Everyone in the organization needs to take a bite of this crap sandwich. Even Josh (who admittedly is the least to blame) needs to be accountable. I will just bring up an example that yesterday's game shed a light on. Josh does not like to do quick throws and hasn't his whole career with maybe the exception of Beasley. The O sure needed a bunch of them last night. Brady and O have to make schemes like that available for times like this. That is just one thing that shows the disconnect of the team in general. There isn't even anyone in the wings that could take over for Brady and that is on McDermott. Brady's playcalling obviously has so many "tells" that the opposing Ds might as well have the call sheet. He also has zero sense of stringing the plays together to keep the D honest. It really is bad. The deep handoff on 4th and 1 make me just shake my head and say, "He has to go". Whether Beane/McDermott around next year is an offseason question. Right now, the offense has to get fixed in 10 days.

He was doing the exact same thing against the Texans. Alot of plays. Something is off. Someone needs to look into this behaviour. Very fishy .

I know right, he set the edge even on pass plays, lol......and that edge setting works really well as RB run right past him all game long to the tune of 200 yards a game

I said elsewhere that Beane might want to trade Dawkins before next season. He still has a few years left and might fetch a second-round pick. Beane has got to do something different. If he sticks to his modus operandi he'll just get the same results, over and over: some hits, some misses, and a not-good-enough team. It's time to rebuild, overdue in fact. Trade Dawkins, Bernard, Knox, Coleman, maybe even Oliver, and cut the washed vets, including Rapp and Dequan. Trade up for and sign three or four impact players and build your team around them and a young, athletic core: Walker, Sanders, Bishop, Hancock, Hairston, Benford, Stone (I hope), Grable, Torrence, SVP, Cook, Hawes. But that's just half of what they need to do. We all know what the other half is. Does Beane have the moxie and vision to pull the trigger?

I think we are getting close to the territory of Beane being one of the worst GMs in the NFL. His draft picks, contract extensions, and lack of trading for proper pieces have been abysmal. Below are his highlights, and I am sure I am missing some but man, he is looking terrible right now. Trading for Diggs - worked out although hindsight obviously shows keeping the pick and drafting Jefferson was way better Drafting Allen - this is the only reason he still has a job Notable draft picks over his tenure - Spencer Brown, James Cook, Terrel Bernard, Torrence, Bishop, Shakir, Benford, Teller (traded)

Ripping him for not playing to the whistle throughout the game I get. What he does after the final whistle is irrelevant and I highly doubt he’s yucking it up in the locker room.

This is a very good point.

I can't help but think that if all the guys we sign are underperforming, that's on the coaching staff. Either the scheme fit isn't right or it's too complicated for them to process quickly. Either way this is becoming ridiculous. Poona Ford and Tim Settle leave Buffalo and became major contributors almost overnight to their respective teams. It's time to seriously look inward at the organization and figure out why guys are so hot and cold in this system.

I've always laughed watching Dion on this play. Guess it was funny because the play worked out. Not funny anymore. Getting sick of Dion and his happy go lucky attitude to be honest.

And Cook was the one made to wait the longest. You take away lucking into Josh Allen, and Brendan Beane is mediocre, at best, as a GM.

Landon Jackson had a 9.95 RAS. Does he look fast, quick or twitchy to you?

You do not keep a HC around because the next guy could be worse. That is living in your fears and settling for comfort over what is truly needed----change!!!

one disagreement -- the d was also good in the second half vs atl, and the exact same ish happened then. 7 and 8 are outmatched (i think they have health issues, in their defense) and the guys behind them are better players right now.

I dont think they can fire him at this point uintil the off-season. My hope is maybe they can hire an special asst to the offense or something along those lines. No idea who that person could be but an other brain getting involved in this O is desperately needed.

i made an effortpoast thread about my view, but this is pretty close to all of it. i'd say its cuz we play bad vs bad teams on the road, and that's done by us turning the ball over. if we had the exact game we just did vs hou and before that miami, but instead we didn't turn the ball over, we win bad looking games vs bad opponents but are sitting at 9-2. it's a very thin line.

Completely different topic, but Shakir is a weird one for me because he's clearly the best WR we have right now, but winning from the slot is also the easiest role vs. what we've asked Palmer, Gabe, Keon, etc. to do and despite all the good things Shakir brings to the table, he's never been particularly good at winning against man coverage even with the advantages that playing out of the slot afford you. We have way bigger fish to fry on this offense but I don't think it would be all that difficult to find an upgrade to Shakir too even though he's a pretty good player and again, the best of our bunch.

If I step back and look at this objectively, what I'm seeing in the AFC is the salary cap working how it's designed. Teams like the Pats, Colts, and Broncos are on the upswing because they went through the rebuilding cycle. On the other side, teams like the Chiefs, Bills, and Ravens are in a downward cycle due to aging rosters, late draft picks, and a lack of cap space. The main reason the Chiefs are struggling is that some of their elite talent (Kelce and Chris Jones) is aging out of the league. But they got KC three rings. The problem for all of us is that we didn't win during our window, which ran from 2020 to 2023. The Ravens are in a similar spot. The logical step for the Bills is to actually tear it ALL down and rebuild from nothing, take their lumps for 2-3 years, and come back with a new GM, HC, and franchise QB. You do that because this group will never win, and by the time they could be ready to actually contend again Josh Allen will be 34 at best. But that is a drastic step that I'm sure no one actually wants to take. I don't see a solution.

Phil Dokes and AC Cowlings showed more than Rousseau has.

You're probably 100% right actually, despite what "people in the building" say. Do you think any normal GM, who wasn't hired by the HC like Beane was, would spend their first five draft picks on defense and their sixth on a blocking TE when you have Josh Allen and no #1 WR?

"I'll agree that the available names this year aren't quite as inspiring as those two but that doesn't mean you hold onto a coach that you know for a fact is never going to get it done." No "inspiring" coaches available this season, but don't hold onto a coach that isn't going to "get it done". Pretty simple path from A to B. Fire Clappy now and see what they can hire.

i like to say we because i'm a fan and without the fans there is no anything for the team. i get they don't care about me, but i don't care about them outside of playing football for my entertainment, so it's even! anyhow, i think i covered most of this -- we aren't fun to watch because modern nfl football is more exciting but more frustrating, and our team might be the most like that in the nfl. to be clear, i don't think we do it and win the chip this season, or even win the division, but if this silly azz team just figures out to not play bad on the road (honestly, i wonder if the travel arrangements are an issue, remember our guys flew to london late? stuff like that matters), and honestly if the corches and allen get in their tiny heads that turning over the ball still matters, they can beat anyone we (see what i did there?) will play. i don't expect it to happen, but i find it interesting that the deeper we delve and the more science we have to understand this, john madden was always right and football is a simple thing at the end of the day.

And this dude was the sole player to call out Coleman. He should look within.
