The Official Fire Ken Dorsey Thread

[Scott7975]

Dorsey and McD have successfully coached out of Josh what actually made Josh special. I been saying it for years to not coach Josh out of Josh. Well they did it. It takes a special group of coaches to successfully coach the special something out of a Qb that makes him elite to begin with. It’s fricken disgusting.

I've been banging the drum for quite awhile that this team needs new coaching. 

 

You are exactly right here. The Bills organization is wasting valuable opportunities with Allen at the helm.

Part of calling an offense is knowing your players and knowing who consistently makes those mistakes. That 3rd down was basically THE play of the game for our offense, the difference between icing it or forcing Bass into a 50+ yard kick and NY getting the ball back. On a critical play like that you have to be smart enough to know that Knox is not a dependable pass catcher on a good day, and tonight he's got a wrist injury on top of his usual ineptitude.

So the overall concept of targeting an undependable player like Knox on THE play of the game was fundamentally flawed.

 

I know people like to make fun of Allen for almost always looking at Diggs first, but why wouldn't he? Dependable targets should get the ball funneled to them. Diggs, then Cook/Murray in the run game, then the scraps to everybody else.

Stop it.  It was an easy throw for a HS QB and Josh blew it.  95% Josh, 5% Knox, 0% Dorsey….on that play.  I agree with some other points about Dorsey….. not all but some.  The TD to Harty was a great call even if it came on the heels of a terrible call…..which it did.  Josh had more good plays than bad but he’s not flawless and that 3rd down clincher was all on him.

I’ve been driving the fire Dorsey bus ever since he arrived

 

The offense is awful

To these points..........I find it hard to believe that Dorsey,  who won a National Championship in college playing under center,  is the one totally behind all this shotgun bull####.

 

I think Allen must not be comfortable turning his back to the defense and is driving this remnant of Brian Douchebolls failures.

 

But under center is where he belongs.    He's not going to be Patrick Mahomes out there distributing dimes off-platform to 9 different receivers.   He needs the rhythm, timing and footwork that playing under center provides to elevate his game.    It's not a knock on him.......Tom Brady made a living doing it and he's the GOAT.    Getting under center largely negates the impact of the exotic fronts and that's why they are plowing thru them on the ground and receivers are coming open when they use it.   

 

Yea there must be a Josh element in there. Like you said it might be his relative comfort level in shotgun v under center.

[Kirby Jackson]

3rd and 1 in the shotgun? Punting from the 37 yard line? Josh Allen does not run anymore? Whoever is responsible for gelding the Bills offense should be accountable. That performance was disgusting. 28 NFL teams beat you with the way that you played last night. The coaching was an abomination. Fortunately the talent gap overcame it last night.

aside from far too many junk play calls (shotgun runs right into the d has happened like 6 times off the dome, and each ended a drive), imo our real issue is the Ds know our routes, and most of all our protections stink.

 

every time an overload, a creative stunt, or some kind of pressure or coverage disguise is put out there, we just don't pick it up cleanly.  Josh does not process stuff before the snap well enough, and blah pass rush teams can create pressure off of design because we just don't pick it up.

 

im starting to get on board this wagon (im pretty much on).  josh and some of the guys we have are getting a bit wasted.

[All_Pro_Bills]

They were lucky to win that game and honestly I was surprised they didn't blow it at the end.  That's 3 bad games out of 6 for the offense.  Its clear somethings wrong and pointing the finger at Dorsey is a good place to start.  Sure the Jets defense is pretty good, and considering the defense, hit by injuries, held up their end of the bargain in London last week we should be able to dismiss the jet lag excuse, and then against a Giants team last night another clunker.  We all agree running out of the shotgun a foot from the goal line is ridiculous.  Next week is another clearly winnable game.  If they struggle for 3 weeks in a row then something needs to change ASAP. 

The problem, and all of us know it, is Bills management are always the last people to figure out somethings wrong and by the time adjustments and changes are made its usually too late to salvage the season.  

 

 

 

 

[Donuts and Doritos]

He's too much Josh's buddy not enough his coach. The offense is better w/ Josh under center. But Josh would rather be in shotgun. So Ken keeps Josh in shotgun & we go 3 and out repeatedly.

He got paid like a top TE and the ball was in his hands, not just hit but in his hands. 

[Negan]

Who decided it would be a good idea to have a first time playcaller be your offensive coordinator?

 

And then they doubled down on it this past off-season... Give him time he'll learn from his first year lol 🤣🤣... Give me a freaking break!!  He's calling the same garbage 3rd grade offense as last year.

I would literally give my left nut to never see another freaking shotgun draw.

That’s a bold move cotton, let’s see if it plays out.

[Real McClappy]

When passes hit WR/TE hands in the NFL you catch it. How many execution flaws have we seen the past 2 weeks now by our skill players? It cost us the Jax game and nearly a W last night. 

Dorsey does need to get his head out his ass though with the shotgun runs on insert down and short.

 

I see they have throttled Josh down running the ball this year for career longevity which is not a bad thing. I do however think Josh needs a few licks on DBs to get him playing to his high standard. 

 

Glad this thread is official. 

 

All that and the Bills are still 3rd in the league scoring.  Who the hell would take over with actual credentials or track record as an OC?

Just thinking about last night, who would know our offense and player tendencies better than Daboll??  Think he was involved with the defensive game plan a little bit?   While the offense under Dorsey is inconsistent, they’re statistically top 5 or so.  He did call a 17 play drive that ate up 9:58 and wore out the Giants as well so it wasn’t all bad.  Some of the issues are on the players also so I can’t blame him for the bad and ignore the good.

Joe Brady.
 

And at this point it is obvious that Dorsey is just another run-of-the-mill play caller who can’t maximize his star QBs talents. Dude needs to go. 
 

and if Joe Brady isn’t it, then we hire someone next season. But we can’t spend years trying figure out if we have a good OC in staff while Josh’s prime comes and goes and our SB window closes. 

[Roundybout]

This knuckle-dragging troglodyte doesn’t deserve to work with Josh. 
 

Case in point: He needed ONE first down to end the game. He called a run for two yards, THE SHOTGUN SPRINT DRAW FROM HELL on second and 7, and then a TE iso deep to Knox??

 

No rhythm, no flow, no identity. Get rid of this stupid pencil neck loser now.

Now do Josh.

It's not a good throw. 5% Knox is some serious hyperbole though. The dude has 50/50 hands and is seriously overrated based solely on his friendship with Josh. If anything that's on Dorsey for dialing up a play to him when you can't afford a drop.

And the clock management/decision making on the last offensive drive as well.

 

Horrible all around
