It has now been explained dozens of times. How much attention do you need?

Josh said it was hard to throw the ball in the middle because of the wind

People act like children around here sometimes, and if you’re on the Bills Mafia Facebook page it’s even worse. Here’s the reality: 1. Our team is set up to throw the ball on offense and stop the pass on defense. We will defeat teams that have liabilities in pass defense. We will struggle against teams that are set up to run the ball. 2. We are not tough enough up front on either side of the ball. The primary issue on the O line is that Dawkins is still affected by Covid, Williams regressed after last year, and Feliciano has been hurt and Brown was an idiot. On D Star was an idiot, Zimmer went down, and Harry has a PCL. We won’t be able to fix some of these till after the season, but if you recall Beane brought tons of O line guys into camp. They need to fix the O line by drafting. 3. Coaching has been suspect. Could we have schemed better in some games? Yeah. Daboll and Frazier have to figure out answers to the run game but with the personnel up front solutions may be limited. It would not surprise me in the slightest if we go undefeated the rest of the way nor would it surprise me if we go 3-2. It’s a weird year in the league.

I do think one valid critique of Allen is that he has to learn to get rid of the ball and avoid sacks. Other than that he’s great

Epenesa, Rousseau, and Basham are going to be really good players for us. Oliver has really come on this year. Now Beane needs to turn his attention to the interior line.

I would bring Williams up and give him a shot at RB. He runs hard and hits the hole quicker than Singletary or Moss. Other than that, we simply do not have an offense that is set up to run. You can’t fix everything in one offseason but this coming one they need to get some hogs for the interior of the O line and a RB like the Stephenson kid the Pats have.

I think Adams and Granato are going to be the right guys. But as for McD the biggest thing he needs to do is decide if Daboll is the right guy going forward.

This

You look at the season and the Colts game is the only game we were not in with a chance to win at the end. McD got out coached last night by the GOAT; he’s certainly not alone in that. He made a questionable call on the challenge, but other than that the one thing I’d criticize is he should have made the adjustment to have Milano run blitz earlier. He does need to look at Daboll and decide if he’s the right guy going forward. And Beane needs to upgrade the interior of the line on both sides of the ball. The losses we’ve had boil down to other teams being able to dominate the LOS, and it’s hard to coach guys to be stronger than the guy across from them. A lot of crying today, but in the end we lost this game because the D over pursued on one play and got burned for a 60 yard run.

Stupid Josh rears his head again. You cannot take that sack.

Hate to say it, not normally pessimistic, but that might just be the game.

I stand corrected about Star, thankfully.

I didn’t see him on the list a couple pages back.

Missing Star is going to hurt

Just go out and kick their ass. Time to end the Belichick reign for good.

Ok boys, let’s matriculate the ball down the field!

Watch the games. When you see our O line guys get pushed straight back by the other guys, and when you see the opposite with our D line, that’s soft. Since it’s invention football is about physicality and strength. It is about imposing your will on the opposing team. There are teams that have physically dominated us this year because we were too soft.

Being able to beat the guy across from you. And we don’t get that done as much as we should.

If it’s not windy they should make him beat us deep. Either way. They run it and have him throw short routes. Be like a Belichick and take away what they do well, and force them to do something different.

More attention seeking. Pathetic.

Put your big boy pants on, come out strong, and kick their collective ass. You want the division you win this game.

and the attention ***** strikes again with yet another meaningless thread

Teams could have traded up to get Allen. Wasted opportunity. Teams could have traded for Diggs and didn’t. Wasted opportunity. Every team in the league had multiple shots at drafting Brady and didn’t. Wasted opportunity. I could keep this going for probably a month straight but do you get the point?

It’s a big loss but devastating? We’ll see.

Well aren’t you the smart one.
