The question is, what happened to the offense from the beginning of the year? Was it figured out? After the bye it looked like a different team

The difference in the game was given this defensive look Burrow would throw it 5 yards for the first down. Josh Allen would launch a Hail Mary

Diggs said don't listen to him to Josh and Josh was referring to the play call from Dorsey. Dorsey has lost the locker room. Time to cut our losses. I can't imagine another year of this. No imagination.

Who cares? This guy is better than that guy and blah blah blah. Just win a Super Bowl in my lifetime and the rest will work itself out

That's an excuse. They were getting worked by Cincinnati the first time too. Pretty obvious to see

So how about next year they sneak into the playoffs and not worry about homefield and then turn it on? Worked for the Bengals last year and this year. Instead of going all out beginning of the year and everyone getting injured let's go like .500 until Dec

Can the Elephant play OL?

But Von put a fake Lombardi trophy in the locker room ?? And then he went back home and played video games

If I worked security I would have used a fire extinguisher on him and said NO SMOKING.

This is my opinion and it will upset some people but these are the facts: Josh does not take his job seriously. Here's why... 1. No diet plan. Has said he eats whatever he wants and his favorite is Bar Bill wings and beer. That's cool if you are a 40 year old poster on TBD but not cool if you are a world class athlete. 2. Does not work out. He said he doesn't lift weights with his upper body at all and said he is not a regular at the gym. That's fine if you don't want to get too bulky up top but that doesn't mean you don't work out at all. You can do band work, light weight, yoga, pilates, lots of ways to work your body without getting bulky. 3. Does not take advice from mentors. He has been told by Brady, Rodgers, pretty much every media person and fan that he needs to take care of his body and not take as many hits. Case Keenum said if he slid he would wear just his jock strap to a meeting and he that was one of the only times he slid this year. 4. Plays too much hero ball. This is a mix of him and the OC. It's arm arrogance as they say. Just because you can doesn't mean you should make some of these throws. Instead of taking the wide open RB in the flat, he will try and push the ball down the field even when nobody is open or he will hang on to the ball and scramble. This is not necessary when we are already winning or if it's early in the game. Just hit the RB for 5 yards and live to play another down. I think this is a mental thing and can be fixed. Josh was asked if he ever tried a sports psychologist or hypnotist and he said no. 5. Not focused. The year he made his big jump was the COVID year. He was in lockdown in socal with Jordan Palmer and trained every single day and had no distractions. This past off-season he was building his new house and traveling and shooting commercials and did not train in socal. If you check their social media then you can't imagine he was doing much of anything besides golfing and traveling. People on this forum won't like this but there is a book by the greatest player ever at Josh's position and it's more or less a blueprint on how to do it. It's called the TB12 Method and it gives every detail of what he does to be successful. Josh does none of that stuff. He's talented so why bother right? Or does it show that he's just not willing to put in the work?

Nothing will change. That's the problem. McDermott will say they will review their processes and maybe they hire a defensive quality control person who does nothing but get everyone's coffee. Next year will we even make it to the divisional round? We might be 1 and done in the playoffs. Can't count on the team to be down to their 3rd string QB every year for us to win the wildcard

Who won the coin toss? I missed it. But even when the Bengals win they take the ball. Their beat reporter said they saw when the offense sits too long the get out of rhythm so they always take the ball to start the game or the other team defers so either way they go on offense first. If we won the toss we should have taken the ball to throw them off

Poyer needs that money to pay for his wife's butt implants

You are right. He was even FASTER today at 2.5 flat. There are some really bad posters on this forum unfortunately. Josh at 3.2 and consistently among the longest holding onto the ball every season. No structure, just doing what he wants.

Burrow is the quickest time to throw in the entire NFL averaging 2.55 seconds. You couldn't be more wrong

False. You can win by playing within structure and completing simple 7 yard passes. The Bengals literally did it to us today. 3 step, throw the ball. Stop running around like a crazy person and launching it 50 yards when all you need is 2 for the first down

I wouldn't be surprised if Diggs makes some ultimatums this off-season. New OC or signing a big time WR. Something. There's no way he's going to go along with the same old thing next year

Josh wants to do crazy things. When you have a kid that acts out, he needs more discipline and structure. Not someone to enable them and say yea do whatever you want. It's chaos out there

No we have to keep drafting DL in the first 2 rounds so that they can do absolutely nothing vs a backup OL

Surprise cut, Tre White. He's just hugging guys at this point. He gets paid WAY too much for this kind of play

Offense scored 10 points. We weren't beating the Jets with Zack Wilson today

We are the Dolphins of the 90's. We have a great QB and we win a lot of games but it's all for not because there are better teams in the AFC and we won't get rid of our coach because everyone loves him. Purgatory indeed

Yes he grabbed his clothes and tried to leave before the rest of the team and coaches even got to the locker room. Duke Johnson had to basically drag him back in and then he left a few min later anyhow. That's pretty bad for a captain

Well that was a punch in the gut, a real dose of reality. Completely outplayed start to finish. The offensive and defensive game plan for this game was embarrassing. Not to mention McDermott has shown to be a terrible game manager with the game on the line. How many years are we going to put up with this? We are wasting Josh Allen's talent. No other top QB has a good defense like we do and the COACHES have blown it year after year. You can love this team and totally disagree with what the coaches are doing. Before the game Leslie Fraser was asked if he would do anything different this game based on how bad they looked at the start of the last game vs Cinci and he said no they will do what got them there. You mean the same defense that made Skylar Thompson look like a pro bowler? 3rd a 4 and they are 10 yards off the receivers? And on offense 3rd and short and they are throwing 40 yard bombs. Insanity. I don't think we have the coaches we need to get over the hump and this was the reality check we needed to have some really tough discussions this off-season and going forward. We are all happy to finally have a team that's a perennial playoff team but that's all they will ever be with this coaching staff.
