I find Daboll super unlikable. I don't hate the dude. Just as a HC in the league the more I have to hear him and the kornei heat him the more I cringe kind of thing.
My quick $0.02 is that he's likely pretty smart but a pretty bad leader/people person and the more that becomes more of his job the more gratingbhe becomes.
Also, don't fork with peoples brains.
People blamed McDermott for their strained relationship back in the day. I think it is pretty clear now that Daboll is the more difficult to get along with of the two.

Refs need to start calling this crap. I know it's almost impossible to see in real time but they can't be afraid to throw the flag. Then just make a rule change that pushing the ball carrier forward is a 45 yard penalty at next year's owner meetings.
Yeah, I'm fine with the play as long as refs are serious about calling Offside, lining up in the neutral zone, and false starts. Both offenses running the play and defenses defending the play are breaking the rules consistently. If the refs can't rein in the rule breaking, they'll have to ban the play altogether.

It is pretty centered around Kincaid already. Kincaid is 2nd in the league in yards and 3rd in TDs among TE's. Kincaid, Shakir, and Coleman all have about the same number of targets and receptions, so Kincaid is at least one of 3 of the receiving engines that make the offense go.
16 hours ago, finn said:Fair point. I'm not saying McDermott is a bad coach, just that the excellent win percentage people point to as evidence of his prowess is dubious given the quarterback he's been bestowed. It's like saying "Look at all the championships Scottie Pippen won! He's obviously one of the best players of all time."
What coaches have a great win percentage without a good QB?

I got chastised here for saying that Allen played a poor game, but as the week goes on, more and more people seem to be agreeing.
He wasn't awful. He still made plays. But he had four or five mistakes that were really costly.

To be fair, Bernard, Johnson, Rapp and Benford haven't been exactly stellar either!
Bernard has had good games and he makes splash plays.

Stop with the "soft zone" complaints. You're just showing that you aren't actually watching what the defense is doing.

They looked brutal for long stretches during most of their wins, by the way.
The offense turned the ball over three times. The best QB in the NFL directly contributed to throwing this game away. Yes, the defense wasn't good in the 2nd half, but Allen shares in the blame and is at least an equal party to it.

Id be good with Shakir/Kincaid getting 80%
But 61% & 49% is just Fing stupid
Shakir is in the slot. Slot players don't play as much.
The fact is, we don't have a receiver worthy of being out there 80% of the time.

Flacco should be retired and enjoying his money. He must be the type that doesn't know what to do with himself outside of football.

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the games he’s getting knocked around and taking hard hits are some of his worst games.
I agree there’s no evidence of a concussion specifically here. I did say during the game “he’s going to need an ice bath after this one.”
Because he starts pressing more and tries to scramble more. He bails from clean pockets, etc.
14 minutes ago, Marcus Aurelius said:Thank you for your analysis. What's bugging me is how the Pats stopped the Bills running game. That was a shocker. What did you see here?
Well for one thing, the Bills didn't run it as much, and for another thing, they had Cook on the sideline far more. It seemed they wanted to give Cook a lesser workload.

Josh was likely concussed. He got his head slapped off the turf early in the 3rd quarter.
Josh is also a pro's pro, so he'll never get pulled unless the lights go out for >10 seconds.
Every time Allen plays poorly, people claim this. Every single time. And it is just such an empty claim. There was nothing to indicate Allen was concussed.

As others have pointed the Bills have 11 pass breakups. It’s also worth noting that the Bills defense has faced the second fewest pass attempts per game in the league. Hard to get pass breakups when the other teams not throwing it.
And two interceptions.

If they let the QBs prepare the balls how they want, I don't see why they wouldn't let the kickers do the same thing.

That both the Chiefs and Ravens might miss the playoffs really didn't seem possible even two weeks ago.
The Ravens defense hasn't been nearly as good as everyone thought it would be before the season started, and the injuries have just about sunk them, especially to Lamar and Madubuike ... Lamar may not play again this week.
Meanwhile, what the hell is up with the Chiefs???? They got up 14-0 early on, and then seemed to think they'd already won. Then the Chiefs had a INT in the end zone negated by a PI. They had a long KO return following the 99-yard pick six negated by a penalty. Butker kicks out of bounds after the Chiefs go-ahead TD to give Jax the ball at the 40. Then to put a cherry on top, Chris Jones just stands around watching Lawrence scramble into the EZ after falling twice!
The Bills aren't the only team to play a clunker in a prime time night this week. Maybe it was the full Harvest Moon.
The Chiefs looked like this last year, but had a bunch of inexplicable wins. This year, those wins are turning into losses. They just don't have the firepower anymore. Kelce is old, and he was the one big difference maker on offense. Mahomes seems to feel like all the pressure is on him, and it is. We'll see what Rice looks like when he comes back. Maybe he is what they need. But their defense hasn't been that great either.

