https://ifunny.co/fun/oqDHT7ID6?s=cl I hope this works. Bad language, but the laugh I needed after yesterday

Not being a dick, but why? I never understood why people thought he was a good hire. Has he ever been successful as an offensive coordinator?

3rd worst? Is that real? Wow. I had no idea. That’s honestly as scary to me as our offensive performance. Seriously. That’s on McDermott and not very process edit - yup. That’s true. We went from being in the top 10 last year to bottom 3. That’s alarming

Maybe I’m wrong, but I think we typically have less penalties than our opponent. Our offense finds a way to get negative yards on first down too often, but I equally can’t stash’s Daboll. Either way, it was way worse under Rex. But hey, I’m wrong a lot

What does money spent mean? Mahomes doesn’t make much. Why doesn’t actual performance set the tone? If that’s how much they make, I think we are getting a great value honestly

I actually completely agree.

We are both up now. One of his better ones if I’m being honest

You’re absolutely right. What’s sad is that it didn’t even phase me. He was that gun shy with the deep ball that he couldn’t even do it when it was expected. He’s just plain broken

There are contenders, rebuilders, and dumpster fires. One is taken for granted, on gives you hope, and the other makes you wonder why you do it anymore. As I watched the forums since over the past few weeks and moreso after our last blow-out, I can see posters sway between the last two. I don't have an answer myself personally, but I know it was hard to keep the fire going yesterday. With that.... 1 - Peterman - Someone made a comment that I was surprised how I didn't review Anderson the previous weeks. I knew Anderson was nothing more than a stop-gap who'd had a small handful of practices and isn't part of our future plans. Peterman not only was part of the plan, but he was actually picked to be our season starter. Our team felt strongly enough about him to trade McCarron and let him run our team. As he started the game, I wondered how much his previous performers would affect his overall confidence. It was a mixed bag result for me. Peterman looked downfield often, but rarely took the shot. I think I read that he broke an NFL record for 31 completed passes, but fewest overall yards. The Bears defense baited him into dump off passes to which they closed on quickly. But it was the tipped pass int's and fumbles that really showed where Peterman was at. The frustration, but almost acceptance in realizing that he is just cursed as an NFL starter was all over his face. I applaud his effort to try and shake off his past, but it was clear to me that his confidence is shattered and his performance all season is a scary indication of how our FO evaluates NFL talent. For them to think this was their guy worries me the most about their ability to put together a successful offensive roster. 2 - Trubisky - As we are comparing our rookie Qb to other's, I found myself watching Trubisky to see if he could be one of the QB's of the future. I left the game unimpressed. For every crisp pass he completed, he equally had some passes that I don't think even he knew where they were going. His pick to Tre was an absolute gift. I will say that I didn't realize how well he could run because our defense apparently was terrified of him keeping the ball on the QB option keeper. Overall, I still don't see what the Bears saw in him to give up the capital to move up one spot and I believe his performance this season is a great example of how an offensive coordinator schemes to meet his talent. I know it's dumb to throw stones in a glass house, but I'll pass on the Trubisky train. 3 - Execution - A lot of people are starting to ask why Rex got the Axe in 2 seasons while McDermott seems to be getting a pass. I'm going to both make my point and then counter it. For those with a short memory, the team's execution under Rex was terrible. It wasn't just that we lost, it's that we were heavy on penalties, blowing assignments, and players were leaking their frustrations anonymously to the media. We haven't seen much of that out of McDermott as penalties and blown assignments seem dramatically better. However, in this game I saw glimpses of a team that is starting to give up in the face of futility. The offensive turnovers were rookie mistakes and inexcusable. I almost feel bad for Peterman, who put together one of his better games (that's not saying much) only to have offensive players make stupid mistakes on the field that led to turnovers. For our talent level, we need to be fundamentally sound, and we weren't that against the Bears. The Logan Thomas late hit was a joke and he should have been pulled from the game. 4 - If you’re going to try, go all the way. Otherwise don’t even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives, jobs. And maybe your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery, isolation. Isolation is the gift. All the others are a test of your endurance. Of how much you really want to do it. And you’ll do it, despite rejection in the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine 5 - Read-Option Defense - The Bears game reminded me a lot of the Seahawks game we played in Toronto and we got gashed by Wilson. The difference here was that the Bears actually let their tailback run it almost every time. The amount of respect we gave to Trubisky was surprising to me as we gave up solid gains on most of the read options plays. If I'm an opposing offense, I'm adding that play to our scheme when we play the Bills. I don't know if it was an off game or a genuine flaw in our system, but it was alarming. 6 - Special Teams - I think I'm there on getting rid of Crossman. I just don't know what to say anymore about it. But the execution on Punts is mind blowing to me. Not to be old school, but special teams are meant to be seen and not heard. The NFL keeps making changes to the point where I'm surprised that aspect of the game isn't completely eliminated. To that point, we find a way to create a negative gain at least once a game via punts. I'm just over it. 7 - Dawkins - I've been overall impressed with our offensive line performance this season. It was rough to start, but they aren't the dumpster fire we saw in the pre-season. Some are complaining about the holes being created for the running backs, but I think they've done enough for the talent we have. With that being said, Dawkins has made a few eye opening mistakes the past few weeks and I'm wondering if more is going on there. His leg whip penalty was stupid and he has had more than a few guys absolutely blow past him. I'm wondering if it's an injury or something more, but he usually isn't mentioned much in a game, meaning he did his job. 8 - Evaluating Talent - While McDermott won't come out and say it, we saw a lot of starters coming out of the game yesterday without injury. It looks as though the 2-7 record is setting in and we are in player evaluation mode. Teller took some snaps, McCoy was out of the game a lot. McDermott even said they wanted to see what some guys can do. While I don't disagree entirely, the message to fans debating buying tickets for the rest of the season might be affected. I also wonder what message that sends to the players who are looking for reasons to play their heart out. 9 - Another Blow-Out - There's a bunch of stats out there about number of games lost by 15+ points. It's a scary number for a team who's calling card is their passion and commitment to the process. Even in making the playoffs last year, there were at least 3 solid blow-out losses. This is an NFL team with multi-million dollar professionals. Even the worst teams are made up of elite College players. Teams have bad days, but has anyone suffered this many blow out losses in a 2 year span? Even when we were 3-13, I don't think it was this bad. There's something to that and the fact that it doesn't seem to be noticed by the Front Office is an issue. I don't believe in sacrificing someone to appease the masses, but there's more going on here than a simple rebuild and it's in a historic fashion. 10 - Daboll - 10 carries. McCoy, the man our offense is supposed to revolve around got 10 carries. He was quiet after the game and seen despondent on the sideline. To me, this sums up our offense. When we can't figure out how to get our best offensive weapon more than 10 carries in a game, we are doing something wrong. Who on our team is more deserving to make something happen. Then, you have Zay Jones off the field for Pryor. How has our most productive, young WR lost snaps to the guy who's been cut by half the league recently and made crucial mistakes? I'm sorry, but sometimes it's that simple. The guy doesn't know how to utilize our players. On to next week where the board will come crashing down if Darnold lights us up. Go Bills!

