They have looked slightly lacking intensity. We coulda done with the Lions being this week because I think that game would have required that intensity. This game feels a bit like a mini mental break between sealing the division and testing themselves against Detroit. -

And if it was on anyone it was Josh not Mack. Mack had 2 yards on his guy abd had to slow down. -

Kincaid and Coleman both listed as inactive today (belinda)

I'm at the point where I think the offense benefits from the downfield threat of Knox. But Keon being a no go again sucks. -
Should Bills Draft a Back-up QB? Who?
GunnerBill replied to NORWOODS FOOT's topic in The Stadium Wall
Oh I am not sure I'm looking at a developmental guy to be any more than a practice squad guy. At least initially. That's why I'm talking about taking someone in the 6th or 7th round... but in draft where there is some depth and you might get a guy who another year may go earlier day 3. -
Should Bills Draft a Back-up QB? Who?
GunnerBill replied to NORWOODS FOOT's topic in The Stadium Wall
In theory you want a young developmental guy. But you take a shot at one in a good QB class IMO where someone who could go round 4 in a bad year might be there in round 6 say. This class does not appear to be that. -
I think there is a difference between McDermott wanting Daboll to run it more and what I am talking about which is asking the Quarterback to be responsible for reading the field and run a proper offense. They didn't hide him with a ton of half field reads and gimmicks. It's fair that not putting him in a heavy run scheme was part of that too... but I don't think McDermott was ever advocating for a heavy run scheme. The Bills are still one of the top neutral situation passing teams by the numbers. He just wanted Dabes to run it more than when he'd go like 12 passes in a row etc (and to be clear I had no issue with Dabes doing that).

He allowed the offensive coordinator to not baby Josh. He let them put a lot on the Quarterback from day one in an effort to speed up the mental development where he had a distance to travel coming from Wyoming to the NFL in terms of defenses faced. He also, contrary to everyone's expectations, did not force Josh to play small ball. You can argue that's happened some in the last 12 months, but 7 years in. Indeed after the Cleveland debacle in 2019 where Josh had got so in his own head about making mistakes he was doing a passable impression of a white Tyrod Taylor out there holding the ball forever it was McDermott who called him in on the Monday and told him to play free and cut loose and they'd live with the consequences. Was he involved in Josh's technical refinement? No. But he was big in the mental aspect of how they managed Josh those first 2 or 3 years IMO. I famously did not like the pick. But even as a Josh Allen sceptic my take in the draft process was if you pick him you have to take your lumps with him. Trying to force fit him into a safe offense as a game manager would have been a disaster. And I think there are NFL coaches who would have been guilty of that. Josh Allen's talent and work ethic are the main reasons Josh Allen is great. But the organisation did a good job of identifying and developing him. Even to the framework they put around him from year 2 onwards (the offense Beane built for him as a rookie was by the GM's own admission "awful")
