When the play call comes in for a run to Moss/Singletary, Josh needs to audible out of that play immediately. The Bills OC called two runs on first down of their last two drives in the Red Zone and Moss was stuffed for 0 yards, and Singletary got 1 yard. Those are wasted downs. Also, Josh took a terrible sack.

If a team decided to run the ball 45 times in a game, what would a "good" defensive performance look like? <120 yards and 7 points? I mean how much lower can the bar be for our offense? They got two amazing drive starts in the first half and botched that, and frittered away the last two drives as soon as they got into the Red Zone.

Especially if this Coaching staff stays reverent to always having Sanders (or another veteran FA WR) and Beasley on the field as the #2, #3 WR. We need better WRs for Josh Allen.

I think a game breaking WR is near the top of our need list.

We don’t give ourselves a chance though by benching McKenzie, never using motion, jet sweeps, play action (without that gimmick RPO), no Josh Allen runs in the red zone, we keep putting Zack Moss on the field for some reason, and our Coaches can’t understand that Cole Beasley and Emmanuel Sanders are fading and instead it’s keep Davis snaps low and bench everyone else. Honestly, if Brown plays RT, our best chance is to just go 4-wide, 5-wide.

Well the thing with McDemott is he can’t touch the offense. He’s the reason we love Zack Moss, kicked the tires on Adrian Peterson, insist on guys like Tommy Sweeney being out there, too in Love with Special Teamers only.

Good they should have. Patriots ran 40+ times for 200-yards and 14 points. The Bills D gave the ball back to the offense twice and said win it with a TD and both times the Bills choked.

I think we’re too reverent to Beasley and Sanders. I think those two have faded down the stretch here, and need Davis and McKenzie rotating in half the time and taking snaps away from them. We have no presnap motion, no jet sweeps, no misdirection, no two backs in the backfield, we don’t roll the pocket. We don’t seem to have a good hot read for blitzes. There is never a dump off available. We can’t call a slant to save our lives even with Diggs. We don’t run the ball straight forward, instead it’s always some delayed handoff or gimmick formation. We have no NFL caliber Tight End outside of Knox. Allen presses a lot and he took a horrible sack in the red zone that cost the Bills. He had time tonight. We don’t control the tempo at all, speed up or slow down. How are we getting plays off with 0-1 seconds left on the play clock? Why is Zack Moss STILL GETTING red zone work? Why the hell is he still on this team?

Bills had two drives in the 4th Quarter that would have won them the game and gagged both times. 1st and Goal from the 6 and the Bills OC calls a run to Zack Moss. Then he does it again with Singletary the next drive. Bills can’t figure out how to use Isaiah McKenzie 4 years into his career here, so now we just make him inactive even though 3 games ago against the Jets he showed what he could do with 2-3 touches. No designed Josh Allen runs when he has 28 TDs in his career. For some reason Beasley still getting all these reps even though he’s been a shell of himself 2 of every 3 games this season. Still running out of gimmick formations. Why is Tommy Sweeney on the field?

Because our moronic decision making with this staff. Somehow can’t figure out how to rotate him in the slot, use PRE SNAP MOTION, or send him deep. Patriots are going nowhere. Go celebrate, you’re not beating anyone in the Playoffs.

Yards are yards. This team gave up 200 yards on 40+ carries. They did more than enough to help this putrid offense. Gave the ball back with 5:45 left.

Moss is horrible and the fact he continues to get on the field and waste plays is mind blowing. Yet Isaiah McKenzie is inactive because this staff can’t figure out how to use him.

Agree. This team isn’t sharp when the game is on the line. Penalties in the red zone, protection break downs, horrible play calling. Zack Moss is horrible, yet he continues to get on the field for some reason, while McKenzie sits because our staff can’t figure out how to use him.

He overruns the play constantly. Again, I’ve said it from the beginning with him, he has no instincts.

Daboll deserves to be fired. Calling run plays 1st and Goal from the 6-yard line with 4.6-4.7 Zack Moss. Then we don’t learn our lesson and do it again the next drive with Singletary. Not one designed run to Allen, the guy with 28 career running TDs.

This is where I’m leaning too. Go right after this team, and clamp down with press man to man on the outside.

I’m watching two things: 1. How scared are the Bills going to be going after Mac Jones? A lot of talk about how safe you have to play against the Patriots. 2. Do the Bills utilize McKenzie and Gabe Davis? Where is the motion, where are the jet sweeps, the misdirection?

Well you probably want to start with a running back that is faster than 4.65. We’ve seen Tony Pollard have more juice than Ezekiel Elliott all season. The Bills has the right idea in my mind. Ditching McCoy and drafting two younger replacements. Singletary and Miss have played to their Scouting Reports exactly, they play like 4.65 - 4.70. They’re too slow. The narrative on WGR is why bother even running the ball at all? Josh Allen can and should do it all. But it does make the team one dimensional.

Just had Bar Bill - Medium Hot and Cajun Honey Butter BBQ, they were 7.5/10, solid wings. Picked them up, piping hot right from the takeout counter and ate some in the car. But I have to be honest, O’Neils right by the stadium on Abbott were cooked better as I tried them one day later. And I gotta be more honest, I think Nicholos is my hometown are just as good as those two and they do something a bit different: they add some pizza sauce to the wing sauce. It makes the entire wing just coated in a thick layer of sauce. I am going to try Gabriel’s Gate wings next.

I agree that the Patriots hype has reached barely stomachable levels here. I feel like we go right after the Patriots and Mac Jones. The interesting aspect will be can we get real pressure on Jones? Not just the Epenesa style hurries, but actual contact and him hitting the ground.

Oh fake Patriots fans?

See ya later Jake

Yeah, I haven’t been the biggest Oliver fan that’s for sure, but as long as you don’t ask him to anchor against the rub, he gets into the backfield frequently.

I’d still put WR, but we’ve needed a CB forever.

Well this Coaching Staff treats Sanders and Beasley as if they’re etched in stone as starters. So McKenzie and Davis get scraps left over.
