The Big Cat

Please. We all know what posting the rankings is meant to imply. And I continue to remain exceedingly skeptical of the sudden expertise in this guy's playcalling. 1-8 when their opponent scored more than 20 points. Those rankings mean diddly poo.

Go ahead and provide that link. We'll wait.

You're seriously going to make us start at zero with this conversation? You're going to pretend like TT's unwillingness/inability to make the kind of risky throws necessary to win in the NFL is totally completely brand new to you?

That wasn't aimed at you. There is abundant hand wringing over how the new OC is bound to ruin what was a great offense. It wasn't.

TT's inflated rating has been roundly analyzed and accredited to his low attempt volume and aversion to turnovers. It is exceptionally misleading to suggest this ranking reflects the 19th best passing offense.

ALynn and GRoman ran offenses intended to complement a dominant defense. They were not effective on their own. I don't want any more of that razor's edge, ****. See Chiefs, KC. From 2015-16 the Bills were 2-16...read that again...2-16 when their opponent scored 20 or more points. Stop telling me the offense was good enough.

Funny how the NFL's best OC's always have great QB's.

Hadn't realized there was a scoreboard. Might help you make up ground if you (or anybody else certain this will fail) clarified your expertise on OC's from around the league.

Well, keying in on his ypc helps make his point. Finishing 7th in the NFL with 10 rushing TD's, on the other hand, would not.

' Boy, our longitudinal understanding of another team's OC sure did crystallize quickly!

Exactly the point. You have no idea what the playcalls are, what the QB's freedom to change them is, how many different calls the QB can make at the line, etc, etc, etc. "Playcalling" is probably the dumbest things fans complain about. We know this because it's a complaint that's nearly gone extinct now that we have access all-22 analyses, without which we can't even begin to guess at what the objective of any given play was. But even the most diligent all-22 analysts freely admit that their ability to understand things is severely limited...by not knowing the playcall. So, again.

I've been shouting about this for years. It's absurd that it's not.

That's not even remotely the case.

THIS X 1,000,000 And you know for certain that the QB wasn't checking to something at the line?

Please stop.

Why?

It help keep these conversations on track if we acknowledged that the "9th ranked offense" mattered for precisely diddly poo. The ranking is being tossed around as if it were the equivalent of being the "9th best offense." We were not. The offense was not good enough last year. Tyrod was not good enough. Let's not lose these facts in the rearview.

Well...considering he's what went wrong in BLo...

Nicely done, Gugny EDIT: So, I didn't type "Gugny," I typed an ofted used epitaph used on Deadwood. That's probably the best autocorrect east egg I've ever seen.

When OC's elsewhere fail it's because their QB stinks. When our OC's fail, it's because our organization stinks.

This thread is teeming with self-ascribed expertise. Proceed with caution.

Except I heard it from a horse's mouth.

I can verify Dunne's anonymous source. This guy ruined the 2016 campaign, singlehandedly.

Thank goodness. For a minute there we felt pretty good about our coaches. Couldn't possibly have that. Relieved that we might finally be lining up someone to hate and scapegoat.