I had to work last night and I am right now. I’m going to put it together tonight as I sit on it all day. The struggle is real

Beat me to it

I will throw up if this happens. We can’t afford to address our offensive issues in the draft. If there isn’t a guy of value, trade back. It’s a moot point as the new factory of sadness will take Bosa to replace Mack.

I’m glad they said no and assume it means he should see an extension this offseason

http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/25173841/los-angeles-rams-inquired-jadeveon-clowney-jerry-hughes-dante-fowler-jr-trade Didn’t see this anywhere else.

2 - whose fault is that. Going into our second season, how do we have arguable the worst QB roster in the league?

@26CornerBlitz I trusted you, and you failed me

Man, I already completely forgot about that piece of *****

A game that men play with other men, between the hours of 2 and 3am, off interstates, at rest stop bathrooms....

Maybe he’s prepping you for another change he’s making. What are your thoughts about tummy sticks?

This is absolute *****. How does this guy have as many passing touchdowns in one game as our entire offense all season? Tell me again that coaching and scheme doesn't rank above talent on offense sometimes? This is why Daboll has to go

Am I alone in thinking WIley was one of the most overrated players to leave the Bills? He had one decent season here, took big money and left. Then never lived up to the contract. Why he’s leading the charge is beyond me

Well, that settles it. He just wasn’t ready before.

Let's be best friends

Worse than the 49ers? I'll take that bet.

I'll keep saying it. There are worse NFL offensive rosters and they do more with less.
