    I agree that there have been issues with Dorsey's work this season, but the performance of the offense last evening was on the players.  Specifically, the turnovers were perhaps the most important factor in the Bills' loss, and that is on the players.  Unfortunately, this wasn't a single player issue.  Cook, Davis and Allen all bore responsibility.  You can't bench all of them, and probably not any of them.   They all need to do a better job holding on to the football. 

    Don't you think that the discipline and focus needed to execute at a high level is the direct responsibility of the coordinator?

    Agree. And I'm especially concerned about McD's input when it comes to hiring a new OC. I tend to doubt that he would want a promising young face for fear that the guy would show him up. 

    I think you're incorrect about that. Dorsey is an "I'm the smartest guy in the room" type guy. Remember the temper tantrum? Yes, he is a bright young mind. He is exceptionally smart. But, anyone who thinks they're so much smarter than the rest is bound to fail. You also typically lose the respect of your subordinants too, because you simply do not listen to their input, or put them in the best position to take advantage of their strengths. Instead, you force them into positions that suit you.

     

    So, Dorsey tried to show-up McD and the other coaches every day. He also tried to do the same to his offense.

     

    Buh bye, Kenny!

    I think there are major issues between players and McDermott and until he is gone we're just spinning our wheels. I'm fine with giving him the rest of the season because aside from Leslie Frazier there's nobody "on staff" that I would want to take over on an interim basis. But he needs to go, barring some miracle turnaround. 

     

    The team peaked at 13 seconds and has gotten worse every year since. Now the wheels are falling off and eventually players are going to start talking, even if it's "anonymous sources" type stuff. 

     

    McDermott is done here, the only question is how much time we waste between now and a new voice in the locker room as HC. 

     

     

    You just can't clean house mid-season, especially during a short week. That's a move you make in the off season. Plus, no outside coach will talk to you until you have already moved on from the current guy. IMO, this will happen only if they continue to look like crap the rest of the way. We'll see soon enough.

  4. Most teams tend to play down to the level of the competition. It's a league-wide thing, and has been that way for many years.

     

    Additionally, you have to know that when bad teams face great teams they really step it up a notch. Its like their SuperBowl. This is especially true for division rivals and teams that have guys that were dissed by their former team.

    I defend this team endlessly.  I am fully on board with a new WR2 and OC.  Throw in a new RT as well. 

    Did you notice how well Van Demark played RT while he was in for Brown? He is your "new" RT, but likely not until 2024.

    Yeah, a MLB of a top ranked defense every year is completely meaningless. 

     

    Personally if I’m a good relationship, I don’t worry about my ex or take shots at her. I’m just happy and I think that’s what losers do. But I’m different I guess. 😉

    Have a little fun, man. Lighten up.
