...... do you live under a rock? Pacheco broke his fibula last year, Mahomes tore Rice's ACL, Hollywood Brown was hurt all regular season last year. Worthy missed 4 games this year. Justin watson missed time. Every team has injuries my man. Please see above... Just because they made the SB doesn't mean they didn't have injuries.

Yes? Use motion so he can’t get jammed off the line. Do you think the Bills are the only team struggling with boundary receivers? Do Boutte, 32 year old Diggs, and Mack Hollins scream “Boundary threats?” No but McDaniels has schemes. Boutte has a slower 40 than Coleman and his avg depth of reception is 17.8 yards. But guess what? They throw the ball for 250-300 a game. Why? Scheme, motion, creativity. We aren’t even calling plays where this is possible. We don’t have routes from the intermediate to deep. Guess what else this hurts? Josh Allen’s ability to scramble and open up plays. When everything is within 10 yards of LOS, you’re taking away his best asset.

At this point, I have to put some blame Brady for the WR room. There is zero creativity. We run 1 scripted play to Shakir, there is no crossing routes, there are no motions, it's so bizarre. I don't think I've ever seen the ball snapped with Coleman off the line or in motion. Why don't we try using him in the slot? Why don't we use him in motion, snap the ball, and have him cross? Why don't we run screens to him? He's great with the ball in his hands. Samuel is a fast WR. There is nothing scheming him open. We scheme route concepts, not getting folks open. It's so hard to watch teams put their players in position to run after the catch and we just cant. Shakir being the only exception. Maybe they're "saving" some stuff for down the line. I don't know. I'd also like to see us use Cook more in the passing game. I just think our offensive passing game lacks a ton of creativity. 2 completions more than 20 yards down field this year is embarrassing.

AJ has been the least of our issues and I am no fan of his. I hated the draft pick and extension.

I truly don't understand why we leave Coleman just sitting out wide and allow him to get pressed. He is a monster and a great athlete. I can not remember (if it's ever happened) the last time we snapped the ball while he was in motion. Why not use him in the slot? Why not pick him open? We literally just sit and run slants and go's to him. We have to be creative because he is fantastic with the ball in his hands after catch.

We're on week 8, the title says week 9 and in the header of the post it says Week 7. But the dates and times are for next Thu- Mo.

This is really confusing........

It's really not though, Reich was fired during Bryce's rookie year, Eberflus was fired during Caleb's rookie year, Meyer with Lawrence, Fischer with Goff, and Hue with Baker and now this. It's becoming more common with expected results out of the gate with high QB picks.

Because people need something to b***h about and be unhappy about with our offense

If Jordan Poyer is a starter, we are F****D

You don't think you have to pay people on the practice squad? Let's not let thinking get in the way of words. So you want to take up a practice squad spot, for a guy that you'll use for 1 game a year(maybe) and 3 plays in that game(maybe). But then also take up an active roster spot for someone that game day for the same reason? Let's not let thinking get in the way of words.

So take up a roster spot for 1 team that does 1 play 5 times a game? Or just pay a guy to be inactive all year minus 1 game? That sounds brilliant.

No, that's you based on your feeling. You didn't respond to ANY of the stats I put in there. I'll try again. Kincaid has an avg catch of 14.4, Coleman and Shakir are around 10.5. Samuel, albeit small sample is close to 11. We also have the second leading rusher in the NFL. We are also 3rd in yards, 3rd in points, and 4-1.

Really weird to wish harm on to someone. Like.. actually a bizarre thing to wish for a pro athlete's career to be ended by injury for absolutely no reason.

It has, it's not the players fault that the Bills decide to run trick plays, screens, and etc. Brady's play call the other day left something to be desired. The Bills have 4 drops this year and are 3rd in yards, 4-1 and 3rd in points........ what else do you want?

You love to hate the WR's and specifically Keon. You overrate and said he's immature etc based on McDermott's benching FOR ONE SERIES. Do you think if he was a problem in the locker room that he would only sit out one series? Do you know how fast Samuel is? Dalton Kincaid's avg is 14.4, Keon Coleman is 11. Shakir avg is 11 as well.. Josh is 9th in the league in yards per completion. Are you sure we don't have a downfield passing attack? PS we also have the number 2 RB in terms of yards in the NFL... maybe you need to fking relax and stop being so negative.. holy cow.

Simple answer: You force him to where you know he wants to go and be there waiting for him. He would never flush to his left. You bait him into doing what he wants. It's the coaching staffs fault for having Jackson on the field. He looks lost, unathletic, and ill prepared.

LOL OMG people voted for McCarthy? He had 1 SB win in 13 years with Rodgers... was / is (even with Cowboys) the WORST in game coach I've ever seen. He was good simply because of Rodgers. He is abysmal. He is literally the offensive version of McDermott

It's on you if you let 1 division loss by 3 playing the worst game we've played since Dorsey was here, affect you. I'm not sure if you're aware of this but no team since 1972 has gone undefeated. You are insane if you expected that.

Dude, we lost 1 game and played the worst first half I've seen us play in 2 years. It was a division game. We do this every year. Josh has lost to Zach fking Wilson. Relax, holy cow.

Got you, I updated and edited my original post. But yeah you're saying his "wear and tear" is significantly less over his career than a Barkley / Taylor, etc. I'd agree. My only concern with paying cook the whole time was now we're going to lose an OL this offseason (I believe McGovern and Edwards are up for contracts) and then... does that affect his production moving forward? This year was never a concern because we returned all 5 OL.

No, not really. He's at 87 and Taylor, Irving, Jacobs, Barkley are at 90. He's top 7 in touches and only 3 away from being third. Odds are after this game he's number 2 in touches because number 2 right now is Kyren at 98 and he played last night.

So because you don't like the guy you "opening your own eyes" and coming up with out of the blue reasoning (which isn't true) why metrics are wrong? Did you know that Coleman is actually targeted SIGNIFICANTLY more in man than zone (like 14% higher). Furthermore, can you point to more than 2 plays he's made in the NFL where he "just jumps over" guys? I think you need to "open your own eyes" a little bit more and not let your feelings for a draft pick affect your view on the player. Is he the best? Nope... but is he improving? Yes.. is he "just a big guy that jumps over them?" also no. If so, I have not seen it. Maybe I need to "open my own eyes" and REALLLLLLY look for him "just jumping over guys."

No he won't. They finished 14-3 last year too. 22 was statistically his best year. He had only 6 INTs 3700+ passing yards 700+ rushing yards and 37 TDs... He was the reason his team was winning.. He is not the reason his team is winning anymore and that's reflected in his lack of MVP voting last year. Again, 12 QBs in the NFL win a SB with that team last year. You can't use a "for instance" when the EXACT SAME thing happened last year and he was no where near MVP convo's. QB's on the winningest team who win BECAUSE of the QB are in the convo.

You literally gave some things of how the MVP is evaluated..... and again, Josh has the best avg of all of those things. Yes.. his team wins because of him, Hurts' does not. Clearly not because Hurts is never in these conversations. His team didn't win BECAUSE of him. Purdy threw for 4300 yards and 31 TD's 2 years ago. Hurts never threw for 4,000 and more than 23 TDs
