Hahaha yup

It wasn’t a brawl…it was some shouting in the tunnel.

I should change this thread title to “this was an EXCELLENT week for Beane”. Rasul and Linval have been huge gets and I still think Fournette will help this team at some point this season too.

I started calling for this a month ago… Been great watching Shakir just keep making plays, been high on him since before the draft.

Yeah it takes 2 good WRs to make up for Jefferson which sucks

I mean Devin was good here, had an excellent career YPC. Fans hated on him for no reason and wanted him gone.

But my fantasy team hasn't 😡

Exactly and I am stunned that this even has to be explained

Yeah and Dan Orlovsky did multiple nice break downs actually of how Dorsey had motion without purpose. Which was a big issue in his eyes where we are motioning guys and then not using the information gained from the motion to attack the defense and would just simply run a play. And I think that was the heart of Dorsey's failures...he ran plays, not an offense. He was a first time OC...he entered the job without having a proven offensive scheme and design. It reminds me of writing a cookbook before you have cooked any of the recipes. Everything about our offense under Dorsey felt a lot more like a script than a fluid offense coaching, motioning, attacking, and adjusting to the defense in front of them. When Dorsey was asked why he wasn't going to the up tempo offense earlier and more often, his answer to why he switches to a slow it down style was to "not be predictable". Ironically, that might be the most predictable thing about him.

I absolutely would have done it after the Giants game, but the nail in the coffin should have bene the Pats game when he for the 2nd week in a row ran Murray from shotgun on 3rd and goal inside the 1 and again lost yards and then we came away with no points on a failed 4th down attempt. We just QB sneak there we likely score as you got 2 tries at it. And we lost that game by one score...so that could have been the difference in the game. I would have relieved him of his play calling duties at half time then fired him the next day. I mean to do it 2 weeks in a row was mind blowing.

All good, this is just where I think we see him through different lenses. I am not a McD apologist, and I do think that his job going into next season should be in question depending on how the rest of this season goes. But, also, I don't have this underlying disdain for him that other posters do and take things in through that lens. So I don't at all get these types of impressions from him and I watch just about every press conference and interview with him, other coaches, and our key players every week.

I watched all the press conferences and interviews of McD (including this one), the players, Brady, Frazier, etc all season and especially the last few weeks and through Dorseys firing. And some things have really stood out for me and these are some of the impressions I cam away with: McD and the team want to see Josh use his legs more and the emphasis on the lack of running seems to be more Dorsey centric. McD and multiple people have alluded to getting his legs more involved and that threat for the defense to have to account for. They don't want him to take unnecessary damage, but the threat of him running is a huge part of what makes him special and they know that. Dorsey led offense just didn't have the same energy and fun which may have to do with the intensity and seriousness of Dorsey. Josh Allen has had the emotion coached out of him in an attempt to tame the turnovers and it has backfired. Josh himself has talked about this and everyone including McD has talked about getting that fire, intensity, and swagger back for Josh. McD wanted to be an aggressive offense, but Dorsey's attempt to fix the offense was to try and switch up from up tempo to slow it down football through out the games which just wasn't working. The offense had become predictable and wasn't putting our guys consistently in the best positions for success. I don't know if Joe Brady is the answer...but I am more than ever convinced he was 100% not the answer and the switch needed to be made. The last 6 weeks this offense has averaged more than 14 PPG less than it did the first 4 weeks. Thats an insane drop when there were no injuries involved and the change was inevitable. Personally, it should have happened sooner, but in season changes are tough decisions so I get the hesitation.

No disrespect, but I don't see that at all, in fact, seems to be quite the opposite. This statement feels more like a view point of someone who already wants McD gone who will take any and everything in with a negative lens to confirm that negative bias.

What does your comments above have to do with what you responded to? Answer...nothing. And I didn't say a single word of what you just wrote either. So this reply makes absolutely zero sense to the post you are replying to.

Well that is one less team we need to worry about tie breaker issues on.

The lengths this board goes to in regards to making up false narratives to fill their bias opinions and negativity never ceases to amaze me.

Good news is this that this mock draft won't remotely resemble that actual draft, they never do. So I wouldn't put any stock into where we "need" to be in the draft for X position or player based on early mocks not remotely accurate to what will actually happen.

Funny thing is I know Phil...and I can tell you there is no interest for him in getting back into sports for him right now, so yeah not gonna work out lol

I have a similar dilemma in one league...Hurts vs KC and that stingy defense or Howell against the sad Giants. Right now I have Howell in my lineup

These days this board is like 95% made up false narrative and hysteria…3.5% assumption or speculation…1.5% factual substance.

What this is more of an indicator of is exactly why Josh is both special and can throw some INT's. There are not a lot of guys in the NFL who can make this throw, maybe only Allen and Mahomes can do it with any consistency. Most other QB's this is a guaranteed turnover as the margin of error is tiny and you need the arm and athleticism to even make it possible without it being a turnover. When Allen is on, he hits these all day and so easy that it's almost missed just how incredible and difficult of a throw it was. When he is off by even a hair or late by even a hair this would be one of his INT plays. And the reality is Josh makes a LOT of these throws...and he succeeds way more often than doesn't on them. It is what makes him special. What makes him turnover prone is how OFTEN he HAS to attempt these throws because of the offense. That does not absolve Allen at all on some of his decisions, but the fact is, when the play design, scheme, etc is so easy to defend, it forces Allen to make more of these heroic throws. Look at Mahomes, he has the ability to make most of the same insane throws Allen does, he is just forced to do it less often than Allen is either from scheme, design, predictability, pass protection, etc. I am really hoping to see some more creativity and scheming to get guys open for easier and rhythmic throws by Allen instead of rolling out and having to fling a mind blowing pass so often.

Lets put an end to this train before the false narrative train leaves the station. Madden MUT has seasons. Every season has a different cover athlete. This happens every year. This literally has 0 to do with Josh Allen. Josh Allen is still the cover on the print edition.

My only point is that his brothers text have not at all been representative of Stefons thoughts thus far, he has been wrong every time and just tweeting what he wants, not what Stefon wants. So to jump to a conclusion that his tweets (which happeend before Stef could have even spoken to him as Stef was still with the team on Monday night football) were Stefs words has no logic behind it other than creating a narrative without any substance.

You realize his brother was tweeting to get his bro to Dallas BEFORE Diggs signed an extension keeping him in Buffalo long enough to retire there right? And yet Stef still signed his extension to stay. His brothers tweets mean nothing, why are people trying force and create narratives all the time? Stef is literally causing no waves of any kind yet this narrative persists. Except the tweets happened while Stef was still with the team meaning he couldn’t have spoken to Trevon before he tweeted that.

No disrespect but that is evidence of nothing. That’s another opinion piece
