Bob in STL

You are looking for one person to blame, huh?

Their defense gave up 497 yards. The Bills lost because they beat themselves with missed plays and penalties. I agree with giving Miami credit, they were ready to play, but your one liners are off.

? The Bills had 40+ minutes of possession and 497 yards, but ok, if you say so.

Always appreciate your hard work to write these but this one misses the mark. We started with a skeleton crew on defense and gave up 21 points, and 7 are on the offense. We used every O-lineman that we had. We were literally down to ZERO backups. McKenzie spent part of the game hooked to an IV, as did Knox and Spencer Brown (who had a horrible game). Diggs was on and off the field all game. Davis dropped two big passes, one in the end zone. Allen was off at several key moments. With all the substitutions he seemed to lose his cool. Missed on throws. Through it all we had 497 yards and 40 minutes of possession and still lost because we just didn't finish, we made too many mental errors. Dropped TDs, a missed FG, terrible decisions at the end of the first half, and the ill fated 2nd last drive of the game ending on the 2. Why not roll Josh out on that last series and RPO? The final drive was killed by poor clock management and a holding call. The dumb penalties were a problem. We lost our cool. Yet, given all the injuries we dominated them again. Had we held on, kicked the long FG and won it would be a totally different vibe. We hung tough even though we played down to Miami's level. We have to get healthy. Now the OL is hurting. Miami will not fare as well in December.

Ok coach

Yes. They called up Mancz from the PS in advance of announcing Morse was inactive. Sure looks like McD was thinking this was possible.

Yes. Morse was limited in practice all week. Von Roten took more snaps.

Moving two players is almost never the right thing to do on the OL. Von Roten is the guy, like it or not. Mancz is the backup. McD saw this coming.

According to Eric Wood, Von Roten took most of the snaps at center. He did ok last week other than a few errant snaps.

Poyer was bit of a surprise.

A division game is usually more important. They must feel the injuries will not get better without rest, therefore rest them and have them ready for the remainder of the season.

Well it appears it’s might be Morse, not Knox that is the late inactive.

I think it’s wrong info. Looking for other sources and see none. With Sweeney inactive it is BS. Instead Morse is out. Ugh.

Nothing to add. My brother. Nothing official. I said I hope it’s BS. I came hear looking for information and there is none. It must be wrong.

I just heard more bad news on Knox. I hope it is BS.

It turns out we don’t cut anyone. Hyde’s spot is open with him on IR

Hart is a backup G/T. Von Roten was backing up C/G. Mancz can also backup C/G. Seems like this call up has something to do with Morse being questionable. Quessenbury is the back up swing tackle.

They were good players when we got them. The expectations were they would be solid starters. They both thrived in McDermotts system.

Go to sleep.

Who do we cut?

Sure. ? If everyone else that has been playing DB for the past 3-4 years (such as Johnson, Hamlin, Neal and Lewis) all get hurt, then there is a chance. He is not “tiny” for a safety. He is actually bigger than Milano at LB.

Johnson and Hamlin are getting the first shots at replacing Hyde.

Miami is more of a college football town than pro football. Nice place to visit, a bit overrated though. Their fans are fickle. I remember when they used to wave white hankies.

Milano and Hyde/Poyer. Our safeties were a strength and Milano has been the big play guy.

Big loss. Next man up. Jaquan Johnson is ready to play. Move on.
