The coaching staff and the GM have run out of steam in Buffalo. It happens. It's likely time to move on, if only for philosophical reasons. I've said for years that I'm fine with moving on with McDermott because it doesn't make sense to having a revolving door at OC with a generational QB. He's a good coach, but they've made their run and come up short. Time to move on. I feel similarly about Beane now. He made a lot of very arrogant comments about the WR room and it has absolutely come back to bite him in the butt. He doubled down not making a trade to salvage the season, and now we've got a bipolar offense that relies almost entirely on Allen to bail them out of bad playcalling and poor talent. I hate to sound defeatist. They could still make a run, I just don't expect it. A change is needed.

Ouch. Too close to home. (I'm actually more active than a lot of other elder millennials, I love playing sports)

It seems cruel to dangle this out there.

I played O line in high school and have two bad rotator cuffs, put me in coach

He and Joe are the best content on WGR. They both had some really good, level headed takes this morning that I think are questions worth asking.

Can’t wait to see them start holding tryouts because our backups backups backup is on IR

I meant more intellectually lazy, I agree with what you're saying.

I think the Brady (and the rest of the Bills coaching staff to a lesser degree) have a real hubris problem. They think that no matter what they can out-execute the other team, even when being painfully shown that it isn't working. The Bills line up and do what they're going to do and it doesn't ever seem to adapt with what the opposing defense has been showing. Every content creator and analyst who watches football professionally talk about how predictable the Bills are. The 4th and 27 play was the only playcall the entire game I thought to myself "Wow, didn't expect that". On third downs where they pass and it's less than 8-10 yards, it's always a mesh concept. The Bills have obvious tells with who is on the field, and in spite of that they never break tendency and do something different. They just line up and do what they're gonna do because we have Allen and they don't. It's lazy and points to an ego issue in the coaching room, in my opinion anyways.

I can't help but think that if all the guys we sign are underperforming, that's on the coaching staff. Either the scheme fit isn't right or it's too complicated for them to process quickly. Either way this is becoming ridiculous. Poona Ford and Tim Settle leave Buffalo and became major contributors almost overnight to their respective teams. It's time to seriously look inward at the organization and figure out why guys are so hot and cold in this system.

Yeah I can’t agree there. Look back at those sacks and you can see that there’s almost never anyone even remotely open. It looked like Allen got through 3 reads before getting sacked on a couple of those. This is on coaching and utilization of the WRs. There were almost zero answers for the pressure all night long. That’s coaching and just getting outclassed.

Thank you, I almost screamed at that play call.

They threw at Johnson, tactical error on the Texans part.

Watch them walk it down the field just by throwing to wherever Tre White is. Ingram should be playing over him

You mean another DT who got immediately better after leaving the Bills. It’s a scheme problem.

There isn’t a QB in the league who do anything with this line play

I don’t think so, if it was it was by inches.

Brady might be the worst situational play caller in the NFL. Unbelievable.

There’s no evidence this season that he’d be able to get open, but all right.

As a kid who had a constantly disappointed father, you get used to it lol.

What would Coleman be providing that they don’t have tonight? A guy to not fight for a jump ball?

Barring a miracle, this game is going to be a microcosm of our season. Hurt defense, anti-creative offense,Allen the only guy going the extra mile to try and make a play. Again, not even mad. Just disappointed.

It’s not shocking that our best plays tonight have been centered around the RBs, we need to throw to them. The lack of creativity is astounding.

This is pathetic. Allen getting pressured immediately every play

NFL teams shouldn’t look this lost unless you’re the Jets. I’m sorry but it’s unbelievable how mismanaged, undisciplined, and unprepared the Bills have looked.

There’s something fundamentally wrong here. Allen is literally running for his life and our defense couldn’t stop a stiff breeze right now. Im not even mad, this is just baffling. The Bills are so two faced.
