I’m starting to get extremely frustrated with Dorsey.

[FireChans]

Here’s the thing. I have never been a “fire the OC” guy. I think if you polled fans of 32 NFL teams, and ask them their biggest problem with their team, it would either be the OC or playcalling, two nebulous concepts that usually come down to more of a lack of execution than anything else.

 

All that being said, Dorsey is driving me nuts. I can live with getting away from the run a little bit. Josh is our best offensive weapon and anytime the ball isn’t in his hands, defenses are happy. 
 

What I cannot deal with is a lack of preparedness and what appears to be glaring schematic flaws. 
 

There were two separate occasions on deep shots tonight where Gabe Davis and Isaiah McKenzie were operating within 2 yards of each other. Unless one of those recievers ran the wrong route, there is exactly NO excuse for that. These were not flood concepts or rubs or anything like that. Just two guys running flag routes next to each other.

 

The other thing. Backup OLmen all over the field because of injuries, not his fault. But we go out there and try to catch the defense with cadence with two backups in on the OL? Is that a joke? Of course, Saffold jumped (which is even funnier) but I question the decision making at all.

 

Bottom line is the Bills offense is still really good. Statistically one of the best. But a lot of times, it feels to me that Josh ends games dragging this team to the finish line after mixed results for the first 3 Q’s. And you know, that’s fine. If that’s the story of the 2022 Bills offense, it’s still pretty good. 
 

But to me, I don’t think that’s the sum of our parts. I think that’s selling us short. 
 

As a positive, Knox was infinitely more involved today which was awesome to see and definitely worked. So you know, Dorsey isn’t hopeless. But these are the kind of things that I had hoped would be cleaned up by week 6,

32 points is NOT going to cut it

 

They scored three straight TDs on 4 first half possessions. The 3rd quarter was rough, and Allen masks a lot of the issues up front. They got it done with two straight scoring drives in the 4th (albeit mostly Allen)
 

Load up the OL as WR room next offseason and we’ll see how things adjust.

I do feel like the play calling could be more imaginative and varied.

To me that's more Allen making something out of nothing.

 

Dorsey's play calling has been..."interesting" since the bye week.

11-3.

Dorsey's scheme every week is just "figure it out, Josh." 

[DuckyBoys]

Daboll was not that different  Think were seeing some of the fallout from a team that failed to shore up its O line and that was before the injuries piled up  We dont have any difference makers on offense besides 17 and 14 and especially not on the O line

Once Morse went out it would have been a big mistake to go under center.

 

Josh has large sure hands and even so, he was challenged on a couple of those plays.

[BuffaloRebound]

I hate how hard everything is.  Relying on Josh to constantly make super-human plays seems destined to come up short.  We’re the Elway Broncos before they got Terrell Davis and a running game.

That’s fine. I admit, it’s not like the Bills are bad.

 

Do you think the offense is operating to its full potential?

I like the heavy pass approach, but where are the runs mixed in durian the drives? Where are the play actions?

 

Bills offence got 32 amd 450 plus yards, but that’s because Josh is an absolute animal

[Beck Water]

I’m starting to get ….frustrated isn’t the right word, “Bemused” by is better - fans on this board who can’t even enjoy the win for an hour without dunking on a player or two or a coach.

[Big Blitz]

The last series made up for a brutal 3rd quarter.  
 

That drive wasn’t just Allen - good combo of well timed runs that were all PIN AND PULL

[Comebackkid]

sometimes the bills offense is like driving a Porsche with the emergency brake on

[HaldimandBills]

Its a combination of poor oline play. Josh Allen playing hero ball and forcing the ball downfield instead of taking the easy 5 to 8 yards. Davis being a # 3 receiver not a # 2. Mckenzie being a gadget player not a slot receiver. 

 

I think I'll hold back on outright critism considering Allen finally threw for over 300 yards again and 4 pass tds.

And when we are 12-3 people will still be bitching. This team could be easily be 15-0 if you remove half the WR drops. Why is it so shocking to fans we have the real deal Holyfield at QB that the OC relies on?

Yes some have permanent damage; this has been reported repeatedly by released patients of BBMS.

Your name is literally "FireChans".

 

I mean... I guess Modkins was the offensive coordinator for Gailey?  But Chan was the de facto offensive coordinator.
