It seems to me the team is in disarray. The performances lately have been bipolar. I will have to just watch the games and see what unfolds. No way I can predict what will happen with any certainty.

So he is the new "spreadsheet guy showing options". Thanks.

Exactly. Beane job (if he wants to keep it) is to find more.

I thought he was more the contract negotiator.

You bring in new blood. Pegula is the only one to change out the 2 at top. If that doesn't happen then it's up to Beane and McDermott to change things. Fans might not want to hear that, but those are the facts.

Overdorf still does the contracts, and his boys do the spreadsheets. Ultimately all decisions are Brandon Beane's.

Yes, on the lack of self-scouting. To do that properly the D has to point out the O's issues and vice versa. I'm wondering if all this "we're a family" stuff is stopping that by not wanting to "point fingers". If they can't do that right now, they risk losing Josh and the players this season. I swear to God, my 93-year-old mother is bitching about the playcalling. She said this morning, "why do they keep doing the same things that don't work". LOL, THAT is a problem.

McDermott is where the buck stops BUT maybe he should be rethinking some of his position coaches too. Tim Settle played great. Where was he when he was here? It's almost like the coaching in areas are regressing players. If McDermott is not addressing stuff like this vociferously, then he needs to go too. This is coming from an avid supporter of his.

Absolutely. I want to know if the position coaches are bringing this up (they should be seeing it too) or are they being ignored or just silent. When this is so obvious to me, how can they not see it! How can it just continue? It's crazy.

Josh should not be calling the plays. He has enough to do. They need a competent OC. IMO

Everyone in the organization needs to take a bite of this crap sandwich. Even Josh (who admittedly is the least to blame) needs to be accountable. I will just bring up an example that yesterday's game shed a light on. Josh does not like to do quick throws and hasn't his whole career with maybe the exception of Beasley. The O sure needed a bunch of them last night. Brady and O have to make schemes like that available for times like this. That is just one thing that shows the disconnect of the team in general. There isn't even anyone in the wings that could take over for Brady and that is on McDermott. Brady's playcalling obviously has so many "tells" that the opposing Ds might as well have the call sheet. He also has zero sense of stringing the plays together to keep the D honest. It really is bad. The deep handoff on 4th and 1 make me just shake my head and say, "He has to go". Whether Beane/McDermott around next year is an offseason question. Right now, the offense has to get fixed in 10 days.

One game at a time.

YES!

Go Bills!
