Glad the analysis proves what I think a lot of us felt while watching. “what the heck is he doing”

We may need a 3 up 3 down Bye Week update because right now the available information on Brady’s response to criticism on cute plays and Cook would be him taking 1. Down 2. Down 3.Down! I don’t have any ups because I haven’t heard a darn thing making me feel like an upswing in results is on our way.

This is devolving into an old man odd injury post but I have definitely gotten injured in simple non-contact movements. I subscribe to the concept for the professional that their injury is a timer that’s going to go off regardless and that it was not preventable. You add so much muscle and weight and contact to joints and soft tissue not meant to withstand it and it’s just a matter of time. Also I am an old man so no offense was intended.

Sounds like you are and have been dialed in. So, and this is a very sincere ask, who’s the duo you want to replace them that can do what we all want them to do? I have to be honest I don’t know who that would be in the slightest.

That at least kept the ball in your best players hands but yes exactly. These idiotic sideways handoffs that they can’t complete to some of your lesser talented skill players takes the cake though. How! How! How! Is James Cook not on the field for EVERY short yardage play. I mean if there is a guy that might break it off into long yardage isn’t he one of them? I mean the dumb flip toss Josh did last night wasn’t even to Cook….talk about adding stupidity to a moronic situation. Ok I think that might have been my 10th post about this and I am starting to annoy myself with it. Be well Bills Mafia and enjoy the bye. GO BILLS when we get back!

Yeah I liked everybody eats when they would work what’s working until it slowed down and then they’d feed someone else for a minute. Last week before their first lost I read Brady said he knew they needed to get Ray Davis more involved…I immediately had concerns that they’d force it even though James Cook had been on fire. Absolutely maddening philosophy being forced instead of being organic.

Offense and offense!

One of the most glaring and concerning topics that has been brought up that is completely self inflicted is the decision making of coaching staff on offense to take James Cook off the field and run plays that are not bread and butter short yardage plays. Now this problem has been on display, at a minimum, THREE times with colossal failures. You’d think a highly paid and regarded OC wouldn’t need more than one time to realize that should be eliminated from the play book. But nope they went back to it 2 more times. Why I say that’s one of the most glaring is that it shows a complete lack of self awareness and self regulation of your decision makers. This then makes all other adjustment needs questionable…can they recognize the need. Are they able to be self critical? The defense never quit yesterday and they had some back up guys come in and play hard. The offense did not have that. Worse it looked like Josh had had enough. The blue print to fluster him appears to have been written. Do they have the brains to adjust to make sure it’s not printed in ink?

Again I agree to a point here. Brady’s choice to not continue to feature Cook and those absolutely horrendous sideways play calls on short yardage got to have it is unforgivable.

Agree to a point. But the offense had plenty of time and opportunities to just do what they are expected to do any bad decisions by Brady and Josh cost them the game.

Last week I was ticked off at the Bills for not being ready to play at home. This week is just demoralizing and makes me dread the other prime time games this team has slated against better opponents.

Soul searching bye week. Brutal decisions by guys we need to be better. some of the backups played their tails off

Kick the damn field goal with time on the clock.

Yeah but are they actually difference makers because right now there seems to be issues on both sides of the ball. It didn’t sound like those guys really made the team appreciably better than what they had from last year and the year before. Also we went from 30 points per game to now only 20 and 14. Are we really better this year…

I think the fact that they didn’t really do anything this offseason to get better is finally on FULL display.
