BREAKING NEWS: Sean McDermott receives scrutiny for using absurd 9/11 analogy in 2019 meeting

 

Sean McDermott, the head coach of the Bills, came under fire on Thursday after a biting exposé by Tyler Dunne of Go Long TD exposed a tone-deaf and foolish speech he gave to his players in 2019. In it, he advised that his team should unite in the same way the hijackers did on September 11, 2001.

“He told the entire team they needed to come together… He cited the hijackers as a group of people who were all able to get on the same page to orchestrate attacks to perfection,” wrote Dunne, who also noted, “Seven sources confirmed the story.”

 

That’s an incredibly awful analogy, and it was met with disapproval.

Dunne said, “Nobody could fathom the insanity.”

His ridiculous 9/11 parallel is far more outrageous than any of the several obscene revelations about the McDermott era in Buffalo that are shared in the three-part series.

According to ESPN’s Alaina Getzenberg, McDermott stated on Thursday that he immediately apologized to attendees of the 2019 meeting for any miscommunication he may have caused during his lecture about the value of communication.

The team’s poor performance this season may be somewhat explained by the portrayal of McDermott throughout the entire show as a clown who is unable to relate to his players.

Prior to the season, Buffalo (6-6) was one of the favorites to win the Super Bowl, but they are now a remote playoff possibility. After a 24–22 loss to Denver, the team fired offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey, a move that Dunne claims was anticipated by several within the organization even before the season started.

“That’s why one coach — in June — began by asking a simple question,” Dunne said. “‘If they don’t succeed this year? What is ownership’s relationship to Sean? You know who will be the first person he serves up if they fail next year? Ken Dorsey,'” the coach remarked.

It’s not hard to guess who will be dismissed next if the Bills don’t make the playoffs.
