Having a temper is one thing. Being energetic, upbeat and inspiring is another. Daboll was described as a ball buster and very engaging. Sal also said Joe Brady is more like Daboll than Dorsey and is a very engaging guy.Awesome - Brady's fun at parties but can he run this offense ? Time will tell if he's the Brady we saw @ LSU or the Brady that failed in Carolina.
2 minutes ago, I'm Spartacus said:Jerry Sullivan was the last guy who asked tough questions and the Bills baned him from post game interviews. He was a jerk though, glad he was bounced.
No tough questions allowed. Let's admit the national sports media to our press conferences and see how it goes.

I listened this morning and thought he had an interesting insight about Josh’s mental/emotional state. Sal compared Daboll’s personality to Dorsey’s and suggested the whole offense has taken on Dorsey’s flat-line emotional state, as opposed to Daboll’s firey personality. It make a lot of sense and is the first logical thing I’ve heard that explains Josh’s change in demeanor.
Dorsey's a flat-liner ???

Here's hoping that Josh humiliates Sauce Gardner and the 'D' nullifies Rodgers' December comeback proposal.

McDermott knows what the difference is between weeks 2-4, and the no rythm offense since then.
It's a mystery to me then as to why Dorsey would change what was working.
In my mind, any momentum gained in the Fins game was lost next day Tre was confirmed lost, the Bills arrived in London too late the next week, and losing Milano in that game.

I would hope everyone watching, but I’m not in control of that. I’m not a Josh hater by ANY means, but we rarely seem in synch these days. There are a lot of factors involved, many we know nothing about.
The obvious question McD should have asked himself before canning Dorsey was what is the difference between the offense in weeks 2-4 and the last few weeks.
Was it Dorsey's fault or poor execution on the field of a sound game plan ?
And you're right, there are likely factors both on and off the field that we'll never know about.

Now we are changing the subject I was referring to.
Back to your subject - on whom did Josh's questionable decisions leave an impression ?

“But other than that, Mrs Lincoln, how did you enjoy the play?”
I’d argue that some of the questionable decisions are not always clearly reflected in the stats, but they still leave an impression.
.
Your argument is valid but Josh was not on the field for the punt return against the Jets, Mac Jones turning into Johnny Unitas, or last night's debacle with the Taron PI call and 12 men on the field.
At a minimum, the Bills should be 7-3, maybe 8-2 despite Josh's turnovers.

Expect Allen to get close to 20 picks this year. Think about that!
If we make the playoffs, who cares ? Just for reference and in one less game, Mahomes has 8 and Tua 7.

Who does Mahomes have outside of Kelce that’s better than Davis? I agree Burrow has crazy weapons.I'd argue that Rice is having a better year than Gabe. And Mahomes stats are a little worse than Josh's this year x/c for INTs.
17 minutes ago, Success said:That is true. But the offense has undoubtedly taken a step back under Dorsey. And this year, we upgraded the line, the running game, and added Kincaid.
The offense shouldn't be struggling like it is. Allen has regressed - but that doesn't happen in a vacuum either.
For someone that has regressed, his stats certainly don't make that obvious other than the INTs.

The coaching makes a bigger difference than the weapons, as evidenced by KC's #1 WR being an elderly Tight End.
Both Mahomes & Burrow have alternatives - Josh has Diggs.

No, it’s not. Add Milano, Daquan, Tre, Hyde and Benford.
But I’m with you. I don’t think the year is shot. I believe we can and will likely make the playoffs. We needed a big shakeup though. Dunno if this will fix us for certain but i do believe the season was likely over if we had kept Dorsey.
Injuries all on 'D' - if the offense had held up their part of the bargain, some of the games would have gone to us.

2 minutes ago, 90sBills said:
I got a lot of crap for saying this very same thing this offseason. But I still thought he’s #2 behind Mahomes. Now I’m not so sure. He’s not driven to be better. Burrow has established that he’s #2. Allen might be out of the top 3 qb’s conversation by the end of the season if he keeps playing like this.Is that Allen's fault or the comparable lack of weapons around him ? How would Mahomes or Burrow be doing with our offense ?

Those games were before the injuries on defense.
True, but most games are won if the offense scores 37+ points and we would have won all of the lost games scoring 30+.

There is. Dorsey was Josh's pick for OC. They had a buddy to buddy relationship and not a mentor relationship he had with Daboll. Josh has played like crap. Is it him or the scheme. Now that the year is shot, time to find out.
Not sure why folks think the year is shot ? 10-7 should get them in - Miami got in last year @ 9-8. This team is still the team that blew out the Raiders, Commanders & Dolphins minus a little confidence. That team can beat anyone in the league and we've lost 5 games by a grand total of 23 points.
Hopefully Brady can get the offense back to that mindset and the Bills go on a roll.

Dorsey gets fired bc:
1: Cook cant hold onto the ball
2: Davis cant hold onto the ball.
3: Josh throws into double coverage
4: Josh drops a handoff on the ground
5: Def (which was stellar) commits PI at end of game
6: Def (which was stellar) has 12 men on the field.
Sounds like players arent executing to me.
Can we fire John Butler to not teaching our corners to turn around and find the ball ?

People think Allen is playing good 🤣
You mean Josh Favre ?

I've often wondered if he is going to announce leaving football to pursue a career in golf. Scares me but it has crossed my mind.
In all seriousness, he probably realizes that his dream of winning a SB in Buffalo is getting further and further away. I don't think he ever fully recovered from leaving the field a winner and then 13 seconds happened. He was in a QB zone the likes we've never seen and the man never saw the ball again.
Golf ???? He's got no shot at playing pro golf - zero.

9. Escaped the game with no additional injuries (I think?).
Well, besides Josh maybe re-aggravating his shoulder a bit. Hopefully the 9 full days of rest will help in thay regard.
Unlike Deshaun Watson, Josh will play through it.

Why are we rushing 4 guys in these situations is absurd to me.
Put 9 guys back there. Rush 2. Should have been doing that from play 1 of the Bucs last possession.
This - put Rousseau in the end zone.

Bit of a different style. Daquan can be a penetrator or anchor eating double teams. Ankou is primarily a penetrator so the 2nd level behind him needs to be on point. It's still better than roller derby Ford.
Can the guy in your avatar suit up ?

Simply compare the protection and time Mahomes has versus what Josh has.

Meanwhile, in KC, Mahomes has 321 passing yards and 3 TDs AT HALFTIME!!! McDermott traded them that pick.
And does anyone think the Bills would have won a Super Bowl with Mahomes instead of Allen over the last 5 years ?

Poor execution on plays. Knox's drop which is right in his hands ends the drive. What could have been? Quick 5 - 10 yard passes was working. Get down in the red zone, now what we do (Duh....)? Many bad throws by Allen. Shouldn't have had only 10 points going into the fourth. The D made Jones look like a superstar. Guys wide open. No pressure on Jones. This was all on the players.
Can't remember the last time Knox made a contested catch

Yes, we can mathematically finish 14-3. Will we? Not even close.
More like 9-8 at this rate ... @Phi / KC / Cinci / LAC / Mia.
Firing Dorsey did not solve Bills' number 1 problem: Sean McDermott (damning Warren Sharp article)

Excellent article backed up by actual statistics.
Send it to Terry so he can use it as the rationale for firing McD after this season.
