Ty can be on the field the same time as Cook. in fact shifting cook or johsnon or both out of the backfield can create chaos. especially in a heavy TE set which we can run. 3rd and 3: Knox, Hawes, Johnson, Cook, Gilliam lined up in I-formation, Hawes on the right, with Gilliam has a right wing, Josh under center like it's a power run. shift to shotgun, Gilliam drops back off the line, Cook and Johnson go out wide, Cook to the right off line, Knox steps up to the line, Johnson goes off Knox. The snap of the ball you have Cook to run a leak route, Hawes set the edge to have Josh peel right, Gilliam stepping up to block, Johnson setting up a slide screen for a back end drop off if Knox doesn't get open he can lead block a smal lscreen... josh can just run or drop off the pass to anyone there is no innovation with putting our best talent on the field.

i just don't trust this defense and haven't since 13 seconds. last year against the chiefs it took us 2.5 quarters to get it right. it's a damn shame

McKenzie was the best to run his mouth It's also interesting that so many of the guys brought back and nothing comes out. Phillips is a process guy, white was a process guy who talked but doesn't seem to now (job security I reckon) and Poyer was certainly one of the most loose and nothing is much getting out now.

going off your other comment, as well.... you'd think if the Bills needed an OC they could get 30 resumes by 4pm with Allen as the QB but yet you do not hear a lot about people wanting to work with McDermott. You don't hear the raving you do for other coaches out there like McVay, Harbaugh, or many other coaches out there. You do not hear bad things but you just do not hear anything! that's just as telling.

no he didn't immediately. dennison liked Peterman. dennison got laughed out of the league. mcd put him back in the game after half to have him throw a pick immediately. he didn't go immediately back to taylor revisionist history to go so far on all of this. taylor was playing poorly but to think Peterman gave us any other better shot is terrible coaching and evaluation not just on dennison but on McD.

that hit piece was accurate by players who left the team. Hughes hated McD and knew he was full of crap. a few other scorned lovers in there and the WR coach who moved on down to Miami (I think it was). people who were good at their jobs moved on or gracefully backed out from McD (Frazier) before they could be further scapegoated. Ty Dunne's piece was not wrong and some players buy in to his clappy mccrappy but we don't need buy in boys or boy scouts. it can go both ways, as you mentioned, McDaniel has lost his team for example. McDermott lost his team a few times but has Josh. The whole reason Ken Dorsey gut fired was a players only meeting that McD did not want to acknowledge. they met and decided enough was enough. it was not Diggs who led it either, for the record. i think he was even mentioned as not going or staying long. it was a few key players and even Ty Johnson. the leaders of the offense went to McD to say Dorsey had to go after the Bengals game before the bye. McD didn't listen and even rode the bye week without doing anything. the players gave up on him and then with no spirit dropped to the Broncos. McD finally listened to his team and canned Dorsey. McD did not want to change coordinators again, he did not want to show he made a mistake after losing Daboll who some players had wanted to assume the role. Daboll had a serious influence on this team and not just the offense. McD's pride to show he made the right call with Dorsey hurt this team. and i was big fan of Dorsey getting the job.

i don't think miserable is fair for him. remember, he has worked in a professional sports office before without going too far to out him. he has a high bar for his expectations and it is fair imo.

@Kirby Jackson a little support here... guy doesn't believe that McD lost the locker room over Peterman starting against the Chargers or the refusal to bench him. nor that McD lost the players after the scapegoat 13 seconds thus causing us to move on from a veteran who was the main voice of the rebellion. you and i both had separate confirmation of both of these instances - you even going so far as to mention players were texting at halftime they were pissed.

only if there is sausage

Again it's funny to me.. This type of mindset in these type of beliefs come from the folks who go on a great first date with a girl. They swear she's really into him. Go get a second date, but you know, "just as friends." The date will end with I had a really good time. Yep, for many things a good time is good enough but when it comes to something where it matters I don't want a hog on the doorstep and a lonely ride home listening to Delilah. There are many things in life we can accept as mediocre or less than ideal. These may be not getting that big raise at work, or losing a rec kickball game, or your kid getting a D on a math test There are some things that we shouldn't settle for like casual fandom. As a fan we're just a spectator and nothing more if that's all we want to do cool. We should just show up and throw money at the product. I can happily do that but I won't invest myself in it. Right now we have a championship caliber talent at quarterback and I will not accept anything else as a fan of this long-suffering franchise. I'm tired of excuses. The doorstep isn't going to do it for me. Nothing short of waking up in bed with Josh in the morning and having Haley make us pancakes will work for me.

