Or 3 - 7. Giants and Bucs

Sal is good for telling facts. Guy X did not practice today. Guy Z won't play today. That's about it. Unless you want a homer take.

I would add that Daboll held Allen accountable. As fans, we saw it on the sidelines at times. I think McD doesn't want Allen to run out of fear of injury. I get it to some degree but Allen needs to run some in order to give the defense something else to defend. Bills offense is too vanilla right now.

The Bills in general have not run the ball effectively in quite some time. They don't want Allen to run the ball. I get that concern but they didn't replace that aspect of the offense at all. So they signed a 33 yr old back and Harris who has an injury history and is on IR now. They removed a large part of Allen's game and he's struggling to adjust to it.

Personally, I thought Dorsey was going to be fired after the season because in season firings rarely accomplish much imo. In firing Dorsey, McD is admitting to a mistake he made and he has now corrected it. We agree on McD needing to fire Smiley which is another mistake by McD. McD has made very questionable if not bad hiring decisions. As many have pointed out, McD has made several questionable decisions on game day. Now he has added a new wrinkle of benching Cook for an extended time after he fumbled. I get benching him for a few plays or the rest of that possession. I think it was excessive and hurt the offense. McD doesn't hold himself accountable and he has lost and/or is losing the locker room for it. McD never owned 13 seconds. All he had to do is say "I ***** up." But he never did. McD is feeling the heat. High expectations for this team and they look bad.

There's more than one issue going on with the Bills. Firing Dorsey only solves some of it. Special Teams looks pretty bad too. Not just the last game either. McD fired the previous ST coordinator after 13 seconds and promoted Smiley to that position. McD deflecting blame. McD promoted Dorsey, a guy with no OC experience, and then fired him 1.5 seasons later. Not good for McD any way you look at it.

I'd do an outside hire for OC. A guy with previous NFL experience as an OC. As far as DC, I'd probably hire within. I believe defensive woes comes down to too many injuries and not enough quality depth.

I was thinking OT too. Both Dawkins and Brown will be free agents after 2024 season. I don't believe Bills will re-sign both and will want to upgrade one of them.

Kincaid is a very strong addition to the offense. Hopefully Beane will a draft a WR early this upcoming draft.

I don't pretend to know what changes will happen and when they'll happen but I truly don't think they will trade Allen. He hasn't been perfect, turns the ball over too much, and makes some bad decisions. If Dorsey gets fired, Allen would draw strong candidates for OC. If McD gets fired, Allen would draw strong candidates for HC. The last thing is most Bills fans love Allen. If they were trade him away, I think fans would lose their *****.

Bills oline struggles against good dlines and can't get run game going. Then they rely on Allen too much to make things happen. Too many dline picks and not enough oline picks. Too many bad picks too. Need a WR2 as well. Kincaid is good and he'll get better. I'm hoping Torrence plays better too.

I don't like my answer either lol

Unless he turns it around in a big way, I think Dorsey is gone after the season.

Terry Pegula is not going to fire McD. Even if they go 5 - 12 this season. I could see McD firing Dorsey but only after the season. McD isn't a quitter and he knows firing Dorsey in season will cause more distractions and create chaos. He just won't do it.

This is 25 minutes long. I only lasted 8 minutes. A bunch of words and catchy phrases. Nothing of substance. No wonder the offense is struggling.

Here you go. It's near the end. Question is from Jay Skurski I believe.

I think this is mostly it. Allen is feeling incredible pressure to make a play because the offense is struggling. Too many draft picks on defense and too much FA money on defense. Only this year did the first 2 picks go offense. Beane messed up at WR last year thinking Davis and McKenzie were WR2 and Wr3 capable. Beane missed on Cody Ford and he missed on Brown too. Kincaid and Torrence look good so far but now the defense is starting to age out. So they have holes on both sides of the ball.

Yep, plus he'll go out of his way to defend the Bills coaches and say the Bills are banged up. Meanwhile, Knox is the only guy on offense banged up.

Why McD promoted Dorsey to OC I'll never understand. He's never done it before last season. This roster has talent and they are under performing at an alarming rate. I don't care about all the stats that they racked up against garbage teams. The offense is totalling sputtering. They haven't played a complete game since the Dolphins which may be the high water mark.

It's at least Dorsey. His play calling is maddening and holding this team back.

True. That's 3 losses on the offense - Jets, Jags, and Bengals. Players and coaches.

This game sealed it for me. Need to get rid of Dorsey. He's holding the offense back. It's not all on him but you can't fire the players.

He looked overwhelmed and about to cry

The way they're playing, there are no gimmies. Not even the Broncos. Every game could be a dog fight.

The defense let us down against Cheaters. The other losses are on offense and/or coaching
