LABILLBACKER Posted October 5 Posted October 5 (edited) 3 hours ago, Steptide said: He did adjust in the 2nd half, and it was working until that terrible trick play call, which if it had worked, we'd probably be calling him a genius right now (assuming the bills won) The sheer fact of how embarrassing that play was drawn up, puts him far from the genius category. The D wasn't prepared or in the proper alignments and the offense looked flat out confused. It's not time to panic on Brady, but if the OL doesn't sustain protection and these remaining wrs don't get some separation, it will be Josh running for his life all over again.

This is far more than receivers not getting separation, but more about his failure to adjust to the Ravens pressure packages and leaving Allen to run for his life. Unless we can regain an intermediate passing game, we are in big trouble. Just a couple years ago, how many first downs did we get on 3rd and 8 to 15 (and occasionally more). Blame the receivers, yes, but don't forget being clueless pass pro wise against the Ravens. Runner up, Babich in not adjusting defense to deal with Ravens heavy packages. Did you not think that sooner or later the Ravens would win one? Think of it as a wake up call, all teams are recipients of such things, even the vaunted New England patriots got one, 31-0 by the Buffalo Bills, ***** happens, 1 Quote

I think McGovern and Torrence just need some time to gel with McGovern at center. It was just an off night, slow start ,from players to coaching, and we still had a couple chances to get back in it. This OL was elite for 3 weeks, sometimes you got to tip your hat to your opponent, I believe it'd be a very different story in Jan, if we meet again Quote

FYI, we had four drives in the 2nd half, unless we count the last two that we cashed in with Trubisky and to run out the clock to end the game. The first one only resulted in a TD because of that broken play with the 52-yard pass to Shakir. Otherwise that's a 3-and-out. The next drive we had that long play on the left deep to Coleman, but that was one of the few plays where WRs went deep. After that not much on 5 plays for 9 yards otherwise, that was the drive with that ridiculous trick play, but if our adjustments were working, why the trick play. He was obviously out of ideas. On the third drive of the second half, we had those two deep plays to Coleman on the same route he ran the first time, and to Kincaid, but after that 5 plays for -6 yards. That was the MFG. Those three deep plays were half of our net yards in the 2nd half, the rest of the half wasn't good. That's not really successful adjusting. In fact, those were close to the only deep plays we ran on the game. Most of Allen's attemps were short-medium passes. That's what our head coach wants. Edited October 5 by PBF81 Quote

Don Otreply Posted October 6 Posted October 6 Come on guys, we are 3-1 and a certain segment of fans here who are generally dismal in their outlook of this team, and complain endlessly, should be massively pleased with the first quarter ish of the season we are performing nicely, this endless kvetching about every damn thing the coaches and front office does is making y’all look like morons, get a damn reality check, it’s a rare occasion that teams don’t lose two or five games every f ing season, so get off your high horses and come down to earth, I and the majority of Bills fans are getting truly tired of your whiny schtick, nuthin but luv from a fellow Bills Fan, 😁👍🍸🚬 GO BILLS!!! I just know I’m gonna get pointed for this…, 3 Quote
todd Posted October 6 Posted October 6 Like you said, IT IS ONE GAME! Good lord. You evaluate by a body of work, not ONE GAME. Quote

BlazinBill Posted October 6 Posted October 6 Best thing to do is try and not ride the waves- I have certain doubts with coaching on this team but it's more big picture stuff- not offense in nature at all- I don't get how we are the best thing ever and a week later so many questions on people loosing a step and crashing down to earth? Josh Allen has lost a step too? I mean seriously - it's a long season - let's settle a bit- that's my take anyway - Quote
