I still think we make the playoffs - will we win a game? Well thats a whole other question.

Groot hasn’t been great. The injuries to Oliver, Hoecht, and Bosa have been killers though..but I do think McDermott is doing his best he can with what he’s been giving. The defense always seems to settle in as the game goes on. The defense gave the Bills plenty of opportunities to get back in the game last night. Held the Texans to 3pts and less than 50 yards of offense in the 2nd half and the Bills offense did nothing.

It might not be that much worse.

It seems to me the team is in disarray. The performances lately have been bipolar. I will have to just watch the games and see what unfolds. No way I can predict what will happen with any certainty.

It's a very common phrase and a very common play. Read the defense and throw the ball where there's going to be space. The receiver can adjust easier than the defender.

Steelers: Loss Bengals: Loss Patriots: Loss Browns: Win Eagle: Loss Jets: Win It's going to be a 9-8 season. 10-7 if things go really well.

People with very high expectations have very low resilience. Stop expecting so much and sports become much more enjoyable.

Brady is more like the guy everyone saw at CAR than at LSU. Without Allen the Bills are one of the worst O's in the league with his scheme.

Yes, unfortunately.

This. This is our worst issue right now IMHO. We have enough talent to be effective, but not when the OC is failing at his job as bad as Brady has been this year. Yes, everyone knows we could use a top end WR1 or deep threat, but that doesn't get to be the excuse for Brady when his play calling and adjustments are so bad. Our offense has gotten so predictable and the blue print to disrupt it has been there all year. When the league started to figure McVay out, he adjusted and countered. Brady is not doing a good job at this, nor is he doing a good job to keep the defenses guessing. It is so easy to tell what we are about to run or call most the game. Then there is his terrible adjustments, or lack there of: I was screaming all game to attack short, quick hitters. Quick drop and fire - screens, slants, short crossers, comebacks, curls, shots to the RBs out of the backfield, etc. But we were calling stuff constantly that take too long to develop against a pass rush owning our line rushing just 4. Allen constantly taking deep drops and looking downfield behind a line getting dominated and crushing our QB was one of the dumbest things I have seen him do yet, and she stuck with it until the very end before he finally did something different and attacked quick hits to move the ball the final drive. This team has issues on it overall - but Brady has gone from a hero (last year) to approaching a zero this year because he doesn't seem to have the answers to what opposing DC's are now doing to disrupt his offense. Side note: The WR group out there has been terrible this year on scramble drills too. I don't understand how this is so bad this year when its been such a big part of our offense for years.

Can somone send this to Terry and explain how bad this is please?

Bills fans are a hardy bunch I was salty last nite but more because how much Josh was getting abused not just the loss We were really close to losing Josh last nite with an injury

Steelers: Loss Bengals: Loss Patriots: Loss Browns: Win Eagle: Loss Jets: Win It's going to be a 9-8 season. That won't be good enough for a wildcard.

Why would any of the aforementioned DC leave their current teams to join us? If you haven't watch the 49ers or Dolphins they run timed based passing games which lately Josh has sucked at cuz he not doing 3-5 steps drop and pass. Instead he's looking at one read and looking to extend the play but rarely staying in pocket.

The Brady ship has sailed. He cannot design a passing offense. He built a reputation as an offensive guru by having a bunch of future all pro at LSU. He's painfully predictable, unless he's drawing up a stupid gadget in a crucial situation that doesn't work. He does nothing to react to game situation. How do you do nothing to help a hobbled Spencer Brown when he's getting eaten up? I don't care how weak the talent at receiver is, the structure and play calling are worse. Josh shouldn't be immune to criticism either. He's not playing to his standard. If he was an A last year, he's playing at B-/C+ this year. Josh doesn't deal with pressure well. It's never been a strength of his game. His answer to pressure is almost always his legs. If he can't break the pocket and scramble, he's in trouble. Every year or so he has 1 of these meltdown games where the pressure gets in his head and he totally loses his ability to process. He got no help from Brady but he needs to be better at anticipating pressure and getting the ball out.

You can't just spot a crap offence 20 points in the first half. Over 200 yards and 20 points in one half is unacceptable against any team, nevertheless playing against Davis Mills. Did it get better? For sure. But it's still not good enough on defence in totality

Oliver played very well the year immediately following the agreed upon extension and then had a step back year, that’s correct. He has wrecked havoc in every game this year where he was healthy. We cannot predict injuries, he’s largely been durable. In no way was his contract extension at $17M or $18M/yr a large financial failure given his overall play. He’s arguably our best defender and makes half of what other premium DTs make. Good contract.

Yeah that's a really tough catch over the defender while twisting back toward the sideline. They should have tried that more than once in the game. It would have worked if the ball were placed a little better.

I’m a lapsed Sabres fan. Terry Pegula is responsible for that. Now he’s doing it to my Bills fandom, as well. Someone upstream commented that they don’t want Beane picking the new HC… this team, with an all-time great QB, is *****. Can’t reach their goals with the current staff, that’s becoming clearer with each passing day, can’t rely on the owner to make a competent, informed hire if he actually does have the stones to do what needs to be done (which, if you follow the career of Kevyn Adams, is in serious doubt anyway).

The offense is a hot mess. The defense is even worse and has been all season. Sorry, but I just don't see it. Odds-wise I thought I saw a stat during the game last night where it said that if the Bills lose the game they would have an 87% chance of getting into the playoffs. I don't trust the stat just based on the way this team is playing, the coaching, the injuries, and everything else. I guess the only good news is that the Eagles game that I shelled out a ton of $$ for tickets to may actually mean a lot for the Bills and their chances to make the playoffs. Yeah, call all of this an overreaction but based on the body of games, play, and coaching decisions to date, I vote no. I really hope I'm wrong.

I didnt see a single blitz up until I quit watching in the 3rd.

And I am telling you I'm not going You're the best man I'll ever know There's no way I can ever go No, no, there's no way No, no, no, no way I'm living without you I'm not living without you I don't wanna be free I'm staying, I'm staying And you, and you You're gonna love me You're gonna love me

We are firmly on track for a 9-8 season.

Step 1 Hire a highly qualified forward thinking GM with the balls to say he won't take the job unless Pegula agrees to stay completely away from any football decision making. Preferably a GM with either proven past success or a really good resume building up to the position. Also give the GM full power to hire/fire the coach, Pegula's job is to write the checks and STFU. Otherwise, no deal on accepting a job. Step 2 Immediately fire McDummy and the entire staff save maybe Kromer Step 3 Bring in a progressive offensive minded HC/OC, and a strong highly productive DC Step 4 Purge the roster of all of the crappy contracts by trades and cuts and build up 2027 draft capital. Take the cap hits as much as possible in 2026 Step 5 Fire the entire training and nutritional staff (AGAIN), I'd go so far as to purge the doctors on staff as well. Step 6 Give Allen a year off to get his head straight, seriously, place him on IR in 2026 for mental reasons and throw the season with a roster full of JAGS to reset the cap. Give Mitch a season to showcase how much he sucks. They likely ain't doing crap in 2026 anyhow with the roster issues we have. Take the lumps and rebuild with youth in the 2027 draft and key UFA and trade acquisitions. Step 7 Rebuild with legit talent and speed and let Josh be Josh and stop f'n neutering him. Rebuild the defense with the size, grit, toughness, nastiness and speed required to compete in todays NFL. No more tweeners, undersized, injury prone slugs. We don't need a team full of McClappy choirboys. Extreme measures are necessary or Josh will likely never sniff a Super Bowl in Buffalo, much less win one. His clock is ticking.

Exactly why Beane and McDermott need to go. This organization desperately needs a shake up
