Since when can the booth reverse calls?
Billsfan1972 replied to Mikie2times's topic in The Stadium Wall
But they turned around a close call so quick. That should have been a long review. Sunday fourth down that was obviously way short in the Tenn vs. Pitt game took 5 minutes. The ball movement in the Buffalo game was done almost immediately and made little sense. -
How are we supposed to feel about this win??
Billsfan1972 replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall
The best thing to come out of this week, is that the Bills too know they did not play well (maybe the defense thought so). Coming off the Miami, NYJ & NO games, I think they were pretty high on themselves (jmho). The Pats are not that good..... Stop it. The problem is that the Bills have not played well of late. -
Most every Bills fan agrees 100%, but there are still a lot of Lamar fans in the press and he is one QB that when you take shots at him they can be misconstrued or one's motives questioned.

Billsfan1972 replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall
A lot here love to move the goalposts to fit their narrative. I saw a lot of 14-3 (or 13-4) predictions and certainly worst case scenario was another AFC Championship game. Still think the SB is in play, but to say I'm happy how this season has played out, would be a lie. The Offense I've stated numerous times is off (and then comes the blowback). Diggs yep a 1,000 yards, but no where near the player he was last year. Even Josh is making errors. The defense is is bending and breaking at times and way too many long plays. But again I still billieve..... -

Billsfan1972 replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall
Good thing I waited a while before stating similar and starting a thread that would be maligned and denigrated. The offense as I've said many a times is off. Diggs 4 catches 35 yards, Beasley invisible..... OL pass protection shoddy at best. This was at home vs. Carolina and the Bills looked anything but crisp. But a win is a win and no one I expect thinks they had a dominant performance (vs. those crowing about the Miami & NYJ games earlier). Maybe a good thing????😜 -
Saturday Night Football: Colts vs Pats thread
Billsfan1972 replied to Big Blitz's topic in The Stadium Wall
If the Bills can't go 4-0 down the stretch, frankly they deserve whatever comes to them. -
I had us winning out prior to week 1!!!!! Embarrassing if we don't go 3-1 & yes I do expect 4-0.
-
No you're insane...... Just an opinion......😜
-
Both of them (4th quarter & OT) Diggs was interfered with. However both calls I wasn't happy with either. Again just an opinion.
-
No I am making an honest assessment (and yes my opinion). I don't know or can't attribute all the good things to him, like some do here. Maybe we are just so talented a team, that we cover up even more of his mistakes. What I have seen this year though is no growth from him (in 2020 I applauded him for allowing the offense to open up and yep 300 yard passing games). This year I've seen what appears to be McD being outcoached a # of weeks when playing teams that I think the Bills are better then. Do you agree or disagree?
-
Well just because you said so...... By all means lock the thread.....😡 Another McD truther..... Again I say don't fire him, but tired of people anointing him. For instance the Bills stunk out the joint Sunday's first half & some then state he took over the Defense & turned the game around. How about he take control from Daboll inside the 10 and then we score every time too???!!!!😜
-
Actually I'd question that. On third & 2 you have minimum two plays to get the first down/td. They took a 50/50 shot on a stupid fade, not utilizing 4-5 other weapons. But yes you're right Daboll blew the 3rd down call...... I would however blame that on McD, because this has been an issue all year & nothing has changed & not one innovative play called when needed. Anyone else see for instance OJ's easy TD Monday night? Do that and then clock the ball (if didn't score) and still have 2 shots at the endzone. There were so many options.
-
The defense was shredded the entire first half and yep played better, but did allow yards and it is Brady and eventually you expect it to even out. Any turnovers, sacks (one I think) and huge losses? No.... They played much better, but anyone who has more trust in this defense vs. Josh Allen getting 2 yards in 2 plays (or 7 yards for a TD), please explain (of course there is the anchor Daboll to account for).
-
The third down play stunk too (though we all know there should have been a penalty). Point is they have so many options with Allen and chose him making a touch pass and no other options even considered. There were 30 seconds left, plenty of time for the fg if needed. Yes I would have gone for it. Again time was not a factor. These are things you practice.
-
I was just again pointing out the general issues and those three calls are indicative of deeper issues. OT, the Bills have the ball and can't afford top give it to Brady. So what are the calls????? A run and two short passes. Just pathetic.....
-
I'm looking at your screen name and hope the post reflects it...... Daboll is okay. Again he has not done well this year and particulalrly bad inside the 10 yard line. If he was responsible for those 3 calls in OT, then again there are issues.
-
Exactly.... This year is skewed by beating up on bad opponents and inexperienced QB's. The pass rush is not good. Watch the pressure Allen was under vs. the Bucs and how little we've generated when needed.
-
And that is the point. He won't be fired (maybe he'll find a better job??), but that doesn't take away from his shortcomings, which have been on display all year.

Luv anytime people question McD as we have those ready to move on and then those who are members of what I call the "Cult of McD". I think he's a good coach. Has he got the most out of this team? Are his game time decisions good? Is his game plan good? Is he the beneficiary of great players or has he put them in position to succeed? As said he has grown on me, but I certainly am not convinced he is great. Would I can him? No. I want to see him grow and make smarter decisions and be more decisive. Will continue to reserve judgement.
