Listening to Allen’s post game. A little bit of throwing throwing Dorsey under the bus. Not crazy. But subtle. A little odd when asked about specific players or multiple drives, and a lot of “I don’t know. I’ll have to watch the film. I’m just trying to run the play that’s called” Certainly standard speak, but it’s also pretty common for a QB to go “well they did a good job of rolling the safety over top.” Or “we tried to move Gabe around but they did a good job of taking him away” but “I don’t know is weird.” WGR is super angry just yelling at clouds. Saying nobody was getting open, which is WILDLY INCORRECT. Also upset they drafted Kincaid. I don’t know why I got the urge to listen. I never do. But all these guys on WGR have some of the lowest football IQ.

At least there are 70 hockey games left for the Sabres to improve on .500

I spit my beer out.

I honestly don’t think that’s worth a challenge/TO at this point in the game. It’s 10 yards and the clock stops anyways. Bad call McD

My GF just came downstairs, looked at the TV and said “well at least nobody died”.

I hope we don’t force the ball down field and go 3 and out here.

Salary cap implications. Von more than others. We’re $41M over the cap after the latest trades with 25 FA this offseason and I real rookies to step in. We just aren’t in a position to cut everybody and replace everybody.

10 points from the offense is a big problem. Some is on Dorsey. Some isn’t. He has his own issues, but he also bears the brunt of a few years of frustrations. Moving on may be best. But he isn’t THE problem here.

I don’t quite know where to go. I think McD has been a decent CEO. But there have been issues. Ive been critical of Beane. Our roster is old and expensive. It will take a year or two to dig out of. Dorsey is sometimes great. But also not. Josh is physically gifted. Wildly talented. But erratic and not great feel feel at times. I think it I s time to rebuild this thing from protection around Josh and out. Fans won’t love it, but it will take a few seasons to get Von, Tre, Hyde/Poyer, Knox, and Morse off the roster and have reasonable replacement. And it will force Josh to make some more plays with his arm, and may exacerbate some things. But it may be a necessary evil. Otherwise we just become Rodgers and GB.

The monkeys paw curls… Cincinnati gets 6.

We will get 6 and you’ll like it!

7 point here changes the entire game.

Defense is holding up after the half. We have have got to sustain a drive or two and put some points up to rest them and get us back in this thing.

Josh is maybe the most talented QB in the leagues certainly the most gifted. But man, I’d love to watch a game these days where somebody mentions him going the extra mile like I hear from Mahomes or Burrow.

I think there have been a number of posters that have eluded to referring being a major reason we’re losing this gamers I don’t have much patience for that. It looks to me like the Buffalo Bills are the main reason the Buffalo Bills are losing this game.

Right? I don’t mind the live complaint about this call or that call. But this isn’t a team that’s losing because of flags. I am not sure if this is the worst ref’ed game today let alone this season. We’ve gotten some very favorable calls the last few years including this one. When the league throws/doesn’t throw a flag that costs this team a meaningful game like that no call on DPI with the Rams, I’ll be the first one at the league office with my molotov cocktail.

Agreed. I’m all for complaining about the refs. But when you are losing on merit I have approximately zero patience for over arching conversations that blame the refs.

We keep playing this soft zone and rushing 5-6. We could use some more physicality, but we’re also not helping ourselves.

That was way quicker than I ever remember Joe. Has Rodgers been sharing his Free Willy juice?

Face mask didn’t help. But yes, the frozen rope allows for a lot of wow moments. But it also makes some catches super difficult.

Woof. Couple shots at Josh there for CC and Tirico.

I’ve been a McD supporter but he seemed a bit shook there on the sideline.

Running a curl/comeback isn’t low percentage. That will be one to see what was going on there. And what was available across the field. I’m tempted to think that Josh thought “1 on 1 on the outside, take the shot”. And Gabe thought “take the high percentage play, get the first and stop the clock by going OOB”. I think both are right, that decision is based in the offense; which I don’t think any of us have even a sliver of an idea of what to do there situationally.

If Diggs wants to stick it out here or if he wants to GTFO, his best approach is to play nice with the team. Act a fool and he might end up with NYG for a 3rd.

It’s time to restock the shelves and rebuild this team from Allen and the OL out. It will take about 2-3 years to shed some of the current contracts and get replacements up to speed. But baring this team catching fire, and the offense consistently playing borderline historically, I don’t know where we go without shedding some of our age.
