CB Separation analysis - Sauce is ridiculous
LABILLBACKER replied to Big Blitz's topic in The Stadium Wall
We've had "bend don't break" defenses since the beginning of time. They don't even remotely work in the playoffs against the elite teams. Coaches from Walt Corey to Sean McDermott just don't get it. -
It's one thing not being a good game tactician or strategist. It's another not having a clue what to do with 13 seconds left. A huge ST blunder and 2 horrendous defensive calls. I think that "yet" is coming sooner than people think.

Apparently 7 people have drowned in the last 10 days in that area? Very sad news.

The Allen-Diggs Relationship in Decline?
LABILLBACKER replied to hondo in seattle's topic in The Stadium Wall
If Diggs wants to be helpful, try riding the players who are underperforming. Josh is not the problem and no one wants to win it all more than him. I think the Cincy loss simply exploded bent up emotions from Stefon after dealing with 3 straight years of brutal playoff exits. This has nothing to do with girlfriends, salary or not enough touches. If it is about playing somewhere else, Diggs better convince Jerry Jones to give us a ton in a trade. Beane's not getting fleeced. -
I agree. When guys like Saffold, Quessenberry and Brown get beat immediately, your qb is going to instantly go into happy feet mode. I think this behavior over the last 5 years is a huge result of our poorly rated OL since 2018. It also effects how little we run the ball. Hopefully this is the season guys like McGovern and Torrence can turn things around? Maybe Shell beats out Spencer?
-
Sean McDermott has had over 5 years to build a great OL. But because he's more interested in defensive objectives, Josh's play has been turned into hero ball. With a better OL the fumbles come down. With a better OL the finding open wr faster improves. And finally with a better OL, you're not constantly running for your life which would afford you more time to have "poise" in the pocket. We / I saw the true Josh Allen in those 2 playoff games of 2021. Once Dabs left everything reset for the worse.

I think we all have a pretty good idea of who McDermott is as far as historical HC's. It will be up to Josh to determine what legacy Sean has.
-
So in other words there's a chance....
-
No Josh has not peaked yet and there is room for improvement. The turnovers must come down. Josh MUST realize the advantages of checkdowns in certain situations. The OL absolutely MUST play better and keep him in that pocket. This will reduce the hero ball and increase good decisions. And finally it will be up to Dorsey to put Josh in good situations.

Bills named team with most “expectations” on them in 2023
LABILLBACKER replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
Last year every prognosticator predicted the Bills as Champs. The year before we blew an even better opportunity with 13 sec. I've heard many predict the Bills pull back some this season. And frankly that's fine with me. Clean up the Diggs drama and avoid catastrophic events and this team may very well stay under the radar and win it's first championship. -
Voltz, is this some strange form of subliminal sabotage?

McDermott & Beane Extended Through 2027
LABILLBACKER replied to BritBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
That's kinda how sports works. If fans were just content to win 51% of their games every year, life would be pretty boring. It always has and always will be about the "Chip". But alas we live in a world now where it's all about participation trophies and "just entertain me". -
McDermott & Beane Extended Through 2027
LABILLBACKER replied to BritBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
If you do your homework and look back at the history of all sports you will find hundreds of coaches who have won during the regular season. But always come up short winning a championship. Every one eventually gets fired. I guess it boils down to how much patience you have as a fan or team owner? Sean has come up short in 4 playoffs. What's the number till 80% of the fanbase demands a change? 5, 6 years....7 years...?.....and if some of you think I'm waiting 21 years for an Andy Reid epiphany from Sean, your dreaming. I'll be long dead. -
McDermott & Beane Extended Through 2027
LABILLBACKER replied to BritBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
Like I've said a million times. Because McD got us out of the drought, all most fans expect from him is winning the "regular season" title and entertainment. The playoffs or any aspirations for a championship are completely unnecessary. -
Augie, is that you?

Our WR scouts need to figure it out.

McDermott & Beane Extended Through 2027
LABILLBACKER replied to BritBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yes, I absolutely think he is a detriment. Josh single-handedly will guarantee us 10-12 wins every year. Not McDermott and his mediocre game day decisions. But come playoff time with high leverage teams and opposing HC's, Clappy melts. Games like blowing a 16-0 lead in Houston or 13 seconds only validates that argument. I'm telling ya he'll always guarantee you that "stability" and I think Terry is in love with that concept. But climbing the top of Mt. Lombardi is not something Sean will be capable of. -
McDermott & Beane Extended Through 2027
LABILLBACKER replied to BritBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
Reid only won because of Mahomes. Belichick is a .500 coach without Tom. At least Marv got us to 4 SB's with a QB substantially "less talented" than Josh. What's Sean's excuse, because there always is one. -
McDermott & Beane Extended Through 2027
LABILLBACKER replied to BritBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
🤯 Oh well, I like the idea of keeping Beane but McD just doesn't have the chops to win us a close playoff game. Enjoy McShottenheimer if that's your thing?