It’s looking like 11-6 might be the cutoff this year for a wild card. 10-7 might get in, but you will likely be subject to tie breakers. 9-8 likely won’t get in.
Why do you think that? I think it will be like most years where 10 wins gives you a good shot to get in, especially with a lot of the top teams losing games already.

I think the initial idea was to let Jacksonville score but when Lawrence tripped and fell the plan changed
Or they could have, you know, stopped them and won the game. If the plan was to let them score, that was a terrible plan.

I'll address your accusation that some of us fans view Allen through rose colored glasses. But first other then your and others strange dislike of Allen there is no objective criteria that would support Allen having a poor game yesterday. He was good but not great. As others have said we saw Allen's B game against the Pats.
Now onto your point. I have been a passionate Bills fan for over 60 years. And it's been my privilege to have been able to root for only 2 HOF QB's in all that time - Jim Kelly & Josh Allen. Allen is the reason the Bills have been legit SB contenders over the last 6 seasons. He is the reason Buffalo escaped 20 years of miserable football purgatory. On top of all that Allen is fun to watch and his effort has never flagged.
For these reasons alone I deeply appreciate what Allen has meant to the Bills franchise & fan base. If ever a Bills player deserved the benefit of doubt Allen is that player.
So I will never apologize for defending the greatest QB in Bills history from nit picking & snide remarks. There have been a couple of bad games by Allen over the years but last night was not one of them and it's not viewing his performance through rose colored glasses to say that.
I disagree with you. I think many fans are quick to blame everyone else but Allen, even when he clearly plays poorly.
I love Josh Allen and have always been a supporter and will continue to be a supporter. I am not a negative poster. I am often defending Allen, McDermott, and others. But I call like I see it, and that means assigning blame where I see it. If Allen doesn't turn it over twice, takes open receivers, and doesn't scramble out of clean pockets, the Bills win handily. He wasn't the only problem, not by far. There were tons of other culprits as well. But he was one of them.

Why isnt Brady calling passing plays to the RBs? We should throw to our RBs often. Cook, Ty, and Ray all have good hands, and all 3 excelled last year. Ty made an amazing catch in playoffs to save our season! Enough with the trick plays Brady, Get the ball to the RBs in space!
Allen has also been turning down those opportunities.
-
1) Bench Taron Johnson.
2) Get the penalties under control.
3) Somehow get the missed tackles under control. But I don't see how.
4) Use the running backs in the passing game. The Bills were the best team in the league last year at that. Now they never do it. Not one target to a running back against the Pats.
5) Play Shaq Thompson more. He is their best linebacker.
18 minutes ago, Brianmoorman4jesus said:I’d love to see what a combination of Thompson and Dorian Williams looks like. I might be on an island but I love Dorian Williams. And he’s exactly what this defense is lacking. A fast physical tone setter that makes offenses uncomfortable. Im tired of keep it infront of you ***** *****. Go hit someone
Williams has been terrible this year. He gets fooled on every play, has no feel for coverage, and makes way too many mistakes.

I don’t think you watch enough NFL if you think Josh’s performance was “poor.”
Poor by his standards, sure. But not poor.
that kinda speaks to the larger part that we can’t beat the Pats without our QB playing like the best QB in football, which bodes ill.
Yeah. I guess that's a good point. I do watch a lot of football and most QBs look pretty poor to me most of the time now. Definately poor by Josh Allen standards, but the QB play in the NFL is not that great right now, honestly.

How do you know that the fumble was on Allen? The stats assign it to him but unless your name is Brady you have no idea who fumbled that ball.
That any one watching last nights game would claim that Allen played poorly is astonishing to me. It would be no different then claiming Allen played great. He played a good game - nothing more, nothing less. The loss was not because of bad QB play.
He played a poor game. I don't see how anyone watching could believe otherwise besides fans who have their rose colored glasses on with everything Josh Allen related.

The play to Diggs as Maye scrambles and hits Diggs going out of bounds? For this young man playing the best team in the league on prime time in Buffalo of all places to go toe to toe with Josh Allen..yeah i do not know what game you were watching. Most people not being bias, got a glimpse of what could be.
I wouldn't say the Pats are back. I would say trending up, but I do not think they are better than the Bills. Maybe a season or two away.
PS:
He was also out there doing things Allen usually does. Bills spent like a quarter blitzing him every down and he ran out the pocket and made a play almost every time.
That 8 yard gain or whatever it was? That was Diggs making a great catch. And the deep one to Diggs was just throwing up a 50/50 ball and Diggs made a great catch on that one as well. His one really good throw was lobbing it over the linebackers in-between coverage for a 15ish yard gain. That was a really good throw. Other than that, it was mainly check downs and short throws and then the receivers made guys miss.
