The guy who posted a pic on this same page 10 posts up...for starters

Maybe hes been reading your posts and is as lost as the rest of us?

To any actual intelligent fan - that answer is obvious and has been discussed ad nauseum though this. Its the 'fans' who feel otherwise. When logic and common sense are applied, of course he isnt. Sadly, some people just dont get it. No one was this stupid during the drought. Its funny what winning does and how it brings out the silly takes. But silly posts like this are the result of those same 'fans' who (regardless of the situation) get upset bc for them, its SB or bust. Of course, thats the goal, but most people understand an NFL season never goes the way you want and expect. Its not a perfect world, but they choose to view it that way. Its the same people who thought QB1 was washed or had fooled the world the last 3 yrs after week 1. To most people its crazy... but its scarey how many of these people actually exist

There are times when I wonder what an offensive coach would bring, but generally when you replace someone who is perceived to not get over the hill - it turns into a grass is always greener situation and it doesn't end well. Respectfully, im glad you are in the minority and the stability McD has brought has allowed the team to be successful. Most people see its because of that, not inspite of that. Lucky for us, the only person it really matters to sees and knows this.

I feel like this is the OP under an alt handle. Gotta be. The odds of this are that of someone who wins the lotto 2x. If thats not the case, i feel like you two need to go have a beer. We will let you know how the season ends!

Hopefully your posting privileges are on the hot seat after a stinker like this.

Ugh.. Cheerful 'ra ra' Bills employee. Not a fan. That said, youd know that and everyone elses opinion by reading the existing super long topic on her....

I laugh each year the Orton cigar photo pops up on my FB feed from XX yrs ago. Sadly, he was in such preservation mode at the end after knowing he was going to retire, I think the phantom sacks kinda washed away what he was able to do here. In the end, even though I like the dude and even have one of hos game worn jerseys - he was just the anti-Manuel. He would sling it and take chances EJ wouldnt. He was a very poor mans Fitz and even poorer mans Favre. Dude just slung it and at the time it was a breath of fresh air

Its funny, I thought that as well last week and googled it, but there was no credit anywhere for Goodman. The only place Ive been able to find confirmation is the youtube video where someone asks in the comments and FD answers yes. It sure sounded like him, but every once in a while you get a voice that sounds like someone else so you cant be sure. Gotta watch out for the knock off Morgan Freemans out there!

The end kinda dumps water on the fire, but before they mention the asterisks dont line up for what Pitt actually uses it sure is funny!

Himself

Word is he has been nicked up as well, which im sure hasnt helped the situation

Every drive should end in a touchdown. WR catching the ball will help as well. Hopefully the RBs run good and gain yards. If our point total is higher than theirs, we should win!

Are we just forgetting the BB convo and the rumblings about how he wanted out? Assuming it was over a rift in philosophy, it seems pretty presumptuous that he'd just tuck tail and come back to a situation that may not have been tenable for the long haul anyway. Also, like another poster said, half this board was champing at the bit to fire him. 6 plays went by w/o a run and it was like the world was on fire. But hey, the grass is always greener- am I right?!

In fairness, I think most fan bases do the exact same thing

I mean, outside of Mahomes, Rogers and Favre, it seems most qbs who go commercial heavy can have the criticism of 'maybe you shld soend more time playing qb rather than doing commercials' levied at them. I dont think thats actly taking away as most are shot in the offseason. Its just low hanging fruit and I hope josh is ablento buck the trend. 1 bad game against a team who seems to have his number doesnt give us our answer. It does however, give the sky is falling crowd something to complain about - see OP

I dont see how anyone rational can disagree with this. Was it the most fun to watch? No. Was it fristrating at time watching him repeatedly run Cook at Williams rather than get in space or seemingly call a run play just because he hadnt called on in a while like in OT? No. But the script was there. Josh just got sick of or too impatient to keep doing what he himself was preaching in taking what the D gave him. All Dorse can do is call the plays. To judge him bc his qb went off script is judging him falsely. Are there issues? Sure. Rather than having someone who grounds him I think KC encourages him but thats not whats being discussed. You couldnt have spoken truer words and it amazes me people could disagree

