97.5%

That’s equal parts lower than I thought it would be and making me sad knowing it was officially that high 😂

He's a regular.  It's always his fault.  

 

The lowest paid starting player.  He's the one.  LOL 

 

Anyway, that's a given.  

 

 

Now that Dorsey is gone you have to select someone to be a whipping boy.

I’d jive with this more if the defense didn’t give up a preposterous td on a 3rd and 15 to a scrub wr after the int. 
 

it’s hard for me to hate on the INT when josh should’ve had 5 total tds if cook doesn’t drop that pass since we’re on the topic of mistakes 

I know. Some of it is bad luck. Like, does Allen have a single dropped INT this year? Every. Single. Mistake turns into the worst possible scenario this year. He has to play perfect or it is a pick. It is crazy.

Even that pick yesterday was a pretty nice play…like I watch mahomes and tua and defenders are dropping picks that hit them right in the numbers lol

Players must make plays.  Did Andre, Eric and Thurmond run as many wrong routes and drop as many balls??  Didn’t think so 🤔

It was a collection of things, but ultimately comes down to the head coach. Been doing this for a while and has learned nothing from his experiences! It’s time.

Yeah, but he's been the whipping boy!

 

Beane never lifts a finger to get a true bona fide #2, the push Davis into the role although he's not perfectly suited to it, make the most of it, and yet it's Davis' fault. 

 

Only in Buffalo under McD!

REED STARTS OUT STRONG, BUT A BIG ONE GETS AWAY

 

TAMPA — Buffalo wide receiver Andre Reed, who caught the first six passes thrown his way, dropped at least three after that Sunday.

 

One of the misses, on a deep route over the middle, would have given the ball to Buffalo inside the Giants 40. It came right after Bruce Smith sacked Jeff Hostetler in the end zone for a safety that gave the Bills a 12-3 lead.

 

A reception would have put the Bills within striking distance of a score that would have put some heavy pressure on the Giants. Instead, New York was able to score before the end of the first half, cutting the margin to 12-10, and the Giants went on to a 20-19 victory in Super Bowl XXV.

 

''I had one or two I should have had,'' Reed admitted. ''We`re all not supermen out there, although we think we are.''

McDumbass is always the answer but Bass & Cook cost us 13 points.  And Micah needs to explain whatever the hell that defensive position was?

Dorsey is actually seeming like he was part of the problem honestly haha averaging 33 ppg even though we took the 4th quarter off against the jets with him gone.  Doesn’t mean there can’t be multiple bad coaches though 🤣

McDermott has to win out at this point to save his job IMO.  No playoffs, no job.

 

With that being said, Trent Sherfield should be cut immediately - he clearly didn't know his plays.  Everytime he stepped on the field he was useless. 

 

Gabe Davis is getting a lot of blame on the last play, which we don't know if he deserves - this could have easily been Josh's fault. 

 

We left 13 points off the board. This should have been a route.  James Cook dropped a sure touchdown on the second drive and Tyler Bass missing 2 field goals (the block is his fault, he didn't get it high enough). 

 

The refs had the fix on from the beginning.  The amount of calls/non-calls were ridiculous.  You can't even quantify the amount.  There were so many obvious ones - even Romo consistently commented.  The worse thing is they weren't even close:

 - Ticky tack Defensive Holding on Douglas

 - Dion Dawkins questionable holding penalty to offset Philly's obvious DPI

 - Sherfield obvious DPI no call

 - Diggs obvious DPI no call

 - the Horse Collar/IG call

 - The McGovern invisible hold negating Johnson's 16 yard run

 - The obvious block in the back on Siran Neal on the 4th quarter punt - philly got the ball on the 32 and should have had it at the 7.

Statistically this play was probably the biggest negative impact on the game, besides the TD that won it lol

yes in the win probability changes it was the biggest negative play at -24.7%, then eagles got another 10% from the resulting TD.

The common denominator for all of these close losses is one guy -- our defensive genius who loses his mind in the last two minutes of football games.

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

Von Miller should not be on the field until he can get pressure...he literally busted a spin move right in Hurts face and had an easy sack but after his 360 was completed he just stood there and watched him throw it a few seconds later.

He obviously just did a spin move for optics to make it look like he was trying and didn't actually expect to have to make a play.

He really was bad, and mostly, looked unprepared , like he didn't bother to learn his plays. Just like Miller seems to give half-ass effort. 

 

Other guys at least are playing hard. 

[bigK14094]

Cook dropped a TD pass in the first quarter....he is on the list next to Davis imho.

[Blackbeard]

Refs should be added to the poll.

 

But Bass should've made those points.

Man I’m getting so much better at stats @GoBills808

After all the failings in the 2nd half, Josh yet again handed the keys to McDermott with under 2 minutes to go. The Eagles had to kick a 59 yard field goal with no timeouts left. Sloppy conditions, the chaos that would ensue from running the offense off and the special teams unit on and had to be done in an extreme pressure situation all played to McDermott's hand. So what does he do?

 

He calls a timeout... 

 

Not the Eagles, they didn't have any, but the Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott called a ***** timeout.
