Dennison doesn't make personnel decisions bud. But anyways.

Obviously, he needs to recognize the personnel available to him and adjust but in Dennison's defense, what team doesn't have an actual backup running back? And with how often Shady gets "knicked up?" Pretty ridiculous.

He doesn't have to. That's the beauty of America.

Tyrod Taylor WITHOUT his garbage time vs. the Jets over the past two games. 239 yards passing 9 sacks 1 INT 2 FUM (1 lost) 1 TD That is the entire Jets game (minus last 6:42 which was garbage time) and the entirety of what he played in New Orleans. 30th in passing offense. 24th in touchdowns. 27th in first downs. 24th in yards per attempt. That's awful.

Abysmal. For reference, Dougie's team has 35 sacks. Top 10 all over 25.

If they had 6 in one game, that means they've had a total of 8 sacks in 8 games...

Past few games? We're 2nd to last in sacks. No edge rushers to speak of and a very weak linebacking corps.

Weird that people valued a guy that was barely playing to begin with.

I love how everyone keeps throwing around garbage time. I'm pretty sure Taylor saw a bunch of garbage time in the Saints game and he was still going no where. So even there, you have an apples to apples comparison and Peterman did more in two drives than Tyrod did the whole game.

McDermott doesn't care if you trust him, he only asks that you trust The Process.

Doesn't matter, they can control what they can control. Right now they've got a guy coming off the bench that stands to help the team win. And hey, if the defense doesn't have to play for 43 out of the 60 minutes, they might hold up.

Doesn't matter where you're picked, once you're in, you're in. Peterman has probably been out practicing Tyrod and certainly looks poised to outplay him. To watch the last two games and think we are contending for anything but a top 10 pick is asinine.

Doesn't matter if they have a book or not, what matters is if they can use it to stop you. Every team knows HOW to stop even Brady, but it's matter of executing that plan. Very few have been able to.

So little, if any?

I'm not buying it. Every other Bills player offered the same or more money in the offseason bolted. He wasn't going to be a starter anywhere else, that's why he stayed. We were the only ones willing to say "You'll come into camp as the starter." I don't care what the media says, he just isn't good.

He shopped around last year and came up snake eyes. Now with even more terrible performances under his belt people think he will be in the mix to start somewhere else? Get the fork out.

Too many excuses for Tyrod. And this system is the system he learned behind Flacco. This should have been fairly easy for him and I would bet that Dennison was not even McDemott's first choice for OC, it was probably more about giving Tyrod an opportunity to succeed. Tyrod has never looked comfortable as a passer. His decision making is too slow, always has been. The line hasn't been the problem in my eyes. They aren't great but there are plenty of plays where Tyrod is getting more than 5 seconds. Another big thing is you never see Tyrod check at the line. A lot of QBs recognize pressure and make the adjustments at the line. Nate might fail miserably, but he could also look above average. He compares to Alex Smith but I think his football IQ is higher than Alex's was at the same point in their careers.

He can't read defenses. Even after 7 years in the NFL.

There's two things we can fix right now. Start Peterman, blitz on defense.

My only hope is that Peterman is playing by then. The Pats D isn't great so at least we'd be able to maybe keep it looking somewhat close. But if Tyrod is still starting I probably will have stopped watching anyways. I can only take so much now that I'm older. Definitely other things to do if they're just going to get destroyed. As far as I can tell, the Chargers and Colts games are the only two games we'll likely be able to win. Pats and Phins will probably stomp us twice.

Statistically, this year, if we don't force at least 2 turnovers we pretty much have zero chance of winning. And the Bengals game is a prime example of it not being enough when your offense is horrendous. I am preparing for an epic beat down from the Pats, the likes of which we haven't seen since the 55-10 debacle.

I wanted to buy in, I did. But as I suspected, this is more of the same. If Milano and Peterman aren't playing then this staff really is tanking.

Well then where were all the sacks when Marcel was here? Everyone keeps correlating everything to Dareus, so show me some proof. Where was the production when he was here? If we weren't giving up 100 yards or more on the ground, it was because we were giving up over 300 in the air. He did not make this defense good and his departure did not make it worse. It was already bad. I'm not blaming him for the defense being bad, it's clearly scheme and a lack of talent. My point is it did not get worse when he left, we just happened to play teams that can run the ball. And the Jags happened to play teams that can't run the ball against anyone, he didn't magically take them from worst to first all by himself. But anyways, I'm over it. I don't blame fans here for not knowing anything about football, the Bills are a terrible example. But trying to sell Dareus as the most important player on the team is just laughable.

But I thought we traded Dareus in week 8?

DT isn't nearly as important as having edge rushers. Huges and Lawson are probably the worst starting tandem in the entire league. Add to the fact that Kyle is basically done and you have a very poor situation, with or without Dareus.
