    There are a lot of problems on this team. And unfortunately, Josh Allen is one of them.

     

    He just doesn't seem to have the same preparation, focus, intensity, energy as he has in the past. Some of that is the moronic coaching of trying to rein him in too far. Some of it is probably injury making it harder to do all of that while constantly rehabbing, being in pain, etc. But some of it is definitely that I just don't see the effort from him. Maybe it's his personal life. Maybe it's just who he is. But it's a problem. 

     

    I think Josh's overconfidence in his abilities makes him believe he can do it without putting in the extra work.

    How do you know he's not holding himself accountable?   What do you want him to do?  Publicly fire himself?  Do you quit your job when you make a mistake at work to hold yourself accountable?  

     

    Every evening, I hold up a mirror to myself and conduct what the army calls an "After Action Review."  I ask myself four questions.  What did I do right today?  What could have I done better?  What did I learn?  And what will I do differently going forward?    I don't discuss this with anyone.  This is my personal process to hold myself accountable and grow.  Maybe McD does something like this.  None of us know how McD holds himself accountable.  

     

     

    Yes..

  3. I'd like to add some thoughts to this thread.

     

    1.  Josh had a few throws that were off and the one INT was a dumb decision.  But despite his bad play he was still one of the three best performing players on O last night.  There were drive killing drops being spread all around from Davis, to Kincaid and even Diggs.   

     

    2.  My thought is players perform better when they are enjoying the game but it sure seems like they are not and that goes back to coaching in my eyes.  McD has lost this locker room and the fan base.   

     

    3. While the D performed admirably I still thought the playcalling was garbage on that side of the ball.  It seemed like we were blitzing on nearly 50% of snaps and got zero sacks from blitz until the last drive.   And when we finally did get that sack to put them out of field goal range, we did a cover 0 blitz again the very next play.   Like why??

     

    4.  The bills have an over pursuing problem on defense.  Our edge rushers were blowing past Wilson by like 5 yards on every damn play.  I don't see other teams edge rushers do this as much as the Billls do.  Just seems weird.

     

    5. Benching cook for nearly a quarter of play is a complete D-bag move by McD especially when nobody else was equally punished for poor execution.  His fumble was more of a good play by the defender than an egregious mishandling of the ball.  

     

    6.  Many will say "why are calling for the firing of the coaching staff when Allen deserves his share of blame as well.  Answer:  we have seen Allen at his peak and when he is in that space, he is no question the best QB in the league.  Unfortunately we haven't really seen much of that Allen since Dabol left.   When was the last time we've seen Dorsey or McD calling plays and said "wow, this might be the greatest coach we've ever seen"?   This staff has somehow broken Allen.  

     

    7.  After the benching of Cook in the first half and the slow downward trajectory of Allen, I got back to thinking about Kaiir Elam.   The guy they traded up for in the first round in 2022 and arguably played pretty good in the snaps he played last season is somehow now such a liability to this defense that he had to be placed on IR this season.   Something about this coaching staff seems to shatter peoples confidence to me because I refuse to believe Elam could have regressed that much for a reason other than poor coaching.  

     

    8.  Fire McDermott.

     

    9. Fire Dorsey.

    i actually don’t know what people expected him to do. The front 4 can no longer generate pressure without DaQuon and Oliver both commanding tons of attention. He had to send guys.

     

    Id rather see them only rush 3, bring in an extra safety spy or LB than to keep blitzing.   They just arent getting home ever so its completely pointless.  Especially against QBs who get rid of the ball quickly like Burrow.  Even Mac Jones was getting rid of the ball in 2.5 seconds or less vs. us.
