HappyDays

Jerry Sullivan has definitely made an ass of himself before this but this is the first time he made comments like that. If I were put in that situation I would have been pretty shocked and probably not handled it well. Call out Jerry Sullivan as much as you want for his idiocy but let's leave the amateur podcast hosts out of it. This kind of thing sometimes bleeds into personal lives. They didn't ask for this.

This is way too far for me. They were clearly immediately uncomfortable and tried to awkwardly salvage what he said. I think most people put in that situation would fumble their way through. The best they can do is apologize and distance themselves from the dumbass that made the comment, which is what they did. This is an actual example of cancel culture, where people even indirectly involved with an idiot catch stray bullets.

The biggest positive I'm taking away from Allen asking for Beasley to come back is that he knows underneath throws are smart plays and he just wants someone there that he can trust to be on the same page with him on those passes.

Most importantly you could tell Allen trusted him. As others have said Allen got used to having a dependable slot receiver on 3rd down and those conversions really add up over the course of the game. Maybe if McKenzie makes his two 3rd down catches against the Jets we end up winning 30-12 and the talk about the offense taking a step back looks silly. Momentum swings happen fast.

For once I'm glad McKenzie is laughing it up because if he thought seriously about this signing for half a second he would realize it means Allen has lost trust in him. All offseason McDermott talked up McKenzie's opportunity to prove he could handle an increased role and, well, here we are.

This signing also makes it clear that losing Crowder was a much bigger deal than this board realized. Fans forgot how many 3rd down conversions we got from Allen throwing quick passes to him early in the year. Yeah he wasn't perfect but he gave us some version of the 2019/2020 Beasley and McKenzie has given us none of that.

But everyone knows the offense isn't at the level it was at earlier in the season. We can see it, plain as day. Allen is masking a lot of issues.

I'm not calling them busts, I'm just saying none of the additions we made on offense have met expectations. It's maybe not fair to expect much from rookies, but in conjunction with the other failures it all adds up to a big disappointment.

I wish I was more excited about this. Imagine being told back in August that we would be forced to sign John Brown and Cole Beasley off the street just to try and get some kind of mojo back on offense.

No, I'm just saying it's a bad indicator of where the offensive personnel is at right now. We added Saffold. We added Crowder. We drafted Cook and Shakir. We extended Knox. We left the door open for Davis and McKenzie and Spencer Brown to step into bigger roles. And literally every one of these moves has been a bust. I mean it's really kind of crazy when you think about it.

If we're being honest this is a desperation move. It's not a good sign when your franchise QB is asking for washed up WRs to be added to the roster just so he has someone he can trust to throw the ball to. If Beasley can catch the ball at the 1st down marker and fall down, fine. It's just disappointing that every new player we added on offense has been underwhelming at best and every existing player we expected to step into a bigger role has failed to meet the moment.

I'm all for players keeping it light but he's coming off a bad game where he singlehandedly killed two drives and he's goofing off about it. He's never struck me as someone that is totally locked into his profession, which at this level is unacceptable. Sure go on podcasts and do all that but don't reject accountability. A player that is 100% focused on bringing their game to another level would never pull this kind of crap.

I don't ever post this kind of thing but I have it on good authority that Beasley and McDermott talked last week. I never mentioned it here because I didn't know if it would mean anything, but in conjunction with the rumors that he flew into Buffalo last night now I think this is actually going to happen. Maybe he apologized for the way he acted on his way out, that's the only way I could see McDermott letting him back in.

There was a play on our first TD drive I think. Something like 2nd and 5 where we just had Davis run underneath, catch an easy pass and run for the 1st down. It stuck out to me because it was such an easy completion for a free 1st down and I feel like we never see those in our offense. It feels like our offense requires the WR to just beat their man and if they don't the play fails.

I was thinking today, I can't remember the last time we scored a deep passing TD. There was the one to Diggs against the Pats that got called back for holding. I can't remember one before that, not since the Chiefs game. And I know it can't be a talent issue because Diggs and Davis are both excellent deep ball receivers. So I think that missing element is just a function of how defenses are playing us now. But in the process of taking away deep completions, defenses are leaving a lot of easy yards for the taking underneath. It's on Dorsey to scheme us up to take advantage of that. So I agree that our talent on offense is underwhelming but we have enough talent to move the ball better than we have the past few weeks if Dorsey plays with the right philosophy. Does he get bored with short throws or something? We killed the Pats with it and then went away from it against the Jets.

This is the final result, in order, of every Chiefs offensive possession starting from 3:30 left in the 2nd quarter: Interception Interception Kneeldown to end the 1st half Punt Punt Touchdown Punt Interception The grass is always greener.

He's also just 22 years old and only played one year as a starting DE in college. Nowhere close to his ceiling yet. He has elite physical traits, elite instincts, and you can tell he's a very cerebral player. I think next year he'll be in the conversation for top 10 at his position.

He's had no issues with any of this stuff since the last 2 minutes of the 1st half of the Cleveland game. The offense as a whole has been in a slump for a few games but Allen is not anywhere near the top of the list of reasons why. In fact he's the main reason we're scoring points at all.

My theory is the Bills were the offseason darlings so we all came into the season with ridiculous expectations, especially after how close we came to winning it all last year. Then we actually blew out our first two opponents so the expectations got even higher. But realistically this is how the season of a Super Bowl winner usually looks.

Smart series from Tua there.

I don't want to make any wild suggestions, but maybe the Chargers should get some kind of offense going here? I feel like 50% of their pass plays are play action rollouts. I think Miami might have those ones figured out by now.

No? I'm just saying he had a bad game. He dropped 50% of his targets and there were all easy catches.

If Vrabel gets fired he'll have a new head coaching job the following day. The Titans don't really have a lot of talent, it was a miracle that he got them to the #1 seed last year. Then they traded away their best offensive player. If they axe him he might secretly be grateful.

He unofficially had 6 targets. Their was a defensive holding on one of his 3 drops which wiped the play off the stat sheet.
