    Coleman was not my choice for our WR pick. Contrary to many I’ve liked what I have seen a lot. He may not ever be your classic #1 receiver but I think he will eventually be a major cog in the passing game. Boldin was never a legit #1 receiver. That was Larry Fitz. But Boldin was a force and one of the best skill position players in the league. What i’ve seen strongly suggests to me that Coleman is fast enough to play on the outside. He's also versatile as a big slot. He is likely going to be a very good and useful piece. He needs to fill out and refine his route running but surely that is to be expected with most rookie college wideouts not named Malik Nabers. Again hes not Marvin Harrison nor a more desirable talent than any of the WRs who went before him in the draft (except maybe Worthy) but still a good pick imo.

     

    Maybe, but that's not what lots of other people are seeing. 

     

    His long TD yesterday was almost entirely YAC.

     

    From most accounts, he's had trouble separating. 

     

    We shall see.  All I know is that the loud rant here was that losing Diggs & Davis was addition by subtraction, but that's obviously not the case. 

     

    No one, absolutely no one is defending or WR corps.  

     

    He's also got a 56% catch rate so far, which is horrific for a short-medium type WR.

    Well that’s what a day like yesterday will do to your average. It’s really hard to believe just how epically bad yesterday’s performance truly was. The worst in THIRTY YEARS by any quarterback….and it was indoors for heaven’s sake! 

     

    Everything goes according to the law-of-averages to a certain extent. 

     

    As a team over the first four games or starting field position was at the 40, tops in the league and 8 yards better than what the season leader typically is.  So it's an odd on bet that it would come down drastically. 

     

    Conversely, that's also what for games against crappy defenses will do to an average(s).

    ESPN reports that Josh’s completion percentage was the lowest for any QB with 30 attempts in the last THIRTY YEARS. I mean…..yikes! 

     

    Overall, his passing yards, complete. %, and passing TDs are pretty closely mirroring his 2019 starts, they're on pace for being only marginally better.

    Why we keep floundering with our OC's and not bring in a competent person is beyond me. 

    And if it's McD who has the final say on who our OC's are, then how can you ever take him seriously when we have all seen his terrible decision-making skills.

     

    Who else would have final say over who his OC is.  

     

    Think about that though, why do you think that he hasn't hired a competent OC?

     

    Consider that he and Daboll butted heads, why was that? 

     

    Do you really think that Brady's going to lock horns with him? 

     

    It's on record that McD tells his OCs what he wants.  Some simply don't want to believe that he exercises that degree of control, when it's obvious that he does.  

     

    Again, people can believe whatever they want to, but it's obvious what's going on, ... in the name of Complimentary Football and McD's definition of it.  

     

    Our first five games of this season have produced the same record as our first five games of last season, against worse teams and with notably worse offensive metrics.  

     

    On a side note, how many times do we need to have notoriously poor clock management, in rookie error form, to cost us the biggest of games, before we start asking the tough question.  

     

    Some now say just make the playoffs then it's a new season, but what in the name of Complimentary Football does anyone think will change in the postseason.

  5. Getting to the postseason isn't all that matters, it's winning in it. 

     

    The way we playing there no way we even win a wildcard game this time. 

     

    We're in the same exact position that we were in last season at this time except that our offense hasn't played nearly as well through five games.

    Why are we hiring somebody that needs to learn on the job to the extent where we can use that to justify poor performance? He was a coordinator for the Panthers for two years as well. Just not an excuse. 

     

    He was actually an OC for a season and a half, he was fired midway through his second season there.

    I watched with my 16 year old, and he was like it's 1st down, here comes the run again. Painfully predictable. Even with Trubisky in, I would of liked to have seen a quick pass. Where is Knox? Why not throw a WR screen to Coleman. A big WR, who has a chance to break a tackle. This offense is fundamentally broken right now.

     

    Now now! 

     

    It's Complimentary Football by McD.

     

    Otherwise known as trying to shove a square peg into a round hole. 

     

    He'll figure out out sooner or later.  They typically do.  Might take him another for our five seasons though.  Let The Process play out.

    Thank you!! U r so spot on.  So sick of the bills stupid little catch phrases every year. It’s like ea sports marketing their madden game.

     

    Sick of the changing offensive MO every season when we've been releasing offensively throughout McD's watch.

    Aren’t we tho? Draft an undersized (another term for always at risk for injury) at LB, a rotational DE, an undersized DT, a 4th string WR, another DB, and gotta get another RB in there, because the league cares about running the ball anymore. 
     

    that should sum up their roster strategy 

     

    I meant between the two. 

     

    Who's really calling the shots.  

  10. Changing offensive schemes every season and a half can't be helping. 

     

    Either way, this is what McD wanted in terms of schemes, and he's got two coordinators that are in no position to argue with him.

    They sucked in the first half. They came back in the 2nd half. No other teams in the division can match the Bills. We're fine. 

     

    They are? 

     

    They're in the same spot that they were last season at 3-2 except that they haven't played as well on either side. 

     

    That's fine? 

     

    Now video of our offense is out there, which should be significant since we've generated a mere 30 offensive points in two games, an average of 15 per, and an average of 256 yards in our last two games. 

     

    That seems like an overly optimistic take.

    For the entire time McDermott has been here, there are certain games where he seems to quit early.  Last week was one. Today is one. This looks like the type of game we will punt from the opponents 45 yard line during the second half. 

     

    3-0 against patsies 

     

    0-2 against contenders  

     

    Pretty much says it all.

    Not sure I disagreed with you earlier, but things are working now because defenses stepping up, Josh Allen settled down and we're opening up the field

     

    No, you didn't.  Just adding detail.  

     

    It's better now, but again, not because of coaching.  Because of Allen.  It's important to make that distinction.  

     

  14. 7 minutes ago, Comebackkid said:

    That small ball mentality kills us. Not saying it doesn't have its place but consistently it does more harm than good

     

    Not when you have Allen.  Let's not forget, Allen was touted for his big arm, the biggest in the league, and his "ability to make any throw." 

     

    Then we stick him into a short-yardage passing game and game manager role?  Idiocy, pure idiocy.  

     

    Note, the only reason why things are clicking now is not because of Brady, it's because Allen's taking control, but that's not what McD wants.  

     

    It's also not how we win a championship, with no support from anyone else.
