I agree. To date, I’m not a fan of Ken Dorsey. Although I was happy with the game plan vs the pats. We have to take into consideration that it’s his first time calling plays. He’s learning and hopefully improving. Our season likely rests in his hands. He’s got a month to figure it out. if he doesn’t- McD may have to pull the plug on this experiment

Sure….you’d like to talk about contenders…. How about we talk about champions. You know, the team that actually wins the super bowl.

We need a balance- period. Without it, this offense isn’t equipped to pass all game. We lack consistent playmakers in the pass game and our OL can’t pass block to save their lives. For this season at least, if we want to win the SB, it’ll be with a balanced offense and imo, James Cook will have to become a major threat catching the ball out of the backfield. I don’t want to see motors 17 millimeter hands attempting to catch passes many more times. (And I love motor….but cook has shown that he can be special in catching the ball. Can Dorsey scheme it is the question.

That’s the point

I agree with everything until the bolded. If you really believe the offense is lacking because we lack talent at RB, you’ve got it all wrong. That’s just an awful take. Doesn’t get much worse. You’re on point with the rest though. P.S.- we used a 2nd rd pick on james cook. The 3rd RB taken in the draft.

I’m not agreeing or disagreeing with your statement, but I thought I’d take a look. Our 1st down plays: pass for 6 mckenzie run for 7 incomplete pass incomplete pass Josh allen run for 0 sacked Cook run for 1 pass for 5 motor run for 0 pass for 7 allen run for 11 Pass for 24 TD incomplete pass pass for 6 pass for 4 allen run for 5 TD Pass for 17 Pass for 9 11 passes- 8-12 all 8 comps were over 4 yards. 6 rushes- 3 of them were for 5 yards or more with 1 TD 4th qtr- with a 2 score lead- motor rush for 16 motor rush for 4 motor rush for 1 cook rush for -2 allen pass incomplete for the game- 11 rushes on 1st down- 5 we’re 4 yards or more. Our OL was getting obliterated in pass protection all day. Our in blocking isn’t “good” per say, but our pass blocking is atrocious, which is slightly worse than our playmakers ability to catch the ball. 2 things have to go right in the run game- run blocking and rb follow the blocks 4 things have to go right in the passing game- pass protection, accurate pass, pass target gain a little separation, pass target catch the dam ball. Putting all 3 together in the passing game has been rare of late. Ideally, I’d rather pass around 58% to run 42% but the pass game is clearly struggling to put together complete plays- it seems as if either the pass pro breaks down, Josh throws inaccurately or the pass target can’t get separation or drops the pass. In the last 7 games, he’s finished with a pass comp% under 60 4 times. We need to fix this- but can we fix that this season with a roster of WR (other than Diggs) that can’t be trusted? Can we fix OLmen that can’t pass block? If we can’t fix it this year, we can still win if we can figure out how to run the ball more effectively. That will help the pass protection and also force teams to bracket Diggs less. our defense is still very good. Good enough to win a SB with Josh allen and a balanced O. It just needs to figure out 3rd and long. Fast.

They run block a helluva lot better than they’ve been pass blocking.

The fact that he can’t beat out Dane is a big problem. Maybe it’s just the way McD handles his rookies…..but it’s alarming considering Danes level of play this year

That’s not even close to the worst injury an athlete can have

💯

I thought today was easily Ajs best game as a pro. Keep it up 57, we need you

He’s not becoming a good starting end. He was a good starting DE last season. He’s becoming elite

Yup. That’s what smart teams will do. It’s up to knox and the RBs to get open or Josh to scramble. 20M a year for Cooper is too steep imo. We should draft at least 1 wr in the first 2 rounds and sign a value FA or two, maybe a trade. Cap wise, adding another WR making 20M…..ehhhhh. We’d be done big trouble down the road

He’ll be back for the bills game I’m sure.

The entire DL dominated Milano and Edmunds dominated.

Another great game for Shaq. The front 7 dominated today. all of their 3rd downs were great timing pitch and catches

Seriously. Unless they step it up, we need a new #2 and 3 wR next season

Dorsey’s best playcalling of the game

KD is failing this game.

I thought the weather doesn’t affect passing?

Weather doesn’t affect throws

KD is the key today imo. Build on the Pats game.

God no!!!

I think they have a better chance of giving them a rash
