I kind of agree, although perhaps keep him as run game coordinator and find a passing game specialist. My thoughts are that an offense should be dictating to the defense and not the other way around. Go spread formation and run a hurry up offense to gas those defensive players and run misdirection plays to also wear them out.

We unquestionably have an injury problem, and the defensive players need to talk to the O-line players to find out what they are doing to stay healthy. Injuries are not the head coaches or GM's fault. Injuries are part of the game, while some teams accrue more than others for some reason. As bad as the Buffalo defense was in the first half, it was all on Buffalo OC Joe Brady to set up a scheme that didn't involve getting his QB killed. Other teams face a ton of blitzing and pass rush pressure, and they don't fold like lawn chairs. They can beat a blitz by using quick passes, changing the play at the line of scrimmage, or employing effective blocking schemes to protect the quarterback. Quarterbacks with good decision-making skills can also exploit the defense's weaknesses by recognizing the blitz and adjusting their plays accordingly. Instead of quick outs or max protection, this OC kept calling for deep drop-back passes of 5-7 step drops to hit a big play. If I ever see a WR screen to Shakir, I'll want to strangle someone. Just keep handing off on first down over and over.

What bothers me is that game could have been easily won, even though the defense was really bad in the first half. “They had 12 hits on Josh, eight sacks. That’s not a healthy formula right there,” McDermott said. “It’s not a healthy way to play or a healthy way to keep our quarterback healthy through the remainder of the season.” We ALL held our breath when he went down in that game. If I ever see Joe Brady in RL I will give him some of my mind. That could have been the season-ender or even career.

I disagree, as we all saw what can happen with proper game plans against the Chiefs and Bucs. As others have pointed out, and even McD stated that the play calling was off... McDermott added, “I believe in our offensive staff,” but it’s clear that the offensive scheme needs to get better. Right now, the whole Bills’ offense revolves around expecting Allen to make plays, even when he’s under relentless pressure. That’s not a winning formula.

Buffalo QB Coach Ronald Curry an option to be the offensive passing game planning assistant? Marc Lubick Buffalo Passing Game Specialist/Game Management. Looks like he isn't getting it done or needs more involvement with the current play calling. No idea what the answer is...

McDermott has a tough decision to make regarding Joe Brady, and if he were a past OC, I'm certain he would be taking over the offensive play-calling.

This upcoming offseason, see If Buffalo can hire Tom Moore away from Tampa, as he was Payton Manning's mentor. If that's a no, then perhaps Jim Caldwell, who is a senior assistant at Carolina.

They still are as they simply need a better offensive game planner/play caller. With that, the Bills beat up the Falcons, Texans, and Dolphins. Probably even the Patriots. This getting blown out By bad teams has gotta end...Miami and Atlanta had no business even being on the same field, as it should have been easy wins.

Three firsts...DO EEEET

I would think...rage?

Last week it was, this week not so much. Now the Bills have ten days to endure before the next game. If they continue to allow Joe Brady to call plays and the Buffalo defense plays like that in the first half, they might not win against the Steelers, Patriots or Eagles. 7-4 might turn out to be 10-7 if they are lucky.

It's not "can", it's "will" they? Bills fans keep talking about WRs, but this and other games like it are on the Buffalo offensive coordinator in my view.

From the mouth, McDermott added, “I believe in our offensive staff,” but it’s clear that the offensive scheme needs to get better. Right now, the whole Bills’ offense revolves around expecting Allen to make plays, even when he’s under relentless pressure. That’s not a winning formula. “They had 12 hits on Josh, eight sacks. That’s not a healthy formula right there,” McDermott said. “It’s not a healthy way to play or a healthy way to keep our quarterback healthy through the remainder of the season.” https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/sean-mcdermott-josh-allen-takes-too-many-hits-weve-got-to-figure-that-out You know, back in the day, QB Dan Marino was the guy that most other QBs envied because of his quick release and precision passes. Although the Buffalo Bills had his number because of his tendencies. Because of that, they knew if it was going to be a pass or run, and once they knew the signals, they also knew the play. A big reason why he didn't get past the Buffalo Bills very often. This season's Bills offense reminds me of that, and if crappy teams like Miami and Atlanta have figured it out. If Buffalo had an OC who knew what he was doing, the Buffalo Bills might be undefeated right now. Never did I think that an OC could turn our Superman back into Clark Kent. This jackass of an OC did just that in front of the world!

What a lot of Bills fans don't get is that the offense the Buffalo Bills run is the very same one that won so many Super Bowls for the Patriots, and in fact, they are still using it. The Patriots didn't have a dominant #1 WR for quite a few seasons, and they faced the same sort of defenses that Buffalo has faced this year. The difference being that they would just move the chains to get first down after first down and then hit Gronk in the end zone. Joe Brady attempts to call deep passes to receivers that aren't open with a line that doesn't give Allen enough time to take 5-7 step drop-backs. This same problem occurred against the crappy Atlanta Falcons and Miami Dolphins. McD needs to make a change, and it isn't benching Keon Coleman!

The problem with Diggs was that he faded at the end of the season, and in the last few playoff games, he was basically useless. Many here wanted Buffalo to sign DK Metcalf for 30 mill per, and look at what he's doing in Pittsburgh: 8 targets, 5 receptions for 49 yards. That a 30 million dollar player, and he has had games like this most of the season. Ja'Marr Chase stated he wants out of Cincy, and is tired of all the losing.
