Well excuse me but there was an interview with Dorsey this week where he talked about his involvement. And, another on where McD talks about his role. And, most honest observers have noticed a change in the Bills offensive style. You are just full of yourself as usual.

Oh I must have missed them going for it on 4th down

Not true. It got close because McD wouldn't drive the dagger in and let the offense convert on 4&2 or 4&3 and he was chirping in the headset to Dorsey about playing conservatively. He has become way to involved in the offense. Absolutely 100% correct.

The 3 punts in Bucs territory in the second half were mind boggling. I get one of them, but it was just overly conservative football that has been disproven in the modern era of football. I mean Doug Marrone would punt from the 32, but the guys who win as coaches now have shown that strategy to be BS. Drive the dagger in as the percentages say, do not play the protect the defense, field position game.

Yeah we committed some stupid penalties. Yeah we had some bad bounces. But, coaching made that game way closer then it should have been.

Glad we won. McDermott made the game close.

Are Davis and Elam sitting out for a trade? trades?? Hmmm he's right inactives will be interesting if Norman and Isabella are dressing.

How I see it as well! Although maybe I'm dumb, I still hope they pull something amazing before the deadline.

I could care less nor do I think the Bills should about Derrick Henry. Hopkins on the other hand would make a HUGE difference. I'd save the resources spent on Henry for something on the defensive side.

Great Post! I've not heard this anywhere else and it makes so much sense.

I could tell you a story about Josh's dad being drunk and what he really thinks about Ken Dorsey. But, I won't because that would be in appropriate.

This is the problem, the critics comparing him to Mahomes as if the context was neutral. There aren't any QBs that stand up to that.

No one is above criticism, he stunk week 1, he wasn't great on Sunday. What I can't stand is the people who only understand football through the lens of the QB. What I also find ridiculous is it has to be an either or. There are alot of problems with this team right now. And, trying to fix them requires prioritization. The critics of Allen act like he fixes it and all is well. Not true. That is all.

Nothing on this team is fine. Especially the Defense who was put in a position to win and failed badly against as weak an opponent as they'll see on offense.

McDermott has his finger prints all over this offense right now and was confirmed yesterday by both he and Dorsey. Telling Josh not to bother making that extra key first down 2-3x a game is killing this offense. Just keep working with him to slide and get OB. Don't try to make him Troy Aikman.

I don't know, thought of that, but no reason to believe they didn't. I'd be fine with that too. Sometimes the best way to deal with a defensive weakness is to prop up the offense. Trade for one of these guys, use more 3wides, insert Morris as blocking TE in 12 form and continue developing Kincaid. Oh and allow Josh to scramble and slide for an additional 2-3 key FDs every game.

Adam Thielen, despite being 33, would help this team, Offense and Allen right now. In 3 wide with Diggs and Davis as #3 and Thielen filling Beasley role we could focus on Defense.

I think the 2 biggest issues related to this plan are (which I would love much of it): 1. The narrative will end up being,and there's nothing that can be done about it, about the injuries on the defensive side of the ball. 2. To which McBeane will gladly play up and get rid of Dorsey at seasons end as the scape goat. IMO McDermott has his hands all over this offense right now, and from listening to Dorsey I know I'm right. I mean does anybody else think we miss those 2-3 First Downs Josh used to scramble for each game like Mahomes does? Instead of telling him not to run they should have continued working on him sliding and getting out of bounds. People wonder why he looks miserable, it's because he's being asked to not be himself. And, furthermore IMO McD is way to quick to bash the offense after games and lessen the accountability of his defense. That is all.

Maybe we should trade Josh to Chicago for the first 2 picks and Justin Fields -problem solved offense will sizzle

No excuse just presenting the analytics. Could it be the O has been better than you think if whole game is taken into account?

They need to ,the defense has been miserable since the injuries, and had a questionable game plan against Jones yesterday.

McD has the injury excuse, but quite frankly his defense is performing poorly by all the defensive measures in the last 3 weeks since the injuries. Draft choices sucking is also a major contributor to the lack of depth, not to mention one awful game plan yesterday against Jones.

I just find it interesting that a data report of EPA for NFL offenses the last 3 weeks has Bills 2nd behind KC. Meanwhile, The Milanoless, Treless, Daquonless D ranks at or near the bottom in everything. Food for thought huh

And there is this. https://x.com/LordReebs/status/1716519121246937242?s=20

I have a couple questions to the Josh being the problem people. Do you think we will ever win a Super Bowl with McDermott as the coach? Do you think you could win a Super Bowl with Josh Allen at QB?
