Bills @ Benglas Game Thread - 1st half

[The Jokeman]

Good on Collingsworth not being a homer at the end of the half.

i used to love football,   actually,  thought i still did,  even through all the struggle years.   watching these players,  not do the basics,  add in the refs,  add in the boring football in 3/4 of the games each week,  i think i might be done.  sad day tbh.

 

watching these people,  be mediocre at their jobs,  and knowing what they get paid,  just leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

When’s the last time Greg Rousseau made a difference? Dude hasn’t made a play in a month. Time to shed the invisible man act.

All our rotational front 4 are invisible. 

[Chaos]

Why did we not throw a hail Mary on that last play? 

[loveorhatembillsfan4life]

Im just waiting for Diggs to absolutely lose it on this staff.. its coming..maybe not today, or a week from now..but it’s coming. 

[TFBillsfan]

Bills about to be 5-4 unless this game changes dramatically. When you think about the horrible losses to NYJ and NE along with survival wins against NYG and Tampa this team is struggling on many levels right now.  We seriously might be looking at a 9-8 season or worse!

[Mango]

It’s time to restock the shelves and rebuild this team from Allen and the OL out. It will take about 2-3 years to shed some of the current contracts and get replacements up to speed. 
 

But baring this team catching fire, and the offense consistently playing borderline historically, I don’t know where we go without shedding some of our age. 

[kkim0904]

get rid of Dorsey...

[ILBillsfan]

we are not spreading the ball around none to the backs

 

[Big Blitz]

Kevin O’Connell won on the road with 2 back up QBs one that just got there this week.  
 

Let’s gooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!

[beebe]

gotta hand it to burrow, have resisted calling him 2nd best QB but he's pretty damn legit. 

[NewEra]

Boo Dorsey.  Boo Poyer.  Boo Rapp.  Boo Spencer brown. Boo trip tackles

That is not grounding if the QB is not under pressure. There has to be intent to avoid the pressure. McCauley is an idiot, apparently. 
 

It is a foul for intentional grounding if a passer, facing an imminent loss of yardage because of pressure from the defense, throws a forward pass without a realistic chance of completion.

Yep was gonna post the same thing, by rule that’s not even close to grounding.

Why didn’t they throw a Hail Mary there????

 

coaching staff asleep at the wheel

Ask yourself why 13 seconds happened, or why we don't seem to adjust in-game, or why we are a crap team now.  Spoiler alert...they all have the same answer as your question.

How you punt from their 46 with 24 seconds left down 14!?

Officially done with McD. If he’s still the coach next year, I’m not watching.

McChump is playing not to lose... While losing

[Freddie's Dead]

Another mistake by McDummy.  Let the clock run down to 4 seconds, then Hail Mary.  Our coaching chokes instead of clawing and scratching for each point possible.

By having the refs arbitrarily decide to call a phantom penalty three minutes after the last play.

This is not the team we thought it was. It just isn't.  I've never called for McDermott's head, but when a team is this bad on offense, defense, and special teams, you have to conclude he's a big part of the problem.
