This is true. Everyone knew Josh couldn’t hold the ball today like he did last week. Houston is too fast. Probably half of the sacks tonight were because of him holding the football. Not sure if it was because no one was open or because he was trying to scramble but he didn’t play well

Houston had a net of 35 yards in the second half. They scored 3 points after Shakir fumbled deep inside Bills territory. The defense was not to blame tonight just as they were not to blame in the other L’s

This is not true

To be honest, I hate how these games make me feel and how we amplified something something (relatively) insignificant that’s supposed to entertainment into something that negatively affects our mood.

Yeah I don’t think Joe Brady did them many favors tonight. But there were times Josh had to make better decisions. But on the list of blame, he’s probably at the very bottom

I think that’s why he was holding onto the ball. You can’t do that with Houston’s pass rush but there was no where to go wit the ball

100% yes. The problem like someone said is that there’s not really another play caller on the staff. Who’s gonna call plays? Aaron Kromer or Rob Boras? But every games they’ve lost has been on the offense

To be honest, Buffalo is playing a second string QB. They really should take care of business. I know Houston has a good defense and some good skill players but there are no excuses

Of course, no Chase against NE next week

It starts up front. You have players who don’t hold their gaps and keep the second level defenders clean. Aside from Jones, the other DT’s struggle with this. As much as Walker has flashed at times he’s shown some bad reps in run defense. On the second level you have defenders who miss tackles - or who can’t get off block namely Bernard but also Williams, Milano, Poyer, Johnson and the CB’s all have fallen victim to this as well. I don’t think they have the true run stuffer they need and it’s seems like it’s a philosophical thing because they value pass rush over run stuffing I want to see them sign Kaleb Saunders and rotate him with Jones

I think Denver wins the West but Is still see KC winning at arrowhead. If they can beat Indy, I see them with a good chance to run the table

Could but I think Stroud returns on Thursday.

7 targets 2 catches 21 yards i think Gabe gets the call up and out performs him

Someone from the media should ask him about Daboll. McDermott’s response will be telling. He could say, “no, Joe Brady is our OC and I trust that he’ll get things figured out.” Or he could say “I don’t really want to get into that right now” or “no I haven’t thought about that yet.” if he says something closer to the latter I think there’s a chance Daboll returns. Hopefully someone words their question intentionally

It’s not the OL. Josh is not getting rid of the football - likely because his receivers aren’t open and when they are he doesn’t trust them. Josh was pressured 17 times yesterday. His average time to throw was as high as it’s been since 2018. He’s either not seeing answers or he doesn’t have answers

Would not want to see that

Because if an owner held every coach “accountable” for not winning a Super Bowl, the turnover rate would 90% ever season. Beane and McDermott have been very successful in Buffalo. Ultimately they never made it to the SB. That’s the same case for every team since 2018, with the exception of one season.

It’s being reported by beat reporters that they made up and are on good terms

There’s a good reason for this. Teams cover the outside receivers M2M. The middle my the field gets constricted when teams stack the box. Part of the decisions are dictated by offensive personnel aka the WR’s on this team are really holding this team back and Brady isn’t creative enough to overcome

They dont have the talent to beat defenses down the field

That’s exactly what he says he wanted to do, and why he’s frustrated with Joe Brady: "Um, but it can't just be one one phase of your offense. It's got to be two working, you know, in concert with one another. So, you guys know I say this quite a bit. It starts up front with the with the line of scrimmage, controlling the line of scrimmage early, and it that sets up other things. So, that's that's what I look at first is are we controlling the line of scrimmage, and then how does that set up our passing game? So, no, they go hand in hand."

The really didn’t get smoked in pass pro. Josh had the most time to throw as he’s had since 2018

This is a little misleading. This was his exact quote: ”"Um, but it can't just be one one phase of your offense. It's got to be two working, you know, in concert with one another. So, you guys know I say this quite a bit. It starts up front with the with the line of scrimmage, controlling the line of scrimmage early, and it that sets up other things. So, that's that's what I look at first is are we controlling the line of scrimmage, and then how does that set up our passing game? So, no, they go hand in hand." (7:42-8:04) he later said: Well, it is because it's an important part of our offense. It's we've got we've got a great quarterback and you want to be able to move the ball two dimensionally and um you know, we should be able to move the ball with Josh through the air. How exactly is this incorrect? You need a balanced offense to compete in the postseason. The last three Super Bowl winners have proven this. You need a team that wins in the trenches. Also if you listened to the rest of the press conference he was very frustrated at how the Bills struggled to pass the football. It didn’t exactly sound like someone who wants to ground and pound and NOT pass the ball as you are projecting here

This take isn’t correct. Don’t get me wrong, the loss to Miami was disgusting but considering that Buffalo took down Kansas City last week, I’m pretty sure it’s not a true indication of their team. They just played like crap. I’ve also never believed that the Bills need home field advantage. They just have to get hot at the right time and yes, it’s still a long season

If he turns his head around he might be able to knock it down
