Coaches should be ashamed for the way they handled our last offensive drive leaving time for Houston.

Think they would have end of game time management seared into their brains after 13 seconds

On Monday,   Brady was asked about the trick play and he took it so hard. He was like it was the worst call ever, blah blah. blah,, i’ll never do that again, i’ll learn from it.  He took it way too hard.  It’s football, the defense gets paid too.   But you just can’t force the run all the time. The best play callers keep the D on their heels.

 

It was also weird that he said he'll never do that again.

 

It's a trick play FFS. Don't tell people your plans. 

 

Like when Josh told the world we like to double dip and we haven't received second half since.

No reason to think three straight runs could not have resulted in a first down. 

At the very least, it burns enough clock that Houston prolly can’t get a play off after the punt. 
 

It was coaching malpractice of the highest degree.

So can we scrap the Samuel screen behind the line of scrimmage

Josh was straight trash today. He will accept the blame like he always does . Mcd will probably not take any accountability  and tell you how proud he is of the fight. But these games will come back to haunt us at some point.

 

Its all great beating lesser opponents but we really need to show we can win these conference games. 
 

Some of us knew this could be a real problem this year
 

We had 2 deep shots this game and both went to Mack Hollins who can’t track a ball if his life depended on it. Not his fault maybe, Should he be asked to do that?  Probably not.

 

So today we had  some brutal oline play, receivers who can’t get open and maybe it just correlates to crappy Qb play? 
 

Why is Kincaid not getting 12 targets a game? If the opposing D is taking him away then we need someone else. 
 

Who is our go to player when we needed them the most on our final drive? 
 

 

Can Brady Scheme Guys open? Like it’s seems like all our shots are 1 on 1 tight  throws! 

Can or will Beane get us help?

 

 

 

Thank you for someone finally saying it

Once again, the Bills could not run the clock out because Houston had 3 TOs. They needed to get a first down somehow.

If the run the ball 3 times they probably gain a bit of yards for the punter and force Houston to burn all 3. You play for OT.

I have never seen a team take the football first after winning the toss in years because everyone likes to double dip…that’s like him saying ‘we like to win’ and complaining because teams now know you’re trying to win 😂

When you're at your 3? And haven't run the ball effectively AT ALL in the 2nd half? And that's the expected course of action? Ridiculous

I think the offense defense whole team should’ve been ready to play when the game started. JA17 started what 1-8? No excuses. They need more playmakers. 

So everybody is at fault but third rail Josh gets excuses?

Agreed… let Tribisky run a play action pass to the Knox.  No one.  No one would have seen that coming.  But a handoff up the middle to Cook.  They literally wasted a down with that predictable call. 

Or maybe let Brady dial up one of his special trick plays.

Where did I ever say “run the clock out”? You run 3x to burn their timeouts, and to give room for a better punt. Plus a slew of other reasons (risk safety on a hold, int, etc). The “should’ve ran 3x” crowd is NOT barking that thinking we’d run the clock out…

60 Million dollar QB 9x30, 56.1 passer rating.

 

Apparently you're not allowed to criticize Josh, as long as we can point to other people's mistakes, just ignore 9/30 for 130 yards.

 

That's rookie Josh kind of numbers. That's horrible accuracy & decision making. But because Brady didn't run 3 times at the end, doesn't matter that Josh has looked bad the last 2 weeks.

 

But that's just how fandoms work. 2 weeks ago we had threads fearing Brady would get a HC job & leave us. Now it's all his fault we've looked like crap for 2 games. But we "quietly improved" at WR, so it can't be that either. It's just coaching. Not poor execution, not our favorite players and not injuries, it's gotta be the OC.

Well, I did wonder if that was the case when I posted that. Fair enough.

Not everyone understands things.  That is ok.

This loss is on the coaching staff.  Honorable mention to mack hollins

That guy can’t track a ball whatsoever

[All_Pro_Bills]

I can't take McD anymore. Ametuer level clock management. Coaching clinic on hoe to blow the game after the 2 minute warning. Anybody here that didn't expect the ending to play out exactly like it did? Well, anybody other than Sean.

After this I've gotta say the posters saying we'll never win anything with yhid HC are right.

We have idiots for coaches.  We have a terrible punter and kicker.  We have no talent at the skilled positions. 

 

I'm done with this current regime.  They will never win anything.  They never learn from their mistakes.

Yeah they’re fully exposed for what they are now all the way around. I’m all for continuity, but it’s probably time for a new voice in there. I still think 13 seconds should have been his last game as HC. 
 

As for Beane, I don’t know how you go into a season, as a contender, without someone who can catch the ball or get open with Josh Allen as your QB.

Yea I get people being upset but that was a huge reach haha. Safety is way more likely than first down if you run three times there
