Also let Josh run. He is being coached to not take the open lanes in front of him

No he didn’t. But Josh clearly has anxiety and is trying to play hero ball because the other guys suck and keep turning the ball over and Dorsey and McDermott are terrible coaches so you end up with Josh pressing. By the way that was a deep out to a 5’7 receiver lol. Like what?

What a dumb post.

Bench Davis I’m so done with this guy

You think the Bills offense didn’t have energy? In what way does it not?

Because pegula has no idea what he’s doing. Look at the sabres mess and look at his first moves with the bills. McDermott is just an average coach and we lucked out with Daboll and Allen pairing which worked out and they’ve been riding that wave since.

Defense wins championships but offense wins regular season games. The offense should be carrying the load right now and they are failing.

We lost important players on D, but it's really no excuse I’d say losing that much talent is definitely an excuse. We are in the reality that we aren’t going to be an average D at this point with them out. Everyone is concerned about the offense though against good teams. They went up tempo to start and scored 7. Then went up tempo end of first half moved the ball down the field and the refs missed an obvious tripping penalty which screwed up the following play as well. Then they call the bogus Intentional Grounding taking the 3 off the board. The Bills moved the ball up and down in the second half and the Bengals needed a Kincaid fumble at the 10 yard line to win by 6 at home. I don’t think this loss was nearly as bad as the Jets, Patriots, Jags losses. There was a clear recipe and formula to success that we can now see for this offense that started with Tampa a little and now Cinci. Now if the coaches scrap it and try to revert back to killing the clock and going run run pass then yea they are stupider than I thought and will be out of a job at the end of the year.

I think you missed my point, it’s not about “waking up”. It’s about finding an identity and system that works for the players. It’s that ah-ya moment. I never saw that moment in any of the 2022 games nor most of the losses in 2023. The light started to go on in the Tampa Bay game but Tampa sucks so the Bills kind of went back into a lull. Cinci is actually good and so was the Tampa 21 team. Both were losses to good teams where they seems to change up that strategy and stuck to that system in the second half and for the rest of the year they played like their hair was on fire. It seemed like Dorsey finally had the lightbulb moment and it was obvious to see in the second half. I never saw that in any of the other games. Could be wrong and they ditch the uptempo 11 personal offense but I think he might just get it now.

How’s that pace going?

Even though the Bills were struggling through the mid part of 2021 they seemed to find their mojo in the second half of that Tampa Game. This Cinci game kind of had that feeling like if they just would have gotten 1 more possession or Kincaid doesn’t fumble in the red zone the Bills may have won this game. What I see now for the first time is a clear identity for this team which I didn’t see even when they were winning early in the season. They have to keep the 11 personnel and go up tempo. They need to incorporate the RPO and get Diggs, Kincaid, Cook, Davis/Shakir going in that order. They need to go pedal to the metal and go for as many points as possible. 1 big problem I had with the game and there were a few but every time we were 2nd or 3rd and short we went tush push and got the first down. They should be saving that for fourth down and using those 2nd or 3rd and shorts to take a shot or do a misdirection play. They were just wasting opportunities there. the defense is still a problem and I get the injuries are a major reason but in the end they did a better job for the most part in the 2nd half. Let’s see if they can keep that up the next few weeks. I have voiced my displeasure of McDermott for years going back to the indi snow game but I will give him and Dorsey the rest of the year to get it together. It’s obvious what they have to do. If they keep losing though because of terrible gameplanning and game mgmt. then they gotta go. If they play hard and are competitive but come up a little short this year because of the defensive injuries then they can have 1 more year otherwise it’s time to throw them in the dump.

The window isn’t closed on Allen but it should have been closed on the coaches after the 13 second loss and for sure after the Cinci loss last year.

Yea Von is clearly not ready despite what Chris collingsworth says

Actually thought it was a catch as it looked like ball bounced off his hand not the ground but yea didn’t think the refs would make the right call as they were horrible all night.

It’s rampant in all the games. Just a race to the bottom. I think the owners know there is a ref problem but not enough of them will speak out because they are making too much money.

It doesn’t seem to come easy to them. Everything is robotic and a lot of the success they have is broken down sandlot football type of plays. I don’t see anyone getting open on time besides diggs and now Kincaid.

I keep getting told by his fans that he needs a big extension though lol.

We can feel vindicated but it doesn’t mean anything is changing. I’ve come to expect no changes. They aren’t firing him this year and I don’t know if they would after next year going into a new stadium. Who knows.

2 bad calls on the colts to end the game. Feel bad for them. NFL has been garbage with officiating for a long time now and they show no desire to fix it.

I’ve been saying this for a while but the pegulas are in over their heads and feel comfortable enough with him and beane at the helm. It’s why they gave them an extension over the summer which was ridiculous.

Hard to get the stink off of blowing something that bad.

He has to be the most unlikeable player ever.

Why is Kincaid not running that route? Especially if Knox’s hand is hurt?

Line not blocking great. And we don’t have a wr except for diggs still.

That’s the part I don’t get. You can have like 4 penalties on 1 team and 1 on the other and they all offset lol.
