You won’t get any arguments from me that Beane has failed to find difference makers. I was screaming for Troy Franklin when we took the JAG Dewayne Carter. He’s also missed too many times on free agency and a few guys have bad contracts we need to shed.

Thanks to 8 sacks, the inability to control the ball, and 3 turnovers. I’m not excusing the first half defense, just providing perspective. While our defense couldn’t stop their offense in the first half, our offense wasn’t good enough to put up points against their defense the entire game.

If complementary means that both sides are league average then you’re correct. Every team has one side of the ball stronger than the other. When you have a generational MVP at QB it’s not difficult to figure out which side of the ball is supposed to carry the Bills. All this whining about the defense and a bad first half when the offense put up 12 whole points, was sacked 8 times, and had 3 turnovers. But it’s not on the offense no matter how well the defense played in the second half. The offense’s performance all game was due to the pressure they were under thanks to a bad defensive first half. I understand.

Houston’s team is carried by their defense. Buffalo’s team is (supposed to be) carried by their offense and generational QB. Different expectations for each team. But hey! Today I learned that if the defense has a bad half of football, the offense isn’t to blame for lack of scoring throughout the game because the defense just put too much pressure on them - no matter how well they play the second half.

None of the Ls were out of hand until late. If expecting the offense to move the ball and score points with Josh Allen at QB is too much to ask, due to the immense pressure the defense puts them under, then might as well cancel the remaining games.

Sorry, the Buffalo Bills are supposed to go as far as Josh Allen takes them. The second half of that Atlanta game the defense got stop after stop after stop and the offense did nothing outside the opening drive. I don’t want to hear how awful the first half was, so they’re inept in the second half. Move the ball, score points, the defense is doing its job. The offense is not capitalizing. He did the same with Chris Jones last year in the playoffs after Kincaid dropped the ball.

The coordinators never seem to scheme opponent specific. They just do what they always do on both sides of the ball and believe that it’s enough. They don’t make efforts to take away impact players, they don’t call game plans to attack an opponent’s weakness, they just scheme what they always scheme.

Good thing there are TWO halves in a football game. TWO. What did they do that second half? What did the offense do? The losses have been on the offense.

All losses this year - Patriots, Falcons, Dolphins, and Texans, have been on the offense. The defense didn’t play well in stretches, but did keep the team in games and gave them multiple chances to win. The offense continues to come up small.

He hasn’t been seeing the field well all year. On the first pick he had a wide open Cook on a swing pass and threw it to the worst option.

Collectively it was the OL’s worst performance in recent memory. All 5 guys stunk tonight and took turns getting beat, many times on the same down.

Probably a naked bootleg would’ve been great.

Offense seems so confused and ill prepared.

WHERE IS THE REST OF THE DEFENSE?! I mean, a DT is the only player in on a tackle 8 yards down the field

Just far too much spacing allowed in the red zone on that last call. Far too much. If your secondary is gonna play it that way blitz the house and try to get a free rusher before the play develops. Inexcusable.
