Respectfully, I believe you to be conflating "difference maker" with "putting up stats".
Putting pressure on the QB is Chris Jones job. It is not Daquan Jones job. His job was what Star Lotulelie was supposed to do, and with few exceptions never did - soak up OL and free the 3T to generate pressure up the middle. And he was doing it. Settle told us we were gonna love him, but he isn't in the same league.
That's more than a "complementary piece" to my definition. Someone like that is actually foundational and fundamental to being able to get pressure in McD's defense.
Agree. I think Jones might be our defensive MVP. He makes Milano, Oliver, Edmunds, Groot, and Von play better.

Saffold was a bad signing from the start. Beane needs to stop building a line from the scrap heap.I'm hoping Doyle pushes Brown for the RT spot. But we need an influx of young cheap talent on the oline via the top 3 rounds of the draft. draft.

Funny...many said the same thing about Andy Reid for years.
Andy Reid is a head coach #1. I never said we should fire McD. Incidentally, Reid wasn't fired after a playoff loss, he was fired after 2 losing seasons (still a mistake in my opinion).
#2, Reid consistently got good production out of lesser talent at the skill positions. He has shown creativity, adaptation, and an ability to use his players talents. He's done so for 20 years.
You're going to compare him to Dorsey who seemed to regress as the season went on?
When the offense is struggling he just relies on Josh as a cheat code to get something going. I'd say we should be patient with him if he showed growth. But i didn't see anything to suggest he'll figure things out in his second year. I hope I'm wrong.

You mean getting 400+ yards of offense every game is bad?
I know you're watching the games, and I appreciate your commentary trying to be a voice of reason. I don't like turnover either.
But I saw abandoning the run, lack of creativity in route combinations, sending receivers to the same spot. These problems seemed to get worse late in the season. They were relying on super human efforts by Josh and Diggs every week. That's not sustainable.
Like i said, I don't like turnover in coaching, but you have to know when someone isn't working out. Consistency for the sake of consistency isn't smart either. There are 4 ex coordinators on staff so they don't have to go outside the org.

Ehh..did it? They scored 32+ points in 4 straight games
How you get there matters, no? Miami scored 31 on us last week. Does that mean their offense played well?
-
I'm not a, "this guy needs to be fired..." but Dorsey isn't the guy. A slow start with visible growth throughout the season would be one thing.
But the offense regressed down the stretch. That's not a good sign and doesn't give hope that he'll get better next year.
-
If both of our lines had Diggs' fire, we win this game.
I wish we had more like him.

This is unexcusable. Not even considering we have one of the best qbs to ever play football. Coaching needs to address the Offense heavy in the draft or they should be on the hot seat. They obviously can not evaluate the DL well. We should have the #1 DL in the league based off our draft capital and FA contracts spent. They are somehow garbage. Stop with it. Just stop with the Defensive draft and FA signings. It has absolutely failed to this point
Coach Washington has done nothing to develop the d line.

They run free with easy passes, we look like every pass is an imposible task.
It really sucks.

I can't really get mad about this stuff. But I do hope Josh is watching and hearing all these pundits say that he's too mistake prone to beat Burrow. That's got to crawl under his skin.

That AFC Championship loss to Cincy still burns m’azz! Biggest play of the game was a botched face mask call on Bruce Smith! 3rd Down play, Bruce makes an inside move and smashes Eisiason in the chest so hard it convolts his body! Bruce is very dark complexioned and Cincy’s jerseys and face masks were black. Bruce never touched his face mask! They get an automatic 1st down and score a TD to win 21-10. BASTARDS!😡
I was born and raised in Southern California. Zero ties to upside New York. That game, of which you speak so vividly, is the game that made me a Bills fan.

If Josh Allen takes what the defense gives him and the offense pays with rhythm... Bills 34 - 24.

We are not good on critical down and distance. Personally, I think it has a lot to do with no Micha Hyde
He's one of the best in the league at defending the deep ball. I'd love to have him back there against the Bengals. Also, why isn't elam starting again?

That was bothering me too.
I do think the depth the Phish secondary was setting up in ahd something to do with that.
They were still available with some minor tweaking though.
This is a great post.
I hated the fact that the turnover came on first down but at that point in the game they were having really good success finding openings in the secondary on 1st downs and I get what he was trying to do on that particular down. I wonder what Josh passed up to chuck that prayer instead; I'd bet that one of his first two options was available and he couldn't help himself
If i remember correctly, both Singletary and Morris were open in space. Same with the strip sack for 6. Two guys open on short routes.
I love Josh and his killer instinct. But getting into a rhythm with short/ intermediate stuff increases the chances of hitting the deep ball.

No. The BILLS Zare giving them the game. Big difference
I think you read my comment incorrectly. I said the Bills' mistakes let lesser teams hang around. That's exactly what's happening right now.

Anyone that has been paying attention knew this outcome was a real possibility. So many delusional fans think this is the same offense at the end of last season and the Dolphins were just gonna roll over.
Agree. I hated all of the cockiness before this game. The dolphins have playmakers and we've let lesser teams hang around all season with our mistakes.

Cook.
I don't see big changes for our offense this week, but it seems like they've been getting him ready, over the past few weeks, for a breakout run in the playoffs. Dolphins are aggressive with the blitzing. That leaves them vulnerable to the RB screens and draws plays.

Hit on another Rousseau and I’ll never criticize them going after pass rushers early.
They better be right though.
Fanbase justifiably has zero patience for another rotational DE like Epenesa and Basham early while we ask Allen to do everything.
We need help on offense, but I can't really argue with you. DE is a premium position and you can never have enough good pass rushers. But like you said, you have to hit on them. Elite passrushers are rarely found at the end of round 1. Seems like you either pick one top 10, or get lucky with a late round gem.

They need to build around Allen. They need to draft all offense - 3 OL, WR, RB, TE. Period.
Use free agency to add a few bargain deals on defense. And franchise tag Edmunds.
What’ll actually move the needle for this team is investing around the best player.
Agreed. We need to help Allen. He needs protection and playmakers. I hate seeing these teams with young speedy playmakers. I love Diggs. He's one of the best route runners in the NFL. But he's not a game breaking YAC guy. We need some of that.

I agree that the Bills sometimes play down to the competition in the regular season, where a couple losses don't mean much (in terms of elimination), but the playoffs are a completely different animal. No way imo do the Bills play down to the comp starting now.
As I stated, I do believe that the Bills will win. But I'm with you here and I really hope you're right.

So what is the first coach or domino to fall?
in The Stadium Wall

Frazier's contact does not get renewed. Eric Washington fired. John Butler elevated to DC (my hope). I think Dorsey stays (I don't hope).
