Both. Just an awful mix. Look at Brown and Dawkins just doing nothing.

Brady’s WR screens are the most frustrating plays i’ve ever seen the Bills run ever.

There is a very speculative but highly believed rumor that Daboll tried to take McDermott’s job after 13 seconds. Literally petitioned Pegula. He is not coming back (though I wish he was).

There’s nothing the coaches can do about the WR’s. Beane did not sign/trade for any high quality WR’s in the offseason and he didnt do so at the deadline either. As for the play calls and route trees, yes - I do not think Brady is a good play caller. I was saying it all last year too while we were scoring a lot of points. @GunnerBill and I discussed how much I disliked his play calling because I foresaw how it would stop working against good teams and how he calls the same plays every week. He is utterly predictable. As for McDermott, It’s truly inexplicable how he continues to allow it to happen. But if you don’t want to believe me, perhaps you will believe a former NFL wide receiver who echoes exactly what I said.

Louder for the people in the back.

I can’t wait express to everyone enough how bad it was. Allen had NO CHANCE all night.

Allen. Is. NOT. The. Issue. In. Any. Way.

Brady; Best I can do is another WR screen.

Zero respect for our receivers. Single high, stacked inside the sticks They KNOW we had no-one who could gain any separation.

Former NFL wide receiver reiterating what I said the opening post. “(Bills) wide receivers got OWNED” When I said Sunday they were blanketed; they were BLANKETED.

I would have said this question was ridiculous at the start of the season. I recognize that this is pure conjecture, but Allen genuinely doesn’t seem happy. And I understand how difficult (and perhaps unfair) that is to infer form facial expressions on television, but there is a clear delineation between his attitude the past 7 years and this year. He just looks… down. Apathetic. Zero fire. If I were to hazard a guess straight of my (bleep), I would say he doesn’t care to relive groundhog day again.

Agree. If Gabe had caught that, this game goes down as “Allen magic” once again. Instead you have Allen haters coming out of the woodwork.

No, they don’t. Not when all of their receiving options are blanketed.

No. You don’t do this when the receiver is blanketed.

Ah yes, the old “QB should throw the ball on his 3rd step whether a receiving option is open or not”. Wonderful idea. Interceptions surely won’t come from that brilliant suggestion.

Yeah this is essentially McD saying “this is not Allen’s fault”.

He did it several times yesterday. Allen is desperately trying to make something happen and Dawkins decides to give up halfway through the play.

Agreed. And to be clear, it was a mix of long developing routes and mesh concepts where we ran receivers underneath where the Texans appear to have known our exact plays and routes. It was hard to watch. This. We are running the EXACT same plays every week. One example of this that any law person can see if the WR screens.

For future GENERAL reference for everyone: SEEING AN OPEN PERSON ON THE FIELD DOES NOT MEAN ANYTHING WITHOUT CONTEXT. Read that bolded section over and over again. 1) The QB goes through progressions. The open receiver is often open AFTER the QB passes him in the progression. 2) Many plays are designed to get certain people open - like Palmer. That’s what happened on this play. And Allen was pressured making him unable to move on.

It’s incredible how people start these posts and have no idea… 1) As BuffaloBillyG said, due to OPI it wouldn’t have counted anyway. 2) Palmer was who the play was designed for. He was the bread the whole way. Knox was supposed to set a pick for Palmer to get free but he was just a step too late.

That play was designed to go to Palmer. He was the read the whole way. Knox was supposed to set a pick for Palmer but he was a step too slow getting there. Not to mention it wouldn’t have counted due to Gabe’s OPI.

You are wiser than I.

You’re talking to an Allen hater.

Throw them open? How does a QB throw a WR open when the defense is running the route for them? You’re asking him to throw interceptions.
