Upon further review, yes. The current Jets under Saleh appear to be an insurmountable hurdle for McD and his Bills. In our last three games total, with Allen as our QB and White (1) and Wilson (2) as their QBs, they've outplayed us generally and aggregately. In those three games they have better metrics on everything except passing yards. They've outscored us, 54-53 Average 18 - 17.7 They've gotten more 1st-Downs, 53-52 Average 17.7 - 17.3 They've gotten more Total Yards, 908-863 Average 303 - 288 They've logged more Rushing Yards, 422-333 Average 141 - 111 They've gotten more Takeaways, 6-4 The Passing Yards favor us, 530-486 177 - 162 Both teams have 5 TDs. We have 2 Passing TDs and 3 Rushing TDs, all three rushing TDs by Allen They have 2 Passing TDs, 2 Rushing TDs, and 1 Special Teams TD FWIW

Kirksey is a grasping-at-straws pick-up. I realize that no one thinks he's Moseley, but he's about the same as Klein was and the team didn't see fit to keep Klein around. A year younger, that's the primary difference. The lack of average play there is going to be most prominent when we play balanced offensive teams. There are plenty on our schedule this season, more so than any other year under McD. It's going to be interesting to be sure. Our offense is really going to need to carry this team this season. Yesterday was not a good start, as I mentioned elsewhere, this was our worst regular season scoring output in 22 regular season games.

I'm surprised he's even on a PS. Does what you added alter the point in any way, shape, or form? That's the important thing.

I didn't say that. You said that I said that. We were talking about the vacant level of play at MLB implicitly. Pick on someone else.

Yeah, sorry, again, I probably should have specified, I meant moving the ball in our direction, not the Jets' direction. Other than the aforementioned FG drive, we had four drives totaling 70 yards, an average of 17 yards/drive with a long drive of 34. In the first half we had two scoring drives of 75 and 60. Hence the comparison and contrast.

It's incumbent upon coaching to get this to sink into Allen's head by explaining it to him. If they can't do it, then Pegula needs to find someone that can. If they've seriously and effectively done that and it still hasn't sunk in, then another problem exists. Allen's plenty bright. Our 16 points in regulation was our worst in 22 regular season games, and with our new-and-improved offense.

Cook has never been a tackle-breaking player, not even in college. He was drafted for his speed. It's wrong to expect that from him. But that's what McBeane want. I was hoping to see more of Harris yesterday, he only saw 9 snaps. Seems as if he's like Hines, a lot of hype over his signing, but maybe they won't use him much either. Good coaching would know how to optimize the talent we have.

Keep in mind though that the Jets OL is not good, well below-average. Bigger tests of our push rush await. Kincaid played 80% of the offensive snaps.

Beasley was exceptional at finding the open spots in coverage.

Well, remember, it's by design. McBeane want faster coverage guys in the back 7. So that's what we have. And they do that pretty well. It simply comes at an expense.

Not in the first half we didn't. Also, that's a trash exaggeration. At least bring truth to the discussion.

Not even Edmunds in particular, rather the complete lack of planning for it.

It's never McD. That's been established. He's only the head coach.

We shouldn't have had only 16 points in regulation. The only game that we scored fewer points in last season was the Cincy playoff game.

Ya think. LOL Funny how our "genius defensive mind" couldn't envision that. Seems blatant.

With the lone exception of the FG drive to tie it, we did nothing in the second half. Or staff routinely gets out-adjusted. I'll have to rewatch it, but when we're on offense I'm routinely looking to see which receivers Allen ignores in flavor of the deep balls, guys that are wide open. I was planning on making an ongoing montage video off it this season. But I didn't see a lot of those yesterday. If anyone has the time stamps for them let me know, I'll include them.

Dorsey should be much further along than he is at this point if he's ever going to be any good. Our coaching staff is like an experiment to see how less-than-optimal coaches can do with a talent like Allen.

We can blame coaching all we want, but at the end of the day this was another poorly coached game, offensively in particular as well as in general. It doesn't say much, other than buckle up, it could be a longer season than we thought, when not only did we lose to a Zach Wilson led team, but when he didn't even prepare for the game. He looked OK, better than he looked last season and he gave them enough big plays. 16 points from our new-and-improved offense. SMH We averaged 18.5 against the same D last season without Kincaid. All 5 OL-men played every snap too. SMH

He was, but the Jets' OL isn't really a high bar for measuring that. Same for our pass D, ... Zach Wilson. 16 points when we scored 12 & 20 last season, with a better O this season, isn't a good omen.

With two games to plan from, McD couldn't even get us to our 2-game average of last season, with a better offense. Last season we had the 2nd ranked scoring offense. Six teams or up more points against them than we did in our best game last season. They ranked 8th, 11th, 14th, 18th, 23rd, and 26th.

We'll, he plays MLB, he's expected to do it regularly. I assure that he did not fit it anything close to regularly. He got blown up many times.

There's not a big difference between Kirksey & Klein. Cook had never had more than 140 touches and that was at Georgia. His high here is 110. I'm sure there's a reason for that.

BTW, if you review the game or highlights, ping me on when they were. I wouldn't mind analyzing Bernard's play this season. Thx

I'm sure I missed a few, but there couldn't have been to many since many were not there.
