The Bills haven't been able to field a capable offense in almost two decades.
Yes, they have been the #1 rushing team a couple of times, but only because the passing game has always been pathetic.
It's always been a mix of bad o-line play, receivers, QB, and coaching.
I think they have got their QB in Allen, so at this point, I would address the needs as follow:
1. Guards-Center-Right Tackle
2. Receiver
You cant fire Daboll just yet because you don't want to mess with Allen's development. I don't think coaching turnover works well for any young QBs benefit. If anything, it's probably detrimental.
This week's offense though was beyond pathetic. The only 2 players making plays were Ivory and Shady. Allen tried his hardest too, but was obviously struggling.
I would like to see Ivory and Shady both on the field more often. I would also like to see Croom getting more looks.
They've got to get back to running the football, over and over, and over again. Establish some sort of a play action. I don't want Allen to get killed.
At any rate, the play calling was unimaginative this week. Didn't we see all sort of pre-snap motion in preseason? Especially in week 1 against the panthers? I don't recall seeing any of that yesterday.
And if you're gonna call a run play on 3rd and 2, like we did yesterday in the first series, then you better be 99.99% confident you can convert. They did not to our dismay. Shoulda done something more creative.
