We have had problems running the ball even when we were 4-0. People get tired of the consistent problems on the O-line and D-line year in and year out. Don't expect me to watch a crap game when the outcome is obvious halfway through the 1st quarter.
As a consumer, you can't consistently put a junk product onto the field and expect people to watch it. I am still a Bills fan, but I have better things to do with my Sundays than watch an exercise in futility and frustration.
I was happy during the Seattle game because for the first time in years I watched Buffalo actually have a pass rush and collapse an opponent's pocket consistently. That mysteriously disappeared after the first game. I haven't a clue as to why. Did Marcus Stroud get replaced with a body snatcher? Is he injured? I don't know, but that front four isn't the same as the first game.
We have the 3rd heaviest O-line in the league, and can't get six inches on 4th down. People get tired of this garbage. I mean, it could be worse...we could be Lions fans, but at the same time, my time is too valuable and I am not going to consume crap anymore. I turned off the game halfway through the 3rd quarter and I was happier for it.
Jason Peters isn't a Pro Bowl tackle...not like this...not even close. He was beat by 2 rookies in the first 4-5 weeks both of which resulted in turnovers/sacks. Every time I hear him talk about being "dominant" I want to hurl. Give me a break. If you were dominant, we'd be running the ball off left tackle every other play.
We run a Cover 2, which let's Wes Welker run slip-shod through the gap between our front 4 and our linebackers. Adjustments? What's that? Oh yeah, that's stuff the opposing coaches seem to do but not us. And it happens every weekend.
Is this the end of the world? No. Are we DOOMED? Hard to say. Is my patience running thin? You bet. And I am willing to wager I'm not the only one.
