Regardless the Defense or where McD has made his mark has let the team down over and over. Three games ended with the defense on the field.
They should have lost to the Giants as well - only avoided it due to a missed DPI. And they came so close to allowing another Hail Mary against the Bucs.
Unless the offense gives them a double digit lead for the final drive, the defense cannot cope, that much is true. And we've seen that with key components available so it isn't just down to injuries.

And he's a defensive oach lol. D played solid to be fair , considering their injuries but ya i hate that mentality
McDermott's defense chokes in clutch situations. Always has, seemingly always will. The offense is opposite at the moment - only turns up in clutch situations, which can be a case of too little too late.

Three losses on defense & special teams. Jets, NE & Denver...... But don't foget the "Process"....
Josh has to take a huge the blame for Jets. Yesterday was a mess from the offense all round. If they played to just an average level we would have won both.
The Pats... yeah, how they allowed them to get to 29 was a joke.

It will take blowout losses by the class A teams (Philly, Dallas, KC) and then probably another fluke loss to the Jets or Patriots to wake Pegula from his ambivalence. But that’s how I see it playing out eventually. He will have no choice once this season ends.
The way I feel now beating the Jets will be a fluke. The only game left I think the Bills should win is against the Pats.

I don't want to watch the highlights. Could've sworn both ints were off their hands. But as I've said before, I'm drinking especially for night games. lol
I know the feeling? From memory Davis had both hands on the ball. The Harty interception was all Josh. He did not make Cook fumble in the 1st. Kincaid's was off the hands but was more than catchable. And Murray and Diggs' drops were dimes, but that is from memory.

To be fair the 2 picks were on Davis/Kincaid. Gotta catch those
The second pick was on Josh - it was a ball out to Harty.
When the QB is struggling, a team needs coaching and players to come up trumps and bring their A game. Dorsey abandoned the running game too often. Cook came close but had a killer fumble. Davis dropped. Murray dropped. Kincaid dropped. Diggs dropped. Josh is having issues but he's not being helped out by anyone around him, who are also making bad errors. How many times to we see receivers for other teams make astounding catches by reaching for the ball or when it's being contested? This lot can't even hold on to one which is straight into their hands.

This loss was all on the players. It's not McDermott's fault that the only hope left in the game was that the Donkeys would miss a field goal. Picks, drops, and fumbles are not the coach's fault, sorry. This isn't Pop Warner.
Taking Cook off the field for three offensive series when he was the most potent offensive threat isn't down to the players. Blitzing on 3 and 10 out of FG range when the Broncos had just seen the move isn't the players. Constantly slowing down the tempo on offense when uptempo is key isn't the players. Abandoning the run game when it's working isn't the players. Not being able to count to twelve after a timeout goes beyond the players. Turning up looking unfocused and unprepared each week goes beyond the players.

That’s a rarity so it’s really hard to put any blame on him
Feels like he's dropped a catch every game this season. That's compared to Cook, who fumbled for the first time in 27 and was promptly benched for almost an entire quarter.
When the QB is struggling, WR1 is a key component to help. The dropped catch didn't do that, and led to a bad play afterwards. He isn't the major issue, but all if the drops and fumbles on offence add up.

While I don't fault Ken Dorsey for Allens poor decisions on the football field. What you say is true because Dorsey doesn't have the balls to chew Allen out.
Well put Zag20...
Or he doesn’t chew Josh out on the right way to get his head straight? Instead, he’s sent him into a tailspin.-

Does anyone think Allen prepares for games? He looks like *****. Guy doesn't train at all. Hollywood Allen sucks
I’m pretty certain he trains and prepares. Do you honestly think he enjoys press conference after press conference asking why he looks rubbish?Then again, if the HC absolves himself of all responsibility why should any of the players take it on their shoulders?

