McDermott and Babich? A plus tonight. To do this without Bernard, Taron and Milano against a great offence is beyond impressive

I get it, bills are up big. But this play calling straight up sucks tonight outside of the 4th and 3 call to cook on the 1st TD

It's like, if you wanna run it , fine. But it's the same damn run every single time. So frustrating

It's so damn frustrating. If I can sit on my couch and know play is coming, I'm sure professional defensive coordinators can figure it out

That 2nd and 7 run. Why don't Joe Brady just announce it to Miami that they are running up the middle?

Rasul Douglas is a dog

Just need to change up the 1st down run tendency. 1st drive they went more pass heavy and it worked. now back to back drives where they hammer the run on 1st downs and sets them up in 2nd and long/medium

Bills run it almost every 1st down... I guess last week wasn't setting things up. Got To be less predictable

And what is McDermott doing punting? Your defence is tired. You lost Bernard. Go for it

Shot gun 3rd and inches with 0 play action. Like what are we doing here??

Bend but "don't break" They can't help themselves

Why are the bills playing soft zone on 3rd and 4 near the red zone

LFG Joe Brady what a call!!

To jump in this- Miami is much better than the drought Bills and have made the playoffs the last 3 years I believe? And Tom Brady/BB had 4 rings at that time. While the Bills are a good team now, they weren't close to being on the Pats level, and Miami is much better than the Bills drought years

For sure, exactly what I was saying - like if achane is out, that hurts them. But I don't think the mostert injury will hurt them much

I don't think the mostert injury will hurt Miami. Shanahan/Mcdaniel tree can plug and play running backs. If Achane is out, that's a different story as they used him in the slot a lot last week

The contract structure looks great. Next year, small cap hit. 2026 they can cut him if he isn;t good with little dead cap, or if he is playing good, can extend him and lower the 19 mil cap hit for the 2026 season

72 mil with only 20 guaranteed? I don't think I have ever seen such a big discrepency between the contract and actual guaranteed money

If i am not mistaken, I think Knox took a paycut this year for more job security in 2025. I am not 100 percent sure of the contract details, but I believe I remember hearing that Knox is basically on the team for 2025. Edit: ya if I am reading it correctly, his cap hit is 14 mil next year but his dead cap would be 16 so he is on the team barring anything crazy https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/_/id/29132/dawson-knox

Thanks for sharing this, as this validates some of my criticism with Brady. Way too predictable on 1st down, setting up 2nd and 3rd and longs. And even running on 2nd and 1 every single time. I hope it's just setting things up, cause I thought a lot of his play calls were vanilla and predictable

I'm not a Diggs fan, but I would confidently say there's a 0 percent chance he dropped the ball on purpose

I will never complain when the bills ask Josh to do a lot and I'm all for putting the ball in his hands. He is a Ferrari. Treat him like such and don't treat him like a Hyundai

How do you know the answer was no? There was one shot of McDermott looking at the play sheet , talking into the mic. He was either calling plays, or at the very least had an influence on what he wanted to do. Hey maybe you're right and this is to set things up down the road. I'm just calling it how I saw it for yesterday's game and I thought a lot of sequences were unacceptable. (Like at the end of the game) I am 100 percent relaxed. I am not panicking. I'm happy about the win. All I was saying is the bills coordinators gotta get better. Because personally , I was disappointed in them. If you were happy with them, all good and we will agree to disagree

Ok so you agree smiley wasn't good. The defence stepped up for sure- But was it Babich or McDermott? Remember my post is not on how the game went, it's how the coordinators performed. If you think it was MCD who more changed things around (like I do) , then you would be agreeing with me that Babich (the coordinator) wasn't on because the 1st half was a disaster For Brady- 16 runs to 5 first passes on 1st downs. 5 targets combined for Shakir and Kincaid, your two best weapons. And 5 straight runs when you're trying to win the game and Josh Allen is your QB. (Imagine Reid not giving Mahomes a chance to throw?) 34 points is 34 points I get it, but it didn't tell the whole story as Josh played out of his mind and saved a lot of 2nd and 3rd and longs because Brady stubbornly kept running the ball on 1st downs

Ya 100 percent agreed. 1st half it worked well. But seemed like Arizona adjusted in the 2nd half and the bills run game was mostly a non factor, but they kept running it anyways. PAs and screens would have been perfect to your point
