McDermott is coaching for his job now. If it is anything like how he handles high pressure game situations, it isn’t going to be pretty.

Tell that to P. Manning, Brees and Stafford.

The Sabres have better odds of making the playoffs than the Bills right now.

O game plan should have been more run heavy considering the Broncos have a terrible run defense and we were churning out yards. Same for the Bengals game the week prior (Motor just tore them up this week). One of Dorsey’s problems was he would just run his offense and think that should be enough.

Tomlin jokes around a lot more. McDermott is always such a sourpuss.

That math isn’t mathing for me. Doesn’t every game decided by one score or less have both a winner and a loser? How could the entire league minus two teams have a losing record in such games?

We also had 12 men on the field last year vs the Vikings, it just didn’t get called. Coaches are not good.

Is 7-10 good enough to make the playoffs? Because that is what our record is going to be.

It’s implied

I don’t have a specific example, but I really doubt that’s true. A lot of trash QBs all over the league throwing away games every week. Burrow had a historically bad 3-4 first games this year, so how about him? Lamar Jackson gave the game away to the Browns this week with a pick 6. Mahomes gifted the Dolphins a sack fumble last week that led to a TD. I think we just have very high expectations for Allen (rightfully so).

Best case scenario would have been incomplete pass. Shouldn’t have been a fumble because his butt hit.

They will save firing Dorsey until the off-season. That way he can be the scapegoat and this can be their “move” to make everything better for 2024. If they fire him during the season they will have already played that card. After next season they will be out of scape goats.

This is spot on. Next season is going to be a reset, and the goal will be fighting and clawing for a wild card spot. The roster is going to be rough, and we will not be the more talented team most weeks.

Defense is going to be gutted next season. We are already over the cap and… Defensive lineman signed for next year: - Von Miller (big question mark) - Ed Oliver - Kingsley Jonathan And then we have our secondary… - Tre White, cut candidate - Poyer, cut candidate - Elam, healthy scratch - Benford - Douglas - Taron Johnson - Siran Neal - Hamlin, cut candidate So we will have one DT, possibly zero starting DE depending on Miller, zero safeties, and zero CB depth behind Douglas and Benford. On offense Gabe Davis will probably walk. Morse may retire, but we can probably plug in Bates there. Top three picks might be defense just to get warm bodies to put on the field. Also we went offense top two picks last year.

Do they really think people are going to shell out tens of thousands of dollars for private seat licenses for a 7-10 team? Pegula needs to get people excited somehow. Funding the new stadium depends on it.

Roster is in trouble next year. I could see Gabe, Morse, Hyde, Poyer, and Tre White all gone. Phillips, Lawson, AJ Epenesa I think are FA. Von Miller is totally ineffective right now to the point where he isn’t even making tackles. Who knows how he’ll be next year. And we’re already going to be over the cap. Missing a bunch of starters we need to replace. Hate to say it, but it might be a “re-tool” year to eat some dead cap and hope for the best.

It’s possible that the coaching has failed to develop and use what he’s brought in, but his track record doesn’t look great in hindsight. A lot of draft busts, a lot of bad/failed FA signings. I’m not even talking about Miller which has failed pretty bad (but that was a calculated risk and we got burned).

Johnson is a slot corner. He’s no match for Jeudy going up the field like that. He had to be ready for the quick slant for a first down, which was a much more likely play to be completed based on the defense. That would have allowed the Broncos to get it in FG range and spike it.

One moment I haven’t seen commented on was Epenesa missing the strip sack on the first cover zero blitz. He rushed on the blind side and Wilson had no idea he was about to be hit and the ball was just hanging out there. A tiny bit more awareness and he could have popped it out no problem.

He got good pressure, but would overshoot his target every time. Wilson is slippery I guess!

That rumor was never actually true. Funny enough, Donald Trump made it up to try to make himself seem more appealing as a bidder for the team. Pretty wild!

I’m kind of at the place where I think we need to fire McDermott and possibly Beane as well. However, they both just got extensions this off-season and the internet says McDermott’s is for 4 years at $8.5m per. Ouch! Might make it harder to fire him.

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.

There are 2 important stats in football. Points per drive on offense. Points given up per drive on defense. Score as many points per drive as possible and try to get as many drives as possible. McDermott is miles behind what KC has for their coaches.

Allen will have like the 10th biggest QB cap hit after a couple more guys sign this off-season. As of now it will be the 7th highest cap hit. Drafting has killed us.
