    Right. So why is the only thing the players are talking about that dumb 9/11 speech?

     

    If I was a player, and I loved/liked/respected McD, and a mic was put in front of my face yesterday, I would have given my guy a vote of confidence and called out the article as BS. Or at least given my own opposing anecdote.

     

    No one did except Micah Hyde.

     

    Not a single other player, let alone a team leader like Josh, has come out and said the perception of McD stated in that article is wrong and that they love and support their guy.

     

     

     

     

    I wouldnt call Sherfield's quote sticking up for McD. He just stated they had a meeting about the old speech and no one cares. No duh.

     

    It would be different if Sherfield said something like "The way they are trying to portray Coach in the media doesnt represent what I've seen at all." Or anything close to that.


    Well good luck trying to prove yourself right 

     

    be careful up there, falling from that high horse might hurt.

    If that article is the best example of players supporting McD, then McD is sunk. And all this article talks about is McD again addressing his 9/11 speech with the team.

     

     

    Ok, so Hyde, which we already knew. Let's see what the Offensive players have to say in pouring out support and love for their coach...

     

     

    Nothing major from Sherfield there other than stating the obvious. We know McD doesnt support terrorism.

     

    How about from the rook...

     

     

    Hmm, how about from the vet Latavius Murray...

     

     

    Ok, so a whole lot of talking about McD again addressing the speech from 2019. But not a single quote about how wrong the article is, and nothing about it misrepresenting McD or how the players feel.

     

    Maybe they just weren't asked the right question. But I've had great bosses/leaders and if something like this came out about them, I would be front and center to whoever would listen railing against the BS.

     

    Reid Ferguson had the most supportive quote

     

     
    maybe…. The players don’t give a s*** about something that was said 4 years ago and think it is stupid they are being asked about it and just say no comment.

    Well Hyde supports him!!!!  Yes interesting that not one player on offense has said anything.

     

    Diggs has been in a snit all season and I haven't read a single post in those threads, but how many there "Blamed McD"?

     

    Again if there is no playoffs sure we'll hear a lot more, but I said from day one that Dorsey I'm 100% sure had to do things on O McD's way and that was an issue.

    Pretty sure you are wrong on the offense players not supporting.

    Refs are KILLING this sport 

     

    I would say the league making violent contact basically a Flag every time is the reason the sport is being killed.

     

    Defenders basically can't hit offensive players with violence, so many split second decisions for defenders to hit someone hard as F*** without getting  a flag or fined.

    with what talent on defense should the Bills be doing this? You’re essentially blaming McDermott for being good enough to get this duct defense to play well enough to keep the bills in games.

     

    Dodson was spying Hurts. DODSON. That is the level of injuries and roster McDermott was handed. 
     

    Against a top 3 offense in the NFL.

     

     

     

    Then why is Dodson in there spying hurts?  Throw in the speedier rookie and let him spy hurts.  

     

    That again is on the HC.  

     

     

  6. I get it, trust me, I have felt the same for a long time.

     

    But.....  We cannot sit here and just accept that there is an inability of the defense to stop offenses every time the game comes down to them and be fine with it.

     

    Only 1 game I remember against a quality opponent that they stopped them.

    (KC last year, giants this year does not count because they got lucky and they are a bad team) 

     

    If the offense scores a FG in overtime, then as a defensive minded HC (supposedly a good one), you should be able to win that game.

  7. Question.

     

    Does anyone feel the "Aggressive but Smart" Mentality for the offense is the reason it struggled as time went on.  


    What I mean is NFL Defenses will watch tape and take what you do best away (or try to at least) and in the beginning this Aggressive but Smart mentality worked, because the offense was aggressive as hell last year and the beginning of this year (this year we had more luck with turnovers in the beginning).  Then defenses said yeah no more deep stuff for you.  Dorsey though, and Allen, kept trying to push the Aggressive but Smart mentality whether through play calling or first reads or heaving it up with the mind set of playing Aggressive over playing smart.  

     

    But there is a fine line between Aggressive and Smart becoming Aggressive and Dumb.  When aggressive becomes the norm, then it can quickly be to the detriment not being able to play smart.

    If you think Diggs’ blocking when he is across the field from the ball carrier is anywhere close to a problem for the Bills offense then I do not know what to do for you bud.

    cool. but ok.  I watch and think to myself, why is he standing around.  so it is what it is.

     

    Time to do other things. good talk

    Playing until the end of the whistle on the OPPOSITE side of the field... I guess anyone looking to make a tempest out of a teapot will say anything to try and be right.

     

    Ok let me rephrase, not going hard when the ball isnt going to you or going away from you.....  which I provided multiple examples.  Keep watching any game since the Offense has been garbage.  

     

    Anyways, proof is in the pudding.

    OK I did.
     

    First play he blocks his man for 2-3 seconds while Cook fumbles on the other side of the field.

     

    Second play yes he does not try to go to Davis who is on the other side of the field (albeit not as far as Cook was on the first play) and about to go down with 3-4 Broncos around him; Diggs’ DB was not involved in tackling Davis.

     

    Third play he stops blocking when again on the other side of the field it is clear that Murray cut it outside and away from Diggs whose DB again ends up nowhere near the play.

     

    It is common for WRs/DBs who are nowhere near the ballcarrier to half-heartedly block each other.

     

    Diggs is not the problem.

     

    Guess playing until the end of the whistle means nothing to him. Again playing selfishly.   But anyone with Rose colored glasses will make excuses.

    In what way is he a problem?


    What plays did he take off? I’d be interested to see any replays if you can provide them.

     

    This was just from the Bills vs Broncos Highlights.  Easy to watch and see.

     

    Watch the first three plays of the Bills offense, Each time after someone else has the ball he stands around.  Each time.  Even the run block he half asses it cause it went the other way. no trying to sell it, nothing. Just eh here I put my arms on you.  "Good Enough".

     

    Interception through Davis hands, even Dion ran over, no Diggs in site.  

     

    That shows to me he is playing selfishly.

     

    And another one

    If you think Diggs is even remotely close to “the problem” then I respectfully and wholeheartedly disagree. 

     

    Not saying he is the problem but its not all on Allen either.  Taking plays off when you don't get the ball to me is selfish.

    The worst thing about Diggs is how badly he wants to win… yuck

     

    Is that why when others get the ball he kind of just stands around....  Especially on pass plays, even those close to him.

     

    Edit: both him and Davis do it and it is annoying seeing it happen consistently