He worked like a crazy person in the off-season to improve early in his career.
I was surprised to hear him say that and assumed he was just exaggerating
He did up to the pre-season just gone IIRC. I thought he perhaps decided he needed to get completely away from football after the psychological mess of last season (Araiza, supermarket shooting, trapped in Chicago, Damar) and could understand it at the time. In hindsight, it can be seen as a mistake. The upcoming post season is key - let’s see what he does with it. -

I’ve been saying this all year, Diggs knew the coaches wouldn’t hold anyone (especially Allen) accountable for their work and he was pissed. Just goes to show, he was right.

Diggs is hardly blameless tonight - he dropped a simple catch himself.-

Pats game Allen also left the field with the lead and less than 2 minutes left. Then McDermott’s defense gives up a game winning TD drive to Mac Jones, one of the worst offenses in the NFL.
Don’t forget the Giants, where only a missed DPI let them off the hook.-

Easy Josh slides at the 1’ line, it’s now on Denver to call a TO. Let them use it. As it stands Cam Lewis gets injured and they get a free TO. If we failed at the 1’ line we still have 3 TOs to stop Denver.
If they fail at the one yard line, they give the ball back to Denver to flip field position, at the very least, so instead of having an opportunity to lead by one, the Bills would be at least six down and in their own half of the field with less time remaining. -

Im sorry, I have no respect for a guy who dogs it out there and who can’t hang on to a simple slant in the red zone, then won’t even own up for it.
Except running the ball was the correct game plan today and he refused to do it.
Plus the question of why the Bills keep abandoning the fast tempo offense which works. I wonder if it was his decision to keep Cook off the field until midway through the second quarter after the fumble?I won’t be crying if Dorsey goes, but only if it’s alongside McDermott. If they cut Dorsey and keep McDermott them the same issues will keep on happening.
-
I have more faith in Dorsey than McDermott now, purely because of his “score too fast” comment. McDermott will try and have the offense under even more of a leash than it is now and, as it is, it’s a mess.

A lot of fans remember the "Dallas Monday NIght" game. The Cincy playoff game is kind of the "snow game."
The loss to the Pats at OP last year was the Wind Game, wasn’t it?-

I am not done with McD and Beane just yet. They are a package deal and just got extensions. Finding a good GM is tough and there are worse coaches. Besides Marv is to old.
I'd say he is on a short leash for next year. He will need to get a new offensive coordinator and hire a defensive coordinator. I get it, the defense has been diminished by injury. Davis isn't the #2 they thought he would be.
I am not carrying water for the team, it's just how I see it
On the "bright" side, there is no where to go but up.
I’d keep Beane - I think he is a decent GM. Both him and McDermott have a direct line to Pegula can axe the latter without involving the former. And that’s what he should do.-

With that response is ANYONE still confused about what the heck is wrong with the offense right now? Not only do they have to score, they have to do it in the ‘right’ way. And, despite no huddle, uptempo play working this season, it has to be abandoned because they may score too fast.
Please, McDermott, do everyone a favo(u)r and resign.

McDermott is a joke. OK, there were execution errors out there where, if one didn’t happen, the Bills would have won. But…
- Who kept Cook off the field for three offensive series after the fumble?
- Who abandoned the run game despite it working more than the pass?
- Why was the offense so low tempo for all drives but three? Oh, guess which ones they scored from
- Who called the ridiculous blitz at 3 and 10 with the Broncos out of FG range?
- Is there no one on the coaching staff who can count to twelve after a timeout?
McDermott has to go before the Jets. I’d actually give Dorsey more time, but they need someone on Josh’s wavelength in the locker room.
I don’t want to edit the original post but every player looks unfocused and on edge coming out onto the field. I wondered what was the issue with preparation but, after McDermott’s ridiculous press conference, I sort of understand. Feels like a fear of failure is creating failure, and that comes from the top.-

Josh Allen 177 yards and 2 INTs

At this stage, I'm concerned it might be something more serious and more difficult to get over than the flu. Hope it's issue changing the coaches will solve but worried it's deeper than that.
