Dabol got exposed by Spagnola as being the beneficiary of a transcendent talent at QB to pull great plays out of his rear end. He was unimaginative and borderline unprepared for blitz packages and tight press coverage on receivers that were injured but playing. I'm sure teams that passed on him feel prophetic.

Josh had a great season no doubt about it, but when the big game comes he choked. I feel like Josh's mentality is more of Alex Zverev and not that of Djokovic (Tennis Fans). When the "No tomorrow" situation comes, he DOESNT leave it all on the field. We squeaked by the colts, without johnson INT vs the ravens, we would of scored ten points total. Unacceptable. This is my big concern. How does someone work on nerves? I was joking with my dad during the game last night he needs to take a shot of whiskey to calm the nerves, but obviously the dude does not have ice water in his veins which is something a QB needs. So what are the solutions? Sports Phych? Yoga?
Great knee-jerk reaction to the Bills getting smoked by a better team. Did Josh field a team that had no viable running back? Did Josh let Hill and Kelce set records for receptions and yardage. Did Josh decide to play Davis and Smoke, who limped through that game getting no separation. Finally, are you blaming Josh for O-lineman letting free runners bury our QB with no adjustments in blocking schemes. Sean, Dabol, Frazier and Beane were the guys that cost us the game,not our 3rd yr QB.

Edmunds is almost mind boggling to me. Hyde, Lorax , Kyle etc have all said he's special and I believe Hyde said he'll be in the hall of fame and meant it.
His size n speed is rare but I'm seriously worried he's gonna be JAG .
But , he was great vs Baltimore and a huge reason we were so dominant.
Like you said, inconsistent.
Frustrating player, he could be a difference maker like that monster White on Tampa.

Edmunds is so inconsistent. Either he's a sideline to sideline tackling machine or he gets fooled on every play and is nowhere to be found, like last night. Oliver is solid but not spectacular and certainly not a pressure up the middle game changer. These guys are still on rookie contracts, if they want it they can be much better. Let's see if they want to be the players we need them to be to get where we want to go.

They have a lot of speed but how long can you expect White to look overwhelmed covering Hill? Frazier and Sean failed to handle the Kelce/Hill ability to wreck the game. The soft zone was laughable and the Chiefs took Edmunds and Milano out of the game. Sean knows he was outcoached badly, and going forward he must add speed and physicality if he wants to beat KC.

Daboll had a rough night and so did Frazier. The free runners at Josh all game was not helpful and why was there no crossers. At some point , you have to make adjustments in blocking schemes instead of asking your franchise QB to avoid constant pressure. Dabol didn't help his resume with this pedestrian game plan.

Using a third round pick on a RB is like using a first round pick on a WR. It ain’t that hard. To whiff twice in a row on those picks is ....concerning.
Moss was somewhat of a short yardage, inside bruiser, but at best he projects as a compliment to an explosive feature back.

It’s unfortunate because we’ve used two high draft picks on RBs in the past two drafts and we have nothing to show for it—and it’s an easy position to scout and draft.
I thought Devin had a chance to be good, but he regressed badly. If he can't even block, he's useless.

RB and d-lineman is a must and more physical style lbs in the image of the Bucs lb corp.

Great run for a fun team. I'm proud that my kids and grandkids are Bills fans. Future is very bright but KC will pay for those late hits on Josh when the game was out of reach.

He's soft, and has lost confidence. We can't go into another year with him as a lead back. He can't break tackles and doesn't distinguish himself in the passing game. We need to draft a runner.

I can’t name any coach whose ever gone from player to HC with nothing in between and I agree it seems risky. But on the other hand, I can name 5000 failed HC’s who worked their way up through the system and had the perfect resume. It’s all a matter of perspective.
As for Desauns desire for EB- They can’t hire someone just for the sake of what the QB wants. He’s either right or he’s not.
Dont get me wrong- I’m not defending the Texans decision making process. They’re seemingly led by idiots. I just hate the narrative that the only reason EB is getting passed over time and again is cause of his melanin count.
I can't disagree.

