Bills @ Bengals postgame thread

[Bills!Win!]

The bills have 7 losses in the last 2 years all by 6 points or less (regular season)

 

As a matter of fact. The last time the bills lost by more than 6 points was November 21st, 2021. 

 

We have Had the best roster for the past four years. But our coaching Has let us down

We don’t know if Dorsey is the problem or if McD behind the seems has his hands on the offense and is the problem.

 

I’ll never forgive McD for his horrible handling of 13 seconds though. More and more I don’t think we’ll ever win a SB with him. I hope I’m wrong but I think I’ll sadly end up being correct. He comes up small in the big spots 

It's at least Dorsey.  His play calling is maddening and holding this team back.

The better prepared QB with the better weapons won.

 

Simple as that.

 

Burrow would tie Lou Anarumo in knots with his ability to read a defense and find it's weakness..........but Allen can only move the ball on Anarumo if he runs no huddle and Anarumo can't substitute.    That is an indictment.   Some want to lay the blame on Dorsey........but Allen should have a much better grasp of this offense in his 6th damn year in it.   He needs to be a lot better decision maker.    I'm not in the fire Dorsey crowd but a new playbook might be necessary to force Josh Allen to focus on the X's and O's again.   

 

 

 

 

 

It's Dorsey's job to run an offense that Josh can excel in while teaching Josh.  Thats not what Dorsey is doing.  Either Dorsey sucks at his job or Allen is a mediocre QB.  I choose to believe Josh is elite because I have seen him play elite.  Dorsey is a second year offensive coach that had no business really getting that job in the first place.

They’re desperate because nothing is working. The new gimmick, no huddle/up tempo, didn’t last very long. 
 

The coaching has no idea on how to fix this. 

Worked when we used it.

I say that too, but my son is 20 and he doesn't listen anymore. In fact, he's so damn good that I should probably listen to him. I take credit for that.

No question who the better QB was in this game.  And the Bills running game is about the worst in the NFL.  Good thing for Arizona being so bad huh.

Here I was just thinking the Bills defense was their biggest problem when in fact their offense lost them this game. And almost lost them a couple more games.

[TFBillsfan]

Frustration from BillsMafia is high so I can only imagine what it’s like in the locker room.

 

i have no direct knowledge but it sure seems like the offensive philosophy is lacking and questionable. McDermott and Dorsey want to run this 12 personnel with a slow and methodical run/ pass balance and limit Josh’s running ability.

 

The problem is that’s not who they are or what works best for them. This should be a uptempo offense putting major pressure on the D. Josh has needed more investment in the OL and more playmakers on offense outside of Diggs. When Diggs gets taken away then it’s all on Josh. Outside of Diggs, your rookie TE and check downs to Cook, no one else is stepping up consistently.

The team showed one bit of emotion on the field since beating Miami.  And Josh got flagged for taunting after it.

They played with heart and intensity tonight.  all night long.

 

could be injuries on other teams catch up to us.

This. I’m a little easier on the defense given how banged up they are. But I have some issues with how often we blitz at times.

 

The expectation is that the offense carry some more of the load and they’re actually carrying a lot less.

 

Dungy and Harrison are asking “what is your rhythm? When you’re not playing Superman what is your game?” Good questions. Most think a better running game. I agree. But when we take the ball out of Josh’s hands things don’t go great either?

 

In a game like this I think we got too far behind and felt like it could get out of hand in short order. But in general I agree. 

[Awwufelloff]

Josh Allen’s Int and Kinkaids fumble was the difference in the game. Win the turnover battle and we probably win that game

They used it throughout the game, not just at the end….failed. 18 points. 

[billybob71]

Dorsey calls plays like I play Madden....  uhhhhh heck lets click on this play and try that

[Straight Hucklebuck]

Nate Geary on WGR is calling the Bengals the class of the AFC. 

 

Really? 

 

Because you think that was impressive? 

 

Against this rag tag defense they score 24 points at home? 

 

The Ravens, Chiefs, Eagles will walk through this team, heck I think the Jaguars are right there with them.

Listening to Allen’s post game. A little bit of throwing throwing Dorsey under the bus. Not crazy. But subtle.

 

A little odd when asked about specific players or multiple drives, and a lot of “I don’t know. I’ll have to watch the film. I’m just trying to run the play that’s called”

 

Certainly standard speak, but it’s also pretty common for a QB to go “well they did a good job of rolling the safety over top.” Or “we tried to move Gabe around but they did a good job of taking him away” but “I don’t know is weird.”

 

WGR is super angry just yelling at clouds. Saying nobody was getting open, which is WILDLY INCORRECT. Also upset they drafted Kincaid. 
 

I don’t know why I got the urge to listen. I never do. But all these guys on WGR have some of the lowest football IQ. 

 

 

 

Wait til old Coach Sal gets on tomorrow to tell you everything is great and the team just lost a close, one score game to a team everyone thinks is a SB contender.

 

As if it wasn't totally one sided until we scored late to make it interesting for one play until the Bengals ended it

[Billz4ever]

The offense is the problem with this team.  

 

Not the side of the ball that's lost our best player at every level of the defense

 

Dorsey is the problem.

[Governor]

We’re a little worse than the Chargers. 6 or 7 wins max. That should be enough to replace the regime. McD is battered and defeated. It’s time to pull the plug.

Forgot about that. Yes!

Beane and McDermott are wasting Allen's career. Like on the Panthers, their turning Allen into the next Cam Newton. One "Almost" year, then the fast decline. If McDermott had a conscience, he'd resign. Bills have already peaked. The one plus is that soon the Bills will be back to only playing games at 1pm.
