Bro, it's over.

When you have "Franchise QB" figured out, everything else can be changed on the fly. There is no need for down times, especially multi-year rebuilds, when we have Josh on the roster. Just retool and go. Bring in a new HC, new coordinators, some new players on defense and let's go. Yes, the Defense will look significantly different next year as our vets age out. That is life. Not some grand mismanagement. Out of all the players named in the original post, Von Miller is the only real issue.

3rd and 18 is our sweet spot. We LOVE giving up conversions on 3rd and 18.

13 seconds against us in KC. 16 seconds against us by KC in Buffalo (week 7 2022) The BILLS THEMSELVES did it last year against Detroit. Got the ball with 21 seconds left. Had Josh rip ONE pass to get us into FG range, and kicked the game winner. McD just crapped his pants. Again.

Reich is a bigger puss than McD. Hell no.

Pitt proving our point about how inferior our coaching is. Minny proving the point that teams should hire an Offensive HC.

You are severely underestimating the egos of NFL coaches.

Unprepared and out-coached.

You are on record in this thread talking about how talented the Eagles are. Rightfully so, they have the best GM in football. The Bills had the lead through much of the game, and took them to overtime, IN SPITE OF botched calls by our coach. The talent is there. The coaching is not. What are our wins?

Like when Gabe caught the go ahead TD with 1:50 left in the game and we just needed the Defense to get one stop? Maybe if McD grew a pair and went for it with 20 seconds left, you would've seen another Allen/Davis connection. How many times does Allen/Davis need to be perfect before the D gets a stop? Because they did it like 4 times in KC and McD blew that too.

Sure is, but a fumble does not deserve being benched for 16 plays against a team we could gash in the run. McD being too extra because he has no real instinct on how to handle things.

He had a 10 point lead early, and left the field with the lead, twice.

Because it's 2023 and outside of CMC (who has an obscene 193 carries) RBs dont have big games anymore because they arent a featured position anymore. His 12 carries for 109 yards (with a big 42 yarder) against the Broncos is up there with big games from RBs. Too bad the coach lost it for us in the end. Probably lost it for us in the beginning by benching Cook for way too long. He had 17 for 143 against the Raiders and was key to putting them away. The kid is the real deal, up to the coaching from here.

You dont even read before you respond.

I think based on what we just saw mere hours ago, that is all arguable, especially the OL/DL. Seemed like the Bills dominated there way more. We had a 10 point lead a couple times. It was situational decisions that blew it. San Fran is the most talented roster in the league. Sure, I'd like their roster. Doesnt mean the Bills dont have talent to compete with the best, and should beat plenty of other lesser teams.

The Steelers have a negative point differential, but are in the playoffs. Must be all that talent squeezing out situational wins for them.

A definite to all the bolds, and a maybe to the Cowboys and Ravens.

What WR did you want to give $5M this season that is playing better? The Knox point is on coaching, which I will not argue. But Beane is giving the coaches talent. It's on them to use it properly.

The Chiefs are a more talented roster right now? We lost to the Pats and Broncos because they are more talented? The Steelers are more talented? The Texans, the Browns, the Colts? All above us in playoff standing, are all so talented? No Even the Dolphins leading our division arent more talented than us. Maybe at #2WR, that's about it. McD has coached our talent out of the playoffs.

Harty is an easy cut next year. The Knox contract isnt so bad when you look at the entire league. White is a definite cut and money coming back. Take the franchise QB off any team and their roster looks like a drought era team. 🤷‍♂️ My point here isnt just to refute. I'm sayin, the situation is not that bad, and most of the real issues are fixable. I wont argue on that Von contract tho. That's a real doozy.

But far less attempts than most. Dude is productive.

By running well, being patient, seeing holes, being slippery, breaking tackles, and gaining lots of yards. Like the very good RBs in the league do.

The thread is about his drop off over the entire season, not just one week/last week.

Fair enough, wasnt aimed at you specifically. Bills fans have been lined up to hate on Diggs every since he got here. That said... I think a lot of it has to do with teams focusing on taking him away. kinda obvious for anyone about to play the Bills to say "Take away Diggs, what else do they have?", and they arent wrong. Although Kincaid/Shakir/Davis/Cook/Murray could get it done with a well called Offense, like we saw tonight. Once the O finds their identity again, which is Allen spreading the ball around to multiple receivers and also running it himself, that will open up Diggs' game again. Looks like Brady has us on the right track there. We'll see. I think we can salvage Diggs in Buffalo by canning McD and resetting with an Offensive coach.
