    So wrong. Allen is a a big problem right now. Turnovers are the biggest deciders of games. Allen turns it over more than anyone in the league.

     

    He's a Top 3 quarterback who isn't quite playing at that level despite leading the NFL in touchdowns.

     

    But that's a short-term problem.

     

    Coaching is a much bigger problem and much more to blame for the 5-5 record than our elite quarterback making a few mistakes.

    So the result is what it is. An inconsistent team led by an inconsistent qb that can’t win a title. 

     

    He consistently scores more touchdowns than anyone. Touchdowns are a good thing. 

     

    In a list of 100 things that has to be fixed with this franchise, Josh Allen is not on the list.

    The GM has no say in HC/Coaching decisions.

     

    The HC reports directly to Terry. The GM reports directly to Terry. It was the same for Whaley and Rex. This is how Pegula structures his operation.

     

    (Personally not a fan)

     

    I have 0 faith in Pegula choosing the right head coach for this franchise.

     

    None. Zip. Zilch.

    I agree... with a qualifier.  

     

    I'd say that Allen is a top-tier QB with the right coaching. 

     

    I think Allen would set records under Andy Reid, for example.  But I don't think every NFL HC or OC would know how to optimize Allen's strengths while minimizing his weaknesses.  

     

    The guy has scored more touchdowns than any other quarterback on the planet since 2019.

     

    He's led his team to more wins than anyone aside from Mahomes during that time frame.

     

    If that's not top-tier QB play, what the hell is?

    100%
     

    Two years ago the special teams coordinator was the scapegoat.

     

    Last year, Leslie.

     

    This year, Dorsey.

     

    McDermott put this staff together. He should be next.

     

    Question is - does Beane stay on and is he the one who fires his partner? Or does Pegula fire them both? Does Pegula have the ballz to do that? I'm skeptical.

    He should.  Cronyism will be his down fall.  All the awful Carolina signings and hires are biting him in the arse. 

     

    I don't think it's cronyism. He's just not talented enough as a HC. He got the most out of his ability, had a good run. Time to move on.

    The bigger issue - Why were they even in that position in the first place?

     

    Because Diggs(of all people) dropped an easy catch on 2nd down which would have made Kincaid's catch on 3rd down an easy 1st down and kept them out of having to go for it on 4th down to begin with.

     

    Cascading issues are the theme with this team.

     

     

    Correct. The offense is a mess. The entire program is stale. 100% indicative of an NFL team that needs a brand new coaching staff.

    Kincaid was open for the first, there.  Defenders are backing away from the LoS to account for the other receivers and Kincaid would have made it.

     

    Short pitches and catches are basic functions of NFL skill players, so I would hope that this isn't too much of an assumption to ask for in playcalling.

     

    Kincaid wasn't the first read in the play that was called, though. It was a three-step drop out of shotgun (such a dumb play call on 4th and 1). Even if Allen decides pre-snap that Kincaid is his first read and Allen throws to him at the end of his drop, the defender likely closes in on time to knock the ball out or tackle Kincaid short of the first. That would be a very risky throw to attempt on a 4th down.

    I find it a struggle to question the entirety of the play when we aren't even operating within the basics. Come at me when Josh looks right, Kincaid is covered and the rest of the field is blanketed. Otherwise the play had a check and an outlet for the defense they were facing. 

     

     

    Where is the check and outlet? If Allen looks right and throws to Kincaid even immediately, Kincaid gets blasted by the LB/Nickel before he even gains the yard for the first down. That's if he catches it.

    Dan orlovsky is an absolute moron every time I see him try to analyze a play lol. Kincaid is clearly going to be absolutely wide open presnap…nothing wrong with the playcall 

     

    he’s literally explaining why teams do line up in shotgun on 4th and 1 when he’s trying to say that it’s dumb 😂. It gives you a wider variety of qb runs/rpo opportunities.  A qb run didn’t happen on this particular play but the defense has to respect it.  
     

    josh flubbed this play and the entire game big time 

     

    You have to be joking.

     

    4th and 1

    Your offense is better under center vs. shotgun

     

    No one is open and Allen is left heaving a prayer while getting tackled...and it's Allen that is to blame?

     

    Just another dumb play call by a dumb offensive coordinator.

    The players decide the captains.

     

    Gabe Davis doesn't come across to me like much of a leader. I was floored when he was named captain. Think that was Josh Allen campaigning for his buddy.

     

    Captain Davis declined to answer questions from the media after the game last night.

     

    What a leader!

    Begs the question. Named a captain?! How on earth does that happen, that this coach gives out that title to (motivate an underperforming player) a player that you think you can will be become a star? At this level of football. Talk about Mickey Mouse. 

     

    The players decide the captains.

    Actually, people were upset that other people jumped all over them for having the audacity to suggest there were points of concern despite being 4-2.  Those people are now pointing out that the aforementioned concerns were since proven perfectly valid and those people that blasted them for it now look foolish.

     

    Nothing to do with my post or the loser who keeps bumping the thread.

    I’m not saying never run, but IMO, when our offense was at its best we were almost always in the Shotgun and JA was slinging the ball around and taking off when it was there.

     

    The stats and analytics say otherwise. Overwhelmingly.