Well of course Bill's marketing has to sell it as all this is the guy we really wanted and how great it is to finally get the guy they had their sites on the whole time. Yeah, I'm sure if Marvin Harrison Jr was still there when the Bills pick they had their target on Coleman all along and would have passed up Harrison Jr. Lol

I will never buy that. On face value yes I'm sure that was said. I'm sure it was something like a list of 8 receivers Josh liked. I'm sure keon Coleman was on the bottom of that list with much better talents but Josh did not have someone like Xavier worthy or Xavier leggett on there. He probably had lad McConky or ricky persal, too. They had lower grades per some. Leggette and worthy were not what this team needed. The bills gambled and traded back to get a guy. It was the wrong guy.

if we don't take shots we won't make one. that isn't to say we should keep throwing money and contracts at guys with 3rd tier ability but we need to shoot real shots. people thinking Palmer was due for a big night is silly. i looked - he was projected by sports books to not even get 20 yards. where we messed up was drafting Kincaid. he's going to be like what we saw last night with Kyle Pitts. a guy not good enough at catching to be a WR so they call him a TE and hope he is covered by linebackers or forgotten. kincaid will be valuable for us because he's the tallest guy in a shallow pool but he wasn't where we needed to have focused and it's worse now with jackson hawes showing potential. we had knox who had shown up. in order to fix the kincaid problem we went into the draft to grab a WR....and ended up moving down to get a wildly overrated Coleman without speed or elite tools to be a #1 at any point in his projection. a #2 or #3 and maybe just a big slot guy. i can't say who we should have drafted but we made a mistake drafting kincaid and coleman. even if Kincaid turns out to be a HOF'er he was the wrong pick for us. (and he will only get to be a HOF if we get a top WR beside him).

Sadly, as soon as there is another outbreak of attack in the ME (aka when the Muslims go on a "rogue" attack) the left will celebrate that Trump didn't solve anything or create peace. Israel could get carpet bombed by Syria tomorrow and then knock out the Syrian air bases that supported it. The left: "Trump caused more war! How dare Israel attack when they promised peace!"

Edmunds wasn't the weakest link he was just the easiest to blame. he was big and durable. milano always had the higher ceiling and was going to surpass him but his durability due to size was always a concern. edmunds + milano + a hybrid nickel/monster (shaq thompson) was waht the team always had in mind but went the other way getting taron johnson as the nickel who was too small to help the run.

there is a difference here. Josh Allen is a respectable person. Tom Brady is a POS. we averaged more yards per pass as a team when he was on the field, too. douglas did a lot of good on defense just as well.

of course it is hyperbole but can you understand the sentiment? many of us love Josh Allen more than the Bills/team itself. we want him to succeed as much or more than anyone else on this team.

i would until josh retired/left sf. tyrod is available? Git'r done beane11111!!!!

its amazing how delulu some fans are to eyeroll we need help on offense. the loser mentality of merely going to the dance is good enough for some i guess. it's always nice to show up. it takes a special type to know how to bag the homecoming queen.

If we lose to the Panthers the only trade I want to see is with SF. Josh Allen for a 1st. Let him go with a competent organization. But back to your premise if we get Olave I want another WR, too. Ridley and Olave - sending Samuel or Davis or someone else young would be fine - is what i would take.

It's the entire organization. Not just Beane. It's McD. Beane has a chance to fix somethings but he has too much to fix to have a chance. We need a WR or two right now. Hairston, Ogajobe, Hochte, and others can make a difference when they return. Rosseau, Bernard, and Shakir all deserved their contracts but need to step up. The OL came out blasting the Falcons in the second half. We looked like we were gonna start the 3Q annew with a different purpose. Power running with a dash of simplicity for Josh. We came in and dominated to a TD. Then pulled Cook. It was kind bottling.

we do not have a valid outside threat beyond Palmer who's fragile and not a bonafide #1 target, Samuel who is not either, and Davis who is a good #3. We need a real #1. we need to acquire one. Coleman is a #2 inside slot; Shakir and Coleman need to be in the slot. #1 WR (Olave?) - Kincaid - Coleman (slot) - Shakir (slot) Allen - Cook Cook and Allen need to be on the field every play.

when i've been in management i've always been aware of the projects my team works on and always been open door policy to discuss things when employees felt the need to come in and this was important. the open door policy for me applied to them because when i became concerned over the direction, lack of attention to detail, or any specific points of my team i would use their open door to review the issues. mcdermott is not minding to his coordinators and keeps getting immature coordinators who always take the blame. frazier is the only experienced coordinator to work under mcdermott and see the writing on the wall to "retire." frazier had his defense taken from him and meddled with when it mattered and in the chiefs game it 100% showed and this is why the defense got so pissy in reaction. this is why Hughes was openly vocal in the locker room, why fights were happening in the locker room after the game. mcd preached accountability and didn't take any when he meddled in it. further, he changed the play on the kickoff without letting the ST coach do it which is why we kicked deep when the coverage team was told to cover squib. players were pissed because mcd caused that outcome and didn't step up and say he did poorly to the media and let everyone take the blame. in the lockerroom he didn't acknowledge his problems and just gave a cheesy mcd statement - and palyers were pissed. o vs. d. i forget the OL but he was ready to throw fists and hughes was pissed at the defensive staff, too. the same story was with dabol. dabol saw mcd was a fraud and left. remember the chargers peterman game? the team leaders went to mcd and said they did not like having peterman start but dennison pushed mcd to do it and mcd didn't listen to his team. in the halftime lockerroom the team was near mutiny when it was found out that pterman would start. players texting people that they were confused and don't get it. peterman comes out and mcd kept saying trust the process and backed peterman when his entire team gave up on him. in the end mcd used dennison as the scapegoat for mcd unwilling to make the call or trust his team.

he didn't finish after that. he just started clapping then applied sunscreen and adjusted his hat.

No, I know he did. Laugh all you want but maybe you're new here and don't know