I mean, i guess I can see how youd think that or rather he'd come off like that. I guess my point was more, Maddy, like Chris Brown are obviously team employees. While Brown seems to have the ability to at least feign objectivity, IMO, Maddy does not

I mean, in a normal instance Id 100% agree. But this is the same man it took until the 4th qtr to throw a ball away - and im not sure if we ever did get a slide. Like before the half when hes jumping in the air infront of 2 jets. For what?4th and 8 or 4th and 6? Had he have played smart the rest of the game youd be totally right. Unfortunately he didnt. Which also brings me to my other point. I didnt love what Dorsey did. But, he gave Josh the plan to best the Jets. He just stopped taking the 4-6 yr chunks. We cant judge the OCs plan correctly bc he didnt see the plan executed as intended. He can only call the plays. The Jets bet the game on he wldnt be able to be patient and take the 5 yrd plays for the entirety of the game. They were right and won in part because of it

Hindsight is 20-20, but that wasnt my point. It didnt, regardless if it shld or shldnt have happened. Thus, its a moot point with no right answer

Agreed What bugged me the most,(and this just is what it is as its the world and times) is that how people seem to take nothing burgers and turn it into something for the sake of drama. False narratives are created and could get big enough to create an issue where there wasnt one before. Drama for the sake of drama is silly in sports because we, as a city, generally have a good thing going here. It would be a shame to drive someone out of town for nonsense. Id imagine most players tune stuff like this out, but when this became a national thing - no one would believe what they were telling us. Thats just so much more boring so I suppose I get it. I also dont think the net ramifications are being taken into consideration. Everyone's favorite WR had endless crap talked about him for a few days. People talked themselves into disliking the guy bc they felt slighted in that maybe he didnt like it here. Its a good thing he was immovable so the result was always he cant go anywhere. It always struck me as funny because Steph is a smart dude. He knows this and had to be aware he couldnt move even if he tried to get himself moved. But that didnt stop people from making it a thing. Obviously hindsight makes this an easier criticism, but the point remains.

I find her voice grating and her insights kinda common sense and lackluster. Id much prefer the Sals of the world than a rah rah fan whos happy to be included hired by the team. If it was a guy Id feel the same way. She came from college and IMO, she still has a very college/student reporter feel to her work. Shes seemingly gotten better during her time on the radio, but it still has an amateur feel

As i said in the 2nd thread on this.. This is the closest you'll ever get to him speaking his truth in public. The man said he likes to poke the bear. He knows what hes doing, but this should put this to bed. Von did the club a huge solid here. Anything else that anyone has to say is chasing ghosts. He said exactly what youd want him to say. Nothing to see here but positives.

I mean... even if he wasnt the HC in NJ, it sounded like he might have been on the outs anyway. Agree or disagree, its not like McD was getting booted and Dabes hired. Would make a return after a flounder (if that were to happen) tough regardless

This team had to stay out of their own way and couldnt. There are lessons to be learned. Josh kept saying be smart w the throws and preserve his health. It took 4 qtrs to finally throw the ball away, and im not sure if we ever did get a slide out of him. The sky is not falling and theyll be ok. Allen just needs to figure it out and hopefully getting embarrassed on national tv does that. The Jets didnt have a legit sustained TD drive all night and even then it took an amazing catch. The kick coverage scared the hell out of me all game, as I was most scared about that and them busting long runs. That 2nd down run was dumb. Running wont help you establish a rhythm in OT. I wish the Jets got the ball. Bills scored 1td all night. The chances of it happening there were low. Id much rather stop them, try and flip the field and kick a fg. For as disappointed as I am in Josh (who will rebound) im equally disappointed in KD. Rather than moving a step forward, this was less fluid and cohesive than last years offesne. No plays building on each other... no flow. The runs still feel like an afterthought, I.E. protecting Josh from another pick or 'gezz, we shld prob mix a run in here to stay balanced I guess.' Why did they run at Williams as much as they did? JA will be fine. Ill chalk this game up to an excellent D... but if this was KD's A game m, we might be in trouble.
