I feel the same way. I’ve been watching for 45 years. I just got thru being all excited for this team during the pre season and the first part of the regular season. I can’t sit here and watch another season go down the drain just to start the whole process over again next season.

And this is exactly the reason why I am done with this coaching staff. That last drive New England scored on has epitomized Sean mcdermotts entire tenure here.

Yeah, this one was pretty bad.

Meanwhile, in KC, Mahomes has 321 passing yards and 3 TDs AT HALFTIME!!! McDermott traded them that pick. 

 

And does anyone think the Bills would have won a Super Bowl with Mahomes instead of Allen over the last 5 years ?

Finally, you are arguing with what I've been saying. 

 

You given me a lot of flack. 

 

I even compared the ZBills to the Chargers and nearly got my head decapitated. 

 

No floating here because I wish I was wrong. Football sure hasn't been as fun with the Bills seemingly regressing. This season is hanging on by a thread. 

Fair enough and like I said my eyes were really opened the last couple of weeks.  And when my information changes my mind does to.  I may have been slow on the uptake and as an optimist I'm going to give the Bills staff the benefit of the doubt hear.  But damn people like you who did say we were more like the Chargers then the Chiefs were right.  We're starting to lose games the Charger way to.

 

Now I hope I'm wrong here and the Bills go on a tear.  The NFL is weird like that.  But I don't expect it.  This will leave Pegula with a tough choice at the end of the season if heaven forbid the Bills fail to make the playoffs.

If we had Andy Reid I think we would’ve won a Super Bowl with Allen, but I don’t think we would with Mahomes if McD was in charge.

Mahomes on the Bills doesn't equate to the same kind of guy on the Bills roster. 

 

I can say with confidence if Allen were in KC he would have a ring or two or three.

Bills need to make a notable move at NT. Ford, Settle, and Phillips are rotational guys only. Vickers is garbage. 
 

We play 4 man front. There’s no NT in McDermotts’ Defense. Now, if you wanna talk about making a move for McDermott, I’m all ears.

[Blackbeard]

Watching this Chiefs game:   No one is curtailing Mahomes from

running!!  
 

why are we?!   It’s such a weapon

The only good I saw today was Kincaid and Cook. Both looked pretty solid. Wasn't enough. 

 

The biggest concern is the Oline. They have been pretty bad the last few games. IMHO, it the major reason why the offense isn't excelling. Add in a clueless Dorsey and poor WR core too. 

 

It's a long season anything can happen. I just feel like the season is pretty much over. 

I worry that the slide in the O lines play is simply a result of D coordinators having enough film on the two new guards to have figured out their weaknesses and how to exploit them within the Bills blocking schemes. Remember the disaster that was Scaffold didn't become apparent until about halfway into the season.

 

I agree about Cook & Kincaid.  Keeping my fingers crossed that they keep getting better.  But I also thought Allen was great today.  Not he whole game but in the 2nd half Allen did exactly what you want your elite franchise QB to do when the offense is struggling:  right the ship and score TD's to win the game.  Consider that:

 

*  The Bills had 4 meaningful possessions in the 2nd half and they scored TD's on 3 of them and only failed to score points on the 4th when Knox dropped a 4th down pass at the Pats 30 yard line.

 

*  Allen was outstanding in the 2nd half when he had to be.

 

*  Just 2 quick 2nd half stops by the D against the worst O in the NFL likely would have given the Bills two extra possessions and 10 extra points.

I've been trying to talk to you for months about such a move. All you gave me is grief.

I think he meant 1 tec.

 

Which I think we do need as they are lost without D Jones

[Dablitzkrieg]

Imagine being outgained by a 1-5 team and outplayed by Tyrod and Mac in consecutive weeks.  This team will be sub .500 soon.  An absolute disgrace

Every fan, analyst, commentator etc says the same thing…. Gotta find ways to spread the ball out and run the ball.

 

They ask where’s the RB screens? Getting Cook involved more in the passing game.

 

Look at the plays Hardy has made after catch the past 2 weeks. But yet he get 1 target a game. Gabe Davis gets zero looks. We run redzone offense and Kincaid never sees the field. Run a fly sweep, where are the 5 yard crossing routes? This offense doesn’t work, Dorsey ain’t the guy, combined it’s just never gonna happen.

 

Think about it people, McDermott and Dorsey is who this team is…. I said it at the end of last year, at this point we are just wasting our time with a QB that can win….. just needs the right combination, that’s not Dorsey and McDermott. I don’t hate them, just my opinion they are not top tier coaches.

 

And the loyalty to a fault of this FO nothing is going to change!!!

I do agree Allen was very good in the second half. However, him and the offense has to play well for a complete game. 

 

The first half offensive performance was unacceptable. The offense has been an issue for three straight games. That just shouldn't happen. 

[Radar]

News flash...!! Quit always blaming coaching. It's players! Injuries aside only a super fandom wouldn't see the weaknesses in this team. Look at Beane first.

*sigh*
 

Bills MUST acquire a capable replacement for DaQuan Jones, whose DT position responsibilities are different than Ed Oliver’s. 

[Baba Booey]

Josh Allen is wasting his time with this franchise. Just like we are, Mc Dermott can not take this team any farther. Time to move on!!!

It would have been useful if he was just good in the first half. He was anything but.

Even in the first half they moved the ball and got into good FG range twice, struggled to punch it in, barring whatever the ***** happened to the ball on that one kick we would have had 6 pts at the half. I wouldn't doubt the Patriots are still somewhat competent in the redzone defense.
