Like, I don't know.
It just felt like they want to make a change to make a change.
But I'm really interested to see, like, what is the road ahead?
What is the plan?
Because Josh Allen's 30 and the expectations are a Super Bowl.
So with these crop of candidates, you're going to have to find a guy that's as good, if not better than McDermott.
I don't know if that's there.
From what I've read out of this McDermott firing, it did not feel like the players in the locker room were like giving up on Sean McDermott.
And they actually like there was a Dion Dawkins tweet where like really looking up to him.
I can't imagine Josh Allen's leaving that game where he's crying at the presser saying he lost that game.
He's like, we got to move on from McDermott.
And I wonder how much Josh Allen was involved in the decision when Steve Bishotti, the owner of the Ravens, was asked about that.
He said he got his opinion from Lamar Jackson, but he had no power in the decision.
I wonder where that power-opinion split was with Josh Allen.
I'm sure we'll get more reporting.
And I think if there is one clear ding in the McDermott resume and something that I think is a credit to maybe why you do move on...
is when you look at, there are 13 teams since 2019 that have had at least 50 opponent drives in the playoffs.
So 13 teams that have faced offenses of 50 drives or more.
Of those teams, where do you think McDermott ranked in success rate allowed, EPA per drive allowed, and points per drive allowed?
11th or worse in all three metrics.
