Our main issue is the OL and they are still better in pass pro then run blocking , now this is just my opinion but I think we need to figure out how to give Josh more time in the pocket & WR’s to get separation , because our bread and butter is still our passing game , like I said just my opinion

More time ? With the the OL at full strenght and a TD and using more slat plays for quick passes, leaving time to the pass rush

I agree, I think it’s not just a matter of running more, but picking better moments to do so. The Jags loss was definitely ugly, but I’m also hesitant to take the ball out of Josh’s hands too often. We need to be careful about the balance of more run calls if we go that direction. Singletary and Moss plays seem like wasted downs at this point. You can’t throw the ball every down, but I worry that mixing in more runs won’t free much up. Defensive coordinators probably don’t have much fear of Moss or Singletary. I’d be comfortable selling out to stop Josh as a D coordinator, even if we did run the ball more. I’d have confidence that a four man front with everyone else in coverage is enough to stop the Bills run game. I still agree with your point, but we’re in a tough spot with subpar backs and an o line who can’t block.
Your is a very good point. But sometime a weak area could be used like a decoy. I also agree that Allen has to remain the main weapon, we are talking about a top 5 QB that with a great OL could be a nightmare every single game.

Another thing it could be to use some no huddle offense to break the defenses rythm and formation. Maybe we are not able to play no huddle properly ? Sometimes it could help that also.
1 minute ago, SirAndrew said:I’ve given up on being able to run the ball with our current roster. I understand it’s universally accepted you need a run game to win titles, but we simply don’t. The best we can do is play to the strengths of our passing game, and see how far it takes us. It might prove costly, but emphasizing the run game isn’t getting us anywhere. We need to restructure the entire offensive game plan. It’s time to pick better moments to run the ball, incorporate quick passes, and get the ball to Bease and Diggs. We’ve fallen in love with chucking the ball downfield to Sanders.
I have no issue with running, but Josh under center on first down gives away a run call. We must mix in the run game more effectively. What’s not going to happen is us becoming ground and pound. There’s quotes from pundits talking about how crucial it is to run the ball with bad weather on the way. It’s not going to work that for us, we just need better efficiency. Our coaching staff needs to have a better feel for the trajectory of the game. They made no adjustments to help Josh when it was clear the o line was having a meltdown. We have an incredibly well coached and well prepared team, but Daboll in particularly seems stubborn about making in game adjustments.
I agree with you about not try to become ground and pound, main reason because our backs are not so good. But mix it more often would make other DCs adjust and get out of their comfort zone.

While I get what you are thinking and changing things up needs to happen...in your scenario who are you taking off the field too make this happen? Sanders? Beasley?
Being that as you said we don't have stud RBs would this not decrease the talent level of our players in the field?
Like you said something have to change saw that it seems the other DCs have our number… i got what you mean but it doesn’t seem that play with all Diggs, Bease and Sanders together right now is working. Without forgetting that with this set Diggs get very few touch and so Bease and Sanders.
I don’t mean to play with two backs all the sets, but here and there could help and be difficult for the defenses adjust. -

yeah!--if one stood on the other's shoulders, they could wear a single uniform and pretend we got Derrick Henry back there!
Very funny of you. We here giving opinion, right ? You don’t agree ? Your right without being ironic.
That said ther’s only one Henry i know… other very good and productive backs aren’t that tall, but they works.
i don’t say that our run game would become stellar, but could help and gain some good yards not relying just on Allen and the Wr’s. -

We would need two RB’s to do that.
Maybe Moss and Breeda together ?

It could be just for tomorrow, but because lately we had hard time on offense, it could be a way to be more effective.
i’m reffering at use two backs in the same time, maybe our running game could improve even with a bad OL, running not only in the middle but outside also, lightening the pressure on Allen and be more balanced.
What you think ? I know we don’t have stud backs but playing two together it could work.

After sunday loss i opened a thread calling for the unacceptable lack of player’s effort, hearth and desire. Well… you know what ? Everybody here talking about the fact that the OL and the NO run game are the main reasons about all this lately mess. Yes of course, there are issues… on offense, because the D is playing pretty damn well.. but when you play a garbage team like the Jags and you are a SB favourite or contender at least, if you have a bad day that happens sometime, it’s enough play with grit, effort, desire and wilderness in your eyes, with this spirit, that you destroy that garbage team without any problem.
On opposite side, if you play soft in this league, you can be beat up hardly from a garbage team like the Jags, because at the end those players also are pro level players.
So, dear coach McD that i really like, stop saying that “they wanted it more than us” after an embarassing loss like this one, but let your guys know very clear what is really needed at first to win games of football.

The problem is that the division wasn't the goal. Their stated goal was the #1 seed, and now it's all but gone.
Correct. On every part.

