Same fears about the Fish and we did well. Granted we’ve lost a couple guys on the D but if McD can scheme up a way to slow down the Fish he can do so with the Bengals. And the offense looked a whole lot better last week.
Can he improve on it? You seriously don't think with study he can't improve? Come on. The guy is a great QB, we all know that. But should he not be expected to work on areas that might be weaker?
The rumor was Josh had a big hand in keeping Dorsey. Dorsey needs to be more imaginative. But maybe he isn’t the style coach that would benefit Josh. Daboll wasn’t afraid to get in Josh’s face; maybe Josh responds better to that style? Even Brady wanted to be coached hard.
The last couple weeks Purdy is looking more like the Mr. Irrelevant in his draft class. Defenses may be figuring him out.
He is tough to be sure. The Bills have had tough QBs in history. Kelly was certainly. And Kemp took a lot of shots that even as a kid I couldn’t believe he got up from. I worry about Josh taking a hit like the kid Richardson here in Indy took and be out for the year. That’s why I think the coaches are trying to limit his running.
You would have to look at film for both. Film I have seen with Josh from the last couple games is that there are guys open but he goes elsewhere. Not so much in the run of three games when we blew teams out. Don’t know about Mahomes but he has Kelce that teams can double or ever triple and he still gets open. I wish Josh had a safety valve like that.
He was not good in the first half Sunday. He was the Josh we expect the second half. It’s hard to win in the NFL when your QB is off his game for 50% of the time.
Orlovsky has pointed out teams know the Bills are very weak on reacting to the blitz, can’t get things blocked or get the ball out quickly. Teams will keep doing it till the Bills prove they can beat it.
