It was nice to get a dominant win last night, against a team we should dominate. Let's see how it goes through this gauntlet of a schedule coming up. Dorsey wasnt the only problem on this team. Anyone assuming it will be all suncshine and rainbows from here is in for a bad time. I think McD's seat is still hot depending how the rest of this season goes. I'd still like to see us take the next step and bring in that O coach.

This just isnt true. Not for how the Bills are structured, and not for how business is done in the modern NFL. No clear out. No tear down. No restart. Example: See the Miami Dolphins. Had a low-key, "high-integrity" Defensive minded Head Coach whose teams always underperformed and came up short. (Sound familiar?) They canned him and brought in a young, hot shot, Offensive coach. No GM change. No major roster changes. And he has hit the ground running, they have seen immediate improvement, and will likely take the Division over us this year. You worry about wasting Josh's best years in a change, but from the evidence presented it looks like we are on track to waste him on McD.

lol, i just saw this one. deleted my haircut thread. Our boy is back!

That's not the game plan and that conversation never happened. As evidenced by the first two plays we ran forcing the ball to Diggs on swing/screen passes. But we were up and winning and moving the ball all game. As long as THAT is happening, and as long as we win, Diggs doesnt care about targets, catches, or yards.

Rightfully so, it's a dumb idea. As agreed upon in this thread as well.

it's an option. he could choose to do something like that. i've previously floated the idea of re-signing him to something like 3/$21m with like $10M guaranteed. depends if he feels like giving the Bills a "hometeam" discount, or if he would be insulted by the idea and more willing to test FA

Oh damn, thanks for the clarification. I guess I had that backwards. Then it's a $10M cap hit if he retires/traded/cut. Or we pay him $16m to stay around and maybe play ok. Easy decision no matter what the consequence. You cut him June 1 and save $6m.

Back to that familiar drought feeling of being checked out in mid-November. Had a great bday party for the kid yesterday. If we're done with clean up by game time, maybe I'll turn it on. Or maybe just check the score tomorrow to see what these jabronis did.

If he retires, then there is no cap hit or dead money for the Bills. So that would def be the best thing possible. Isnt gonna happen tho, he'd be dumb to do it. Might even have to give some gauranteed money back if he did. Bills will have to cut him June 1. If anyone moves to Safety it will be Rasul Douglas.

Good call. The way you get them to come up is pretty simple tho. Run the ball, and even more so, run Josh. No need to be so stubborn and arrogant to call the same type of pass play over and over and over, where the defense has us figured out and is baiting Josh into throws by showing him specific looks. Dorsey couldnt even realize the the Defense was dictating to US instead of the other way around. Let Josh run, and then the Defense will know how that "dictate".

Well he was welcomed back into the league and played for 7 more seasons after he got out of jail. Even had special meetings with the Commissioner, in which Goodell advised him to stay away from Buffalo and to sign with Philly. But that isnt collusion or anything. So I'd say nah the NFL doesnt care. And likely never really did.

McD has absolutely nothing to do with the franchise valuation. I'd also say he has little/nothing to do with the Franchise QB (other than trying to neuter him). Also, note on Rex's contract, all coach's contracts are guaranteed.

Just a little town outside of Luthorville

Link any posts that say that.

Their coach went on to buy a bunch of property in Nevada with the idea to hit the San Andreas fault with missiles?

Aww, bless your heart.

Found a good spot to sit in the zone. Even the faster WRs in the NFL arent going to run away from that coverage of where the DBs were and their leverage.

I think the whole sentence is "Allen's running is never coming back under this coaching staff" The good news is, they shouldnt be around much longer. Whichever new Offensive coach we bring in should be ready to unleash the beast.

Totally different issues. Josh throws picks off bad decisions. Fitz's picks were mainly because of his weak arm and inability to get the ball there on time. Especially at the end of the game when his shoulder is tired from putting his whole body into every throw the entire game. He'd see a window flash open for a split second and try to get the ball there, but didnt have the zip. Josh has the zip. Heck, he's got the zap. He just needs to get back to playing loose and being the Beast again. Get some of that open shirt chest hair Fitzmagic swag going.

If Amazon would let him do it for the rest of this season and allow him to come back to his commentating job next season, I think he might be able to be talked into taking a 10 week assignment to come in and hang with the boys and write some poetry and get the mojo back. The boys need to figure out how to have fun again and Fitz can teach them that. I like it. It wont happen. Similar to my Fitz for HoF campaign. But I like the thought.

I dont know. To me it almost looks like he simply wasnt smart/experienced enough to run most of Dabol's playbook, so he trimmed it down to what he did know and understand, and could kind of teach, and that left us with the "pop warner" scheme and play calling we've seen this year. Not sure he was trying to prove anything as much as he was just trying to keep his head above water.

This is what these guys do for a living. Pretty much 24/7 for coaches. So you have to imagine those things have been seen, those discussions have been had, most of those things have already been tried. And either way, the Offense continues to decline. And so goes morale.

I dont think it's an "attack" on Josh. It isnt unfair or unreasonable to say he needs to play better. I believe he said as much himself today. But he isnt the main problem. And even so, you can't fire Josh. That said, while Warner is making his "defense" of Dorsey, he is also saying things the entire time like "Now, I dont like this play here", "It's tough to run this play against this defense", "Not a good concept, I agree", "Not great options on this play", so... yeah. Yes, they are largely the same plays we ran against Miami, Washington, Vegas, Tampa, etc. That's the problem. Everyone knows what is coming now. Almost every clip Warner showed was extremely well covered. Because they knew exactly what was coming. Just like I did in my previous post.

I'm 7min into a video called "In Defense of Dorsey" and so far all I've seen is a poorly organized unit trying to run poorly designed plays. Yes, Josh needs to play much better. But he's been getting no help.
