  1. There’s not going to be a massive overhaul. Dion and McGovern are under contract until 2026. Mitch Morse has 1 more year. Sans a crazy injury, the only position they might upgrade is RT
  2. If he was the scapegoat they would have fired him a month earlier. Also despite what fans think, McDermott was under NO pressure at all, evidenced by the fact he signed a contract extension months later. There was no need for a scapegoat. IMO I think that McDermott informed Leslie that he was taking over playcalling duties in 2023. He also had brought in Al Holcomb as another senior defensive assistant to potentially take some off Leslie’s plate. Facing what amounts to a demotion and likely some burnout, I think he decided to re-sign. I would be shocked if he’s not a defensive coordinator next season somewhere else
  3. No doubt, he’s really good and I have no idea how he can crank out a show every day. Never really bought into his show until this off-season. I like how he’s obviously a fan from Grand Island, but he can be honest and often times more critical than some in the media. Not having any direct professional ties to the team itself, probably helps too
  4. This take is peak Week 1 overreaction
  5. I don’t know, they can only do so much. Watch some of the open players that Josh bypassed to throw into coverage or the times he took off before the pressure got there. Once the whistle blow, it’s out of their hands.
  6. There’s a lot of time left this season BUT if things go sideways the first domino will be Dorsey at the end of the year and the Bills will bring in an OC to “fix” Josh
  7. I think Dorsey should get some blame but the bigger problem last night was Josh. Dorsey gave him answers and he didn’t talk them
  8. there is truth to this. But I think it’s crazy to give Josh a pass. Josh is as big as problem as Dorsey is, if not more
  9. I don’t think it’s about getting in his face but I do think there is something to the way that Daboll had a calming influence and could reel him back in when necessary. I don’t think Dorsey is like that and that Josh sees him more like a fellow QB than a coach
  10. I didn’t think Tre played poorly at all. He missed one shoe string tackle which happens. Other than that you didn’t notice him in coverage which is a good thing
  11. I’ll give him credit for driving down the field for FG on the last possession. But he also fumbled the ball in Jets territory leading to a deficit. He also threw 3 very bad INTs into coverage that killed drives. Anytime a team loses its really never on one player or coach. But in this case, the majority of blame falls on Allen. Your $250M franchise QB can’t play that bad. Even Josh admitted that If you scroll Twitter you will see a plethora of plays where Josh tries to do too much. He bailed on the pocket when he didn’t need to, threw into coverage when he had open receivers, bypassed running into open spaces to hold onto the ball. As much as I’m not sold on Dorsey. He gave Josh some answers on short hot routes. Josh just didn’t take them.
  12. Everyone takes a backseat to Josh, who single-handedly lost this football game
  13. It’s a waste of a timeout in that situation.
  14. He played a better individual game than Josh Allen
  15. Since the team has gotten good I get so anxious on game day. TBH I don’t really like how much the the outcome of the game can effect my mood. But once you’re a fan there’s not much you do
  16. I agree. McDaniel is very good with play design which is part of the reason why you saw some many open WR’s last season. Also he’s helped Miami develop a decent running game despite not have a great OL or and a low-end RB I also think he’s a big reason why Tua played so well last season. IMO it isn’t as much about him as a QB, as it is about the offense McDaniel built based on his strengths. As a head coach, I think he’s very corny though he’s sometimes his comments are funny. So many have made the comparison to Rex Ryan in that aspect which I have to agree with.
  17. I came away from this game thinking not overly impressed with Detroit. They had one very good drive but aside from that the offensive game plan wasn’t great. Hutchinson was a beat defensively and KC got away with so many calls. Still, if Toney doesn’t drop those passes they might not get the W. Overall I see Detroit in a similar position as last season. Good news for them is that the teams in their division are relatively weak
  18. Damn…I hope he gets the help he needs
  19. I don’t think happens. If all goes well both Dodson and Spector will be special teamers and reserve MLB’s. Dodson is better on ST and at MLB. I don’t see the Bills cutting him for Spector.
  20. Did you ever noticed how despite being a local home-grown athlete and an legendary uncle who is synonymous with the franchise, Kelly never got any kind of tryout with the Bills? The rumor was that Jim advocated for the t Bills to stay away from Chad since he’s be surrounded by some many old vices and bad influences. Many believe that John Elway taking as the final pick in 2017 was done as a favor for Jim. The crazy thing is that even after sabotaging his career multiple times, Chad’s NFL stint was progressing well in Denver until Von’s Halloween party
  21. I think Wyatt Teller is the reason why the Bills have gotten behind Spencer Brown. Unfortunately, I don’t see Brown as “the next Wyatt Teller”
  22. All Pro Boogie Basham? I don’t know about that…while Boogie definitely looked better than he had in previous years, the bottom line was that he couldn’t beat out UDFA Kingsley Jonathan. Even if he did, he would be the 5th or 6th DE on the team. Even with a DL rotation, where was he going to get snaps? If anything I think he could be the next Isaiah Hodgins. A player that was buried on the depth chart with the Bills that left for a team which gave him more opportunities that he made the most of. I’m sure some fans will continue to whine about it too. Some fans will point to Isaiah Hodgkins. He turned out of be a solid WR with NYG, but he’s far from an All-Pro
  23. This is an establish fact. There are beat reporters that said his pickup would often leave the facility around 4:30 PM. Plus we know he drove to Cleveland with Rob to watch the WS on Wednesday - usually the biggest day of preparation during the week
