A lesson learned? It is not all about Defense
Billsfan1972 replied to Billsfan1972's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Can we agree it is not a winning strategy???? -
We're turning Allen into Tyrod
Billsfan1972 replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Not elite...... And yes the Bills refuse to see what they have on Offense can do based on how conservative they are. -

Yep here we go again........ Expect little & I guess you are happy..... The Offense will be good in 2022 I guess and then we'll know if JA is the QB of the future???? Throw him in to the fire, give him weapons and see what they have. -

I was using Chicago as an example of a team that thinks their team (like Buffalo) can win 12 games based on Defense alone. Not comparing the offenses at all except for the fact that neither of them have much confidence in them or seem to know how to best use them. No one gives the Offense a pass..... If anything they are screaming for the OC & McClappity to unleash the offense and see what JA has. It is those who were spouting that this was a top 3 defense and that the offense just needs to score 14 (and if needed an offensive explosion of 20) a game & not make mistakes and they'd be a top tier team that had me getting upset. -

So before the bye week this Defense was so good, that all the Offense needed to do was ground & pound, make no mistakes & 14-20 points would be enough to win week after week. Too lazy to find those posts, but there were many. Now it is back to worrying about JA....... You guys crack me up..... -

Again the Bills need to figure out whether they have a franchise qb. Is Allen Drew Brees or Blake Bortles. Jacksonville spun it's wheels thinking they had a an Elite defense and could win with Blake Bortles (who at least did have 300 yard passing games). It was a huge mistake & now they are starting over...... I think Allen could be very good, but watching this offense and how Daboll & McClappy built & run it, makes me wonder if we'll ever know. BTW look too at the Bears & Trubinsky and expecting the D to allow 10 points or less...... -

You can not win in this league thinking 14-10 will do it, which is how the coaching staff play calls..... -

No the Bills have not been exciting this year. Every game has been pretty much a slog to watch, unless you are a Bills fan. They do not play exciting/fun to watch football. They have a mindset to play 14-10 games...... And no not fun to watch. -

Yep waiting for those to tell me..... "I don't care about the offense or watching an exciting/enjoyable game...... All I want is a win and 10-7 is perfectly fine"..... -

Was so tired of being shouted down when I and others say they want to see what the offense has & that 14-10 wins are not sustainable. This team was 5-1 and I was upset with how they play & the coaching philosophy and today it was on full display. 5 ugly wins and today no sense of purpose until the third quarter. The drive to get it to 17-13 was the only time the Bills looked really in-sync. I want the Bills to come out wanting to throw for 300+ & score 30+ points. Been a long time since that was the mindset (yes scored over 40 vs. NYJ & Miami last year)...... -

The Offense needs to play with a purpose. They don't. The Bills need to see what they have in Josh Allen & play with purpose to score 30 points. They don't, were down and when they needed a stop didn't get it and then looked completely lost, which is pretty much what I expected seeing McClappy's offensive coaching philosophy. -
Gameday Thread Eagles @Bills 2nd Half
Billsfan1972 replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Well at least we get to see Josh throw the ball..... As I keep saying about the D..... Good, but can't expect 17-13 every week. First half again that game plan. -
Barnwell Blind Stats - Allen and Goff
Billsfan1972 replied to inthebuff's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
And I want to know whether Allen really is the 29th best QB in the NFL. I want him top 10 and this is what drives me crazy is that thew Bills offensive philosophy is that he is #29 so design an offense for that. You don't use the 7th draft pick to select the 29th best QB!!!!! BTW I think he is top 10. -
R Talbot (via ESPN) - bills on the hunt for a WR
Billsfan1972 replied to Reed83HOF's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yep another poster thinking 14-10 wins is the way to go..... Thankfully I can PVR games & channel surf, because while they are winning, the games are not particularly fun to watch. Ughhhhhh. -
How is it pass first, when the team never throws for 300? The Bills are 21st in the league passing..... They have played the #1, 8, 14, 28, 30 & 32 Defenses...... Philadelphia is 18th. Should have piled up the points & yards in 3 of them.

Some QB Metrics from the 2018 QB Draft
Billsfan1972 replied to RocCityRoller's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No this is a coaching issue..... I blame the schemes & coaching 75%, JA 25%...... Sorry my imaginary 300 yard threshold is my measuring point and can't believe the Bills have gone 40 games. 29!!!!! QB's have done it already this year....... -
Some QB Metrics from the 2018 QB Draft
Billsfan1972 replied to RocCityRoller's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I am an Allen fan because he is a Bill & I want him to succeed. And yes he has been very good in the 4th & again IO blame the first 3 on the Bills game plan and their "The team is built on Defense" attitude. I'm looking at the QB's you've noted and they were given the keys to succeed. Peyton they hung their hat on, Brady was a 6th round pick, Brees was selected 32nd. Favre 33rd...... As the #7 pick the Bills need to see what he can do for 4 quarters, not just the Fourth!!!!! -
Fourth Quarter Scoring vs. the first three
Billsfan1972 replied to Billsfan1972's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's not a good game plan long-term and that is the concern. The idea of "keeping the game close & we can turn it on when we have to" is certainly not what the top teams in the NFL play for. -
Fourth Quarter Scoring vs. the first three
Billsfan1972 replied to Billsfan1972's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The Bills realize they need points in the 4th, vs. the other three quarters where they'd be happy if it was 0-0...... Sorry I'm down on how they run the Offense. -
Or as I said I blame it on McD's play the game between the 20's and rely on the Defense & Daboll's weak play calling.......
