Well, sometimes we are.

While I agree the offense had it's issues (to be kind) to start the game. What about McD's defense???!!???

 

You can't give up a 9 play 63 yard FG drive followed by a 7 play 45 yard TD drive to the worst offense in the league 

It's not a one or the other thing. The OP was about the offenses slow start so I was responding to that specifically. This was by far our worst game defensively this year. Specifically (and I'll need to see the A22 to confirm) Jordan Phillips, both Dorian Williams and Tyrel Dodson, Taron Johnson and Dane Jackson looked especially bad. We were misaligned multiple times early on in the game. Our tackling was atrocious. It was bad all around.

 

EDIT: To be clear on Taron - it didn't have anything to do with the last touchdown - he should have had help inside on that, but didn't get it.

Used to be our attitude. Now it’s “a team that folds like a lawn chair when things get hard”

[Warriorspikes51]

I want the Air Raid offense back with the actual threat of Allen running….

 

How many plays a game are a WASTE of delayed handoffs from shotgun. Beyond stupid. It’s so obvious on film too you can bet

Yeah because Dorsey has like 8 plays he uses and the shotgun draw is the most used. It’s so predictable.

No creativity to help the short comings both on offense and Defense. Just keep doing the samething over and over hopeing it works. 

With all that practice, sooner or later they'll perfect whatever it is they're doing.

The injuries are huge. Think.

Agreed. But the offense is healthy, and hasn't started playing with urgency or effectiveness until midway through the 4th quarter in the last 3 games. Who is to blame for that?

I think the Bills actually are maximizing their talent on offense…The problem is- there’s not that much talent…

Yep. It’s Diggs and that’s pretty much it.

 

And it took the bills 7 weeks to figure out we have a pretty good TE that they should throw to more

this fan base is SALTY tonight.  One thing I will predict Terry Pegula will NOT do is announce immediate firings of ANYBODY until post season. I just don't see him doing it.

 

I think #17 is having accuracy issues again.  Why I personally don't think is injury related. I could be wrong

 

losing games in disappointing fashion is never easy or fun. I am wondering how they will perform on Thursday. That will tell me a Lot regarding this teams fortitude and ability to overcome adversity.

He was the most accurate qb in the league until today and you don’t think his shoulder had anything to do with it?🤣🤣🤣🤣😆😆😆😆😂😂😂😂🙄

Josh leads the NFL in comp %.  Josh had 3 TDs and almost 300 yards.  The guy needs help, and it starts with letting him be Josh and Dorsey being replaced 

He had some frozen rope passes  today. And he missed some open receivers.I will agree he didn't have a lot of time behind his line today for starters. I'm just not used to seeing him miss receivers as what I saw today

Ya I definitely think it was a factor.

 

Josh has been inconsistent in his decision making this year but his accuracy has been very good all year Until today, and I definitely think his shoulder injury played a role.

[par73]

Allen missed several passes-- including the one to Diggs that likely would have been a TD

Are you blind? How many throws were high or inaccurate? This is the first game he’s looked like this this year. Stop acting like this is a trend. Explain how one game shows he’s having accuracy problems. Dumb….

Apparently he didn't have shoulder pain when he knew where he wanted to go with it

Q: Over the last three games, you guys have a total of 10 points in the first half. Have you been able to put your finger on anything for the slow start here?
SM: I wish I could tell you. I really do. I wish I could tell you. We talk about it. We talk about being more detailed, getting into a rhythm early, playing complementary football and all three phases working together. We haven't been able to get into a good rhythm, obviously, in the first quarter. Let's just start there. So, just overall, we've got find the answers there.

 

I get sick of his BS answers. How about “unacceptable” “we’re not maximizing our talent” “we’re too predictable” etc. etc. oh, but then he might hurt Dorsey’s feelings. 

Or not enough talent/playmakers. I'd like to see some jet sweeps/screens with Harty. He was supposed to be the YAC guy coming into camp

MCD is part of the problem and needs to go

Is that why Daboll complained about him?

Tons of overthrows. Very uncharacteristic of Josh this year.

I would guess shoulder but maybe I’m wrong

Pretty much. There isn’t much talent on this roster and that’s Beane’s fault. He sucks at his job.

There's a couple of players that shouldn't see the field or even be on the roster and Dodson is one of them

Because receivers not named Diggs can't get open? Or hold onto the ball?

[HomeskillitMoorman]

The fact that he doesn’t know what the problem is speaks volumes
