I hope not. Serbia had a horrible offense.

I'm very cynical at this point. But you're right. Beane is kind of screwed either way. We're mad about the roster, but it's mid season now. No one available today would make us happy.

Can he run mesh? Put him in!

Philips literally says he won't play anywhere else but Buffalo.

It really is an indictment on Beanes team building that he keeps having to bring back old re-treads like Philips, Gabe, Poyer, and Lawson. Guys that can't cut it on other teams come back here and get meaningful snaps, or even become our starters.

This is what I've been saying as well. Long developing pass plays, and not bringing in extra blockers when the o line is getting their @sses handed to them. How does Pegula not get pissed about protecting his $300 million investment? McDermott is going to lose the locker room if he continues to choose loyalty to staff over loyalty to players. He's letting Josh get killed out there.

What's Mario Addison up to these days?

That's exactly what I was saying. When Babich was his position coach, he looked like a probowl caliber LBer. Babich was a great position coach. But position coach and coordinator are two completely different animals.

Man, Bernard really regressed with Babich moving from his position coach to DC. Shame. He was looking like a playmaking stud for a while.

I have no doubt that Brady is smart. You don't make it this far without knowing football. I'm sure he can break down film and analyze what the offense and defense are doing. He just doesn't seem to have the ability to think and react quickly. To adjust on the fly. What else does this organization need to see before they realize he's in over his head.

No. Maybe he was better than Dorsey and Brady. Maybe. But that doesn't mean he was good as OC.

Allen isn't perfect. He'll miss things from time to time. But it's "easy" to see a wide open Knox when you have the benefit of a camera 30ft in the air and you don't have 4 300 lb men running free at you. I couldn't see which DT stunted to that side, but he was literally between Josh and Knox when Josh looked that way. I doubt he could see him.

Teams are supposed to pay top dollar for sacks. Groot has been an elite run defender. But the current defensive unit as a whole is atrocious against the run. So he's not helping there. Long story short, we paid "Batman" level money for Robin.

If Dennison, Daboll, & Dorsey had gone on to have success, maybe you could say it's McDermott causing the offensive woes. McDermott isn't calling long developing mesh concepts when Josh is getting instant pass rush in his face. So Brady gets the most blame in my opinion. But McDermott does pick the OC. And he doesn't have a good track record so far. And there is a dearth of talent on this roster which largely falls on Beane and his mediocre drafting.

Need a pick 6 from Bishop.

Texans getting instant pressure. I know, let's have everyone run 3 second routes.

That referee must train with the Bills strength & conditioning team.

It's me. Whenever I expect a bad outcome, the Bills pay lights-out. Match-up wise, I expected bad losses against the Ravens, Chiefs, and Bucs. So from here on out, I expect the Bills to lose by 14 to every team on the schedule.

I never wish for injuries on any team. But Rapp being out has been the best thing for Bishop. Poyer, I think, should get some credit for Bishops growth. Which has been terrific to watch. This defense needs someone to step up. Mad Max looks like he could be heading in that direction as well. 5 INTs between the 2 of them.

He wanted them to switch to their 2nd favorite kneel-down play. 3d chess, my guy.

Many are overly fond of Daboll. He had a horrible track record as OC pre-Josh. Daniel Jones is having a career resurgence after leaving Daboll. Daboll had success here because he had prime Josh, prime Diggs, and prime Beasley.

I genuinely believe that's the only way he knows to scheme guys open.

The title of this thread, in itself, it's a sad commentary on the current state of the Bills. And that i agree with it makes it even worse.

6 points. If McD hasn't seen by now that Brady doesn't have it, they both need to be gone. And I'm not one to call for firings.

Brady's idea of "scheming someone open" is to throw a screen.
