It's the consecutive deep shots that get us behind the sticks that bothers me. We need to go into dink and dunk mode sometimes.

This is often how our series go.

 

1st down incompletion.

2nd down run for like 2 yards.

3rd down incompletion.

Punt.

If this game is the subject of a point shaving scandal in five years I will not be surprised.

I agree 1000%.

Do we win that game with Tua playing?

 

IDK

Is it a close game with Hyde and Von playing? IDK either.

[TheFunPolice]

A win is a win!

 

But we almost gave that game away 

[JerseyBills]

I understand Mia blitzes more than any team but to continuously have these long , low percentage throws is inexcusable 

 

They go over the middle to the slowest guy on the WR Corp and he gets 30. 

 

I miss Dabol 

[CEN-CAL17]

I miss Daboll

I am firmly prepared to die on this hill. No matter how this season ends, Dorsey needs to be fired. Go get Frank Reich.

Watching the NYG & thinking we’re really missing Daboll right now.

I love bass but that’s at least the 3rd time this season he’s done that 

The ball must have been falling off the tee when he kicked it or something

Go Bills!!

No way. Bills a -1.5 with Cincy at home.
 

The spreads have been way way off on Bills games this whole year. I thought the spread on this game was out of control. 
 

I put my money on Miami to cover and it payed. That’s how much faith I had in the Bills.  Knew they weren’t covering that. 

The Bills were just favored at Cincy?

You are correct…When you have nearly 400 yards offense in what would be a supposed C/B- game I don’t think he cares about checkdowns. 

 

There's time and place. The third from last and second last offensive series in the fourth quarter was not the time to throw deep balls. Even if Dorsey was calling for it, Josh should have been asking him if he had lost his mind. Indeed, after the first deep shot, Dorsey should have been telling Josh to cut it out. Protect the ball, dink and dunk, utilise the run game.

It was so different with Daboll, they got to 3rd down a lot less often. Or so it seemed.

At least if it was 3rd down with him it was normally 3rd and a more manageable distance rather than 3rd and long all the time.

[Big Blitz]

I’ll also add - Tom Brady almost lost to a 7-9 Taylor Heinike led Washington team in RD 1 of their Super Bowl run in 2020.

[BillsSbSoon]

Why did we release hodgins again? Lol. My blood pressure still feels sky high after that one

There can be no 'loyalty'. Dorsey regressed everything about this offense in just the way I thought he would. He's too aggressive and we saw after the first Miami game too emotionally immature. Unfortunately, he's the exact worst fit for Allen and accentuates Allen's worst tendencies. 

 

Reich would be a good fit as he's a QB friendly guy that is much more of a 'move the ball then take a shot' compared to Dorsey's 'take a shot to setup taking another shot' offense. 

[billybob71]

I am happy they won not trying to be negative and i know all teams are flawed, its gonna come down to Allen playing much better than today for them to win it all. Defense is too soft at times and offense has no flow and doesn't play smart,  whether that is on Allen or Dorsey not sure, prob both today.
