Ultimately I’d like to see Ben Johnson HC and Mark Brunel OC.
Yes please. Get the offensive HC, let him implement the system, if JA kills it, great bc his coach won’t be going anywhere.
-
So, the Panthers took the wrong QB and Fields is out of a job.
-
Right and Tyrod was a Pro Bowler, based on Stats.

I don't know but it's much more realistic to move on from Dorsey. If you see the same problems then you know it's likely McD. Seems straightforward to me, but I'm oversimplifying it.
Kinda like Frazier?

Mahomes is struggling with a similar model … an elite weapon, a good OL and then a bunch of guys. They’re integrating some RD2 WR’s and we’re integrating rookie Kincaid.
Difference is their defense is healthy and dominating.
Ours is injured and likely the difference between at worst 6-3, now 5-4.
But we all knew we didn’t have enough on offense. KC has super bowls and an offensive guru in Reid to hope they figure it out.
Maholmes is struggling, but at very least he has Reid on his side and knows what Andy teaches is a winning philosophy. Josh doesn’t have that. Also, Maholmes came up in a system that had more to work with and they had no D, so they spent there to get that, but they also invested a lot of draft capital in the offense, a lot of those picks haven’t worked out the way they might have wanted, but it looks like Rice is pretty good, and Pacheco is a starting RB, they definitely don’t have great WRs though. The Bills essentially have given Allen, Diggs and just wasted a ton of resources on the D. It’s not like he’s ever had anything to work with and is being supported by not having to be perfect.
Again, Allen has regressed, a lot. That said, I have to put that at 20% him, 30% terrible roster management and 50% coaching.

I would rather watch a team with a chance to beat anyone than a team that we cover our eyes and hope they don't lose by 30.
You think you're funny or something?
Sorry I'm not just a standard knee-jerk Bills fan that wants a little nuance.
If we fire him, I hope we make the Super Bowl and he beats us. I really do. We would 100% deserve it.
So you are cool with “good enough” and won’t take a chance to be great. This fear the world mentality gets you no where.

I don't think he trusts anything going on out there.
We also don't have the talent people want to believe we do. Diggs, Kincaid & a good OL should be enough to be way better than we've been, but outside of that he's throwing to a RD4 WR and RD5 WR. They're ok.. but it's getting to the point where Shakir may be a more reliable option than Davis.. which isn't saying much.
Combine that with our OC seeming incapable of adjustments or any semblance of cohesive game-flow and we get what we've been seeing.
....which makes Josh Allen look like what the OP alludes to.
I think this is the real situation. I don’t think he trusts what he’s being taught and that’s leading to hesitation. I think there’s a pretty strong lack of faith in Davis at this point too, he seems to double take before throwing to him and it’s causing problems. Josh is playing terrible, no two ways about that.Unfortunately, we are looking at Carolina w Newton all over again. We are relying on the QB to play Superman with basically one weapon and a bunch of JAGs, wasting resources on the D, and multiple picks on RBs. Without an MVP, near perfect season from Allen, the team loses. This is not a winning model and it’s certainly not sustainable. A big reason we have the geniuses we have in charge here today was that poor model that allowed you to win in the regular season and get blown up in the playoffs, while running their unicorn into the ground. We were fortunate enough to land an extra magical unicorn and in short order, have him on the way to the slaughter house.

I hope he comes in and lights it up, because I think he is better than about 25% of the quarterbacks playing in the league right now, but for some reason, no one wanted him.
Plain and simple, he’s not better than any of the current starters out there. He is on par with Darnold, plus he’s a dick.

I don’t see it as much of an improvement to be honest. I’m surprised the Jets didn’t find someone to make a deal for at the deadline or try to resurrect the corpse of Matt Ryan / Flacco. Bet they are wishing the could have held onto White instead of being handcuffed with Wilson, I bet they would have another 2-3 wins if they had.

Great, can’t wait to hire some mediocre Brandon Staley/Matt Nagy clone to appease the “offense only” crowd and watch us finish 7-10 every season.
If we fire McD I hope he wins five super bowls.
Guess you would rather watch a 12-5 season (or worse) with all the wins coming over teams with losing records and never having a chance against real teams. That’s just purgatory.

Tre is gone.
See if Knox will take a pay cut, he’s just not worth the price, with Kincaid here, his value is even lower to us.
Von, better hope he gets it going, if not, I’d designate him a post June 1 cut and be done w it. It’s basically a wash if you do it that way. Sucks to already the mistake out. He’s a glaring weakness that’s getting too many reps for us at this point.
This roster needs a hard reset.

