There's a Damar Hamlin conspiracy theory on Twitter right now
Lost replied to JerseyBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
I actually like Poso and enjoy some of his insights but this is a horrendous take by him. -
RB over OL or WR??
-
I'm amazed at how many fans still want us to go after yet another RB for an offense that doesn't want to run the ball 🤪

Well it's true, but we have to ask ourselves how we ended up with so many glaring holes at this point? Take away Diggs and Allen, this team is probably a sub .500 team. Our talent evaluation has been a mess the last few years not to mention constantly wasting cap space on rotational/situational players. Our number 1 draft pick cornerback saw less than 50% defensive snaps this year. Our 2nd round draft pick running back less than 25% offensive snaps. Did we even need an RB2 or RB3(Hines)? We clearly didn't even put much emphasis on running the ball this season. Quoting @MAJBobby from another thread here because he summed it up well. "Was clear they wanted a Pass Catching RB. Continued that obsession at the trade deadline. So who was driving that desire? Dorsey? Beane? McD? Allen? I doubt it as McD or Allen so that is on Beane and Dorsey. So here were those plays? There was no screens, the angle routes and Cook out of the backfield routes we hear so much about in the offseason where not there. Some of that could have been on Allen not taking the easier throw, but again lets get to offensive design, if that was wanted SO MUCH. Why were there not plays designed for the RB to be the first read??" Another instance. Wanting that TE2 again they prioritized a second pass catching TE in the offseason, Morris beats out Howard this offseason with the 2 TE sets, earns the spot and then those plays nonexistent. So the two priorities (that I can only think Dorsey wanted) were addressed, then the season comes and we get a poor mans Brian Daboll offense" The Bills have targeted a lot of situational players and then never really utilized them(Crowder, Cook, Hines, Man coverage DB in Elam when they want to play zone. These our problems created from the top down in my opinion and unless change starts happening at the top, it's just going to be more of the same. -

The loss itself was not painful for me but the realization that the next year or two are going to be worse. Last year was our year, this year was our year. We're not going to have too many years left where Josh Allen can take control of a game with his legs alone. Diggs is going to be 30 next year. Those two basically propped this team up on their own. We need major changes in offensive/defensive scheme, talent evaluation etc. This management and coaching staff is too tightly knit for me to expect any real change at this point. I don't see Pegula firing Beane, I dont see Beane firing McD, I don't See McD firing Dorsey or Frazier. Long story short. I don't see change coming fast enough to not squander the prime years of the talent we do have in the process. Hope they prove me wrong. -
To be fair. Josh Allen didn't seem to be spitting fire the way he was against the chiefs in last year's divisional round so I will agree with you on that. Overall though the loss yesterday seemed to fall more on coaching and team building than anything. Years of misused draft picks is starting to show it's ugly face. There's no other explanation for such an ugly physical mismatch on both lines.

Who are you rooting for next week? Cincy or KC?
Lost replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
Hoping we See Cincy vs 49ers in SuperBowl. Rooting for 49ers to win it. -
I think the biggest mistake of the game was not taking the opening kickoff before field conditions worsened. Had the Bills got the ball and marched down the field first and scored it might have boosted the morale of the team enough to make the game more competitive.

McBeane's investment in the D Line last five seasons
Lost replied to Process's topic in The Stadium Wall
Groot has shown flashes but when we have speed edge guys like him and von vs. a QB like Burrow or Brady who simply step up in the pocket they just spend most the game just blowing right by QB, especially when the guys in the middle are getting no push. -
These divisional games overall have been so underwhelming compared to last year when they were all down to the wire.