The real question here is "Why did the Jags want it more ??" and "Why were they more ready to play ???"
Isn't it McD's job to make sure the Bills want it more and have the Bills more ready to play ???
It should be, of course. I don’t think he does it the major of the times.

Mcdermott isnt going to publicly out anyone. I bet Daboll and the offensive staff had a rough morning. Gotta find a run game. Help out the tackles with formations. Play the game your in.
I agree. It’s ok have the back of your staff and players.. but sometimes you have to make very clear what you don’t want to see anymore.
About the run game i always liked Moss, less Motor, but they are not elite and not helped by the OL.Of course something has to happen.. we can not let Allen being hunted every game and without using some play action and slants to faster his release avoiding the pressure.

One thing I have never liked about McD's bills teams is they don't seem gritty. This is why I also hate how this team is built in the trenches on both sides of the ball.
A gritty team certainly pulls out the win yesteday but instead there was too much clapping on the sideline and very questionable coaching decisions like not accepting a holding call and giving away 3 points that ended up being the difference of the game.
That’s my point: in a game like that you can’t just stay there clapping instead eat the player’s heads for their poor performance.
-
Im not calling for McD’s head… i just said i wish to see his frustration his rage after a horrible performance like yesterday. We can not lose with a 1-6 team in that way.. 6 points against one of the worst defensive team in the league, are you kidding me ? And i remember very well all the prediction about the score here in the Wall…. raise his hands who tought it was a risky and dificult game, com’on !
-
Ok, let me tell you something: i can’t believe he’s talking about take care of football, about “They wanted it more”, about “They were ready to play” etc etc etc … the only thing that really matter is HOW IS POSSIBLE THAT WE SHOWED UP WITHOUT ANY FIRE AND WILL TO DESTROY A 1-6 TEAM, REGARDLESS A UGLY OL.
You know… beside the Bills unfortunately i love the Knicks also… so i’m used to this type of performance, no hearth and no respect for the best fans in the world at all !
5-3 … com’on… i’m sure that the same Bills with Mike Tomlin at the head would be 7-1 just because his grit.

Just a hunch, but I’m not sure Allen is efficient enough on the slant route to incorporate on it on a consistent basis...because I’ve been wondering, too, why we haven’t been seeing it...and if Allen was good at it, you would think they would use it...
Allen is perfect from slant routes.. and slantes scheme could avoid the first problem this team has: OL !

One thing we've heard preached over and over with this HC/GM is 'culture'. It's why they made an ill advised decision to 'run it back' in the offseason bringing back pretty much the same team that was smashed by the Chiefs in the championship game instead of letting certain players walk/get released and replace them with other options. It's also why many buffalo media speculated that that Beane didn't want to make any trades of note last week brining in players from outside the organization because of the apparently lockeroom lovefest with this team.
But this may be the issue and based on some of the postgame comments from the Jaguars that they noticed the Bills sideline didn't seem to care or have much interest in the game. Obviously it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know this based on the sheer amount of penalties and you have to wonder if this team had any real practice last week or was just busy taking selfies and playing on instagram on their phones.
It's one thing for a team to be complacent if they are coming off a championship season, but this team has done nothing of note other than win a division title once in 25 years. They aren't the Chiefs, Brady Pats teams or anything close the 90 Bills despite claims otherwise.
Therefore if I'm Beane/McDermott I release someone (obvious candidate is Cody Ford) and send a message that the results on the field aren't nearly good enough and expected by this team if they truly aspire for greatness. The time for accountability is now before things spiral out of control quickly. They may anyway given the lack of talent in key areas of this roster, but at least you try to right the ship by making a bold move or two.

Ok, i totally agree with the attitude this team is laking of since few weeks.
Don’t know if the worst part is the lack of effort, the coaching or the quality of the players.. i really don’t …Im sure about the fact that right now the idenitity of the team is not at the contender level.
McD: are you coaching or just watching games from sideline ?
Because the only important decision you made, it was a win-win situation.Remember what one im referring at ?

Without play action to pull linebackers out of position you aren't going to find a lot of room for slants against those defenses.
Exactly.. another issue is the very few play action this offense does. Why ? Maybe having a very bad OL like we do, the best thing would be to use our backs together like blockers to give Allen more time.

They were in 2 deep most of the time so the LBs are sitting on those underneath routes. They only went cover 0 occasionally, usually on 3rd and long.
I agree with you but i insist that with WR like Bease, Diggs and Sanders that can separate very quickly in short yardage, Josh could fire darts on every play without any problem.
I can not believe that they don’t consider this option but keep on looking for long ones or run the middle when our OL is absolutely not good enough. -
I really can not understand why we do not play more fast slant routes that a QB like Josh could hit easily for gains of 5, 6 or 7 yards almost every pass. This is really a mistery to me, mostly because our ugly OL.

Exactly: stop using Allen only for long passes and start getting the 10 yards with the three downs… not within one !
What about “Two backs maybe the solution ?”
