Why is this team so flat??

[Thrivefourfive]

The Cincinnati game should have been a Super Bowl effort. Avenge TWO games last year, and you have a week and a half to prepare after a Thursday home game.
 

But this is a game performance that is scary looking right now. There’s no great prior playoff success that can be summoned to excuse the players’ lack of energy and the awful coaching. The Bills haven’t played exciting football for way too long. It looks like the dog days of summer out there right now. 
 

They got bullied again. All those dudes in that locker room okay with this?? 
 

1. The players that have money are playing like they don’t need anymore of it

 

2. The coaches hate each other. McD called out Dorsey in the halftime interview. He needs to make a change and bring in a game caller with decades of experience. Stop the JV experiment with Dorsey.

 

3. Would a terrible HC be terrible if they have Josh Allen? Isn’t Allen the quality of QB that wins 10-12 games a win regardless of his coach? Why do I always feel like he needs to be coached to the teeth to be a successful player..? The top two or three QBs in the league over the past two decades won every year regardless or receiving corps, runningbacks, Olines, defenses, and coaches. 

[Mr. Wonderful]

Beat by better team including QB.  Simple as that.

No joy.  No passion.  No fun.  Time to change the coach.  Maybe it works, maybe it doesn’t.  But that where this is headed.

This team was built on process & culture, both are dead and we don't have enough talent to overcome our lack of coaching

[Airseven]

They look similar to what we saw most of last season. They flash but no consistency. Need to accept Daboll was the creative force on offense and the defense has gotten old, slow, and fragile.

[DeltaDigital]

Ken. Dorsey. 

[Dr.Sack]

The two offensive turnovers were the difference.

[Bangarang]

Coaching. This regime was great for ending the drought and building a winner but I think we peaked under McD 2 years ago.

[Warriorspikes51]

I’d say there’s a very good chance most of the team lost belief in the coaching staff

 

 

[Simon]

 

I think you're kinda nuts on that one. Those boys brought it tonight.

They didn't play well enough but they played hard enough.

It's officially time to hire Ben Johnson and say goodbye to Dermott & Dorsey.

[Buffalo Ballin]

Because McDermott and Ken Dorsey killed it.

We peaked at :13.  It's as simple as that.  No creativity or identity on offense.  We've neglected the OL for 6 years and our defense can't ever stay healthy.  

[Maine-iac]

Kincaid doesn't fumble it's entirely possible we win this game.  We weren't that far off.  Defense looked pretty good all things considerned.  Offense never learns to just take what the defense is giving them.

[billybob71]

it reminds me of the NHL when the coach has lost the team and players aren't listening anymore

That's not our offense and not our QB, forcing our QB to be that is causing a lot of issues

[cgg716]

Because the team has rightly lost faith in a coach, who never really had faith in them

[MiltonWaddams]

The offense is reflecting the dead fish personality of the OC. Josh may have been sugar high at times, but Dorsey was a 3rd string QB, so reflecting his attitude on the field is not what we need. I am not sure McDermott needs to go, but I am 100% sure that Ken Dorsey should not be calling plays for this team next season.