Just now, whatdrought said:
The fact that you have to emphasize the race of either candidate is a fatal flaw. Hire the best person for the job. It’s not hard. If that’s EB, so be it. But don’t assume it isn’t Josh McCown because he doesn’t have coaching experience. Again- there is no “minimum qualifications” section on a nfl HC job posting. This isn’t Indeed or Monster.I understand your argument about choosing a candidate by virtue of race is flawed, but in the context of the Texans job and McCown, why disrespect your top 5, star QB, who wanted EB, for an unproven, inexperienced explayer..Sorry, there is a learning curve with successful coaches. Name a successful coach who has never coached as a position coach, coordinator or college coach.

Again- under the overwatch of a hall of fame offensive genius. It’s on EB to demonstrate that he is more than a tag-along. So far, multiple teams have decided he isn’t as impressive as the media hype. Including the Jets, who hired a different black guy. The EB love and putting him as the poster child of this issue is stupid because it completely ignores the possibility that EB might just not be as good a candidate as everyone seems to believe.
Furthermore, there is no magic recipe for what makes a great HC. It’s assuming unknown information to say McCown is less qualified than EB because there is no list of qualifications for being an NFL HC. Resume’s do not define people and leaders.
All these teams that passed on him have dysfunctional resumes themselves. I'm not sold on EB, I just see the advantage in a scenario where 70%of the crew is black and the guy is endorsed by your star QB and the top rated QB in football, over a journeyman, unspectacular white QB with no coaching experience.

The more I read and research about his off field troubles and arrests this has to be the reason teams are not hiring him... I had no idea about his past and it doesn’t look good. Out of curiosity is there any other head coach in the NFL (basically a CEO of a major Corp) with a similar history?
Haven't heard this, but if true it's troubling , when selecting the face of your franchise.

You seem to love the “EB is a suffering face of minority coaches who are being screwed” narrative that the media is all over these days- but you should be sure to get the basics right. He doesn’t call plays. That’s done by a little known guy named Andy Reid. You can look him up in canton in a few years.He may not call the plays, my mistake, but he certainly has a big role in putting together the game plan for an iconic offense and is well respected by the premier QB in football. What has McCown done beside being pedestrian for his career?

Someone posted this link a couple of weeks, maybe this is the reason these teams haven’t hired him? On the football field his resume speaks for itself, one of the top young coordinators. I was reading on the Houston boards and it looks like his past might be a concern. Who knows, very strange....I'm hearing from reluctant NFL insiders, that his interviews are less than stellar. Head coach demand more than OC but he still deserves a shot over the likes of McCown.

If McCown gets this job over Bienemy something is seriously wrong. Eric is the playcaller for a juggernaut team and McCown never coached in the NFL. Houston fans should March in protest if McNair thumbs his nose at a great fanbase.

Has he cleared the toe protocol? The Bills have to play their most physical game of the year. Edwards-Helaire and Mahomes must be hit with bad intentions every opportunity. Take Hill away and stop the Jetsweeps and gadget plays and the Bills can dominate. KCs defense is beatable. Whatever happens, I love this team and we will be right there for 10 big ones.
-
Great news for Ravens opponents. This gasbag is the key to bringing a good defense back to mediocrity. He did as much as he could to kill our defense in concert with brother Rex.
-
Milano has to be effective this week as a run stuffer and a spy on Mahomes. MVP on defense is more Edmunds, Taron and White. Butler, Jefferson and Phillips have played their best football of the season.
-
Trent should be part of the rotation. He's fresh, experienced and knows how to set an edge.

The Bills played really disciplined football. Only TWO penalties -- I can't remember a game with that few. Tough, responsible plays, with everyone doing their jobs.
What they've shown is that they can win in many different ways. Shoot outs, tough physical games, it doesn't matter.
One things is for sure. I have been wearing the same sweatshirt for the past 8 games and I'm not going to stop. It's a Wicked sweatshirt I bought when we saw the stage play. I washed it this week as a favor to the Missus but it still has its magical power. And I think the Bills are wicked good, as they'd say in Boston.
Me too and I'm afraid to wash it for fear it lose the luck.
My reasons for the loss.

Unprepared coaches and poor defensive game planning , receivers who shouldn't have played and a running back that has been so timid and disappointing after a promising rookie year. The problems started in the Indie game and after getting past 2 teams that weren't in KCs class , we were made aware of deficiencies that must be fixed. Coaching and personnel.
