Hate that they credited the fumble to him and not Moss. Stud Game! I think there is confusion on the fumble. Josh had 1 fumble, on the sack. Dawkins recovered. The fumble inside the 5 went down on Moss. 1
Ethan in Cleveland Posted December 8, 2020 Posted December 8, 2020 Fumble gets credited to the QB as the last one to control the ball. QBR gives credit for rushing yards. Josh only had one positive rush all night. After the Hyde pick, I thought we would see a QB draw on first down.

The announcers had a few mixups too, called Matt- Mike, Brandon- Jeff and said the Bills started in good field position when they started at their own 10. The announcers seemed to be junior league. Fortunately I did not hear them since TV is in bedroom and my wife was sleeping I left sound off. 1

A bobbled ball bouncing off of the hands is an INT and not a fumble. the QB gets the INT 2

Also somehow on ESPN they claimed he fumbled not Moss. I'd love to see all those posts I defended him in 2018 & 2019, blaming it on Daboll and the play calling holding him back and now we see how being aggressive and paying playmakers actually works in the NFL..... Who would have thought that????😜😉 Why split hairs? Josh had an amazing game on MNF. Kudos to you for pointing out how great your assessment has been. Your medal is in the mail, sir 😜 1 1 1

It was a little high on his chest for a handoff but the fault lies with Moss. He has to keep his arm open until Josh completes the handoff.

Stefon Diggs changes so much about the offense. That is what true #1 receivers do. They make everyone else's job easier. But the reason we didn't have the 300 yard games wasn't because we weren't aggressive. It was because our personnel wasn't up to it and Josh remained a work in progress. Josh was not capable of being who he is today right off the campus at Wyoming. He has developed brilliantly and to just say "ah well that has nothing to do with coaching" is nonsensical. I am coming around, however McD was just so conservative that regardless of the situation he just couldn't figure out the need for offense years 1-3..... We have scrubs all over the place throwing for 300 & many very early in their careers. This is a special year (to date), but look at just how many games the Bills were blown out 2017-19 and there were many chances to see better #'s. However the past is the past & nothing can be done, however to pretend like some do that everything was done as part of a plan and they hit on every decisionthe coaches made is wrong. I was on in 2018 & 2019 (oh & 2017) continaully upset about the offenses #'s and why they just were atrocious and accepted by many here. Now we'll here complaints about the run game, which is the plight of being a Bills fan......😉

I get the stat sucks for Josh to get the fumble. We all know Moss screwed up. As the stat sheet says - Again by the rule Josh had full possession last. Which is F'd up because a botched snap is a fumble by the QB. Maybe the NFL will update the Fumble when they correct the INT that never happened!!!! ???

That is why they coached that way. Look at Belichick. He is 6-6 with a paper thin roster and Cam Newton not putting up many big numbers. For years he won with Brady throwing all over the yard. He knows if he tried that with his current roster they'd be 1-11 (still beat the Jets :D). You coach to your talent. McDermott now has an offense that he can trust. His Quarterback has developed, he has an elite playmaker.... it makes the difference. If McDermott had rookie Josh throwing 45 times to Andre Holmes and Zay Jones there wouldn't have been 300 yard games it would have been beyond ugly. 2 1 1

I agree with you mostly but it is still an anomaly that he didn't have a single 300 yard game first two seasons. Random dudes in random teams with random offensive personnel have 300y games quite often. Allen not having a single one last year was bizarre.
Mr. K Posted December 8, 2020 Posted December 8, 2020 JA kicked some teeth in last night. No analytics needed. Go Bills!

We have a winner. This is the best worded concise answers that I have seen that explains how this team was developed the past 3 seasons.
