LABILLBACKER

You guys are all assuming McD has the intelligence to activate such a strategy. That's a big ask?

Our zone is incredibly vulnerable. Factor in zero pass rush from our litany of Jags and Nacua was guaranteed to sit down in our zone and be wide open. Stafford wasn't pressured at all.

Exactly...nobody cares anymore about the 1 seed. The real elephant in the room is fans like myself terrified seeing stupid coaching about to enter another playoffs that Josh got us to.

I've counted at least 20x McDermott has made one of these moronic decisions as a Bills HC. How many more must be tolerated for the sake of culture. The only culture & process I see is stupidity from our coaches, starting at the top.

If you told me we were going to score 42 pts and Josh has 6 tds I'd probably say we win 99% of the time. Today I witnessed how incredibly vulnerable our defense is.

Realistically the 1 seed was lost tonight. Get out of Detroit with minimal injury issues and take care of business with NE/ NYJ. 13-4

Every db on the planet wraps a little around the waist. Some get called, some don't. It was definitely one of 3 calls/no calls on that last Rams drive that killed us. No false start and no hold on Kupp?

So I guess our coaches had no desire to go after the 1 seed. They strategized to tap out.

>Predictable soft zone >St. Brown will have a field day >Gibbs/ Montgomery run wild >Goff not touched

I see another high scoring game where Josh balls out as usual and our defense blows chunks as usual. I have no faith anymore in our defense and I don't have to wait for the playoffs to say that. Milano may never be the all-pro he once was and we have no pass rushers on this roster. Lions 45 Bills 42

Only 3 pressures and 3 qb hits. Zero sacks...and Nacua was so open in that zone, the few pressures didn't even matter.

McD is not going to get any "good fortune" defensively with the way he runs his zone. Nacua absolutely eviscerated Sean's zone tonight. He was open all night. Throw in our usual mediocre pass rush and game over. Groot, AJE, Von and Ed combined for a whopping ZERO sacks against an almost 37 yr old qb. Embarrassing.....

1. Johnson 2 Belichick ....Sean's time with Buffalo is over in my eyes. They'll take a huge step backwards.

How can you forget? There's like 20 documented blunders and horrible calls / time-outs etc over these last few years. His career of game management error is littered over several games. 13s was his magnum opus. Yes the timeout was stupid but the tush push call on 1st & goal by Brady was even worse. You tell me you can't call 4 straight throw/ run options for Josh that won't make you burn any of your 3 timeouts?

I'm done with him. He's literally had 20 chances to learn from his mistakes over these last 8 years. Now after watching today I can clearly see why Andy fired him. His defense against quality teams usually gets shredded. Today was no different. He's failed Josh in so many ways. Just give me Ben Johnson and end this nonsense. We win because of Josh, not Sean.

The stupidity of this collective coaching staff is epic. We've watched this same movie over and over.

Tom Brady was right. 2 straight tush pushes and burning a stupid TO was terrible. After the Cooper DPI, Joe should've called 4 straight option throws for Josh from the 1. Throw it or let Josh roll out and run it in.

Just watched the replay of the last Rams drive. Absolutely unbelievable no call on the false start. But the most egregious miss was the illegal pick and hold on Kupp that easily frees up Nacua. There isn't a more blatant blown call than this one.

McD always has and always will be a micro manager. This is HIS defensive scheme and formation. And it has been since 2017. DC's come and go and pretend to be in charge but Sean runs the show. The yearly failings of his defense are forever embedded in him. Yeah, because he's obsessed with drafting undersized Dlineman. If you think today is the last time our D gets embarrassed, you're delusional.

Without 17, we're a 4 win team. He should already have at least 1 mvp if it wasn't for yearly garbage defenses.

Maybe Andy sold all his degenerate kids to the devil for this kind of luck.

I'm sick and tired of McD's yearly defense crapping the bed. Josh has NEVER had an elite pass rusher as a Bill. If we exit the division round again, I'm hiring Ben Johnson immediately. Sean's game management is atrocious.

Has Brady ever heard of this thing called a naked bootleg. Or dive into the line throw to your TE?

I just hope this doesn't turn into a Tre/ Von scenario.

McDermott has butchered time outs his entire career.
