s not clear if he’d be willing to leave college.

Regardless of who is their HC in 24, the Bills should be in the mix; how confident are we as fans in an coordinator who has never been a HC leading this team to the Super Bowl next year? I think because of this reason, and the fact that Pegula seems to value loyalty/continuity, there’s a very good chance that McD is the HC in 24.

It would be a really tough sell to hire a HC who couldn’t even finish out the season.

Three weeks ago, I liked the idea of Reich as OC, but you’ve got to think the OC job in 24 is Bradys to lose at this point.

I get the point that all the folks who say “at least this isn’t as bad as the drought!” are making, but you have to realize that with football, as in life, your expectations should change.

Think of it this way: Let’s say you were unemployed for a long time. You’'ve been applying, and you’ll take any job you can get. Then, you land a job! And not just any job, this is a job that you really, truly enjoy; rewarding work that you’re good at, fun co-workers, a kick ass boss, great benefits/salary, etc. You can see yourself staying in this job for the rest of your career.

However, after a few years, things start to not be quite as good. The work starts to become not so enjoyable. A few of those great co-workers leave. You start to deal with more BS from your boss.

Would you tell someone who was in this situation “at least you aren’t unemployed!” Yes, obviously having a crappy job is better than not having one at all, but based on your situation, your expectations of the job have changed, and rightfully so. This is how we should approach our expectations of the Bills.
