This team is a hot mess.

I just genuinely don’t get this from watching any of the all22 and it’s gotten to the point where I feel like I’m taking crazy pills 😂. Maybe it’s me though but idk….I’m trying to be unbiased but maybe there’s some super deep rooted subliminal ‘I want the team to be good’ haha
the giants did an excellent job disguising coverages without busting any of them but there were plenty of counters to what they were doing drawn up on just about every pass play. There weren’t many plays where Dorsey had no answers14 pts versus a 1-5 team doesn't suggest successful counters. I see a offense that is structured for continual 3rd and longs.

While I don't buy into all the OP's assumptions, I have to agree that DC's have our number and Dorsey seems flummoxed to figure out a new attack. Let's see what the Pats dark lord dials up today and how Dorsey responds.

Ageed. I can't think of any elite teams with on elite receiving weapon and a bunch of mids!
lol, this place is bonkers
Other teams have receivers other than their #1 that actually get open. We do not. We force Josh to throw pinpoint lasers to covered guys repeatedly. If you're happy with our current weapons, maybe you should reexamine what it means to be bonkers.

Offer all of our other receivers, Elam and some picks. We will never beat elite teams with just Diggs and a collection of #3s.4s & 5 receivers.

Ouch, that sucks for Indy. Surprising with that OLine.

What does "not a number 2" even mean anymore?
Do you really mean he's not a number 1 playing the number 2 role like Jalen Waddle, Tee Higgins, Tyler Lockett or Devonta Smith?
What kind of production do you want out of your WR2? The vast majority of NFL teams would be thrilled to have a WR2 that puts up 800+ yards, 7 TD's & extends the field like Gabe does.
Even right now, he's ranked #27 in receiving yards (automatically putting him ahead of multiple #1's), tied for 4th place in TD's with 5 others (ahead of others like Jamar Chase, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Travis Kelce, Mike Evans, and many other WR1's, TE's, and RB's), and is only 61st in receptions.
I'd say he's more than adequate as a WR2, with the only issue being he's not as big a threat in the short-intermediate game as we'd like.
Ahead of #1's on bad teams with bad QB's is a pretty low bar. Simms is saying to be elite, we need better weapons for Josh. How many times are we going to see Josh dancing around, being chased because nobody is open. We haven't had a real complement to Diggs since Beasley. Davis ain't getting it done. He's a downfield guy who cannot get rapid separation. It used to be elite defenses could shut us down, now even the Giants can do it. Simms is spot on. We need better receivers.

Well, let's see if the O can find its ass with both hands this week. If they play like they have the past two weeks it's a bad trend.

Surtain was a top 10 pick who has lived up to the hype and had 3 seasons of control remaining. It would take a minimum of 2 first round picks to get him, especially from a team expected to draft 25+.
With a QB and receiver rich draft, I want our 1st rounder next year. With all the QB hungry teams, a great receiver is likely to be available to us. We need 1a receiver to complement and eventually replace Diggs.

Well, is he wrong?

Wish Beasley was 5 years younger.

Looks a bit like Tre did last year. Going to take him some time to find his burst and trust his knee.

Get open, give your QB an option, catch the ball, don't fumble.

Oh but he did scheme up a first down didn’t he? Follow the crowd…blame Knox instead of Dorsey….you know who can never be blamed….third rail….be careful…or is it the 17th rail?
He continually puts us in 3rd and long. That's crap scheming. Banging into the middle of the line with telegraphed runs is not scheming.

When the D made the stop on the 4th and 8 with minutes left, everyone I was with was saying endgame. I knew otherwise. I said the Bills would do two telegraphed runs for no yards and Eff up 3rd down and that the game is just as likely to end as a 16-14 L than a 16-9 win. That's because this team and this OC is incapable of closing out tight games. They continually let the other team back in. Really Dorsey, you can scheme up one damn first down to end that debacle of a game? The G-Men with no OL and a B/U QB took the ball some 60 yards to our 1 yard line in a little over a minute with smart play calls. Really, I am tired of Dorsey. He is not the guy to take us to the SB. We are losing yet another year of Josh's prime.

We need someone that can be a reliable target in the seams and over the middle. A slot WR.
We spent a lot of money on one TE and drafted another in the first round and I hoped they would be it but so far, no dice.
I’d say make a trade but the Bills seem to have a difficult time incorporating new skill players into their offense so I don’t think that is the answer.
100% A true slot receiver who gets separation quickly is what is needed. Despite the OP's request not to do this, Dorsey is clueless. His offense is basically get us into 3rd and long and hope Josh bails him out.

Terrible no call there
If I was a Giants fan I would be furious today
It would have been offsetting. Waller had his mitt in the defenders face.

When you read posts like this, it begins to make sense how the Bills got away with a 17 year drought.
Bills are probably the worst 4-2 team in the NFL and this guy is like “there’s too much pressure, they are just kids!”
this isn’t the LLWS.
No kidding. And spare me the jet lag, the Jags had no such issue. The play calling on the last drive, with just minutes to close the game out, was beyond pathetic. Daboll took a car wreck of an OLine with a b/u QB and pushed us to the 1 with a second left. This offense cannot close a game out. Dorsey has a top tier QB in his prime and seems clueless.

The Bills won. It didn't look anything like we hoped or expected, but they won.
Bills Mafia and the media are responding like it's a loss. Tony Dungy remarked postgame that Josh Allen sounded like a quarterback who lost.
There was a lot of talk about the Bills possibly benefiting from less pressure this year, but I don't think that's the case. I think there's a lot of internal and external pressure on this team to not only win but also win big and pretty.
I'm not sure this feeling exists in other NFL cities. I think we might need an attitude adjustment, or the weight of expectations could undo this team.
Pathetic offense is hampering this team.

I like the idea. Easy access w/o digging through threads.

We played 50 minutes of miserable lame offense. That wasn't luck. That was bad coaching, bad decisions and terrible execution. A jet lagged team that resorted to repeated uncharacteristic penalties to keep up. Our depleted and exhausted D got zero help from the offense with a OC who apparently thought a few more shotgun draw plays to Cook would do the trick.

Garbage time? If the Bills make the stop on that 3rd & 6 that Lawrence hit the big pass on the Bills have the ball with 2 minutes left needing a TD to win.
A modicum of offensive competence for 50 minutes of the game and we wouldn't be talking woulda, coulda, shouldas.
