Bills will not make it to the playoffs in 2023?
SoCal Deek replied to Cygnus99's topic in The Stadium Wall
Wild card, one and done. -
A day later, I'm still in the camp of cleaning house.
SoCal Deek replied to Pine Barrens Mafia's topic in The Stadium Wall
I’d add a slight different take. This defense is based on analytics. The theory is that the other team’s QB is going to screw up before they can get it in the end zone. It works during the regular season when the level of QB play is very hit and miss, but it’s not going to work against top tier playoff teams. -
Saffold said guys were "exhausted" this week and "out of gas"
SoCal Deek replied to Einstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
Very well said. I’m guessing Coach McD is okay with the latter take away. -

Ugh! If you read my comment, I’m specifically referring to a style of LEADERSHIP. It’s called an analogy. -

SoCal Deek replied to Einstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
I didn’t say they were. I said their leadership let them take their eye off the goal, and we all saw the results. It is what it is. -

This is going to sound really harsh but you do the same thing on a battlefield. You tell the remaining soldiers to keep moving, and do NOT look back at your fallen comrades. You move on together and take the next hill. Way, way, way too much wallowing went on…if you want to win a Super Bowl. They made their choice. -

SoCal Deek replied to Einstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
I couldn’t agree more and it’s on the head coach to get everyone through it. At that, he failed miserably. He alone chose where this team’s focus would be, and it definitely wasn’t on football. The result was so obvious yesterday. -
Unfortunately you’re correct.

Where’s the option for HC and DC?

Bills players were done with this year
SoCal Deek replied to Billzgobowlin's topic in The Stadium Wall
I’ll say it again. From the very start, the Bills players and coaches all looked exhausted yesterday. And while the game was still well within reach deep into the second half, nobody thought there was a chance of a comeback. -
2023 Offseason Primer: State of the Franchise
SoCal Deek replied to MAJBobby's topic in The Stadium Wall
Excellent write up. Unfortunately I cannot see McD changing anything of real consequence. My experience is that most adults simply don’t, no matter what the circumstances tell or show them. In short….we are now, stuck. -

SoCal Deek replied to Pine Barrens Mafia's topic in The Stadium Wall
So you’re saying I should look for you in London next October? I’ll be there! I’m going to keep doing what I’ve been doing for sixty plus years, but with an ever decreasing set of expectations. (I absolutely saw that coming yesterday.) -
I think you’re misreading the point of this thread. Read my post above. There was something clearly odd about how the Bills played on that turf yesterday.

McBeane's constant use of premium draft picks on role players
SoCal Deek replied to Process's topic in The Stadium Wall
Put another way…if we’re going to rotate all these players in, we’re going to need to ask the league for fourteen rounds in next year’s draft. 😉 -
Where was the leadership - Von Miller?
SoCal Deek replied to Returntoglory's topic in The Stadium Wall
It’s utterly obvious but people don’t want to face it. We have entire threads about Diggs showing emotional frustration on the sideline yesterday. Is ANYONE talking about ANYBODY on the defensive side of the ball trying to rally the troops during that same game? Nope! Frazier is standing there with his typical blank stare and nobody on the starting eleven looks to be taking charge…at all! -

SoCal Deek replied to Billzgobowlin's topic in The Stadium Wall
This isn’t going to be a popular take but he was both the right and wrong coach during and after the Hamlin incident. He was perfect for a day or so, and then he needed to get himself and his team back to football. They were playing on fumes from that point on. -
Where was the leadership - Von Miller?
SoCal Deek replied to Returntoglory's topic in The Stadium Wall
You’re clearly right. Edmunds one heck of a leader. -
I didn’t read through all of the comments but here’s what I noticed as it relates to the weather yesterday: for some reason, either coaching or player on-field experience, the Bills seemed utterly unsure of their footing. Nobody was making cuts. On offense, our ball carriers, including Josh refused to stick their foot in the ground and go north south and our linemen were getting pushed straight back like tackling sleds. On defense our linemen were simply Bull rushing, seemingly afraid to attempt to bend around their offensive tackles. Again…I’m not sure why.

SoCal Deek replied to Returntoglory's topic in The Stadium Wall
That’s it? He did it last week? Maybe you disagree but 100% I’m ready to move on from this guy. -
Where was the leadership - Von Miller?
SoCal Deek replied to Returntoglory's topic in The Stadium Wall
Von Miller? He is not the leader on defense. Edmunds is supposed to be. He simply isn’t. Has anyone ever seen him get mad? Or huddle up his guys? Or take charge in ANY way? Nope! -

SoCal Deek replied to Billzgobowlin's topic in The Stadium Wall
Then you’d agree McD has to go. He was most DEFINITELY done. -

SoCal Deek replied to Pine Barrens Mafia's topic in The Stadium Wall
Reading through all of the comments this morning it’s rare to see such consensus around a topic….on anything these days. We all know it. We can all see it. The Bills are simply not physical enough to beat the better teams week after week in a playoff run. And that’s on BOTH sides of the ball. The question is will management do anything about it? I, for one, doubt it.