Mark my words, we fire McD we won’t sniff the same amount of success for the rest of Josh’s career.Im not going to throw away one of the winningest coaches this shite franchise has ever seen after a down season. No way.
Who cares if you aren’t winning anything that matters?

The players are going to quit on this guy.
Unbelievable.
Kinda looks like they already have. Players only meetings generally aren’t ringing endorsements to the coaching staff. If players feel they have to hold each other accountable bc the coaches aren’t doing it effectively, it had better work and quick or the coaches will be done.

Don't hold your breath about major changes.
Yeah we should completely fall apart and be worst in league. NOT!!!
We need a massive reset year. I’d pull the plug on every single S on this team, just start over. On the DL, only Groot and Oliver by virtue of the contract would stay. If by chance I can get Jones back at a reasonable price, I’m in, but you gotta have another option, he can’t stay healthy. Make Von a June 1 designation.
On O, at very least, Davis is out. Gotta try to do something with Knox, ask him to take less or whatever, but that contract vs the production and Kincaid in the picture, gotta make that better. Morse.. ehh, Schnoman.. ehhh, probably gotta keep him. Absolutely must go get a RT. RB is STILL a mess. Cook is not it, he’s what he was in college, a glorified WR, still a liability in pass pro. Nobody on the roster deserves a spot next year, though Cook will be back bc of his cost. Still need 2 outside WRs, we have nothing outside of Diggs. Oh and the most obvious, a new coordinator.
What I expect to happen, is Dorsey gets canned, they sign a mid-level #2WR, OL dumpster diving.
Defense remains largely unchanged, just run it back healthy, without Floyd and Poyer.
The same loser coaching gets us the same ***** results and I sit here saying “I told you all McDermott is just this generations Marv Lewis” for about 4 more years, then Allen will eventually get dinged up and be done, we have the Cam Newton Carolina Panthers all over again. Wasted time/talent/resources on defense and rely on a QB to be Super Man for offense.
-
Step one to fixing the Defense is SIT VON MILLER. He’s a liability. Every time he’s on the field it takes AJE, Groot or Floyd off the field and right now, he’s not better than any of them at anything. I don’t know if he will regain form, but the defense is worse with him on the field and it’s not close.
Real question, WTF happened to Taron Johnson, it’s like he forgot what inside leverage is.
Safety is everything I was afraid it would be, two old men trying to keep up with athletic freaks that are at least 5 years younger than them and a guy who just flat out sucks. Oh and some special teamers.
McClappy has his work cut out for him with zero quality at LB (while Bernard is out), a bunch of sub par athletes at corner, geezers or whiffs waiting to happen at S and no pass rush or run stuffing abilities to speak of.

The Giants don’t have the horses.
For goodness sake they have played 4 games with Tyrod Taylor and Tommy Devito at QB.
What do you think our record would be would those two!?
Exactly, by and large, that team is built of street FA and practice squad players. They have a couple of really good players and about 45 that are below average.

He was targeted twice. I don’t think those two targets cost us the game.The decision to go to him on the INT was pretty bad.
Blame him for the “grounding”. Sure. But it didn’t cost us this game.
The grounding cost a shot at 3 points. Could have been a huge difference in score and momentum. The int was awful on Allen, BUT there was no effort on Davis’s part to do anything about it either.

Worth noting with some of the Gabe Davis criticisms this week. “Where was Gabe?”
Diggs and Kincaid did everything we begged from a first and second target. They were open a ton, caught just about everything, 16 catches for about 160. We got that 1/2 production everybody was begging for. Davis was a role player on the outside. That’s what people have pounded the table for.
We have to do better at getting him and Cook involved situationally for chunk plays and RAC. Let Shakir find some soft spots. Davis brings some speed and size on the outside, and Cook should be tearing up LB’s in the passing game. Those guys are certainly good enough to fill those roles with the emerging of Kincaid as a legit option.
Didn’t notice him being the guy they were going to on the INT and the grounding call? His inability to read situations makes him more risk than reward. It’s time people see him for what he is, a liability.

I hope you went with Kincaid....
I did… and I have a feeling his fumble could be my undoing. Need the Jets D to get less than 5 points tomorrow night to win.. take away his fumble it’s 7 and a lot more comfortable.

Had no bearing on the outcome.
BS, with the time out in the bag, there’s a chance Cinci tried to pass there and Bills get a pick 6. You can’t say it didn’t change the outcome, it changed the situation completely.

So take a way the barely over .500 record because that somehow would make McD look BETTER?
